Anyhow… I’m not doing politics on here. Back to the match… Staying away from discussing politics is a very wise move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every other League moves games to give players enough rest between games. Funny how Wrexham and Torquay's games are both on Wednesday, but our game and Woking's are still on Tuesday. Can see a few "tired" tackles going in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is that? It was their cup final. No seriously I don't know. But the problem probably lies within our organisation rather than the solution lying within their organisation.

Red Adair Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Well folks, not sure about this one. On one hand we’ve played 10 at home this season and won all 10, but I’ve got a feeling Parky will mix it up a bit and play fringe players to get minutes in their legs for more important stuff. Banana skin incoming. A sell out crowd, I believe. Not bad for a televised game with a 12.30 ko on a Sunday. Safe travels to all who are coming down.

To paraphrase the great Daniel Kitson: people don't go round wanting to have their minds changed. It's a weird viewpoint to have though, that an inability to see the difference between political parties is a sign of maturity. Mullen was just virtue signalling...... Virtue Signalling - the action or practice of publicly expressing opinions or sentiments intended to demonstrate one's good character or the moral correctness of one's position on a particular issue.

Virtue signalling is generally accepted as making a declaration in a social or political context and as far as I'm aware wearing a poppy doesn't have any political connotations attached to it.

I should've been more specific, perhaps the signalling of people who are not wearing a poppy on TV - or maybe those poppy orientated decals that people stick to the back of the caravans. I think virtue signalling is also the act of bringing to public attention those who do not display a suffiencient level of expected (subjective) support to something.

Lags Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 I always thought the wearing of a poppy was a mark of respect for those that gave their lives for the freedoms we still enjoy. Whilst raising money for an organisation that still supports old or younger injured service man and women. My head hurts reading the deep intellectual true meaning.
