The awful stink of Digital ID
at 13:39 3 Jun 2024

You don’t even seem to have grasped the point the experiment was making! Waves bounce when they hit something. In the experiment I set out the WiFi would have bounced off your walls and still given you a WiFi connection even though you had blocked the direct line of sight!
By the same logic of your EMF hat and the overhead WiFi boxes, the signal from the direct line of sight (if your hat works) would not hit the top of your head but it would still get at you from other angles.

I do understand how it works, you can’t convince nutters like yourself directly that what they are saying is crazy, we could argue about EMF for the rest of our lives I imagine, but I can point out to you the failure in the logic of people trying to sell you EMF hats (because even if we pretend EMF is a real thing the concept of the product is so flawed) in the hope that it makes you see that these people aren’t very intelligent as the product doesn’t achieve what it intends to and maybe it will make you start wondering as to what else they are lying to you about!

Fine, I’m an idiot, explain to me why the front of my head is far less susceptible than the back and therefore why a hat works instead of a balaclava.

Let’s do a science experiment, take your EMF hat, put it next (not on) to a WiFi box, stand 1 metre away from the side you have put the hat, do you still get WiFi? Now explain the above theory again on the basis of that experiment?

Sheep have a built in EMF hat so are now the most intelligent mammals on earth, horses have a very large surface area on their head hence very susceptible to EMF hence they have had the meeting.

If only the seller could respond to Amazon reviews, I would love to see the two nutters argue this one out “no you just also need to buy our EMF nostril plugs to stop the EMF going up your nostrils and hitting your brain from that angle.”
Honestly even if EMF was a thing how have these people never seen a photo of a skull (I guess their fear of internet reduces the amount they surf the net), the back of your skull is about the most protection our body affords to an organ! If they came up with an EMF face mask that would at least make more logical sense given the more obvious front entry points on the skull!

EMF resistant hats someone really saw you coming!

If you really believe WiFi is giving you headaches why not wear a full hazmat suit? Or are you under the impression the front of your head/rest of your body is able to take it?

Probably just moving into his Southampton house for his time off this summer, doesnt really prove anything either way as transfers get called off at the last minute so you wouldn’t start signing up for your local golf club until the transfer happened if it was indicative of a transfer move. We have seen Nick “cast iron” rumours on this subject before.

Do you actually read my responses or just get irate about a specific part? Firstly you have literally quoted “there is of course the chance”, I have said that I am grasping at straws with if Lumley knew or not, I wasn’t even the one noticing he got upset, just a theory. Secondly as I have said above, this wouldn’t have been a RM decision if it is correct, it would have come from above him - RM doesn’t care about the wage budget.

Grasping at straws is ironic from yourself, you are using a theory you don’t believe (not even using the theory correctly) to go after RM and I think we all remember someone that you used to bash every week with no logic behind it.

Multiple games of McCarthy shows him as 2nd choice was all clearly part of the plan. I did say (which you didn’t read) that an injury at any other time of the week would have just allowed RM to say that Lumley had not trained as well as McCarthy hence it was only the circumstance where he was already on the match lineup that created the catastrophic embarrassment.

There is of course the chance Lumley was already aware of this and his supposed reaction was embarrassment that there would be speculation about him staying the sub keeper/the chance he had not told family about this arrangement.

I think the main point though is that you are using this as a stick to beat RM, if it’s the financial side (which looks more and more likely given the team sheets) then it won’t be RM’s decision. I imagine RM cares about his winning ratio (and having the best bench to achieve this) more than SR having to spend more wages to achieve that but at the end of the day is an employee so has to pick his battles when told to cost save from above.

Yes it does still make sense to not start McCarthy in the cup because most seasons your first choice GK does not miss a league game for a long period, most seasons they might get a red or need to come off with a short term injury mid match. So you would want the guy actually on the bench ready to come on. You say nobody would do this but yet look at the current games starting keeper, once again McCarthy.

Actually it’s good management, what is the chances of a player getting injured in the warm-up? Like near to 0%. That is the only scenario where Lumley needs to find out. If it happens in an actual match then Lumley has to come on, if he plays badly - ready made excuse for switching for the next game, if not then just say McCarthy played better in training. Think about the odds of this happening if this was considered at the beginning of the season to save money, not after it happened.

Sorry I forget you wouldn’t know what a carve out clause is, no my point was that there would be a proviso for the unused substitute fee saying that it doesn’t apply to cup games. Otherwise teams would have to pay first GK’s to sit on the bench when they didn’t have a good enough 3rd keeper, which the player would accept during negotiations as it’s standard for main GK’s to make way in the cup)

It’s been coming up for 2 months since lumley played, not exactly match sharp. As I have said, Lumley probably wasn’t explained this logic until this week (wouldn’t make him very confident sitting on the bench needing to come on if he thought he was the third keeper but actually had to come on mid-game, probably thought they could fluff him with some bull about McCarthy looking more sharp if Bazunu was out for more than half a game). Let’s be honest if this was all discussed, it was probably seen as far more likely that Bazunu would go off mid-match than the actual situation.

Imagine they have a carve out clause for the cups, first team GK’s expect to be benched for the cup (at least earlier rounds) it’s the league where they expect to start but pretty usual to still see them on the bench.

Also I think you are forgetting Bazunu was also brought in as a first team keeper so probably would have the same clause

Not saying he can’t be on the bench, just saying it was probably expensive for him to be on the bench. Say it was an extra 5k (£230k a season) a game for him to sit on the bench so perhaps SR said well that just isn’t worth the risk, that’s a few hundred people buying tickets paid for the risk of Bazunu getting injured mid game or getting sent off. For that game if it did happen then send on Lumley and bring McCarthy in for the next game/games

I don’t know for certain, but it’s a normal contract condition (and you can see why for a GK, to stop them languishing on the bench at the peak of their career as it makes it less of a good financial decision for the club not to sell them, although McCarthy’s drop in value has not helped that with his good base wage). So it just seems logical as McCarthy hasn’t been getting that bench spot and yet jumped over Lumley for the starting spot. Also pretty weird the manager didn’t give a good reason, while this might be the sort of reason that he wouldn’t want to share with the fan base.

As I have said, it will be McCarthy’s unused substitute fee keeping him off the bench as risk of having him on the bench for a Bazunu injury or red card not deemed worthy of the cost for the sake of one game.

Players have appearance fees in their contracts and fees for being on the team sheet. Ridiculous thing with McCarthy’s good contract even though we are paying him a lot to do nothing someone has probably done the maths of paying him to warm the sub seats costs more than Lumley doing the same. Given later posters comments about Lumley not being impressed perhaps nobody had told him that is why he’s getting the subspot and thought he was there on merit of being the second best keeper until last night!

Breach of contract you sue the person that breached the contract, saints weren’t party to the contract so they couldn’t sue saints. Tapping up regulations aren’t the same as managers and players as managers can give notice.

What a crazy world - ISIS target Russia

Doubt it was based on the vote today, takes a while to come up with an armed gunman plot. Probably has more to do with the bad relations between Russia and ISIS given that Russia has such good relations with Syria and assisted them by carrying out air strikes on ISIS.
