The combined Maccabi thread - now with are you going? poll

[brontebilly]

What I find amazing is how seemingly hardly any of the public figures expounding on this seem to understand that away fans being banned in a European fixture is far from an unusual thing.

They clearly know absolutely nothing about football.

It is also interesting to see how, after decades of not giving a flying fuck about the well being of football supporters, all of a sudden it's their primary focus.

Id suspect they understand fully the intricacies of the security of European club football fixtures. It would take only a short call to UEFA or the PL to confirm only one way or the other.

Britain is completely in the hock to the US and as a result the Israeli intelligence services. That explains the second point.

This is where we are. Keir Starmer, Nigel Farage, Kemi Badenoch and Ed Davey all on the same side as far-right thug Tommy Robinson in defending an Israeli Football Team that chants songs about raping Arab women and killing Palestinian children. Our politics is broke.

Ok so the game should probably be played behind closed doors now. Well done everyone.

This is the problem - the whole thing has taken on a life of its own.  The very last thing we need is Tommy Two Names supporters turning up.  Assuming his trial wont be done by then? Would be good to see him back in Jail.

Or a broad church of political opinion feel that as a nation we ought to be able to address safety and not give in to mob rule on either side.

Things might snowball further out of control now Mr Robinson is posting about it.
I hate the guy even more now he's requesting people to turn up at my second home.
Its no longer just a football match.

[Beard82]

I cant remember on which thread / which poster - but said about not doing the match.  I hate the idea - but do wonder if thats the least bad option. 

The best outcome we can hope for as Villa is that in 6 months no one remembers this

As a paid up member of the party, this is the angriest I've been with Starmer. Perhaps I need to reflect on what is important to me but it just strikes me as an unnecessary, unhelpful and potentially dangerous intervention.

It really does gobsmack me that the government are getting involved with policing a single football match. I suppose it shows the depth of on one level anti-Islamic feeling and on the other pro-Israeli lobbying.

I think this has just pretty much guaranteed the game will be moved. Even playing behind closed doors won’t stop potential trouble outside or in the city

It makes me sick to my stomach to see this vermin getting involved in anything to do with MY club.
And all the fuckingcunts who support him can fuck off too, including some of our lot who follow him.

Yes!!

[olaftab]

We play teams that are owned by utter scum in the league. And in Europe. Play the game with no away fans, slap them 4-0, gloat, and then crack on.

I am with you except let their fans in and thrash them.

Si, Señor Aftab.

Gracias señor ¿quiere un mojito?

I should of left ages ago but haven’t due to pure apathy. A million more important issues, but this has done it for me, Starmer is such a fuckwit.
Its probably been covered in off topic, but across numerous radio stations  today, the complete lack of an interview with anyone from the local community was staggering

As if Yaxley-Lennon would set foot in B6.  He'd get seven bells of shit knocked out of him hopefully.

The guy could say that the moon is made of cheese and he'd be believed by his supporters.
Being bankrolled by the richest man on the planet will help his cause sadly.
But don't bring your far right agenda to my football club.
