Apologies, unlike many if I've not seen the match I feel it's a bit unfair to comment or rant on a player or match based on second hand information.
All the best to you too.

I have watched a couple more videos and opinion pieces on this and it saddens me that most are presented as cheering for ones team. My team was in the right and it was all the other team's fault. I know that this is where we are at at the moment but it really is pitiful. It seems to me that the conflict between the two people at the end could have been put to bed by either of them standing down. Neither did so perhaps they should both have a look at themselves.
What it appears to me to boil down to is the one of the people is standing their ground while the other is acting aggressively and getting in their face. I can't find that section in the full length version of the video posted earlier so it is hard to say which is which.
From the full length video it does appear to me that the school group behaved disrespectfully, the religious nutters behaved far worse and the Native Americans were trying to calm things between them down. No body involved comes out of it looking particularly good and those commentators and news services that are using the situation to cheer for their team also come out of it looking crap.

This story is getting crazier by the day.
All this Russian stuff is a diversion, apparently, It's all part of an English (sic) plot to overthrow Trump and make the US part of the British empire again.
"All of the tentacles of the Russian investigation go back to Great Britain. The monarchy sees America as the wayward child and wants to pull it back into the empire."

There you go: it's all down to Brenda ... she's probably behind Brexit too as she wants us to rule France. It makes sense now

With all this business about the Government Shutdown with government employees not being paid I was wondering if and when this extends to Trumps security team ? It could well focus the president's mind if he was aware that the guys who are expected to take a bullet for him are not getting paid.
Cool. So once we've got rid of Trump, does the US automatically fall under British rule?

To the citizens of the United States of America from Her Sovereign Majesty Queen... Elizabeth II:
In light of your immediate failure to financially manage yourselves and also in recent years your tendency to elect incompetent Presidents of the USA and therefore not able to govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective immediately. (You should look up 'revocation' in the Oxford English Dictionary.
Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths, and territories (except Kansas , which she does not fancy)
YourPrime Minister, Theresa May, will appoint a Governor for America without the need for further electio
Congress and the Senate will be disbanded. A questionnaire may be circulated sometime next year to determine whether any of you noticed
To aid in the transition to a British Crown dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect
1. The letter 'U' will be reinstated in words such as 'colour,' 'favour,' 'labour' and 'neighbour.' Likewise, you will learn to spell 'doughnut' without skipping half the letters, and the suffix '-ize' will be replaced by the suffix '-ise.'Generally, you will be expected to raise your vocabulary to acceptable levels. (look up 'vocabulary').
Using the same twenty-seven words interspersed with filler noises such as ''like' and 'you know' is an unacceptable and inefficient form of communication. There is no such thing as U.S. English. We will let Microsoft know on your behalf. The Microsoft spell-checker will be adjusted to take into account the reinstated letter 'u'' and the elimination of '-ize.' '
3. July 4th will no longer be celebrated as a holida
4. You will learn to resolve personal issues without using guns, lawyers, or therapists. The fact that you need so many lawyers and therapists shows that you're not quite ready to be independent. Guns should only be used for shooting grouse. If you can't sort things out without suing someone or speaking to a therapist, then you're not ready to shoot grous
5. Therefore, you will no longer be allowed to own or carry anything more dangerous than a vegetable peeler. Although a permit will be required if you wish to carry a vegetable peeler in public.
6. All intersections will be replaced with roundabouts, and you will start driving on the left side with immediate effect. At the same time, you will go metric with immediate effect and without the benefit of conversion tables. Both roundabouts and metrication will help you understand the British sense of humour.
7. The former USA will adopt UK prices on petrol (which you have been calling gasoline) of roughly $10/US gallon. Get used to it.)
8.You will learn to make real chips. Those things you call French fries are not real chips, and those things you insist on calling potato chips are properly called crisps. Real chips are thick cut, fried in animal fat, and dressed not with catsup but with vinegar
9. The cold, tasteless stuff you insist on calling beer is not actually beer at all. Henceforth, only proper British Bitter will be referred to as beer, and European brews of known and accepted provenance will be referred to as Lager. New Zealand beer is also acceptable, as New Zealand is pound for pound the greatest sporting nation on earth and it can only be due to the beer. They are also part of the British Commonwealth - see what it did for them. American brands will be referred to as Near-Frozen Gnat's Urine, so that all can be sold without risk of further confusion
10. Hollywood will be required occasionally to cast English actors as good guys. Hollywood will also be required to cast English actors to play English characters. Watching Andie Macdowell attempt English dialogue in Four Weddings and a Funeral was an experience akin to having one's ears removed with a cheese grater.
11. You will cease playing American football. There are only two kinds of proper football; one you call soccer, and rugby (dominated by the New Zealanders). Those of you brave enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which has some similarities to American football, but does not involve stopping for a rest every twenty seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour like a bunch of nancies)
12. Further, you will stop playing baseball. It is not reasonable to host an event called the World Series for a game which is not played outside of America . Since only 2.1% of you are aware there is a world beyond your borders, your error is understandable. You will learn cricket, and we will let you face the Australians (World dominators) first to take the sting out of their deliveries
13. You must tell us who killed JFK. It's been driving us mad.
14. An internal revenue agent (i.e. tax collector) from Her Majesty's Government will be with you shortly to ensure the acquisition of all monies due (backdated to 1776).
15. Daily Tea Time begins promptly at 4 p.m. with proper cups, with saucers, and never mugs, with high quality biscuits (cookies) and cakes; plus strawberries (with cream) when in season.
God Save the Queen!

Well worth a read to try and get some sanity back into this conversation about the kids and the Native Americans.

Roger Stone Jr, the US president’s former adviser, has been arrested as part of the special counsel's investigation into the Trump campaign and its links to Russia.
The FBI has charged Mr Stone on seven counts, involving witness tampering, obstruction and false statements about his interactions related to the release by WikiLeaks of hacked Democratic emails during the 2016 presidential election.

No, no, it was The Beatles wot started it. Good old Ringo and co.
And he also explains what May has been doing with her time recently. What an achievement that would be - dump Europe and gain America.

Q. Why was Roger Stone, former presidential adviser, arrested?
A. It was his turn.
