Palestine's national team played its first European match in a generation against the Basque Country, in a sold-out San Mamés stadium. While the Basque players walked onto the pitch with children by their side... The Palestinian players carried white roses instead. Roses for the children they can no longer hold. Roses for the thousands of innocent lives stolen in Israel's genocide. They didn't come for victory on the scoreboard. They came to remind the world: Palestine still breathes. Palestine still fights. Palestine is not alone. In the heart of the Basque people who know what it means to resist nearly 50,000 voices roared in solidarity. Football is never just a game when your people are being erased. This is more than a match. This is memory. This is defiance. This is humanity refusing to look away. Free Palestine. From the river to the sea.

@cplusnumbers Aidan Toal is the Grandfather of both Ethan and Eoin

ethan rafferty (eoin toal's cousin) namechecks aidan toal as a big player in road bowls, so unlikely to be a coincidence imo

99% sure that mr aidan toal in this video is the grandfather of bolton wanderers defender eoin. #bwfc youtu.be/QiCQJFgJPsQ?si…

What a day for the Grimley Clan! Niall and Liam win @maddenraparees 1st ever Armagh Senior Title while Ryan helps @LoughmacroryGAA to their 1st Tyrone Senior Title. Has to be 1st time thats happened?

Athletic Club Bilbao @AthleticClub showed its support for Palestine by hosting a group of Palestinian refugees from the Basque Country. They received a powerful standing ovation from the entire San Mamés stadium — the first LaLiga team to officially pay tribute to Palestine.

Can you tell us how he died, where, and why?

This aged well

Pep Guardiola has implicitly pointed out at the flotilla and Greta, shattering the complicit world into pieces. And he is right in every word he said. “The next children killed will be ours.”

@TheNotoriousMMA Didn’t know you could read and write Conor. Thought you used your hands to tap out.

🗣️ "There should be a flotilla of Irish naval vessels.” Liam Cunningham has said the Freedom Flotilla bound for Gaza is “doing the job we’re supposed to be doing”. The flotilla left Italy on Sunday, carrying food, medical supplies and baby items. #VMNews

Group of death? Group of mildly inconvenient flu like symptoms.

'Always the bridesmaid, never the bride' The Kop always delivers! 😂

Today’s Ian Knox cartoon.

🇮🇪 Beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig dona cairde uilig Athletic ag ceiliúradh inniú! Blessed to have such great support from Ireland. 🙌 Go raibh craic den scoth agaibh inniú! #StPatricksDay #UniqueInTheWorld 🦁

And America will, at every opportunity, pretend to be the world's conscious! They proclaim to be leaders of the free world. The sooner the world turns their back on them the better!

Armagh's marauding goalkeeper Ethan Rafferty is a well-deserved man of the match.

The Comeback is great than the setback Ethan Rafferty made first appearance for @Armagh_GAA in 579 days after suffering a broken leg and dislocated ankle in a club match in July 2023💪

Someone tell trent he isn't playing in white yet

Hillsborough campaigner Scraton refuses OBE. “I could not accept an honour tied in name to the 'British Empire'. "In my teaching I remain a strong critic of the historical, cultural and political contexts of imperialism and their international legacy." bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

Remember Michael Martin and @SimonHarrisTD found it 'chilling' that Sinn Fein proposed (based on advocacy from the general public) an independent peer led review of RTE coverage of the war in Gaza. Headlines like this are ok with them..

Protestors in Kerry Ireland 🇮🇪: ‘In a year 17,000 children have been murdered in Gaza 🇵🇸 There are 17,000 children aged 0-9 in Kerry. Imagine the whole county without children’ Ireland 🇮🇪 stands with Palestine 🇵🇸 It’s a genocide. Stop selling arms to Israel 🇮🇱 now. 🇮🇪 🤝 🇵🇸
