“At the moment they have a little bit of hope, they have a little bit of hope to qualify, we kill that minute one, we press, we aggressive, fucking chances, goals, and we fucking kill ’em man, we fucking qualify today lads, we fucking qualify"

(Spurs go 2-0 down after 19 mins)
“All right lads we know how much this game means with Christmas, three points, top four and it’s a fucking London derby so let’s fucking win this game"

(Spurs lose 2-0 at home in their biggest game of the season)
“In two hours we are six points from the Champions League position, you are two hours away from your dinner and you have a day off tomorrow. Fucking hell we don’t need more motivation to win this game than this altogether. Come on then"

(THIS is why they pay Jose the big bucks)
“Eh come on uh guys let’s do the job aggressive from the start 90-95 minutes it’s on our minds NOW FOCUS HUH COME ON LET’S GO!”

True leadership from Lloris here.
"Eh come on guys huh it’s a big game for us huh we need to feel it from the start guys huh it’s going to be a BIG BATTLE HEY LET’S WIN THIS GAME COME ON!”

(Spurs only draw)
What did Jose and Harry tell the lads today?

Another man without the first damn clue what he's talking about.

When an icon as great and heroic as @Martina speaks, I listen.

She knows that women's spaces and women's sports are under grave threat. She also knows how unbelievably homophobic the entire discourse has become.
Martina = mensch. And all time legend.

Rothenberg = who?
And if I see one more inadequate, entitled, clueless male on this website come out with pathetic, condescending beyond belief, passive aggressive bullshit like:

"It's such a bummer"

"I'm so disappointed"

"It's so heartbreaking"

I am going to scream.

You pathetic, odious, vile little plankton.

Gary Neville won 8 Premier League titles, 2 Champions Leagues and 85 England caps.

You got relegated with Newcastle, relegated twice with QPR, handed Man City the title by assaulting three of their players, and won 1 England cap.
That one lousy England cap was as part of our worst team since 1993. The ONLY one not to qualify - and you weren't even good enough to be picked for it more than once.

In fact, you have MORE CONVICTIONS FOR VIOLENT CRIME than England caps, you absolute waste of skin.
Gary Neville can tell his grandkids about the absolutely magnificent career he had in the game.

You can tell yours about the time you stubbed a lit cigar out in a youth player's eye.

Or when you violently assaulted a teammate, leaving him unconscious with a detached retina.

Today, in the world of sensible centrist liberal media 🙄🙄🙄

1. Thomas L. Friedman is worried for the world and tries to explain what's happening to it. He explains what's happening to it by... saying THIS. Image
Yes folks. The difference between Dubai and Gaza isn't that one is staggeringly rich in natural resources and the other is a rock. And it isn't that one is independent and the other has been illegally occupied and blockaded for so long.

It's 'visionary leadership'.
I'll tell you one of the very many things wrong with this awful world, Tom. It's that racist Orientalists like you - utterly incapable of EVER treating Arab people as equals - get given such a high profile platform to pump out such constant ignorant beyond imagination drivel.

THREAD: Argentina. Why has this happened - and what's going to happen now?

The first thing to say about why this has happened is pretty simple. The options facing a desperate, frantic Argentinian public were APPALLING. All of them.
In August, at the primaries, the mostly centre-right Juntos por Cambio (which governed, very badly, through Mauricio Macri between 2015 and 2019) voters made a dreadful, in my view indefensible blunder.

They selected Patricia Bullrich over Horacio Rodriguez Larreta.
Bullrich is right wing. She's also maybe the most completely talentless politician I have EVER seen in this part of the world.

She's charmless, utterly unlikeable, and has made an absolutely preposterous political journey from militant leftist to now, the far right,

When the provisional IRA tried to assassinate the entire British government, the British government did not respond by carpet bombing Belfast for weeks on end.

Nor did it impose a 16-year-long siege on the island of Ireland.
Nor did it cut off electricity, water, food, fuel and communications.

In fact, much of the world - including, notably, the US - understood that the nationalist community in Northern Ireland had an entirely legitimate grievance. And were victims of an historic injustice.
UK politicians wouldn't have even dreamt of such a response. Had it been attempted, we'd have been ostracised by the entire world, maybe forever.

And in the end, peace was achieved. Draining the swamp of support for terrorism through dialogue, power-sharing and democracy.

"Research by the IJPR shows about 2% of the population of Great Britain can be characterised as “hardcore” antisemites - defined as those believing multiple anti-Jewish tropes simultaneously - whereas 70% is found to hold no anti-Jewish views at all".theguardian.com/world/2023/oct…
"A 2021 survey by the institute, conducted two months after the last war in Gaza, found that almost three-quarters of Jewish adults in the UK felt that non-Jews held them responsible for the actions of the Israeli government during the conflict..."
"More than half said that public and media criticism of Israel at the time made them feel that Jews were not welcome in the UK".

Several things here.

1. Anyone attacking or insulting British Jews for the actions of Israel is an antisemitic arsehole.
