    It's quite obvious what has driven this - the Green Brigade are very vocal with their support for Palestine.
    Football and religion together is bad enough, but throwing politics into the mix makes it totally toxic. I sense that the Celtic board has been 'got at' - and can only wonder who is behind it.

    Sheffield Wednesday owner in financial trouble - and therefore the club?

    He has appealed for 20,000 of their fans to each donate £100 to help them out.

    I wonder how many, if any, will cough up?

    For once I agree with the 'men in suits' - Football Australia have announced that they are no longer interested in hosting the 2034 World Cup.

    Looks like it will be Saudi Arabia - the only other country to express interest.

    It is like a different country up there. :bandit: Certainly, the media seem to be influenced from somewhere on what they do report on many issues, and what they never mention.

    Well it is a different country...<laugh>

    But you're right, the media here are a law unto their backers and accordingly report very selectively. Virtually everything they say and do is so biased against the Scottish Government it's not funny. I think they act as Westminster's Deflection Unit - whenever there's something bad about to break, they run the same old stories about Nicola Sturgeon, Humza Youssef, drug deaths, a scheduled ferry run to the Western isles being cancelled or about pigeon droppings in a hospital. Ludicrous but tiring...

    Gives them a better chance of progressing?

    I see they have a couple of ex Hornets in their squad (not that they made many appearances) - Ikpeazu and Massey.

    Maybe they had little option, given that their founder was a Holocaust victim?

    Sorry, these are the only two teams in the Scilly Isles, and this is the season's fixture list.
