I think we watched a re-run of Blue Bloods, anything other than watching f*ucking Gareth Southgate trying to "organise" a football team.
I read the Independent's front page opening article from Wembley, it mentioned the Hungarians not taking the knee, the Hungarian black shirts in the crowd, the Met's zealous response to an alleged racist incident, but it failed to mention the score.
It appears ending "racism" is now more important than winning football matches. He's a proper drip is Gareth.
I keep reading that Gareth's experiment, playing an extra attacking player, failed. But did it, Pickford was virtually a spectator, and if it hadn't been for a freak penalty we would have won, the performance was on a par with most previous ones, especially in the Euros where, despite reaching the final, we were laboured and ponderous for the most part. To claim that it 'didn't work' last night, you have to accept that having Phillips in the team instead of Foden or Grealish would have led to a better performance, and if you think that, then I can only suggest you're living in La-La Land.
It is absolutely clear even to Stan’s blind man on a galloping horse that the knee is hugely divisive. Speaking to someone on the bus this morning they thought “those Hungarians were a dirty lot”. The knee is clearly doing its job in tackling racism. After all the media keep telling us it is match after match after match. So it must be right.
Never mind getting on your knees Outwood, buy yourself an 'I Love Gareth' badge, pin it on your upper arm and point to it before kick-off. We must take every opportunity to raise awareness of Gareth's tactical astuteness, short of actually getting on our knees of course.
BT I saw a great right hook in the stands worthy of Fury’s on wilder in the big fight , other than that business as usual with the football.
I say give Gareth a new contract , (!the English mentality beggars belief ).
But he’s got us to a semi and a final I hear you say he’s brilliant- I say he’s won nothing and in truth it’s his own fault as the semi we should have won and the final we wilted second half and sent the kids in to save us on penalties.
He could go today for me - we have a pool of very talented footballers ( not since beckham scholes gerrard lampard and the like have we had this choice)
Some don’t get a game at all - some stay on bench and some continue to play when obviously they shouldn’t be .
Gareth the FA puppet - does and says all the right things , we’re mad in this country
Hungary tonight? I am absolutely bloody starving and England will be starved of success while Southgate and the current crop of the FA remain in charge. All they have achieved so far with their ridiculous Quixotic tilting against windmills is to promote charges of racism against everyone (and in particular Eastern European countries) who do not agree with their knee taking antics. Expect no change from the fawning media when we get to the Albania game.
I hate to say it Outwood but the in the past 2 years it has been undeniably proven that politics is inextricably linked to football.The Central European or V4 countries have been single out as they refuse to accept certain policies which the globalist puppet EU Commission find very important, in fact so much so that they are willing to risk the break up of their United States of Europe.
Namely migration, gender politics and the rule of law are the three areas in which the V4 refuse to budge.Here the government of Viktor Orban held referendums on migration and the LGBTQ lobby not being allowed to go into junior and secondary schools namely that it is the parents right to teach matters of ***ual orientation up until the age of 18.
Needless to say on both matters the population voted well over 95% in favour of not allowing migrant quotas and not allowing NGO`s to promote alternative ***ual orientation in schools.
The government is following policies therefore that match the will of the people.Hungary passed a law preventing NGO`s entering schools to promote gender politics which was part of a law advocating much stiffer penalties and prison terms for convicted pedophiles.
Because of this Hungary and Poland have become the bad boys of Europe.They are vilified by the complacent MSM as homophobe, racist barbarians who throw missiles(paper cups) at the England players.The F1 brigade had their mouthpieces in Vettel and Hamilton claiming Hungarians should not be so homophobic and everybody has a right to love each other-they obviously had not even read the law over which the furor started as there is just like everywhere else a vibrant gay nightlife in Budapest.
There is no problem when lines of Dutch football fines pissed on the walls of homes in lines in the centre of Budapest in broad daylight.No problem for England fans who broke into Wembley then proceeded to trash anything and anyone Italian after the Euro final.
Hundreds of Hungarian fans were ordered off buses at the Austrian/German border this Summer on route to the Germany v. Hungary match then made to wait 4 hours whilst police dogs searched the buses and mugshots were taken of all fans without their permission.No problem for the German fan at the match who provoked the Hungarian players by running on to the pitch and waiving his rainbow flag in front of the team during the national anthem.5 fans were held in cells after the game without charges for 1 month in Munich.
If your average person cannot see the outright double standards on show then they are blind frankly.
I can't get my head around the fact that EUFA, FIFA and our own FA can't get their heads around the fact that Eastern European countries, particularly FSU countries do not like black people.
Southgate's charges taking the knee from now until Kingdom come will not make a scrap of difference whatsoever to alter the opinion of the Eastern tribes view on black folks. Stop f*cking kneeing.
