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

[Nunkin1965]

I didn't sense any discontent or dark clouds at all. What utter bullshit.

It's the Telegraph

So this sort of one sided tripe shouldn't be a surprise.

[Hookeysmith]

Imagine if the Macabbi fans were allowed to come and imagine if there was no real protest and instead a gamed of football broke out and all was good.

Do you not think the media would report it as it was or look for something negative to report - i remember in Italia 90 and Spain 82 how certain people within the British press would fund the hooligans to be on the piss all day and then report how the "scum" would bring shame to the UK when it kicked off - i even read that a S8N reporter was pointing out to local youths where the England fans were drinking - all to get a staged photo.

Reporting a funeral sells more than a wedding (unless its some twat off Love Island etc)

The press are diabolical here - no such thing as news nowadays only opinion.

It seems the press have jumped on something which has been completely manufactured in order to beat the club over the head. It feels like just an extension of the usual PSR/trying to sell our players to the Sky thing but with mu h darker undertones

The club and the city. Absolutely no mention of the national football intelligence units involvement in the decision.

Yeah imagine if weeks post genocide, the people that commited the genocide rocked up to watch a football match in an area surrounded by people whose family have been murdered in the genocide.

[dcdavecollett]

As has already been pointed out, it's from the Torygraph.

This means that a paper which 100% supports genocide in Gaza is trying to slag off an area of the city/club/fans who aren't quite as enthusiastic on the subject.

Just file under far-right culture war shite.

Not sure, but go up to Lozells a mile up the road and there are a bigger concentration of Palestinian flags than I’ve seen elsewhere in Brum. If that tells you anything at all, which is possibly doesn’t.

If the link works true or false?

[Somniloquism]

What is the question?

[cdbearsfan]

"British Patriot for the British People". I'll give it a miss, ta.

[Somniloquism]

According to her, the whole team has not been allowed in the country. That is false.

[cdbearsfan]

I wouldn't have expected a Youtube channel full of Reform and EDL propaganda to promote lies. You can't trust anyone, these days.

[garyellis]

I had it sent to me in the context that the operational issues were not the reason for the ban.
I called it out as bollocks
I have not heard of her before or her crew.
But you can see how facts are twisted to suit the narrative
I only perked up when she mentioned Aston Villa.
Agree with everyone’s sentiments and will reply accordingly.

[Somniloquism]

I'm just trying to answer gary's question. I'm assuming that was what he was asking true or false on in his post as he hasn't specified anything.
