It's just a forum, mate. You don't need to read every single post, or get your knickers in a twist about somebody going a bit off-topic. When you get to page 13 of a thread, the chances of it remaining on-topic tend to be pretty slim.

If the mods want to set up a new thread in the non-footy forum, that's fine by me.


If I am interested in seeing how B Corp will benefit my club, I should be able to go to a ‘footy’ section forum and read about it.
Not see a pissing contest between left and right yet again.  
And the job of the mods is to moderate ( clue is in the job title mate).  This should have been moved already !!
If you want to gob off about your political beliefs, go Ona political website and knock yourself out.  I am interested in how B corp will affect GTFC.  I’m not interested in the slightest in your opinions otherwise !!

The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Just wait until Grimsby Town achieve B Corp accreditation. The 14 pages of arguments will be nothing compared to that. I look forward to seeing people conclude that the sales of John McAtee and Kamil Conteh got spent on keeping up with this woke scheme.

To try bring it back on topic, does anyone know what USG are doing that we aren't from a B Corp perspective?

If nothing else, this thread illustrates perfectly what happens to the Fishy when we only have one game in the space of 24 days.

Honestly, just ignore posts which are OT. It's easier than having a rant, better for the blood pressure and will take you less time as well.

By page 13, I don't think there is much more to say about our application to get B Corp accreditation. I'd imagine it will be some months down the line before the process moves on too much.

We'll then have the usual to and fro between the naysayers and those who think it a decent idea.

It is interesting to hear that not only are all the economic textbooks incorrect, but a couple of thousand universities around the world have been teaching economics students false information for many decades.

Have you thought about letting them all know they are wrong? Obviously, you'll need to explain to thousands of professors and other academics why this is the case and also explain why all the empirical data shows the multiplier effect actually works. Can you start here and explain to us why there is no such thing as the multiplier effect? What you've already posted doesn't show this, it shows you misunderstand fiscal multipliers.

You'll need to contact all the national banks to explain that they are incorrect as well. Bank of England, ECB, the Fed, Bundesbank and so forth.

Want to know something which will really blow your mind? All money is nothing but government debt, at least since fiat currencies came into existence, and governments can create as much of it as they want. When a politician says we can't afford something, they aren't telling the truth. It might not be worthwhile to spend the money into existence, but it is certainly possible.

Oh, and banks don't lend out reserves. When you get a loan/mortgage, the banks create the money at the stroke of a key. They don't need to borrow it from anywhere. They just create it.


To play "Devils Advocate" , for thousands of years it was believed and taught that the world was flat and the world of medicine was based on the Hippocratic Theory of the 4 Humours. Just because something is generally taught then that doesn't necessarily mean it is correct or accurate.
