Couldn’t name an Arsenal player if I tried. Not a club that I have ever particularly liked or had any interest in.

Bloke playing centre forward on Saturday? - scored a good goal tbf, although keeper shouldn't really get beaten at his near post like that ... struggling with his name ... oh wait, is he Welsh perhaps?

Dai Vinkunt ...

...or something similar ...

1.5m according to sky
I got thinking about this although the figure I saw was 1 million, and I related the same to the disturbances in Paris after PSG's win...

I feel it's the power of the internet, communications that we never use to have, hence why we see higher turnouts for the Arsenal parade but sadly why we see the trouble we do after games as well, due to the lunatic fringes of all faiths and colour.

I've also seen a rise in the number of incidents where kids storm a shop to either cause mayhem, trash it, or as several I've seen to steal from it.

I'm wondering at what point the governments will say enough is enough and they start shutting some social media down. I wonder if an incident like we saw in London recently with mobs of kids, if there is someway of shutting it down locally, by geographical location.

If I was in power, I certainly couldn't let it continue, and I think eventually a lot of these platforms will certainly be age restricted, but they need more robust processes than we've got at the moment.

Can't really believe I'm saying that, as I'm all for freedoms, it's either that or we start reintroducing the cricket bat and blackboard rubber. I'm not adverse to reintroducing the latter in some cases. :bandit:

Apparently there were only 16 arrests yesterday, which is quite remarkable out of a crowd of 1m

Also 75 people needed rescuing by the Fire Brigade to get down from heights they had scaled and couldn't get down again <laugh>
 
@brb

Any idea why my icons are not accessible to me?

They a light grey and not responding when I click on them
You need to toggle this mate [ ] if you can't see it depending what device you are on it might be three dots.

So on an empty comment box it would be top right next to the little floppy disk and preview with the magnifing glass.

I loved it when they opened the steel gates to the Emirates Stadium, and the coppers were standing the otherside with their truncheons in hand, resting on their shoulders ready to swipe anyone that steps out of line. Bit of old school policing.
