Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - RIP Diogo Jota

[Gilver]

Hold up.. no disrespect.. but.. why u Brits cancel games?

Well they’re trying to dress it up as respect, as well as some policing concerns.

But the real reason is they’re scared about what might happen when they try and do a minutes silence and play the anthem at certain grounds.

Any disrespect would make front page news ‘football’s day of shame’ you know the sort of headline. They don’t have these worries with cricket etc because they’re all middle class flag shaggers.

Essentially they don’t want the ‘great unwashed’ voicing their feelings in any way that might reflect badly on on the sport.

But of course, we are a democracy and believe in free speech, never forget that.

In a meeting with Tuchel and his staff the new chelsea owners Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali rooted for a 4:4:3 System. Let this sink in for a moment...

Surely they’ll still have a moment of silence next weekend as well?

You would think so, but i suppose it wouldn't be quite so sensitive then.

I don't think they've announced the exact date of the funeral yet. If it's that weekend I wouldn't be surprised if they get called off again.

Better not be as i'm meant to be going to the Leeds game.

Would be stupid if United can go away to Sheriff(which is confirmed as on) then can't play Leeds at home.

 

[LiveFromLondon]

Smacks of elitism cancelling the games while pretty lilly white middle/upperclass sports like cricket continue, this is even though i love my cricket.

Would be stupid if United can go away to Sheriff

Aint no minute of silence going aheard there, BT may as well not show the match because of the dissent that'll be shown

Starting the day with Rayo and Valencia, and I’m about to watch Sevilla and Espanyol

Y’all should be thanking the Queen for giving you a chance to sample a superior product

The irony being the ones crying in the comments for him to be sacked will mainly consist of the - free speech advocates and the anti cancel culture/"woke" lot.. Oh wait


Bunch of flag shagging nonces
