No shit, Sherlock :D

Seeing them next Thursday. This time at the indoor arena now renamed Unity Arena, which isn't exactly known for great sound, so not ideal. Last time I saw them was at Oslo Spektrum which is a smaller arena (around 6000, Maiden played there on the Early Days tour). That place has much better...

So, today is the draw of the 2026 World Cup. And the announcement of the very first Fifa peace prize ... Wonder who the nominees are. As for the draw itself, I expect a long-winded and not very easy-to-follow procedure, considering all the different constraints to the draw: - Top four FIFA...

Again, US are suggesting that Ukraine accept a peace about as solid as the Munich treaty of 1938 proved to be for Czechoslovakia. Giving Putler all he could hope for. And following his tail-wagging for MBS, Trump is again showing that the only leaders he respects are dictators.

Decided to watch Scotland vs Denmark and did not regret it. What a game! All the way from McTominay's brilliant 1-0 a few minutes in, to the full drama of the last 15 minutes. Now let's see the mysterious ways of the UEFA play-offs, where Sweden will have a chance to qualify despite winning...

Wow. After the 4-1 win against Estonia on Thursday we knew that only an absurd result could see Italy rob us of the spot in the World Cup - we would have to lose 9-0 which was of course not going to happen. Or ...? Italy did, as one could expect, take the initiative early and the most paranoid...

Not sure whether to post here or in football thread. FIFA will set up a peace prize. The first one will be awarded at the upcoming draw of the 2026 World Cup. Guess who will get that?

Thar video actually played a part in getting me hooked on Maiden back in ... 2004?

Shall we keep the fires burning Shall we keep the flames alight Should we try to remember What is wrong and what is right?

Will be used whenever you play some Sabaton, I assume :D

But would she do that if he hadn't been constantly whining about not getting it himself? Something I've not heard anyone do before. It is quite unique that one of the world leaders is (or appears to be) completely obsessed with getting the prize. It does obviously hurt him on a personal level...

Now that Trump has secured peace in the Middle East (cough, cough ...), what's next on his agenda? Ending the war between Oceania and Eurasia? :ninja:

Pretty unusual that they announce two dates like that and have not settled which one they will play first? As I'm not too excited about the other headliners announced today for Tons of Rock (Bring Me The Horizon and Limp Bizkit), I was thinking about getting tickets for only Wednesday (for...

If someone living in the US right now thinks that something called neo-Marxism is the biggest threat to their society right now ... may God, Allah, Vishnu, Odin and the Flying Spaghetti Monster all have mercy on their soul.

Another huge win for Norway, albeit against one of the weaker teams in Europe. If it comes down to goal difference between us and Italy, this sure helps. I can't help but think that the one time the Norwegian men's team did really well in an international tournament was the 1936 Olympics ... in...

Ditto.

The efforts to distract from the Epstein case continue. Your next president now says that all major conflicts ultimately end with some kind of negotiation. Yes, including WW2. Well, he's right if we count discussions about the wording of the unconditional surrender Keitel signed in May 1945.

Apparently Trump has given Alaska back to Russia? At least he said he was going to Russia this week to meet Putin. Congratulations again, USA.

Thanks all :cheers:

I see. Guess I was fooled by the fact the first paragraph in your post was all about Nicko.
