I’ve seen Bellingham play against us at our place. He hides. Keeps the ball when he should pass & rolls around a lot when he loses the ball hoping for a foul.
Not saying he’s a bad player but he gets his own way as to where he plays. To the detriment of other players. At this level a player should be adaptable especially a midfielder

He reminds me of Gerrard, it’s all about him. His decision making is what makes him look a star when it works & others ineffective when it doesn’t. It usually doesn’t.

Neville stuck up for Foden & explained why he was isolated but Carragher aggressive attack on Foden was a jealous rage.

My experience was a loss of trust in the journalist. At some point, one has to expect principles to matter. I put that on her, not the paper, which I still read, btw.

Fair enough.
Which paper ?
And good luck for the next period in the land of the free -:)

OMG.
Give you one chance.
Do you think this is absolute nonsense?
Clue…………
It’s absolute nonsense.
We live in a world that I don’t think I belong in.
Called it out as BS as soon as I saw the headlines but we have people, no offence to anyone, that need to ask the question as to whether this is real.
No, no, no and some more no.
It’s some irrelevant thing that has tried to secure an insurance claim on a none event that has been sent to Neptune with her moonbeam tail between her legs.
Next steps. Daily Mail for a £500 M+S voucher to tell the world how MCFC swept me under the carpet after I spent 5 mins in the MRI A &E plotting my EH story.

So it was a thing then?

That is what the guy asked, was it a thing or made up, it wasn't made up because some shithouse put a claim in.

It hasn't been made up by the Daily fail.

He's nowhere near Stephen Gerrard as a player.

I wasn’t a fan of Gerrard, I thought Gerrard could do things that Lampard & Scholes couldn’t do but wouldn’t do less to achieve more. It used to get on my nerves when people say he was in a bad Dipper team & then you see he played with serial winners, domestic, world & European honours.
 
On the Foden thing - I'm quite happy if the press got their way and he wasn't picked. If he is so bad - don't pick him. Phil and Bernie (amongst others) haven't looked as good this season because they haven't had Rods, John, Manu, Nathan and Kev playing behind them.
Any of them would walk into the England team. Phil is playing with lesser players at International level and expected to produce the same level. Won't happen. Pull their punch bag out of the team and let them write about somebody new. I couldn't be less interested in the national team.
 
BBC bent as fuck again.

In reply to the comment “ 115 charges and punishment gone worryingly quiet” by some fuckwit moron I posted “ punishment for charges is only warranted if they’re proven”.
I then got an email stating my comment had been removed as deemed offensive!!!

What the actual fuck is going on??
It really is incredible.
Freedom of speech totally overridden.

Happens all the time mate.
It took me a long time and a lot of shouting at a computer screen to realise that the only option is to not engage.
At all.
Don't get hooked by the baited headline (it won't represent the story)
Don't read the comments (they'll just be ignorant media fed sheep bleatings about some lie or misrepresentation or another)
Don't comment back (it'll only get deleted and you'll go mad with the injustice of it)

I know we should be able to read things and comment on them in much the same way as anybody else can, but the deck is stacked against us and we can't. Unfortunately the system isn't ours.

It's bollocks anyway, who really gives a fuck about educating these people? They won't or can't learn. I bet most of their teachers gave up at some point too.

They don't like your reply because it doesnt fit their narrative. God forbid if a grown argument broke out with two sides of the story being equally told.

Appeal it and also ask for an exact reason it was deemed offensive
