Genuine question - is this something that is done by other home fans every time the Scousers play away? Or is it just being expected from us, in the hope that we don't do it so that the media can go in to a complete frenzy and use it as a stick to leather us with?

Double over the scousers, two pints, sunny day, chicken roast dinner, bank holiday tomorrow, what a time to be alive

@philedsphil @arascouet @VigilantFox Please point to where I said it was better. Reading continues to be hard, it seems.

@Mr_Fitzgerald @arascouet @VigilantFox Maher likely hadn’t read it. The fact that UAE cut scholarships for fear of Muslim radicalism is somehow better? 😆

What’s happening in the UK has Bill Maher realizing just how “f*cked up” the country has become. “Every time I think this country’s too woke, I look at what’s going on in your country, and I’m like, ‘Wow, these people are really f*cked up.’” “How did England get so leftist?” The UK is now banning the sale of cigarettes to anyone born after 2009… EVER. That means if it’s the year 2040, and you’re 30 years old because you were born in 2010, you still can’t buy cigarettes. It might sound like a good thing to some, but Maher can see it’s just another wing of the nanny state deciding what you can or can’t do as an adult. “It’s illegal to buy cigarettes. Why? I mean, don’t people get to make their own mistakes? Don’t we get to do what we want to do? I mean, you’re an adult, and you can’t have a cigarette if you want?” Maher’s British guest suddenly got defensive when he pointed out how the United Arab Emirates paused government scholarships for students wanting to study in the UK, citing fears they could become “radicalized” over there. “Fake news,” she said. “This idea London is a no-go zone… people walking around with the Sharia law… A lot of that’s whipped up.” “Two Jews did get stabbed this week,” Maher fired back. This is a two-minute exchange worth watching.

@arascouet @VigilantFox They are cutting scholarships but not for fear of “leftist” radicalisation, which is what Maher immediately assumes (because he has an agenda). I know reading is hard, but I would suggest you that before you post an article you first read it and avoid making yourself look a fool.

@VigilantFox So FT columnist Gillian Tett says the UAE slashing scholarships for its students to study in the UK due to fears of radicalisation is “fake news.” Turns out the FT reported this piece of news. 🫠🫠

bill maher is genuinely one of the dumbest people on the planet

“What is the charge?”

The US hasn’t got the first idea how to host international sporting events because they do not give a solitary fuck about people beyond their wallets. We’ll be hearing about the World Cup Credit Crunch for years afterwards.

@BBiso @scotlandscoeff1 And how do you suppose fans procure a private vehicle for each game they attend? Do you perhaps imagine the cost to hire one might go up a little bit?

@scotlandscoeff1 Doesn't negate all of what you're saying, but what you're missing here is that Gillette stadium parking is HEAVILY supported by private parking lots within walking distance to the stadium. Which is how the stadium regularly supports the numerous events it hosts.

The '530 page book of lies' also known as the '2026 World Cup Bid Document' stated that America would prioritise public transport over private vehicle use. Calling a stadium "Boston stadium" but the stadium is actually a totally inaccessible 25 miles away is like Scotland hosting a tournament at the "Glasgow Stadium" - when the game's actually at Rugby Park in Kilmarnock. To then quadruple the price of trains - which can only take 20,000 people - and charge $175 for a car parking space is an absolute abomination. There are only 5,000 car parking spots. Even if every car has 3 people in it, that still leaves nearly 30,000 fans attempting to get to the game by bus? This is going to be fucking carnage. Folk paying $1,000 for a ticket and missing the game is an absolute certainty. Tickets which by the way the 2026 bid book stated would range from $21-$323. At Euro 2028 there will be fans that get match tickets to ALL THREE of Scotland's group games, their train travel to every game, food and drink at all 3 games - and still have a good bit of change from the $175 car parking charge in "Boston".

@JDRSlapshot @jrwhiteRI @scotlandscoeff1 @ziplamak And 2k to hire a car

@jrwhiteRI @scotlandscoeff1 @ziplamak Yeah probably gonna be $500 to park at The Lafayette House 😂

@JAFFNCommunity much to discuss

At what fucking point is enough enough?????? The state of this place is actually making me not want to live, all I do is work and have no fucking money to do ANYTHING fun, and even if I do I am anxious about it this is a fucking joke

Making the separating the art from the artist argument with JK Rowling is hilarious. You’re adults talking about Harry Potter. Have some self respect.
