Don’t like Ratcliffe, despise the Glazers

Still better than the club becoming some kind of geopolitical football

So much respect for Barry here. He’s dead right

Simon Jordan on TalkSport, unchallenged yet again.

As a Talksport employee, I am embarrassed by this rebuttal of what Neville said. This moron pontificates without question. It is bonkers.

And yeah, i'll probably be sacked. Fuck it.

Superb from Barry. Plenty of time for that. Cannot (absolutely can) believe the head loss over what Neville’s said. People are too thick or too racist to or both to understand the very simple points he’s making

The thing I’ve loved about the book is how many people have done what you’ve just done and shared what going to the game means. I always looks at the crowd and am fascinated by the tens of thousands of stories that have led all the people there

Thanks for buying mate. Noz is a fantastic writer and a lovely bloke. He helped me out a lot during the time period the book covers.

What’s been so strange about it all is that these people previously only felt emboldened to spout racist tropes while pissed on public transport. Now it’s done under the guise of ‘patriotism’ and ‘just asking questions’. Most can’t bring themselves to admit they’re racist while ticking every box

And yet if you put that to them, they kick off and pretend they’re outraged

It’s terrifying how some folk who you’ve interacted with for years are all of a sudden not what you thought

There are actually people who think this sudden flag-waving craze is just patriotism - and not, at least a little bit, racism.

Made the mistake of saying something similar on there last night and the replies have been a flood of idiocy, some of it openly racist. Just proves Neville’s point really.

The other place - unsurprisingly, given what a cesspit it’s become - has lost its collective mind over the Neville video. Even if it’s a bit clumsy, the message is clear: we’re being divided. It’s a general point, not some wild claim directly blaming white men for a synagogue attack.

Must be rough when your team loses three on the bounce. A club in crisis.
