Also wirtz played the 90 and subbed off to waste time so he's through it. Big night to night for hungary and Argentina
Maybe working for free in a tenement in Govan didnt appeal over his lifestyle at home with his drug dealer son in law. Who knows.
This is completely pathetic. Since Villa Park aren’t confident that Away fans from Israel will be kept safe, they’ve banned them from the stadium instead. Multiculturalism in Britain now means removing the victims instead of the culprits. Shame on you @AVFCOfficial
It sends a terrible message. It's probably more to do with the location, Birmingham, and the make up of the local population. The police have previous in how their response differs in different areas.
I thought the Maccabi supporters, including families and women, were attacked by Palestinian protesters who had nothing to do with the game.
I wasn't aware or didn't remember so I just looked it up. Apparently there was a call via Twitter to hunt down the Maccabi fans and to block the player's bus days before the game. Scooter gangs ran them down after the game. The Maccabi fans were filmed chanting and pulling down flags. Several fans, mostly Maccabi, were hospitalised. Pictures from the day look very violent. I don't excuse violence of any kind, it doesn't look any worse than what we've seen in Italy and Turkey on a regular basis. The hordes of Roma fans marching with swinging belt buckles attacking Liverpool fans when Sean Cox was left seriously injured. None of these clubs have had their fans banned from away games. It's a highly politicised situation not just football related but police should be able to cope. I think they are choosing not to upset one side.
That's the impression the mainstream media gave at the time.....it was only when I checked independent news sites that I found out that the Maccabi fans had sparked it off with violence in the city (attacking a Muslim taxi driver was one incident I remember). It was after that the Muslim crew fought back.
Grayzone are very good with Max Blumenthal.......mintpress news with Mnar Adley........Richard Medhurst.......Mother of all talkshows with Galloway. There are so many good journo's out there,once you've found one or two you find many more.
So I looked up each of those: The Grayzone - "is an American far left news website. Known for its sympathetic coverage of the Russian, Chinese and former Syrian governments. Described as fringe and known for focusing on misleading reporting and maintaining a pro-Kremlin editorial line" - Blumenthal stated in 2022 that The Grayzone receives funding from "private friends of mine who are progressive Americans who support progressive media". Mint press news - is an American far left news website. It supports the governments of Russia and Iran and opposes the governments of Israel and Saudi Arabia. It reports geopolitical events from an anti-Western perspective. The website has been accused of regularly publishing pro-Russian propaganda and has been described as a conspiratorial website by media studies and disinformation scholars. Richard Medhurst - The first reporter arrested under the Terrorism Act 2000. He writes for, amongst others, The New Arab, contributes to Iran's Press TV and Russia's state controlled RT television network. He's pro-Palestinian and outspoken about Israel's actions in Gaza. I think I'll steer well clear of these 'independent journalists".
Awful all round from Forest, getting rid of Nuno who was getting a limited squad to play to their strengths. Then bringing in Ange which was a mistake for two reasons: Firstly his style of play is poles apart from Nuno's so the squad are no longer playing to their strengths, but secondly the coverage around Forest was becoming more about Ange than Forest, which is fine as long as he's winning games Say what you want about the press, but Ange doesn't exactly help himself.
