Of course peace would be nice. I'm not sure anyone would disagree with that. I'm not sure why anyone is bothering to discuss something that isn't going to happen. Hopefully once Hamas has largely been destroyed, there can be some steps to improve things and move more towards some future peace but I doubt it will happen in our lifetimes sadly.

That post didn't mention the organisers. Imo the organisers should have no say in whether this goes ahead or not given that many of them have links to a terrorist group.

What was the name of the Liverpool supporter with the godfather avatar? Was it the don?

That's because someone found out his name was Steve rose who worked for a toy company. He scarpered after that.

Lucky bloke. I was absolutely soaked and wore a chunky goody that suddenly became very heavy. Memorable game though!

A very important twitter thread that everyone should read.

Goodness. In a totally unexpected development, it appears that half the people organising this peace march on Saturday have links to Hamas. That's quite a different narrative from what you were posting about last week @egg. I assume you're concerned by this revelation? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/11/06/former-hamas-chief-behind-pro-palestine-armistice-day-march/#:~:text=Muhammad Kathem Sawalha led the,in a London council house.

A friend just reminded me of this brilliant away day that we went to 14 years ago on Saturday. Was anyone else there? Hoping for a similar type of outcome this Saturday https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/4733020.bristol-rovers-2-southampton-3/

Good to see the Met coming out now and saying the obvious - that protests are wholly inappropriate this weekend. Assuming any of these protests are genuinely designed to be peaceful and to avoid any sort of clashes, you would assume that the organisers will respond to the police request and cancel any action. To do otherwise would suggest they do want to cause disruption and disorder.

It's interesting how these many, thousands of people were not out on the streets protesting to anywhere near the same extent when many more Muslims were being killed in Yemen or Syria for example. I wonder what it is about this lot of killings in particular that has inspired such protest? Hmm.

And sure as night follows day. Let's cross our fingers for no ugly scenes but anyone saying this so called protest isn't designed to provoke something like this is living on another planet

Exactly. And if anything Iran is more of a serious threat. The idea that Palestine would just play nice if Israel hadn't take steps to defend itself is a nonsense.

Yes but it's not like it wasn't entirely predictable.

I love late wins and you are right. I do however wonder how long we can keep on picking points up in this manner. I would like to see us a few goals clear and coasting in a few more games so we don't have to rely on very late winners or equalisers. It's not going to work out every time.

Normally it's the local authority who instructs the schools to close. Given the forecast they weren't going to not close just in case it turned out to be a damp squib.

Comes out an hour before. So 15 minutes.

When people use the word weary when they mean wary. Happens all the time.

You're just being deliberately obtuse. If that's what you really think that they haven't chosen that specific date for very specific reasons then all I can say is that the overwhelming majority of public opinion will disagree with you.

Clearly they've chosen the date and location in order to impact on rememberance. Come on you're not silly.

What's the big deal. I say let the BNP have a peaceful March on Eid or Windrush day. I don't see the problem.

On second thoughts. Let it go ahead.

Why was the EDL march banned in 2011? I can also answer for myself about what I feel cheers.

Because there's a high chance it's going to cause public disorder on that day in particular. Obviously.
