Land of the easily fooled.

I feel rather sad when I see the world today, everyone is so quick to blame some poor sap for all your ills instead of taking any responsibility, and it doesn't help when you have groups like UKIP and Nigel Farage in politics spreading more lies. He believe the EU and immigrants are the sources of all your problems, and what really frightens mean is that there are actual human being out there who believe his BS!

People are so poor and desperate that they are willing to believe anything. The free papers have a way of whipping up hysteria. or have you already forgotten about how the thought Bulgarians were going to invade us and were coming here to be on welfare!! I mean who even believe that rubbish, the main thing people have to remember is that there is a reason why they have to give these "newspapers" for free at train stations! They're full of headline that have no real world relevance.

Most of these fast food places that people over here enjoy so much are full of immigrant workers, and why?? Because they're are cheap and that's what the west thrives on- or God forbid, you might have to pay full price for something!! And don't forget about cleaner, you really think people from here will clean up your mess; they wont even clean up their own!

And  has anyone even stopped to think about why he is so adamant about leaving the EU? No one has really stopped and question his motives, and this is what really bemuses me, everyone is just so quick to follow the person who is shouting the loudest without really understanding it. I agree that the EU is a flawed system, but it is worth having some rule of law or you'll end up like your cousins across the pond.

Is we leave the EU we will be the biggest losers and the corporations and the banks will end up running everything ( even more then they already do). They'll be able to pollute our air and water without a seconds hesitation because there is no longer any kind of oversight or penalties for them, only profits to be made.


What people don't realize is that he wont help you he'll just help the multi- national corporations, because in the end that's what he really care about- PROFIT INSTEAD OF PEOPLE!

Now ask yourself do you really want to be screwed like this?

Napoli V Juventus

Well, we all saw this coming. For the last few games at least they were riding their luck and only Andrea Pirlo's free- kick and the ever enthusiastic Carlos Tevez came to the rescue! But when Pirlo was muzzled for large portions of the game and Tevez wasn't their they showed a little weak, which Napoli had the quality and " killer instinct" to capitalise on. Fernando Llorente had a poor game as his touch was poor at times, it may be tiredness but I think " The Lion King" has forgotten how to roar as he has become slightly reliant on passing the ball to Tevez and seeing him score.

 I think this over reliance on Tevez may be affecting Llorente. Antonio Conte must not fall into the trap of depending on one player, yes Vucinic did make a difference when he came on but Juve were still not showing that killer instinct and were giving away possession too easily. Arturo Vidal had a particularly bad game. Injuries have tied Conte's hands which means he is forced to play basically the same starting 11 for each game, and as we have seen recently, this will take its toll. But as Gigi Buffon said how they react to this defeat will tell us whether they are champions.

  FINO ALLA FINE, FORZA JUVENTUS!

Save today.... Pay tomorrow

People in this country have this obsession with get things cheap,from food, clothes and even labor. No one wants to pay the real price. But do you know what happens with having this type of mindset??? You end up getting screwed either you end up getting shit workers or you end up getting a fake product sold to you instead; like the horse meat scandal that everyone has so conveniently decided to forget!

People were so accustomed to getting cheap food that no one ever questioned as to why it was so cheap. It was cheap because it wasn't meat that was meant for human consumption! You must understand that real meat is never that cheap, in certain fast food chains ( that will remain unnamed but you know who they are!) you can get a fillet of fish for 99p because the actual product they are selling you is probably 0.00001% actual fish, so all theses companies should be charged with fraud because they have been guilty of advertising their products under false pretenses.

Just forget about the financial cost, just think about your health. The fact that the number of obese people and the rise in cancers has come to no shock for me- I mean what did you people think would happen after you put toxic "food" in you system??!!

It saddens me that people are so obsessed with getting cheap products that they have no thought as to why they are so cheap. Last year a building in Bangladesh killed over 500 people, and why?? Because people in the west didn't want to pay full price for the jean, and the cost cutting had to come from somewhere, so it meant that the factory had no health and safety and as a result people died.

Why are people so cheap in the ( supposed) richest part if the world?


Democracy is not in fashion....

Totalitarian or dictatorship is. I've just read a rather disturbing article about how the British Government are threatening to shut down the Guardian newspaper over the Snowden leaks. If this doesn't tell about where you stand in the scheme of things I don't know what will. Britain is silencing our methods of getting any valued information.

What did Edward Snowden really tell us? He told us that we are being spied on constantly and even when we believe our data is secure, they're not! He basically told us where we are in the food chain; and that basically rock bottom if our own Government is restricting our movement by constantly keeping tabs on us.

This has just confirmed my beliefs; this is not a democratic country, how can it be when journalist are being threatened, whistle-blowers are being criminalized and we are constantly being kept in the dark. How can this be a democracy when we aren't allowed to have all the facts?

Europe- Don't let it slip away!

Juventus versus Fiorentina This was always going to be a heated match but one would assume Juve would be fired up more, given the fact that the final is going to be played at the Juventus stadium.

 The fans were as passionate as ever and the choreography was as beautiful as ever. Juventus started very well with a goal in the first three minutes by Arturo Vidal yet they could finish it them. A whole host of missed chances and near misses were to continue into the second half.

 When Fernando Llorente came on for Giovinco the play from Juve go a little predictive and La Viola did well to defend against the attacking play from Juventus. But as the sencond half wore on a sliver of complacency started to seep into their game and the side from Turin were showing the same attitude as they did on Sunday against the same opposition, but whereas Juve were able to snatch a win on Sunday, they were held to a costly draw on Thursday.

 The side from Florence brought on there own giant and in the 79th minute Mario Gomez had equalized. Not only did he equalize but he got the vital away goal meaning that Fiorentina are now in the driving seat for the second leg. But hope is not lost as I'm sure Antonio Conte will do what he can yo press upon the players just how important this competion has become- not just for Juve fans but fans of the Italian game. It's time to show these " critics" that Italy should be feared and respected.


 FINO ALLA FINE. FORZA JUVENTUS!

Juventus V Fiorentina

The only team that have beaten Juve, and they didn't just beat the Bianconeri.. They humiliated them! In their first meeting of the season Juve were strolling to yet another victory, but they were doing just that- strolling, they believed that it was all over after two first half goals, they then started to show their arrogance and complacency and were rightly punished for it.

 The then went down in spectacular fashion, they lost by 4 goals scored within twenty minutes. This slap in the face was a good thing for Juve as it taught them to never let their guard down because the game is never won in the first half alone, you must concentrate for the whole 90 minutes. The first half was played with the usual high tempo that one would expect from Juventus and the Viola were restricted and throughout the game they were forced to take their shots from long- range, none of which troubled Gigi Buffon.

 Asamoah finally made the breakthrough and Juve were on their way to a 14th home victory, I'm glad to sat that they did sit on this advantage till the closing stages and held on to this victory. The game on the pitch was professional by Juve however their behaviour off it was slightly cheeky and they may get punished for it in the Europa League where they will meet the side from Florence again. Forza Juventus!

Are we there yet?!

Some people still refuse to believe!!!!

Milan V Juventus

This game may not be called the "derby of Italy", but some would claim that it should. Juventus may be the most successful club in Italy with 31 Scudetti- depending on who you speak to! However Milan have gotten greater success in Europe with 7 Champions League titles. The Milanese may have lost some shine of late but that definitely didn't show on Sunday night! They were fired up for this game as they caused Juve all sorts of trouble.

Juventus were forced to surrender a huge bulk of the possession throughout the game and spent a huge amount of time on the defensive. The star players for Juve like Paul Pogba, Andrea Pirlo amd even the " dynamic duo" of Carlos Tevez and Fernando Llorente were kept quiet for long periods of the game.

Milan could only muzzle these players for so long, and whereas Milan didn't take their chance, Llorente and Tevez did.

The game may have ended 2-0 in favour of the team from Turin, but one does think about how it could've ended if the enigmatic Mario Balotelli was on and Gigi Buffon was not as sharpe as he was and made a mistake as there are some people who think that he may be past his prime. His performance during Sunday's game surely would silence those critics.

One thing is for

sure, Juve did it the hard way without Arturo Vidal- and that should be a thing to think about for Antonio Conte.
