Really? That is your take on what happened and why his account was revoked?

I don't think the generals would be too keen to follow that order.

But hey you're just trolling anyway.

It’s a serious question, IMHO.

There is a vast difference between Trump authorizing a pre-emptive strike on Iran and his responding to the launch of a tactical nuke by North Korea. Both unlikely, but an outside chance of the latter.

But both have more chance than Keates selecting Redmond to start on Saturday. He is too tall, has too much ability, but doesn’t run around like a headless chicken who is one tackle away from a straight Red.

Why do you think you can call someone an overweight dwarf ?

Would you insult him if he was black ?

I like Redmond but he's player who needs to be played in a certain way to get the most out of him.

Him, Jarvis and Davies are similar in that you can tell they've all been on the books of a Premier League-level academy (I know Stoke were relegated in Jarvis' case but he was there during their stint in the top flight) but Keates' tactics remind me of watching pub teams or Sunday league games where that style of play doesn't really fit. It's why a change in management needs to be a priority for R&R - it's all well and good having the talent but if they're not played to their strengths you may as well go for less talented players but whose strengths are hoofball.

We all know what needs to be done. Let’s just hope R&R are on the same wavelength.

.

And if you have players with effort but limited ability the same can be said.

Let's be honest though, if Redmond had put in half the effort of players Rutherford he'd have shown-up far better.

Who would win between a match of 11 Devonte Redmonds against 11 Paul Rutherfords...?

0 - 0 I reckon - DK would be pleased with that
