What I'm trying to say is in life we like to blame the government for everything. We see this all the time, people's own failings in life taken out on a particular government, because they make the easy fall guys, because politicians are greedy and selfish and squander and thieve our money. But sadly the people that elect those people aren't really much better, so I come to the conclusion it's a human trait. I include myself in that scorn as well. I often think if this country went to war, the people in it really wouldn't know what hit them, I wonder how some of them would even cope, no idea how I would cope, because being spoon fed most our lives makes us oblivious to reality, maybe we'd see skills we never knew we/they had. Think if I lived in Ukraine right now, with the freezing cold due to power all being knocked out, I'd lob myself off a bridge, but I suspect the fighter in me would rise above old age and excel in helping people who also can't cope. Helping others surive is the greatest motivation to keep going, and not giving up.
You need to post this over on GC, it will make a change from its all the government and brown peoples fault

It’s live on the Beeb website. Looks unnecessarily confusing.

Blue pathway, silver pathway bullshit

BBC:

You may hear talk about silver and blue pathways in today's Champions League draw - this is where it can get interesting for the five English sides that have made it straight through to the last 16.

None of those teams - Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham, Chelsea and Manchester City - will find out today who they will play in the last 16, nor will they find out which 'pathway' they are on.

But they will be able to check out which side of the draw - the silver or blue pathway - they might prefer. To avoid PSG? To avoid Real Madrid?

Half of today's knockout play-off ties will be placed on the silver pathway, and half will be on the blue pathway.

Sides on each pathway will not be able to meet until the final.

Those teams that finished in the top eight will be added to a pathway in a second draw, which will take place on 27 February, after the knockout play-offs have been completed.

Been a disaster for me that - guarantee that I sub or transfer out what would have been mega point scorer regularly <doh>

Im ummin and arrin about swapping Haaland but not sure for who and he’s due to turn it on sooner or later imo

Very happy with having a few Arsenal defenders in my team, they’ve been **** ever since I got them so will stick to them I think

200 points off top spot me
