I didn't equate the two and I have never mentioned specific examples of hard left violence in the UK because there are not that many examples (although there have been some concerning actions from the hard left that warrant heavy criticism yet stops short of physical violence.) why are you trying to suggest I have spoken about physical violence from be hard left in the UK when I have not? The vast vast majority of people are against fascists including myself, it's odd that you would suggest that I wasn't. Being Anti-fascist and a member of antifa are two entirely different things just as being pro equality and a feminist are two separate things as well. It's not difficult.

Players who are not suited- Gabbi, Tadic, boufal, jwp, redmond, Austin. Probably more but that's a lot of players.
-
A lot of our players aren't suited to the formation which underlines why we need to change it.
-
Where did I say that they had perpetrated violence? Although the fact that a BBC journalist had to have a bodyguard for her own safety last week says a lot. I consider some of the antisemitic stuff appaling as are some of the terrible attacks during the election which included throwing bricks through tory mp windows. You have no idea about my stance regarding our government invading other countries and I don't see why that's relevant here. You won't condemn hard left violence because you don't think there's a problem with it and frankly that's an absolute disgrace.
-
Not sure I'd necessarily agree. Maybe not now, but a couple of seasons ago I would say we were as attractive a draw as any team outside the top 7.
-
Basically change the system to make us more adventurous even if we are still losing or leave.
-
I obviously meant those currently on the left. Trying to pretend I have said that violence only comes from the left is an absurd characterisation of what I have said consistently on this thread. Why are you incapable of condemning violence that comes from the left? It's not a difficult thing to do.

Newcastle got benitez so you never know.
-
Could you imagine a couple of seasons ago if we had long as our lone striker and the first choice midfield that we have now? Shows how far we have fallen.
-
I'm officially worried now. We have played a succession of easy teams and have a poor collection of points. We fail to make enough chances and we are starting to make mistakes at the back. Poor.

I do wonder what redmond has to do to be dropped

You need the covenant app with a real-debrid account. Works perfectly every time.

Terrorist Attacks - WARNING: CONTAINS DISTRESSING IMAGES

To be fair, the people who are saying we should have stayed to sort it out were the same types who were going mad because we hadn't withdrawn our troops years later. Even if Iraq was a mistaken invasion we should have stayed to finish the job but it isn't politically savvy to have people dying when the conflict is seemingly "won" and you have simple minded members of the public screeching to bring our boys home prematurely. -
Yes I consider those who use violence to further their political aims to be the hard left- the same group whose violence you refuse to condemn which says a whole lot about the type of person you are. You're the one whose jumping to idiotic extremes about north Korea and invoking rags like the mail or express when I haven't mentioned anything like that you're just making yourself look foolish. I hope you realise it's possible to have legitimate criticisms and concerns with regards to a corbyn leadership without believing propaganda pieces from right wing newspapers. I consider the extremist elements of a corbyn government such as momentum and mcdonnell to be horrendous for the country if they ever got into power and it has nothing to do with your infantile comparisons to North Korea.

Really fecks up my fantasy team.

They specifically said they are focused on violence and threats of violence against people in the US and that the actual ideology is irrelevant. If this is true then that's great because it will automatically encompass all ideologies that threaten violence on others which will include swathes of antifa along with violent white supremacists. Seems like we are on the same page here.
-
Not really. Since your judgement appears to be so fatally flawed with regards the hard left, it makes me question your judgements in other areas too. Of course you would accuse me of being ill informed since it doesn't suit your hard left agenda. Thankfully according to the polls the majority of the British public have not been hoodwinked and agree with me. Let's hope it stays that way.
-
Sorry but I won't accept charges of being ill informed from someone who refuses to disavow violence in service of political gains.
-
Thanks soggy but I don't need a lecture from someone as ill informed as you. I'm well aware of the downsides of tory doctrine but I'd infinitely rather be governed by them than the hard left which is the option that corbyn offers.
-
“We take both of them very, very seriously,”*The Hill*reported Wray as saying. “Our focus is on violence and threats of violence against the people of this country. That’s our concern; it’s not ideology.” Good to know. If they keep to that philosophy then both extremes will be dealt with when they turn violent.
-
I don't think it will be that extreme either but the fact that he praises regimes like that is of huge concern.
-
Do you think corbyn will be able to afford all the promises his party have made?

Can someone confirm that this is fake news? I can't believe this is real but unreal if so. http://yournewswire.com/sweden-child-marriages/amp/ -
Do you trust corbyn to sort out the economy given his stated aims and the lack of money to actually do it?
-
OK mate keep telling yourself that. It says a lot that mcdonnell himself expects a run on the pound we're they to get into power. It's like he doesn't give a stuff about what happens to the country as long as he can push his extremist ideology onto the country. I don't want anyone near power that admires communist dictators and brandishes little red books in his speeches. No one has said that Corbyn is not a decent bloke but I don't want him or his comrades anywhere near the wheels of power, the prospect is frightening. Also the less said about the likes of Diane Abbott who no doubt would be given a prominent position running the country the better.
