@EndOfTheWorld7@Selickpark Those stats are clearly wrong ffs. He won numerous tackles, was fouled multiple times, and made plenty of successful passes.
Must not have watched the game, eh?
The sheer arrogance of a failed Valencia manager on full display here to essentially say “just stick a man on Messi” is fucking hilarious
As if Mourinho, Ferguson etc never thought to do that
He has been unstoppable for two fucking decades 😂
This is who the British prime minister and an army of UK newspaper columnists are shamelessly defending today, and outrageously equating with all Jews.
Fuck off you weapon. You and your colleagues didn’t say a word when @WMPolice made the decision to refuse the entire Legia Warsaw fanbase entry because of their conduct.
But of course it’s Israelis, so break out the violins
Their behaviour in Amsterdam was abhorrant.
This whole Maccabi Tel Aviv - Aston Villa issue should be a case study in the manipulative use of allegations of antisemitism.
It turns out the decision to ban Maccabi Tel Aviv fans stemmed from intelligence shared by the European Policing Network to Westmidlands Police regarding the danger posed by Maccabi Tel Aviv fans. It is for this reason that there was a 'high risk' designation because of violent incidents that had occurred elsewhere in Europe perpetrated by Maccabi Tel Aviv fans.
Our Home Secretary was made aware of this ban last week. So, the government has had a whole week to prepare a comprehensive and sensible statement / position regarding the ban. Instead, our political leaders have consciously and deliberately chosen to further a malicious narrative, claiming falsely that this is a case of antisemitism; that Jews in the UK are not safe and cannot be adequately protected if they attend football matches.
All of this is in furtherance of a narrative that pro-Palestine activity is somehow an imminent and serious threat to Jewish communities and the very future of Jewish life in the United Kingdom. This, in turn, is also furthering islamophobic, anti-Arab, and anti-Palestinian racism and dehumanising narratives about Palestinians and their supporters.
What a complete mess this has become all because our government has no spine and seeks to exploit the sense of insecurity and vulnerability of Jews as a convenient scapegoat.
Tomorrow Mo Chara is back in Westminster Magistrates Court as the British government's carnival of distraction continues.
Since his last court appearance Israel has murdered another 9,000 Palestinians, mainly children and women.
Over 1,000 murdered whilst queuing for aid, starved due to their siege, whilst pitiful amounts of aid delivered by a sham agency controlled by Israel.
Young children gunned down by snipers as they scramble for a bag of flour.
Whole families, from babies to grandparents, murdered as they huddled in makeshift tents.
The IOF have since moved through Gaza turning what's left of homes, schools and hospitals to literal dust.
Evil beyond any fucking words.
As the British state arms and supports these war crimes they'll have Mo Chara in court in London tomorrow to try to label him a terrorist.....
Come down and show your support/ solidarity outside the court.
If you're in Ireland make your way to Connolly Books in Temple Bar.
British courts have long charged people from the North of Ireland with "terrorism" for crimes never committed.
We will fight them.
We will win.
Free Palestine.
Free the Six Counties.

One element of the political policing intimidation attempt is over.
We played a historic set at Glastonbury. Whole area closed an hour before due to crowds. A celebration of love and solidarity. A sea of good people at the world's most famous festival.
Shortly afterwards we learn of an active police investigation. An investigation that followed after the Prime Minister himself said it "was not appropriate" we played Glastonbury.
Walk off stage to the rapturous sounds of good people and into the creaking scheming sounds of the establishment.
This "investigation" was reported across the world's media often with wildly misleading headlines.
Every single person who saw our set knew no law was broken, not even close....yet the police saw fit to publicly announce they were opening an investigation.
Why open and publicise an investigation into fuck all?
This is political.
This is targetted.
This is state intimidation.
After the media damage is inflicted and seen by millions of eyes - you receive a private email to say there's no evidence and no action - that is seen by two people only.
There is no public apology, they don't send this to media or post it on police accounts.
We will continue to fight.
We will continue to win.
