Trump's comments about British troops in Afghanistan were deeply offensive.
"They stayed a little back, a little off the frontlines."
We should never have been in those hellholes, but so many decent British men and women lost their lives fighting there.
Not a 'little off' the frontlines, but fighting alongside American allies and others.
We should never have been involved in those wars, and I will never forgive the cowards who took us into them. And yes, of course we need to spend more on our military capabilities.
That does NOT excuse Trump's comments.
The troops there were patriotic men and women who should have their memory and service honoured, not demeaned by the American President.
I like Trump. He's good for the West. But these comments were abhorrent. I sincerely hope he apologises.
Our Statement in response to President Trump's comments:
The service and sacrifice of British personnel in Afghanistan cannot be called into question, and we condemn any comments that undermine their extraordinary contribution.
@Danny260214 Is it still TS? Been decent enough for a long time hasnโt he? Might have had enough. Iโd go on a cruise for a month as well if theyโre playing like that tbf ๐
That 45 mins from Rotherham is worst half from a side Iโve ever seen at town and thatโs saying something. Horrific disgrace from them. Making us look class #htafc#rufc
@Danny260214 Yeah itโs bad. Weโve been bad a lot this year but that 45 was something else. Donโt deserve paying your lads I wouldnโt have them play for free. Chairman must be doing his nut!
@MightyMillers20 Some of the players look horrific. Not even trying. We can just walk through. If we were any good it would be 4/5 nil+ but weโre off the boil recently to say the least. This trophy is a shocker tbf
@bgannrufc So many holes for us to play into and then so many passes gifted to us under no pressure. And not tracking back. Itโs bad isnโt it. Weโre not in form either but feel for you guys if itโs not just a one off!
