Everything is shitposting now

I'm always amazed at the confidence with these lads. Even if they're right, they assume that talking about high value and low value foreigners will have absolutely no effect on whether the "high value" foreigners will actually want anything to do with them, and I'm not sure that assumption holds

🤣 I felt like the positivity in adversity was a part of the day, maybe my week was decent. I got the away day, joined in the boycott and now I've resubscribed so me and the kids can watch from Finland again. Would love to be there today tho...

I am absolutely fascinated by rangers fans and their ideas about their position in the world

Summed it up well there, felt the same during the game. Very glad I went tho

It would be simpler to just point out their bad faith. Like I said, I might be wrong. But it feels a bit like you guys helped them out by making an unsustainably bad policy into a sustainably bad policy

They already did it though. It's just future, left-leaning governments that are committed to not doing this.

They've successfully laundered their reputations and will scream about the debt if they're in opposition. Maybe you're playing 4D chess and I'm thick, but it seems like they stitched you up

But you are negotiating away your possible future government's fiscal headroom in a way that legitimises this government's claims to fiscal prudence just months after they raided a pension fund to "pay for" tax cuts. It doesn't seem smart. But if you believe in it, of course you have to do it

The electoral benefits on the anti-austerity side of Finnish politics are going to be for the parties that say 'this is daft, no other country is doing this to itself, we won't enter a government that doesn't repeal this'

IDK mate, if I was you I would wonder why we need cross party consensus on this but not on, say, education or healthcare policy.

What is the point of you, if you're accepting the idea that politicians shouldn't decide on this stuff?

Civil servant thinking. If you want the political benefits of opposing a policy you think is dumb, you gotta say it's dumb

There was a little table selling cakes and sandwiches and coffee, run by parents and turning a good profit. There always is at these tournaments. I suspect the demand is there for something more permanent, and the building in the structure is purely a cost, not a revenue stream

Today's sports infrastructure. Loads of parents here today. Relatively new, in a well-off neighbourhood, weather is Baltic and this big structure has no cafe/bar/clubhouse/restaurant. Such a waste

Sure there are places I can drink and watch sport! But idk why Finnish clubs don't want that kind of community hub. The day my kids stop playing football I will never do anything for their club ever again, it's a bit sad

I would absolutely talkoot the f out of a Finnish clubhouse where I could get a pint and watch a game on TV. I don't think such a thing exists, unfortunately

He seems quite committed there, clearly condemning the NATO member threatening to annexe parts of another

I'm happy for you. Really I am. I'm just not looking forward to the Finnish state response to coming events in the US
