    I don’t see the contradiction here - I also think Edward Rabjohn has the right to live where he wants, however horrible a bloke he clearly is. Whereas the right to attend a football match at a particular stadium isn’t exactly a huge imposition on his rights, and will make our sport a better...

    Southgate just said in his press conference that he’s a “long shot”

    I guess it will have to be Gomez or Trippier?

    Not always the case that this forum believes in the power of criminals to rehabilitate - apparently in this case, minds are very much open!

    A lifetime ban from a football stadium isn’t exactly a draconian punishment imo. Not often that I’m the one arguing for more hardline punishments, but maybe others just don’t think it’s as serious a problem. As it is, this guy will be back in the stands as if nothing ever happened in five...

    Is that a world class midfield? Or defence? (Yes, I know the categories are fluid)

    UEFA EURO 2024

    You have to respect Southgate’s long game, lulling the competition into a false sense of security by picking the same squad for three consecutive tournaments and then naming a Liverpool/Palace combined XI for the Euros.

    UEFA EURO 2024

    Not sure why Dier isn’t nailed on for a seat on the plane personally - every week starter for Bayern, plays in two positions where we’re weak, experienced at international tournaments, trusted by the manager…

    UEFA EURO 2024

    Not sure that Grealish and Maddison have done enough tbh. Grealish at least has a decent pedigree at major tournaments, but Gordon, Eze and Palmer have done brilliantly in positions where we already have a logjam.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    I think it’s more that after several months of workshopping a Basildon Gazette meme that’s landed with total indifference, an increasingly frustrated Grendel is pivoting to a new line of attack. Personally I don’t know if people will buy the claim that I’m a crypto-Shia fundamentalist, but you...

    I think someone like this has an awfully big hill to climb, and even if he managed it, such is the nature of punishments that sometimes you will pay the cost for doing something you later regret. Personally I’m tired of this shit and I don’t think it’s the time for leniency.

    Sheffield Wednesday Fan Banned

    The City fan whose only crime was to be assaulted by several police officers at the Derby home game in 2011 was banned for three years - it’s hardly a stiff punishment. I’m sure he had his excuses when sitting in the dock, but actions have consequences. Let him try and watch football elsewhere...

    If you say so! Were you trying to gotcha me into admitting I secretly support the hardline fundamentalist president of Iran?

    The time to move on is when clubs and their supporters get serious about properly punishing this kind of stuff. I see nothing to stop SWFC from banning this guy for life, and I’ll be extremely disappointed if they don’t.
