England fans who have spent the last 50 years singing about shooting German bombers and not surrendering to the IRA are now having a hissy fit over the word Malvinas scribbled on a bed sheet with felt tip pen.
Weird lot.
@vespablue65 Fair enough but since when have 'football lads' cry arsed about what players do. It's the hypocrisy that's amusing.
If Bellingham had sported a t shirt with the Falkland Islands on it some on here would be wanking furiously over it
The Night Owl still going?
Congratulations to our close, self effacing neighbour England on winning the World Cup last night.
Thoroughly deserved and pleased for you all. No more 60 years of hurt. Shove that up your fannies Germany.

@weareBCSRF@Peter_Shilton He's still frothing at the mouth about being out jumped by a coked up hobbit (Maradona was the bollocks) which is lovely stuff.
Chris Bryant has been the Labour MP for Rhondda and Ogmore since 2001 and is currently Minister For Trade.
Chris was privately educated at Cheltenham College and trained to be a Church of England priest. He later worked for the @BBC. Chris was once a member of the Conservative Party.
During the expenses scandal of 2009, Chris was found to have ‘flipped’ his second home twice and claimed up to £92,000 in stamp duty, service charges, mortagage interest charges and other fees on his expenses.
Chris is a member of the lobby organisation Labour Friends of Israel and was involved in the plots, coups and leadership bids aimed at taking down Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership of The Labour Party.
In February 2024, Chris was heavily involved with Keir Starmer and @LindsayHoyle_MP in derailing the @theSNP ‘s motion for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. MP @KirstySNP Blackman said that Chris’ involvement and ‘damning revelations (showed that) Keir Starmer pulled every dirty trick in the Westminster book to wreck the SNP’s vote on an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.’
It has just been revealed (April, 2026), that Chris, in his role as Minister for Trade, misled Parliament over the sale and use of military aircraft parts to Israel. This occurred during his appearance before a Parliamentary Committee in September 2025.
Chris was awarded a knighthood in 2023 for his political and public service.
In his Register of Interests entries, Chris has stated that he derives ‘occasional income from media/journalism activities.’ The truth is that Chris has established a very lucrative second career from these activities.
The @ElectoralCommUK website shows that Chris has received £53,535 in donations. But this only reflects a part of what extra income he derives from his parallel career as a writer, journalist, media presenter/celebrity and in-demand speaker.
Chris’ donations and perks include:
£2,000 from Rockridge Partners.
£2,000 from banker Anthony George Watson.
£5,000 from @WeAreTheMU
£3,000 from @unisontheunion
£7,320 from Labour Friends of Israel. Chris has made three visits to Israel over the years which have been organised by Labour Friends of Israel. ✈️ 🇮🇱

With his approximate salary of £150,000, expenses, donations, income from speaking engagements, rental income, articles, books, TV appearances, podcasts and perks, Chris has prospered in his 25 years as an MP.
And as an MP, Chris initially voted to retain the two-child benefit cap, voted to scrap the winter fuel payment to pensioners, voted for the welfare changes that will impact people who are disabled and unwell, voted against an inquiry into grooming gangs, voted to restrict trials by jury and voted for the new police powers to suppress protests and freedom of speech.
‘The Labour Party - On Your Side’.

@KJReik@Salou977@barneyrednews From the Glazers & Ratcliffes perspective, there's no need to. Seats sold for a much higher price & membership money to continue to roll in each season. I doubt there will be a drop in membership numbers? I dont see them being too arsed I've binned mine!
@Salou977@barneyrednews@KJReik I don't feel I'm entitled in receiving tickets it's the cost of now doing so. They ask for loyalty whilst piss down your back and tell you it's raining.
This season we've seen tickets go on general sale at discounted prices so another thing to ponder why have the membership?
