Recently there have been a number of high profile football matches stopped due to medical emergencies in the crowd. Is it happening more often, is there a conspiracy. Time for a thread..... 🧵

@LeeParfitt58058 @GaryRWard Robbie Keane may have been getting success in poorer leagues. But Harry has been at Gala bingo for a decade.

@LeeParfitt58058 @GaryRWard He hasn't managed for 10 years, and his last stint at Birmingham was a disaster. Starting to think Robbie Keane is the best option.

Lmfao gotcha. So you're actually just a disingenuous retard who can't read any of what I've written but is still trying to argue against it. I wish you would've shown sooner that the conversation is this far above your head. I already explained the fact that costs would go up in the short term, come down in the long term, and why. What part of that argument says "prices aren't linked".

Millions of people are carrying on their everyday lives, totally unaware of what's about to hit them. If Trump blows up Iran's power stations, Iran will destroy energy infrastructure across the Gulf. This would be one of the major "before-and-after" events of human history.

@ArizonaRanger03 @owenjonesjourno Quite simple really. US oil prices are coupled to international prices. Global shortages push up oil prices. US consumers pay more, agriculture costs more. Food goes up, petrol goes up, bills go up. Inflation. Economy is affected. It has happened and is happening.

The economy isn't separate from the rest of life you realize that yes? What are the practical effects domestically of the situation you've just described? You think the government does nothing indefinitely, we all go poor, can't move around and the country collapses? What is your actual argument here bud?

@ArizonaRanger03 @owenjonesjourno Ok. So US oil prices are coupled to international prices. You now accept that? But US consumers, businesses and the economy are insulated from any economic shocks of rising oil prices. You think this is also correct? Either US prices go up they don't. Which is it?

@ArizonaRanger03 @owenjonesjourno So the local guy is selling at $2 and you're buying for $1 from middle East. When Middle East oil supply is disrupted, the government will sell oil domestically for $1? And instead of just selling internationally at $3, domestic producers will just drop their price to $1??

I buy middle eastern oil because middle eastern guy sells at $1. Local guy sells at $2 so I don't buy from him. That's where the politics come in buddy boy. If middle eastern oil supplier is no longer available and I'm forced to buy domestically from $2 guy; my costs will increase in the short term. My costs increase too much I screech to the gov. The government then says ok $2 guy - we're going to release our oil reserves at $1 to undercut your product cost and $2 guy can't compete unless he drops prices. The real drawback is the fact that we've curtailed our own gas production for green energy investment. So it's not sustainable indefinitely. What do we do then? We can do any number of things. We can enact consumer protection policies that force oil producers to curtail their domestic pricing. We can basically force the rest of the world to buy American oil at a premium. We can normalize relations with Russia and start purchasing or allowing for Europe to purchase Russian oil to drive global prices down. Whether or not our government will use its tools effectively to deal with this isn't the same question as whether the global economy will be destroyed by this. Factually it will not be. Oil will continue to flow and prices will stabilize. History shows this repeatedly.

@ArizonaRanger03 @owenjonesjourno US oil prices are not intrinsically coupled to global prices? It's just that Brent Crude and Western Texas Intermediate prices have correlated exactly since 1992, entirely by coincidence?

@ArizonaRanger03 @owenjonesjourno Since I'm the idiot, let me try and understand your basic premise. When global oil prices are $70, US producers sell globally at $70. When global oil prices are $120, US producers will choose to sell their oil domestically at $70? Are you familiar with arbitrage?

@ArizonaRanger03 @owenjonesjourno I can't write an essay in reply, because I don't pay for Twitter. Your starting premise is basically true but you've leaped to false simplified conclusions. Supply security is improved since 1973 and can smooth disruptions but pricing remains coupled to global oil prices.

My guy. The reserve is in place to defeat stagflation and massive price shocks. You're acting like we've never dealt with oil issues before and that's stupidly naive. The system we have today was built around being choked of oil by another nation. Oil at $4 is costly and with compounding costs in other areas hurts American consumers sure. It's also not oil crisis prices where we'd deploy the strategic reserve. Yes, we participate in the global economy and prices are based on a variety of factors. Such as, the fact that we're an oil producer. The countries on earth that pay the most for oil are countries that cannot produce oil and are forced to pay for it. We are not one of those nations anymore. We buy foreign oil because it's cheap and because foreign governments need to keep oil cheap for the world to continue to interact with them in spite of flagrant humans rights violations and other shit the world pretends to care about. Play this out at scale. Iran can't produce or export, the gulf states have hampered exports due to the war, etc. Which countries pay more and which countries pay less? Which countries produce more and which countries produce less? You can try to overcomplicate this all you want but the short term effects are the product of a shifting world order. People needing to figure out, in the short term, where their oil is coming from when their usual source is disrupted. Once that problem is solved guess what else stablizes? Prices.

@ArizonaRanger03 @owenjonesjourno The steps taken since 1973 help with shortages but not price shocks. You're trying to oversimplify a globally traded commodity. We have evidence for this already. If US is insulated from global energy prices, why did US crude oil spike 50% when the Ukraine-Russia war began?

@ShelfSideGresh @owenjonesjourno This is factually incorrect. Go look at what happened when Saudi Arabia embargoed us and how we responded. The steps we took are to prevent exactly what you're describing.

@ArizonaRanger03 @owenjonesjourno US consuner oil prices are fully tied to global prices. US business les and consumers would face the same issues as counties globally. The ooil companies would benefit, the US economy would see a severe shock and stagnation.

This is a take from someone who thinks all the world's oil is in the Middle East. We don't even buy their oil. We're an oil producer. While the price of oil is high the country as a whole is making money and the dollar is stronger. Iran could destroy whatever it wants over there and it'll hurt oil prices in the short term because we start exporting more of it. In the long term it's irrelevant to anyone who isn't in Europe or China or who otherwise resides in a nation that buys gulf state oil.

@matthayesthfc The club don't let people sell their season ticket seats before the match sells out. Why would they? Will open if/when the match sells out.

Tottenham are the only club in the world that would sack their manager after winning a European final and then go on to sell the goalscorer from that winning final later on in the year

@stuart_holmes1 @adamtranter Just guessing, but the new highway code already gives priority to pedestrians crossing on side roads. So without the crossing or with it, the vehicle user turning off the main road would be at fault.

This new non-compliant zebra (without Belishas) has popped up 100m from Department for Transport HQ, meaning ministers & civil servants will use it daily. Some councils are frustrated with the time it has taken Gov to consider a change in regs, so have seemingly done it anyway.

@LoveTheShirt This system is unsustainable in the end isn't it? We could have conceded at least 3 goals in the first half. We are way to open and our left and right back aren't really good at defending are they?

@larterlia1874 @Kearney_music @style_kacey99 @KieranMaguire We've had empty seats this season due to silly prices. I don't think there is a huge advantage to being in London. In fact it's a massive disadvantage when it comes to things like developing stadiums. It's hard work, but growing organically is the right thing to do.
