@ColinPep1 Easter’s basically the Premier League of holidays now, fully commercialised. Other festivals are still observed primarily in their religious form, so that’s what gets shown. I don’t think it’s worth getting angry/frustrated about.

Even a Muslim club can acknowledge Christians. Far better than the crap messages put out by most English clubs

@ColinPep1 It has always been bunnies and eggs though really hasn’t it. Because that’s what the majority associate with Easter. Christian religious holidays were kidnapped by the big corporates ages ago to make more money. You can’t blame football clubs for a societal change 🤣

@cafcpaul2 It’s just irritating that clubs are quick to use religious symbolism for other faiths, but Christianity gets bunnies and eggs

@_ethanferrie @Boro Your nonsense opinions need to be regulated REDDDD ARRRMMMYYY #cafc

@Boro Long throws need to be regulated. Throw in meant to be to get the ball back in play quickly not used as a set piece which takes you 30 seconds to take

Coady scores for Charlton. 🔴 0-1 ⚪️ '59

@EFL Wonder why they’ve decided to do this? 🤑

From the 26/27 season, the #SkyBetChampionship Play-Offs will be expanded to six teams. Read more: efl.com/news/2026/marc… #EFL

@AlexJPMiller He was good for us. Got us back on track and then moved on.

🚨Understand a bid team led by Charlie Methven are among the parties interested in the acquisition of Sheffield Wednesday - but word is that time is against them when it comes to making a real go at it. Story as we have it👇 thestar.co.uk/sport/football… #SWFC🦉

@simonfrysua What a great photo. I can almost smell the fried onions.

Not the result we wanted, but a much better performance. Punished for not taking our chances. #cafc #Championship

@Lewiswheeler__ Why are you such an angry young man?

All the people quote retweeting this earlier with ‘how can you want Jones out’ I ask you the question how fucking blind and stupid do you have to be to accept watching this absolute fucking honking football he produces. #cafc

@ValleyFloydFred Pointless tweet mate. Every ref in the EFL is awful.

@cafcpaul2 Did you read my whole tweet?

Leigh Doughty. Corrupt cheating bastard. Hope the club submit formal complaint to the EFL. Charlton were horrendous but he’s either too incompetent for the Championship or he’s part of a gambling syndicate. 6 yellow cards in 38 minutes?! #CAFC

Fair fucks to Pompey their fans and players showed up tonight. As for #cafc I thought the worst performance of the season at the scum was the turning point but tonight they somehow proved us wrong.

@MynameisNadia__ A few more skin cancer cases though. Swings and roundabouts I suppose

Sunbed sessions should be on the NHS. 50% of people's problems will clear up with a bit of UV light.

@RichSCawley @KGtopsnapper We forget he is only young. So frustrating but can provide magic. Needs a bit of mongrel in him to really kick on.

Nathan Jones pretty much confirmed yesterday that #cafc will activate the 12-month extension in Tyreece Campbell's contract. There is a desire for him to commit to a longer-term deal. 📷 @KGtopsnapper

@CCjakey I agree. Strange one

@CCjakey I wish he had a brain.

Campbell sulky attitude when he came on. Didn’t like that at all #cafc

@JWcafc87 That was unforgivable

Love Carey but he’s got too much of a taste for goal, wants the glory too often. Clarke clean through there for a simple squared pass across the 6 yard box. #cafc

Solid first half. Needed that goal. QPR can’t be as bad in the 2nd half surely #cafc

@RichSCawley Saved us from certain L2 football. Doing the basics well. Then not doing the basics well. Then being the best versions of ourselves and then not being the best versions of ourselves. Strange little goat but I’m quite fond of him.

Today is the two-year anniversary of Nathan Jones being appointed #cafc boss. How would you sum up his time in charge?

Seeing the video of Robert Sanchez telling the Chelsea fans to relax as it was only half time, made me want to talk about something that has been on my mind for a while: why football stadiums are becoming more impatient, more toxic and polarised. The pandemic changed our routines and it accelerated a transformation that was already happening in society: overnight, our lives moved onto screens. We watched sport through devices, we debated online, we consumed information in fragments and, importantly for this point, we lived inside a constant stream of opinions. And with that, something else grew stronger: extremisation. We have become less able to accept what doesn’t match our own perception. The world has turned into a place where difference is a threat and disagreement feels personal.  Even when those opinions are built on incomplete information, we treat them as unquestionable truths. The most important voice is no longer the most informed one, but the loudest one, the strongest in the moment. And football, as always, reflects society. In stadiums now, we increasingly see impatience that would have been unthinkable years ago. Fans protesting a team even before half-time. Whistling after one mistake, even teams that are top of the table. Demanding changes immediately, as if football were a video game and not a complex sport shaped by confidence, form (both appearing in waves during a campaign), injuries, personalities, the limits of a squad or the finances. We forget that coaches work every day with these players. That they know the realities behind the scenes. That progress is not always instant. But patience has become rare, because the modern world trains us to expect immediate solutions. What’s worse is that creating a toxic atmosphere no longer feels like a problem for many supporters. The priority becomes: “I want what I want, and I want it now.” Even if it damages the team. Even if it poisons the environment. Even if it turns the stadium into a place of tension instead of support. I cannot think of anything worse than your own fans chanting, “you are going to be sacked in the morning.” This phenomenon is particularly noticeable in England right now, where protests and frustration inside grounds are becoming more common. Perhaps it is less frequent in Spain, where there is still — sometimes — a different relationship with suffering, with time, with process, with football clubs and the role of fans. At Real Madrid, the whistling to the team lasted a game and it was a protest against the sacking of Xabi Alonso, or a message to the players. The following game, they had moved on. I feel that is legitimate. But the trend is spreading.  The truth is hardly any club lives in happiness anymore. And I feel it is not because football has changed dramatically, but surely because society has. The modern fan experience is shaped by constant noise, constant judgement, constant outrage. And football, which used to be an escape, has become another space where people project frustration and impatience. It’s not really about the manager. Or the player. Or even the result. What we are hearing is basically about the world we have become. Although I do feel there is another way.  I know none of this is new. But how about if we thought we might not be right. Someone else might be. Or changing an opinion. Or listening a bit more. Or considering we might not know everything. And respect our differences.
