His touch was heavy he would have known that and yet he was tempted to chase it he knew his man was goalside and that we were committed high its not all on him but majority is

Harsh on the U10’s

James is a better 8 than 10 maybe marti prefers a more defensive 10 away from home

Looking at the first team bench, be interesting to see the U21 line up

1-1 then …..

It works! You're not asking about the stuff he fooked up

Anyway, if you need to see obscuration in real time then boris is up before the Covid enquiry today

Anyone who has run a small business knows this to be true the authorities cannot effectively police every business. whilst cash exists, so will tax evasion and stock manipulation reduces profits to avoid corporation tax.

Half the huts are closing as part of the deal wouldn't be a shock for the other half to be gone by next spring

He’d need to be going back by ship to have time to count his money !

Did anyone watch MOTD because Lineker presented it ? Really ???

Is it reliably reported anywhere what actually happened. I saw some videos of what I would consider average football fan behaviour in the streets before a derby game - nothing unusual given that context. (Not great taken out of context). Of course a lot was being made of that - but a Thursday night in Birmingham should not be comparable. I was going to mention that pyrotechnics aren’t so readily available here for the average tourist wandering about but then I realised the date of the game !

agreed

He was jesting well done for doing that - there’s a well trodden narrative on SM that it’s nothing

You’re only making it worse for yourself ……..

people’s front of Judea /judean people’s front …………

Rarely cold though ……

for whatever reason, political Islamism is massively over represented in terrorism in some parts of the world. That is absolutely not Islam. However, with the massive number of Muslims around the world, it’s inevitable that any fringe extremism (which exists around all religions) will amount to a significant number of people. that not the fault of the religion - its just maths and human nature. as mickey pointed out a week or two ago, Islam is a very broad church with even different parts of different nationalities being quite spread in their interpretations. And that’s before you get into Shia/sunni! Laying general blame for anything (especially something as huge as this) at the door of one religion is very lazy and pretty ignorant.

Are the opponents more experienced ? I’ve no idea if we’re more prone than other academies to losing decent leads. Maybe it’s just a ‘kids’ football thing ( mind you, our first team have done it before too!)

Maybe they’ve got a load of shirts left over from last season with bc game on them - has anyone checked they’re the new shirts ??

Anyway moving onto the next thing bong andy no longer Duke of York

I think the threat comes away from the ground I don’t think banning home fans aswell makes any difference to their safety

I’m just referring to the law and process I don’t speak Hebrew - I don’t know what they’re actually chanting. if it’s true then it’s ugly and inexcusable. I would add that football fans anround the world (including these shores) are known to chant some pretty grim stuff from time to time. What examples are there over the years where a whole group of fans have been banned for what some have chanted ? My point was simple - uefa are not usually slow at throwing charges at clubs. WMP are entitled to ban them on the basis of public safety - I’d like them to make it clear what the reasons are. at the movement, many different groups are saying it’s for several different reasons. at the moment I’m not clear whether these fans are being excluded for the safety of our fans or them.

I’d be cautious about translations of chants in different languages. I think the issue here is that Maccabi fans haven’t been banned by UEFA. Why not ? Either they’re guilty of things that lead to such a sanction or they’re not. Someone mentioned Frankfurt fans being banned from the Napoli game next month. That is not a uefa decision. It’s from the Naples mayor based on the fights at a previous game between the two clubs. I suppose the difference here is the Villa fans not being involved.

For clarity, the Jew hunt was pre organised. The aggro and unpleasant chanting from MTA creates a background of ‘two sides to this’ for those who want to debate it. I can only assume that WMP have intelligence that something similar is possible in Birmingham.
