Cancel all games between 26th Dec and 2nd January, and restart 18/19th January. It’s only a case of rescheduling 3 games. There’s no appetite to play behind closed doors again..
The same week that @RupertLowe10 put out his bullshit ‘rape gang report’ falsely claiming Muslims raped 250,000 white girls & same week @elonmusk amplified it on here, this happens. Is anyone surprised?
They’re inciting violence against Muslims and emboldening extremists.
I don’t want to hear any bullshit about “legitimate concerns” and “working class revolt”
It’s working-class Black and brown people being pushed out of their homes. This is racist violence and intimidation. Don’t dress it up as anything else.
Richard Burgon just exposed the most glaring double standard in British policy
"Imagine if this weekend in London there was a Russian real estate event selling Ukrainian land. The government would ban it immediately.
Instead, we have an Israeli real estate event openly advertising the illegal sale of land in occupied Palestinian territories. The government recognizes Palestine. Why isn't this banned?"
Barely a month ago this man was imprisoned for the violent rape of a Sikh woman believing that she was a Muslim. No Douglas Murray articles in the Spectator, no Baroness Fox speech in the Lords. No riots. Two tier? Too right https://t.co/8wABWe3bww
@ZiaYusufUK And your shameless cunt of a boss, didn't want to hear, or take heed of the statement from the father or family of the victim. Nothing more than a shower of grifting racist bastards. No interest at all in the victim, no interest in the wishes of the victims family.. Shame on you
So if reports of Tommy Robinson’s appearance at the Southampton protest are anything to go by
-He interrupted the one minute silence for Henry Nowak
-Gave a speech where he blamed Muslims
How anyone could support such a pathetic bellend
First Thornberry. Now this one.
They know a reckoning is coming, and they're scrambling to save themselves. But the archives don't forget - and they don't lie.
Whilst we’re on the subject of sabotage…
Before agreeing to return, Rodgers was assured that recruitment had improved since his first tenure.
Remember that first window? £19m spent on 10 players. Nothing had changed. We were still on the hunt for cheap punts.
He wanted centre-backs with pace for the Champions League. Mark Lawwell delivered Maik Nawrocki & Gustaf Lagerbielke - two players who had no pace.
We sold Jota & Abada, but failed to adequately replace them.
Joe Hart announced his retirement in February 2024, yet we had no replacement lined up five months later when Rodgers had to personally contact Kasper Schmeichel and do the recruitment team’s job for them.
On to the second season, where we actually showed some ambitious intent in the summer window. The fact we were without a Head of Football at that time due to the departure of Mark Lawwell may have been coincidental.
We sold Matt O’Riley and then Kyogo in January, but failed to adequately replace them.
Then came the third season, where we were dreadfully ill-prepared for the Champions League, failing to negotiate the qualifiers for the 7th time in 9 attempts.
We sold Kuhn, but failed to adequately replace him (do you see the trend developing here?).
We kept Maeda when his head was already in Wolfsburg.
We sold Idah, messed up the Dolberg deal, then had to go back to the Rodgers Rolodex to bring in Iheanacho.
When Rodgers eventually spoke out about this amateur approach to recruitment, someone at the club briefed against him to the worst tabloid rag imaginable.
You may well have a predetermined view on Brendan Rodgers, but he wasn’t the one sabotaging Celtic. If you believe that, you’ll agree with every word of Desmond’s statement obliterating the man on his departure - a statement that remains a stain on Celtic’s reputation.
The target of our disdain should be fully focused on those in the boardroom who are incapable of progressing our football club, not on managers trying to achieve success to a backdrop of chaos and dysfunction.
