Euro 2024 Qualifying Stage

TBH that old phrase is bollocks. Calling someone names is intended to provoke a response.

It transpired that the individual with that flag has been involved with far-right prescribed organisations. Do you think he was out for some harmless banter? I doubt it?

Nope of course not. It’s not correct to say what you like. And the sayingi isn’t bollocks otherwise I would have spent my school days fighting every day. There’s no need to respond or excuse responding with violence. That’s how things escalate. Give it the contempt it deserves. The authorities dealt with it and that’s the best way.

Not sure what you’re point is but Iron Mike while being a great boxer isn’t someone I look to for life advice.

Reading in the papers today the Italian police were accused of charging the England fans without provocation just like the French police did to our supporters in Paris and the England fans must have learnt from our fans reaction and didn’t retaliate. I don’t understand why they get their riot police out to control a few supporters who are queuing to get into the stadium in an orderly manner?

Not really. It’s still him people are responding to. Yesterday is a great example. He tried, he really tried to focus on the result and the historical importance of it in his post game comments. But literally before the sentence was over, which started with commenting on the result being the most important thing, without anything resembling a transition, he was on to talking about his record. And that’s a bit shit for him, because he should be allowed to talk about his pride in breaking such a big record, but its the fact that on any given weekend this will be the way he talks about scoring his 3rd goal of the season on a day when Spurs won.

guessing you didn’t hear the story about how some idiot on a plane started chirping and Tyson knocked him out

you may be surprised by his humility as of late. Think life has taken a turn for him, for the better. doesn’t seem like an act to me.

Newton’s Third Law comes to mind

Also Kane is never called up for constantly trying to injure defenders by taking out their legs when they go up to head the ball. That’s just good old fashioned English CF play.

For what it’s worth, I’m not offended by the Diego banner, but it’s funny the fan got his ticket cancelled.

If it’s true then it doesn’t matter who it comes from.

Phenomenal Marseillaise in Paris tonight.

:ok_hand:t4:

Looking forward seeing more of Kolo Muani, I like that player.

France tearing Netherlands apart 3-0.
Virgil v Konate.

The Netherlands and goalkeepers…

Out of the 3 GK’s who were at the WC, none are in the squad now.

:joy:

I’m watching the golf, mr. McIlroy to be precise :+1:

Konate almost 4-0. :sweat_smile:

Lukaku took Hazard’s #10 shirt and Trossard instead of wearing it, took Lukaku’s #9.

:joy: :man_facepalming:t2:

I think we should sign that Mbappe fella.

Like the challenge on Robbo that was as bad as the one Robbo got sent off for later that game

So are you, Semmy and Red Whippet saying it’s ok to smack somebody in the face if they insult you? Am I understanding this right?
