https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romani_genocide More than once I have been admonished by people talking about the "Holocaust" for asking which one they were referring to. Many people have the impression that the Nazis only targeted the Jews and do not realise that they were one of many groups that were deemed "inferior".. anybody visiting France that has the inclination to see something for themselves should visit Natzweiler in Alsace.. most people think all the extermination camps were in Eastern Europe, they are wrong.

Boro v Bristol City 2-1 (Ikpeazu, Crook)
Old Codger replied to Denzel Zanzibar's topic in Match Day Threads 2021/22 Season
Days like today make you realise that we don't do things the easy way, but I don't think it could be classed as hoofball.. for a while it was like watching the return of Stuart Ripley.. Get the ball, beat your man and put it in the middle. No fancy stuff, just keep to the basics .. was also very nice to see a striker break sweat and earn his pay. Djed looked a different player from last season and although for a few minutes they let City get back in, I think that we deserved the three points and there could a decent understanding already beginning between Crooks and Uche. Roll on Wednesday -

Calling people on here sensible is just not right.. some people just don't realise how much effort we put in to being witty and charming like DZ and CT .. they just assume that because Blanco is such a pessimist that we are all like him. If that word is used again, I think a lifetime ban should be given.. or something more permanent 🙂
