May of not been the decision I wanted and to get so close to my dream I’ve worked my whole life for has been extremely disappointing. Nevertheless, made some mates for life. Thank you for putting up with the language barrier😂😂 Onto the next one… #rufc

@OM_01_ @SunderlandAFC Ballard got hold of his hair. No point in arguing about it im not changing my opinion and neither are you. Most of my mates think same as me a few agree with you.
English

@Jag0272 @SunderlandAFC Disagree that short pulling happens during every 50/50
Or disagree that Ballard has gone to hold his shirt and accidentally caught some hair?
English

@Jag0272 @SunderlandAFC He’s grabbed the players shirt (as is done in every challenge between strikers and CBs) and has ended up getting hold of the shirt and also 2 strands of hair accidentally. It’s not ballards fault the wolves player has stupid long hair.

@Miners_Strike Aged miners cup still played every Good Friday between Murton Colliery FC and Blackhall Colliery FC as a charity match, this year raised over £800 for Macmillan. Some community spirit still exists in the old pit villages.

@KevinInChrist @swin14993 @Inevitablewest Choices Kevin, life choices for example choosing to go out and stab innocent people. I think he got off a lot easier than the two people he stabbed.
English

@swin14993 @Jag0272 @Inevitablewest There are ways to subdue a suspect without booting them in the head.
English

@KevinInChrist @Jrfm25 @Inevitablewest And how much of a chance did he give the 2 people he stabbed?
English

@KevinInChrist @Inevitablewest He was still holding the knife. Whos life should be protected here a man whos just stabbed 2 people or 2 police officers doing their jobs?
English

@KemiBadenoch Aye because the Conservative Party maintained really high standards over theor 14 years in government.

@NathonSpeltBad @captgouda24 @DaveDeek I agree. I live in one of those mining towns in County Durham and thats exactly what happened. Pit shut, shops closed, pubs and clubs followed. Absolutely horrendous times and some places still havent recovered nearly 40 years later.
English

@Jag0272 @captgouda24 @DaveDeek I’m not saying that mining in those poor conditions was good, but that destroying the only source of employment in mining towns, and destroying every other industry, did nothing but put people out of a job with no help to get them back into one, leaving communities to rot.

Thatcher haters annoy me because they all dislike her for the wrong reasons. The coal miners were a terrorist outfit who wanted to be paid forever. People just do not grasp how malignant, how cancerous, how parasitic, the trade unions were.

It is no surprise that Britain is struggling; after all, they were for many years a communist country.
English

@NathonSpeltBad @captgouda24 @DaveDeek The other thing to remember is that a lot of miners had their lives cut short by industrial diseases linked to coal mining
English

@captgouda24 @DaveDeek What other jobs existed in mining towns that were built solely around the mine? When every family in that town lives off of the wage paid by working down in the pits?
English

@captgouda24 @DaveDeek The coal is still there. It still exists. Millions of tons of it under our feet
English

@DaveDeek well, they can get a different job. or, perhaps the government should pay them forever, to take coal that no longer exists out of mines that should close. one seems better than the other.
English

@captgouda24 The coal miners were hard working men who only wanted to protect their jobs and feed their families. Coal miners also left the mines during both world wars to patriotically defend their country many paying the ultimate price.
