Wake me up when it's over

I heard you being interviewed on TalkSport before the match, while driving, and thought, how reasonable you were, articulate about the issues faced by Jewish Football fans ( specifically Villa’s) and how empathetic to the political issues faced by the Club, at the time.

I don’t recognise your response today as coming from the same person.

There’s a question in Parliament today about the Villa and the match v Maccabi. It’s appeared here, because it is current about AVFC, the Club we all follow. Why are you quoting old posts?

It doesn’t help anybody or challenge what is being said in Parliament about The Villa.
It’s about as insightful a comment as Ian Duncan Smith’s.

So I take you are going with it is neccessay to protect the Jews from locals, hence the shame, and not it is neccesary to protect the locals from the same thing that MTA fans did in Greece and Amsterdam?

Yes because a) that’s what the police statement said and b) if the game was in London or Norwich or Plymouth, there wouldn’t be a problem, which implies the locals are the issues.

Can you show me a citation that it would not be a problem in London, Norwich or Plymouth? Also, you are ok with MTA fans attacking Muslims in other cities?

No, because it’s what’s called a hypothetical. I believe it to be true however. Israeli clubs have played in Stoke, Manchester, London before with no problems.
And no, bc I’m not in favour of anyone being attacked.

So because matches happened in 2011, 2002 and I'm assuming a similar time frame for the London matches, you believe a match taking place today would not have banned away supporters? Especially ones who have a small recent history of attacking locals of certain persuasions. Didn''t the national Police organisation who supposedly informed the HO it was going to be an away fans ban state they totally stood by the decision?

Again, your sources no doubt far better than the Official. Police. Report.

As above...the police report was fundamentally untrue.

You seemed quite fond of it before.

Anyway, it didn’t go off, no-one got beaten to a pulp by hundreds of racist nutters like in Athens, and decent people didn’t have to put up with singalonga-genocide. Good.

Two different police reports. UK and Dutch
