@PhilBlundell Considering that us and city are the only teams to have won all of our prem games in april, I'm not really sure why people are surprised

@teetootaler @Bd_irB_ll @MalteseInterfan Salah has better “creative” numbers because Salah did not play with the greatest RB of all time. Our style of play was Robben breaking a defense, sliderule pass to Lahm, Lahm cross. We also played with a true AM which meant Robben broke defenses, passed to Muller, square to Gomez

You could have the entire Footballia catalog beamed into your brain and the answer sure as hell still isn't Robben

@will_owen9 Most entertaining championship I've ever watched, gutting as a Scotland fan, but so much fun to watch. Frances last 2 games having 90 and 94 points is insane

@Carl_M79 He's not right, last night was 1.90xG compared to 0.59xG on Tuesday night. That's where you take charge of the interview as a leader and talk up your players instead of arguing over statistics, engaging with it just gives it weight and distracts from a good win.

@PhilBlundell If the refs aren't going to enforce time wasting, then football needs to change the rules. Reduce the game from 90 to 60/70 mins and stop the clock whenever the ball is out of play.

@B_Rabbit843 Apologise to John Davidson and everyone with tourettes then? Or do you not care that your ignorance harmed them?

Since none of you wanna post a screenshot where I corrected myself, I decided to do it for you. If you see this screenshot and STILL try to accuse me of something, you're ignorant. Plain and simple. I'm gonna get back to posting my nerd stuff and that's the end of that.

Hordes of white people mobbing Black people telling us that we must either deny the racism that occurred or be called ableist. I finally got frustrated and said "Then fuck it, I guess I'm ableist then." I do wish I'd chosen my words more carefully, but I do not regret snapping.

Dear me. One thing the past 48 hours have taught us is that there is a shocking lack of awareness about Tourette’s syndrome. Hopefully the unfortunate Baftas incident will help to right that.

@UjuAnya Are you going to show him empathy for his neurological condition? Or are you going to continue to ask a disabled man to grovel at your feet because of his disability, because you are an ableist freak?

John Davidson’s apology was inadequate, because he didn’t acknowledge the harm his tic caused Delroy Lindo and Michael B. Jordan, which—of course—was not his fault. His “sorry” wouldn’t have been for culpability or ill intent, but to show empathy for the Black people he harmed.

Western language limitations are so clear in this BAFTA discourse, because you can 100% say “sorry” to acknowledge harm and show empathy for someone’s pain EVEN IF IT WASN’T YOUR FAULT. Africans do it all the time using sorry-translated words like ndo, pele, ashia, pole, etc.

@HendrickD82 @arrongo1068 Should be a foul on the other player, rewarding players for stepping under a player in the air is really dangerous

@DaleJohnsonBBC Thats ridiculous, football needs to protect players in the air. If players can draw fouls by putting themselves in the landing zone of someone in the air, it will lead to dangerous landings and serious injuries

@Millar_Colin Thats ridiculous, football needs to protect players in the air, like every other sports with aerial challenges. If you put yourself in the landing zone of a player in the air, you should be the player committing the foul

@MaceAhWindu I genuinely think allowing it to stay in the broadcast was deliberate, they put a mic near him and had 2 hours to edit it out. They knew they'd receive a bunch of controversy about editing out pro-Palestine statements, so they hoped a racism vs ableism discourse would cover them

If anyone in this situation deserves condemnation, it's the people and organization that allowed this situation to happen, and then neglected to edit it out before it was broadcast two hours later. Any other take on this is malicious toward someone that doesnt deserve it.

Mfers dont know how to fathom nuance and youre rushing to be right on social media rather than look at the situation with empathy for everyone involved. If your takeaway is that Davidson, who has tourrettes, meant to say it, or that Delroy and Jordan should get over it, ur wrong
Yerrr 🇵🇸@MaceAhWindu

I dont like the way some of yall are talking to black folks with Tourrettes who wanted to weigh in on this BAFTA shit. Because if there was anyone that you should probably listen to on this subject, it's them.

Arne Slot “doesn't really think that Rio Ngumoha is quite ready for regular football” according to @Ian_Ladyman_DM Trent when given his chance at just 18.

@ATwinEarth @jenn26265 @VittorioLuigi2 @BrainAblaze @judeinlondon The man with a severe neurological condition, which makes him far more likely to commit suicide than the average person, should partake in a "social dance", instead of just being treated with empathy and understanding, slightly easing the burden of his life's suffering

Running over someone’s foot with a wheelchair is an accident. I cannot stress enough the coprolalia is more like asking someone who is having a seizure to apologise for hitting you in the face as they seized.
Arlen Parsa@arlenparsa

I absolutely have sympathy for people who struggle with disabilities. But if you use a wheelchair and accidentally run over someone’s foot you instantly apologize The lack of any apology whatsoever from him — after hurting so many people— sets his own cause back. BBC failed too.

@judeinlondon If I mispronounce your name because I don’t yet how to say it, I don’t not apologize because it’s not my fault I didn’t know how to say your name correctly yet, I apologize because it could potentially offend you.
