Legitimate protests I have no problem with but I'm sorry, antifa are a terrorist organisation who routinely use violence, intimidation and smash stuff up as a form of "protest". I don't care who the organisation are, these tactics should be reviled no matter who they come from.

Do These sound like the type of people you should be defending? https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2017/09/the-rise-of-the-violent-left/534192/

Hardly. I condemn both the hard right abd hard left here. antifa are scum in much the same way that the alt right are.

That would only make me an apologist if the vast majority of the attacks in recent memory were far right attacks and I were constantly repeating "what about far left attacks" to try and make some sort of false equivalency. Clearly that is not the case here since it is arguable that attacks from the likes of antifa have been at least as prevalent as attacks emanating from the far right. Both are abhorrent by the way and should be eradicated.

Speaking of charlottesville, I find it odd that the BBC is reporting that Trump is under fire for condemning the violence without specific reference to the far right. By all accounts, the alt left terrorist groups like antifa and black lives matter were just as culpable for causing violence and destruction. Both sides should be condemned.

Saints sure know how to dampen my enthusiasm.

Who said it did?

Can't stand posts like this just before the season starts. Watch us lose and draw the majority of these games now and be in the relegation zone...

I'll add that I have no idea if it worked in the UK today or not as it worked perfectly for me but I'm currently in a hotel room in Italy watching it on my phone.

I think they are working on a solution without a vpn but I think I'm just going to get one so it's future proofed.

North Korea has secret underground tunnels giving them access to the south for an invasion, the largest forced Labour camps in the world, literally thousands of missiles pointed at their nearest neighbours and routinely discuss firing nuclear warheads at other nations. Do plenty of other countries do that? That's before you look at their horrendous human rights abuses, how they allowed a huge percentage of their people to starve to death in the 90s when most of their money went on the military, how they are responsible for numerous cyber attacks and frauds around the world, how they brainwash their citizens and how they refuse to let their people leave the country. I'm sorry but there simply isn't a sensible comparison to make between hugely flawed democracies like America and the horror of north Korea.

No but having thousands of missiles pointed directly at your nearest neighbour whilst sporadically attacking and killing citizens of your nearest neighbour along with nuclear tests and threats to use them in unprovoked attacks does make a country a terrorist threat.

I'd rather have hazard than coutinho.

[emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23] what a comic! Pmsl SSA has produced a plethora of knee slappers here no doubt. Satire to rival or even surpass the likes of Mrs Brown's Boys and Miranda.

No because dins think they know something blindingly obvious that those who run the club in their mind do not know.

Some of our fans are mentally retarded.

I agree to an extent but then we know that the BBC are supporters of forced diversity hires and discriminating against prospective hires based on their race and sex and this sort of push becomes a little more insidious. I want to see women's sport succeed because it's a great product in its own right (rather like women's athletics for example.) rather than because the BBC decide to push it continuously.

Yep it's definitely true. We are getting barkley no doubt.

Those people were idiots. I watched his first three games for us and it was obvious he was going to be class.

Can't agree with you there. He was a big erratic but incredibly exciting. You could tell straight away he was going to be something special.

I do get what you mean. Part of the fun of the new season is seeing the new signings and if they are world beaters or not. Seeing mane for the first time for example was incredibly exciting.

Oh I'm totally supportive of it and I hope the women do well so that it becomes a more popular sport. Every single BBC article mentioned a comparison with the men's team though and that's pretty mental when you consider the comparative strengths.

I might stick it on in the background. The most irritating thing I'd every BBC article mentions how the bloke manager is the first England manager since sir alf to reach a final abd the girl striker is the first one to score a hat trick ffs it's like a totally different sport why are they comparing records between the men's and women's teams? Let them stand on their own.

We won't be getting barkley and mental that people are suggesting it. However, massive lol that you think he's not good enough for saints.

There's a thread for that.
