    Seems that Cleverley got a straight red....hopefully we'll find out sometime what for.

    I think the first penalty was harsh but the Edwards sending off and the second penalty were unarguable.

    Hell of a goal from Ibrahim. Nicked the ball of a defender on the edge of the box, good feet to get it in he right position and a smart finish.

    What a terrible away kit.....white shirt with "pink" shorts....or so it looked on the GoS photo's.

    Maybe it phases out the opposition and give us an advantage.....:emoticon-0178-rock:.

    Note also the skin colour. Thoughts? Nobody in the ground has a problem and you're looking at possibly our best group of players so far. Thoughts?

    Frustration from a Tory voter who oddly hates discrimination.

    Trump visit next week. Shaking sweaty porky hands with the King. God knows where they've been.

    Racist riots in London. The flag abused in the land of democracy, Drowned immigrant children. Trump. Farage.

    Where are Churchill. JFK and RFK and Obama? Even George W. receiving the ultimate horror story.

    upload_2025-9-14_23-34-17.jpeg

    And I'm a Tory voter.

    Pink shorts? who's got anything against pink shorts? Don't answer that.

    God knows I like wearing pink underwear.

    Is that clear?

    So Brendan Wiredu's collision with a Luton player was a penalty as was Matty Sorinola holding one of theirs at a Luton corner but this, at an Argyle corner shortly afterwards, wasn't.

    The ref BTW is just off to the left with a clear view of it.

    We have a habit of conceeding penalties this season doing nothing different to that of the opposition. Perhaps the colour of our strip makes us stand out more than who we are playing. I hadn't thought of that till now. We had a pen given against for exactly the above with Sorinola never mind Wiredu's elbow attack.

    Calm down notdistant before you burst something. Despite form I'm not sure anyone was referencing the players. We have had black players for years now and mainly the stupid remarks have stopped. There will always be one though like the moron who messaged Weridu and you will never stop that.

    Just remembered a funny story from years back in the RN when was on Her Maj's Ship Hecate and we were visiting Oslo for a weekend break from Surveying the Oceans. We had one black bloke onboard AB Roberts who originated from Trinidad and was an ex school teacher there. We were in a bar almost as a ship company so about 50+ or us. He was ironically sat with an on loan sailor from South Africa who was training with us in the days of Aparthied. Half a dozen locals thought it was a good idea to gob off at Robbie as he stood out in the crowd. It got to a point where the words were way out of line and they were threatening to kick his head in. 50+ blokes stood up and invited them to leave voluntarily if they still wanted to walk out. The silence as the door shut behind them rapidly was delightful. The 50+ even included the South African. He was really sound. We could take the proverbial out of him but he was one of us and nobody else could. The same applied at Argyle once when one of our supporters got gobby to one of our own players who was black. The crowd turned on him and he left rapidly. I stood in the same place every game and never saw him again after that.

    Sorry to hear that, although not surprised. It gets worse rather than better.

    Well its getting worse each week, not just her but some her friends, had some mooron giving it large in a car the other day to her on the roundabout at Derriford.
    Pity i wasnt in the van with her. But unfortunately he was beside her and the dash cam never picked it up, she takes no notice but it hurts. he wasnt young by all accounts either. It wont go away for anyone.
