Youโ€™ll still find City fans on here explaining either that a) itโ€™s sold out actually and the photo was from half an hour before ko or b) their working class fanbase are all on the evening shift tonight so couldnโ€™t make it
I know we take the piss out of City and โ€˜The Emptihadโ€™ but itโ€™s fucking empty

Well done lads. Itโ€™s been a few years since weโ€™ve had a total and utter embarrassment, so it was well overdue. #arsenal

Good result. Would probably have lost comfortably if they didnโ€™t have four of their best players missing, but letโ€™s take the point and move on

If immigrant women had been attacked, the media would immediately ask whether anti-immigration marches and rhetoric had helped create the climate in which it happened. But when Jewish women are attacked, there is remarkably little interest in the climate created by years of Antizionist marches and relentless anti-Jewish rhetoric online and on our streets. The BBC even asks anyone who โ€œbelieves they may have been assaultedโ€ to come forward. Jewish women are doubted twice over: as women who report an assault, and as Jews who say they are being targeted by a hate movement. But there is a real hate movement against Jews, and the media refuses to name it. The double standard is blatant. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cr78โ€ฆ

I wasnโ€™t keen on the Konsa signing and didnโ€™t think Arsenal needed him. Iโ€™m glad I was totally wrong. Heโ€™s been an incredible addition.

Still gutted we lost Thames. As people said at the time - who wants to watch TV produced by people who make bags and rucksacks? #carlton
16 October 1991 35 years ago today was the day that the ITC decided who would run the ITV regional franchises and services from 1993. IN - Carlton, Meridian, Sunrise, Westcountry and Teletext Limited. OUT - Thames, TVS, TV-am, TSW and ORACLE. tvark.org/itn-news-special

I like baseball, but this sums up American sports fans. The Guardians, 3-2 up and needing one more out to win and take a big step towards the World Series. Instead of watching the most vital moment of a huge game, this woman is waving at the camera #mlb #guardians

โ€œPeople donโ€™t love us winning.โ€ Theyโ€™re unbearable. Theyโ€™ve convinced themselves everyoneโ€™s out to get them. We all support Man City when our side canโ€™t win because theyโ€™re irrelevant and itโ€™s not remotely painful to watch. People donโ€™t like you cheating and robbing a decade of moments from clubs and fans that played by the rules.
"We trust the club, we're very calm and we're very focused on enjoying football... It's all the same as before, because people don't love us winning and we love to win." Ruben Dias on the criticism the Man City squad are facing๐Ÿ˜ค

It is with profound sadness that we announce the death of Life President Ken Friar OBE. Since our formation in 1886, there have been many inspirational individuals who have driven our club forward, but no one has had an influence on Arsenal Football Club quite like โ€˜Mr Friarโ€™ and he leaves an extraordinary life of service to the club as his legacy. One that will surely never be matched. Rest in peace โค๏ธ

These bastards literally share the aims of the people that carried out the horrific events of October 7 - the complete and total destruction of Israel. They applaud them, laud them, and sympathise with them. And yet they post this without a hint of irony
Three years on, we remember the horrific events of October 7 and the wave of destruction in Gaza that has followed it. We call today, and every day, for an end to the violence, for peace and safety for all.

Being a member of virtually any synagogue in the UK as a Jew is now racist behaviour according to Green Party policy. This is horrifying and must be condemned across politics.
