Emiliano Martinez - World Cup winner and officially best keeper in the world

The leadership now in Argentina headed by the crackpot Javier Milei isn’t exactly the sort to find any remorse for this situation

Argentina's Vice-President Victoria Villarruel:

"No colonialist country is going to intimidate us for a football song or for telling the truths that they do not want to admit. Stop feigning indignation, hypocrites. Enzo, I'm with you."

There is obviously a culture in the squad that means this is allowed to happen and not be challenged. Who knows how many players were too cowardly to oppose it and how many more were too cowardly to stare at their shoes silently in disgust. From the military to football squads, if you put a close knit group of hyped up young men in a small space there will be few who have the moral courage to stand up to it. Otherwise decent people end up going along with deplorable behaviour. My fear is that Emi is in that category. They probably all were. As for the nonsense from a couple of posters around, ‘it’s not really racism’… what bollocks.

Yes, absolute bollocks. Then there’s the one(s) who don’t care about racism because they’re not black or something.

Having read the translation of what they were singing, it’s really not being snowflake woke to say that is straightforward racism.

Its certainly not intended to promote racial harmony.

Class. Terrible how our world is racing to the gutter.

It’s a small comfort that as, the lunatics are taking over the asylum around the world (I am allowed to say this for the same reason black people can use the n word), we have jettisoned our home grown fuckwit charlatans viz Johnson and Truss.

They haven't gone away. The right will be unified by the the of the next lection and will be a much more potent force.

Liz Truss is currently at the RNC supporting Donald Trump. She’s a former Prime Minister endorsing that ******.

We're getting way off topic now, even by H&V standards.

[Toronto Villa]

It’s only completely off topic when biscuits or sauce discussions make it into a thread.

In fairness she is not the only former PM there!

[Hookeysmith]

Has it been proven that OUR Emi was seen singing it or being the instigator?

If not then can we leave it until he actually is rather than speculate. Give the media any negative lead and next thing it will be that we have driven our best player out of the club due to what is believed rather than known.

[kippaxvilla2]

I think the defence look far more comfortable with Emi behind them.

How many Argentinans are descended from Spanish colonisers?

Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel. I had a Welsh boss who viscerally hated the English, did some family research and found out he was descended a few generations ago from the English. He still thought it was ok to call us mongrels, even though he was self identified as an English/Welsh mixed heritage person, which is actually fine but by his definition a mongrel. I love a bit of national pride and I fucking hate nationalism. Edited for crap spelling.

And to complete the off topic, all biscuits are essentially made to satisfy the sugar to fat golden ratio that means you keep eating long after you are full Rats have been shown to eat until they explode. Cheesecake is the best example of the sugar to fat golden ratio. You can’t stop eating cheap cheesecake because it is more moreish than heroin.
