    [Football] Liverpool fans plan 1,700-strong legal action

    The three times I've been to Liverpool for Albion matches I've got on great with the locals in the pub before and after. I can't vouch for west country Liverpool fans, but then neither could people from Liverpool...

    [Football] Liverpool fans plan 1,700-strong legal action

    Congratulations, I was wondering how many replies it would take before someone chipped-in this with "hilarious" comment and it turns-out it was only 3. How those fans were treated that night and the lies that the authorities told to cover-up their ineptitude is disgusting. And if this law-suit...

    Russia has been interfering far wider than that... in the UK - Brexit, in the US - Trump.

    [Football] Rangers to defy UEFA and sing “God Save The King”

    OK let's make this simple: 1. this is a club not national competition 2. to avoid nationalistic hubris national anthems are not permitted to be played by clubs before matches 3. however, there is nothing to stop fans singing whatever they like 4. none of the songs you list are official...

    [Football] Rangers to defy UEFA and sing “God Save The King”

    Sorry Malta Seagull, but to be accurate Rangers FC did actually play GSTQ over the PA system in the ground and the fans sang along. This is a clear breach of tournament rules which are put in place for very sensible reasons...

    [Football] Rangers to defy UEFA and sing “God Save The King”

    I'm sorry but there is a right and wrong answer here; the rules of the competition are that it's a club not national competition and therefore national anthems are not appropriate. We all know that Rangers fans are staunch unionists and so breaking the national anthem rule is making a political...

    [Football] Rangers to defy UEFA and sing “God Save The King”

    Or turning your argument on its head... British clubs want to participate in UEFA competitions and abide by the rules but only if and when it suits them. The rules state that no national anthems should be played before matches to turn them into nationalistic events; this is a club...

    [Football] Rangers to defy UEFA and sing “God Save The King”

    Nope, not the slightest bit; I've read your post several times and I still don't get how I've been whooshed. Anyway, it's better that I've been whooshed than a fellow Albion fan be an EDL type. Oh and I have been on NSC a lot longer than my modest 500 posts suggest; my account got messed-up a...

    I sincerely hope that Chelsea have a nightmare tonight and that G.Potter gets stuck in roadworks in a 3 hour drive back to Hove (in the rain)

    [Football] A genuine question - what did the UK gain from Indian occupation?

    Out come those rose tinted spectacles again... For peoples regaining their independence suddenly going it alone was a scary prospect. The Commonwealth offered a small level of reassurance and as the UK is discovering now, going it alone is a lonely next step.

    [News] Anyone planning to travel to London for the funeral?

    There was carnage at Green Park tube yesterday (Saturday) when thousands of people (lemmings?) descended wanting to deposit a bunch of flowers at the gates of Buckingham Palace so that they could do a Face Book post of themselves live at a moment of "history". They had to close the station. It...

    [Football] A genuine question - what did the UK gain from Indian occupation?

    Please refer back to the OP and my response, they both referred to British OCCUPATION, not Empire. And in a grown-up world it's not about hating your own country's history, it's about not wearing rose-tinted spectacles and accepting a pretend version of history in which our ancestors were always...
