@DaleJohnsonESPN VAR wasn’t needed, but what did you make of the drop ball in the Bournemouth vs Liverpool game. Should the ref have blown?

Anything for the VAR Review?
Seems to have been a quiet weekend generally...

Michael D Higgins's Holocaust Memorial Day appearance has caused disbelief in London. Perhaps Higgins would welcome this, seeing it as proof of his ethical stature. But here the image of an intellectually vain man prevails, writes Finn McRedmond irishtimes.com/opinion/2025/0…

@grange_hillel @rtenews - I trust the ICJ judgement more than some rando.
- Holocaust distortion accusation laughable.
- blood libel implies religious involvement, this is colonialism, simple.
- Zionists in Palestine are not Semites.
- dunno how the Soviets in 1984 invented the Gaza genocide of 2024
English
@bacoxy @rtenews Notion there’s genocide in Gaza is
- a lie
- form of Holocaust distortion
- modern blood libel
- antisemitic invocation of Jews’ worst trauma
- propoganda invented by Soviets in 1984*
*30 yrs after Israel refused to be client state & 47 yrs after Stalin voted to setup Israel

A number of people have left, and others were removed from a Holocaust memorial event at the Mansion House in Dublin in protest over President Michael D Higgins' speech

@DaleJohnsonESPN "In the Premier League, it's exceptionally rare for the VAR to go so far back." If you supported Liverpool you'd see how many times these exceptions seem to happen for decisions impacting Liverpool. Be it a quick fire Dogso decision when previous ones took ages or these examples.

@DaleJohnsonESPN Bit of a pointless one, but from what you know of the "Challenge" system being trialled, are there limits to what can be challenged, for example would corners be included?
English
@DaleJohnsonESPN I'm sure you saw the footage of the Saliba red card for Dogso. The level of discussion on that was extensive before they landed on their decision. They had to talk their way to a red. How come that level of discussion doesn't appear to have taken place for Robertson red?
English
The VAR Review is live!

📌 Diop / Pereira red cards?

@TheOnlyGuru Famine in Ethiopia, MLK references in his lyrics, Ms Sarajevo, Good Friday Agreement... This cunt has been preaching to us all from on high for decades, ramming his perspective down our throats... Suddenly silence on the Gazan Genocide... Wonder why?
English
@alicub44 @bluebullkev @stevethewall @stripe @patrickc @BDSmovement No emojis here. Feel free to give your definition of Zionism. Though when it comes to the definition of words I think you may struggle. Israeli supporters tend to try to redefine words that already have definitions, such as genocide & antisemitism.

So disappointed to see Co. Tipperary’s Patrick Collison, co-founder of @stripe happily doing business in Tel Aviv yesterday while Israel is slaughtering thousands of innocents. This lad must either live in a bubble or he’s complicit. Bye bye @stripe. @patrickc @ipsc @BDSmovement
Patrick Collison@patrickc
Great to be back in Tel Aviv. I missed this run.

@stevethewall @stripe @patrickc @BDSmovement You won't see a bad word said about Israel by any of the tech bros... Same with Bono. When there's money involved the blinkers go on.

@AdamCrafton_ Journalists from western countries can no longer sit in judgement on countries like Saudi Arabia. They're allowing a genocide to go unpunished... Hold your own leaders to account before harping on about other countries.
English
FIFA’s bid evaluation for Saudi Arabia 2034 is out. Their risk assessment of Saudi human rights: medium. Which begs the question as to what might be required to get a “high”.
English
@martynziegler This upsets you more than Israel still being involved in any FIFA competition?
English
@MiguelDelaney Miggsy, any chance you'd lay off the bogeyman that is Saudi and focus on Fifas refusal to punish Israels FA for an ongoing genocide? Surely there's a money angle in there somewhere 🤷
English
Amnesty describe it as "an astonishing whitewash", and criticise how Fifa ignored their own report to provide compensation for migrant workers in Qatar

Miguel Delaney@MiguelDelaney
Fifa bid reviewers have given Saudi Arabia 2034 the "highest ever evaluation score" even though they don't even yet know when the World Cup will be played and the report references 40-degree summer heat (and cities suggested aren't yet built, let alone stadiums).
