@Sjopinion10 What happened when you owned Crystal Palace, I need a reminder? 🤔

Oh dear Martin ffs Did I say that old Keown lacks objectivity. f@@k me backwards, he is the grand frommage of bias.

@BBCMOTD Laughable considering he is a NFL player, where replays looked at by the booth delay the game way longer than the average VAR check.

A 60-second limit? ⏱️ Burnley co-owner JJ Watt wants a shake-up to the VAR system.

@CFCMJordan Haha 🤣🤣🤣 cry more!! Also, maybe have a look at the terrorist football Mourinho played at Chelsea…?

Arsenal and their fans actually believe we don't like them because we fear them. When Man City won 5 out of 6 Premier League titles, we all respected them. We all feared them. Respect = fear. Not dislike. When Liverpool won the PL under Klopp and consistently challenged for it, we all largely respected them. Both of these sides were genuinely good football teams. They were playing free flowing, entertaining football, scoring goals and creating chances while allowing world class individuals to shine. Man City with players like Agüero, David Silva, KdB, Bernardo, Sterling, Sané, Mahrez, Kompany and then eventually players like Haaland, Rodri, Foden and Alvarez etc. Liverpool with their unbelievable frontline of Mané, Salah and Firmino with players like TAA, Robertson, Diaz etc. Always playing with 100% intensity, always looking to score one more goal, always looking to entertain the fans. Again, we all respected these teams and that respect was given because we feared them – and we did so because they were genuinely good teams who played genuinely good football with genuinely good players. Not a soul respects Arsenal and what they are doing. They are not playing entertaining football, and in many cases they are literally not playing football at all. Wasting time, faking injuries, taking forever to restart play – be that from corners, free-kicks, goal kicks whatever. Constantly goes down too easy while looking more like WWE fighters when attacking/defending set-pieces. They are massively over-reliant on set-piece goals to open up games and all of their set-piece goals happen, not because of beautifully rehearsed variants but because they are allowed to do whatever they want in the box without being penalised for it. On top of all this, they act in the most unsporting and disgusting manner possible whenever they play. No class at all. Nobody will look back at this title win (and yes, they will win the title) with admiration in the future. They are literally only winning this title because they are meant to win it. They will not win it because they deserve to – they will win it because the Premier League has decided they will. This is why no one actually fears Arsenal. They are objectively not a TOP football team. If they were refereed like any other side in the league, they'd be scrambling for top 5. Nothing they do is sustainable in the long-run. They have no individual quality to fall back on. When literally every single person in football is OPENLY practically saying that Arsenal are cheating, boring and getting away with m*rder, it's time to actually look at yourselves and realize that YOU actually are the problem and not everyone else.

@ThomasD20956 @paddypower There are 9 games left for Utd, maybe check the facts before you post…🤦‍♂️

@paddypower There is still 10 games, if we won all 10 we would finish with 82 points. If City lose 5 games they would finish with 75 points and if Arsenal lost 5 games and draw 2 they would finish with 80 points

A lot of Man United fans quietly deleting all their "we can actually win the league" posts and messages tonight. You know who you are.

@luceishere_ Camping in a bush, shooting someone in the back, typical streamer!

Chat Told Me to Go on An Arc Raiders PvP RAMPAGE… So I Did 💀

@bethTmufc What about Greenwood!

It’s deeply concerning that Arteta continued to play him while being less than transparent about his absences. Some matters transcend football, and the fact that he continued to play is disgusting.

@SperanzaIntel Couldn’t have happened to a nicer rat streamer! Haha 🤣

What an emotional roller coaster 🤣🤣

@KayLFC05_ @charles_watts Cry more you wet blanket! Van Disney got away with 5 red cards for violent conduct last season. Where’s your “disgusting” comments on those incidents…?

@charles_watts Why’s he throwing the ball at Bradley’s head and kneeing him when he’s on the floor? I get pushing him off the pitch as he misread the situation, but the rest is still disgusting. If that happened to Saka or Saliba there would’ve been uproar.

All the fake Martinelli outrage is such rubbish. One of the only people who had every right to be very angry with what happened was Arne Slot, yet he's one of the few to speak really sensibly about the whole thing. Martinelli was stupid, he assessed the situation in completely the wrong way. He wasn't looking when the injury happened and he jumped to the wrong conclusion in the heat of the moment. It was a big mistake and he's quite rightly apologised to Bradley and publicly. But some of the stuff I've seen and heard today, my word. Just so over the top.

@LfcNuel Well for starters that is Anfield not the Emirates, and secondly you lost 2-1 at the Emirates the very next game!

Run it back few years ago when Liverpool beat Arsenal 5-1 at the Emirates. We might not be in form but when it comes to Arsenal we always win 😂😂

@CompaniesHouse Love the fact you just terminate a phone call because you don’t have the staff to answer them! Disgraceful service, just as bad as HMRC!

@JakeSucky Crying streamer who attacks everyone when their back is turned and also camps like a rat, moans when he gets killed by the same weapons he is using! Talk about being a hypocrite! Karma always gets the crying streamers in the end!

Trigger nades might be the worst thing to ever happen in ARC Raiders

@ArcRaiderAlerts Yeah whatever! Load of a BS!

ARC Raiders analyses player behaviour and uses an aggression based matchmaking, according to an Embark art director. Bloodthirsty players are put in more aggressive lobbies, while chill players mostly get less aggressive lobbies.

@MrNoelHumphrey @LBC @accountant_she Haha, suggest you research Class 4 NIC, as it might help you understand the tax position of a self-employed individual.

@mark_rookes @LBC @accountant_she Yet another silly question. Go and do your own research if you do not understand.

'How are we the ones being taxed more?' @accountant_she doesn't get why business owners face the 'burden' of the Budget.

@MrNoelHumphrey @LBC @accountant_she So ignore class 4 NIC for a self-employed person then, do you even know what class 4 NIC is?

@mark_rookes @LBC @accountant_she The discussion is around income tax. You have already deviated to Corporation tax and now to national insurance. You have totally lost the argument. Enough said.

@MrNoelHumphrey @LBC @accountant_she You can’t compare that, you compare total take home pay including the impact on CT. You are also ignoring NIC both employee and employer.

@mark_rookes @LBC @accountant_she That's not the discussion. A self employed person and a director have the same income. The director takes part of that income in dividends. They will pay less Income tax than the self employed on the same income. Now do you follow. Even with the rise it will be less be

@MrNoelHumphrey @LBC @accountant_she 🙄🙄🙄🙄 CT affects how much profit can be paid out as a dividend! That’s why it matters!

@mark_rookes @LBC @accountant_she I was comparing income tax between two people, one self employed and the other a director. You brought in Corporation tax. They are not the same. One is paid by individuals and the other is a company tax paid by the company. Totally different. You do not understand taxation.

@MrNoelHumphrey @LBC @accountant_she A company has to file statutory accounts at Companies House, and a file CS01, these are costs that a self-employed person doesn’t incur.

@MrNoelHumphrey @LBC @accountant_she The fact you asked why the dividend tax rate is lower than the tax rate for self-employed profits just proves after 41 years of being a owner you do not understand the taxation system. Overall tax burden for a company could be higher depending on the spilt of wages/dividends.

@MrNoelHumphrey @LBC @accountant_she I don’t know why you are continuing this thread Noel, you asked a silly question, I said you have forgotten about CT, and maybe you don’t understand a difference between self employed vs a company, but now you mention CJRS…🤷‍♂️. What point are you trying to make?

@mark_rookes @LBC @accountant_she I am a business owner, 41 years and counting. Why did so many directors complain during COVID that they were getting zero support from the government as they were taking dividends rather than salary. Plenty of small businesses who have a sole director. Keep up.
