@MonicaLMarks @prospect_uk The greatest frustration is that there is, and has been for 10+ years, a chasm of genuine leadership from traditional major political parties, leaving many, especially younger people, looking to extreme solutions and opinions. That is where malevolent antisemitism thrives.

@MonicaLMarks @prospect_uk The problem with this piece imo is, while I agree on a lot, it ignores half the problem. Yes, the far right conspiracy theories and rising popularity are a huge threat. But Jews are equally shunned and targeted in increasingly mainstream spaces from the Left.

100% agree with this piece on the scourge of rising antisemitism from @prospect_uk. Having the courage to say this—and the nuanced, empathetic understanding to say it in a manner that cannot be easily instrumentalised to fuel yet more antisemitism—are key.

Conspiratorial ideas about Jewish power “distract our attention and understanding away from those who are actually responsible for horrific acts and the political systems that led us here,” writes Emily Hilton prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/religion…

@AVFCMarkM @hashtagMullins And yet when Villa got decisions against them at OT last season, you complained. Seems rather pot and kettle. Surely it is natural to feel agrieved when one team gets penalised for something that has gone unpunished in other games, with significant sporting consequences.

I’m a bit confused why referees correctly applying the rules seems to be so controversial… They can’t fucking win.

@willg1989 @hashtagMullins I was referring specifically to the Liverpool and Teal Madrid red cards. And I am utterly indifferent about both teams.

@BareLeft @Ankaman616 That situation is either a) impossible as the business would have no trade (what you’re suggesting in deliberately bad faith) Or b) the “CEO” is a cleaner. How much will they get paid? They’ll be paid as a cleaner, based on how much they make as a cleaner, but pay less tax.

Is a cleaning company with one CEO but no cleaners a viable business? Yes or no.
Richard@richardparke15

@BareLeft They should be on good, liveable wages. But a good CEO is fundamentally over 10 times as valuable

@AVFCMarkM @hashtagMullins “Why are people complaining about refs applying the laws” Also: “Yes they apply some of the laws inconsistently but as long as they do so to penalise teams I don’t like, that’s great” 🤯😂

@TheBluesFeed @CFCJacob90 On top of that, a new stadium in central London is hard to find a plot (not Battersea Power Station or Earls Court). New stadium could cost 1.5-2bn. That all adds up to 7bn easy just to break even and the business would still need to have a profitable model to be attractive

@TheBluesFeed @CFCJacob90 That’s some serious financing costs on an already hugely loss-making operating model. Refinancing of the debt next year will likely be at far higher than 3.25%. Could be 6-8%, which would likely 2-3x total debt after 10 years. Would need to be paid in full by new owner.

Protest all you like, but don’t pretend to understand finance. We’re owned by private equity they know what they’re doing. They haven’t spent billions to risk the club being seized by a bank….

No it's not a new standard. Pedro Neto got an extra game only last month for a similar thing. Maguire was always getting at least +1 and Manchester United knew that. He was going to get two games, but got a game back for past good behaviour.
The Swedish Rumble 🔰@SwedishRumble

So @DaleJohnsonBBC is this also a new standard now? Saying 'f....ing joke' = 1 game suspension. If it's not applied consistently -- is it because the rule is subjective? Players can say it with a different intonation?

@DaleJohnsonBBC @SwedishRumble Why is it not? I saw Cole Palmer say “you’ve gotta be fucking joking” when conceding vs City. What is it exactly that makes what Maguire said different from that? This feels like semantics to anyone with a grasp of conversational English.

@willg1989 @SwedishRumble Because it's about how it is said and that context. Players will say "FFS, ref" all the time, but that's just not the same kind of thing.

@SwedishRumble It does depend on the context. Players obviously swear all the time and often to officials.

@vxn_victor @Hosang What are we doing here? We’ve been hard to beat all season. But under Amorim we left loads of points on the table, despite creating high XG. We drew far too many games vs teams we should have beaten. Surely that is not even in question?

@vxn_victor @Hosang We didn’t have a CB pairing under Amorim. We had 3 at the back. Plenty of games under Amorim we conceded high quality chances, and on Monday we had more shots as well. We also could very well have equalised with 10 men despite all of that.

“5 at the back” was always bullshit. We were playing, when everyone is fit, Martinez, Shaw, Heaven, Amad, Dorgu, Bruno, Casemiro, Cunha, Mbeumo, Sesko. That’s one of the most attacking teams in the PL and one of United’s most attacking post-Fergie
UnitedMuppetiers@Muppetiers

@Hosang The football is, ironically, way more defensive than the supposed “5 at the back” manager. But the current aim seems to be pragmatism to secure points and CL. Whether that’s the same after summer is another question…

@vxn_victor @Hosang We dropped loads of points during AFCON and before, and were poor in that game vs Leeds. Last night we had a CB pairing lacking and aerially dominant agressor (Maguire is that) and a player who could compete physically and play with the ball (Mainoo is streets ahead of Ugarte).

@willg1989 @Hosang We drew against leeds with half the team out including bruno so die that agenda that his formation relied on everyone and we didn't even lose a game that period they were all out so what you on about

@Hosang @Johnny_Takes11 Indeed. I understand the idea of going with Ugarte, but in reality we’ve seen it too many times. Not at the level required and we just need to move on. It’s frustrating but that’s all the consequence of having barely any midfield options. If Devaney was around I’d be using him.

@Hosang @Johnny_Takes11 Ugarte doesn’t make us compact. His complete inability to keep up physically and get run past/played around makes us far more open. Agree that reluctantly Bruno should be dropping back and bringing in Mount, Fletcher or Lacey.

@Johnny_Takes11 Mainoo being the “glue” would still indicate questionable decision making. As you’d then move to playing Bruno in the 8 to replicate Mainoo, not add Ugarte in there. And even adding Ugarte, we still didn’t look compact.
