In the same game as a man was sent off for standing upright, this is a penalty only. Well done everyone. Great job.

The British Government has revealed following questions I asked that they have paid £4.3m in legal fees and support for Soldier F since 2019. For comparison, the victims of the people he killed have had to fund their own challenges.

@TomTugendhat A sizeable chunk of the people who take their kids to breakfast clubs are doing so because it’s the only way they can get to work on time. Whilst the food is essential for some (are you against kids going hungry?) it’s often simply about making sure children are safe & cared for.

53 years ago, the British army shot dead innocent civilians in Derry. David Cameron, as Prime Minister, apologised for Bloody Sunday — yet shamefully, not one person has been prosecuted. Today’s not guilty verdict for Soldier F isn’t justice; it’s another betrayal of the

"Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters were banned from watching their game against Aston Villa after police intelligence concluded the biggest risk of violence came from extremist fans of the Israeli club." So @Keir_Starmer, will you be apologizing? @lisanandy will you be apologizing?

This is insane. Winter is conflating British Jewish fans at Spurs with far right Israeli football hooligans. How is that not brazenly antisemitic?

🇦🇲 Armenia, ranked 103rd in the world, came to Dublin and dominated possession against an Irish team full of Premier League & Championship players. How? It's not luck. Nor is it effort. It's tactics. 🇮🇪 Heimir Hallgrímsson's Ireland - broken down in full. A tactical thread 🧠

Heimir Hallgrimsson's first 12 competitive matches Vs Stephen Kenny's last 12 competitive matches in terms of XG conceded 📊 20.87 goals Vs 13.95 goals. If his selling point is defensive organisation and 'back to basics' solidity, it has been an abject failure. #COYBIG

the sheer badness of Ireland's home record is understated. Since beating Germany a decade ago, the only home qualifier wins (Euro or WC) have been against Georgia, Bosnia, Moldova, Georgia, Gibraltar, and Gibraltar
if Ireland win tonight, it will be their first home win in a World Cup qualifier since beating Moldova 2-0 eight (!) years ago

This is madness and I'll keep saying it because it should be impossible but for the power of proper investment in youth football. There are fewer than 15,000 males aged under 40 in this country. Stunning @FaeroskFodbold

The irony the referee went to the VAR monitor for two penalties in the @Inter v @Feyenoord match but didn’t in our game. Shocking lack of consistency. On one penalty he gave, he went to the monitor and overturned his original decision. But didn’t with us. Disgraceful.
