I don't thrive on these comments. I am mortified by them because I was stupid enough to give a one line reply that was open to ambiguity. I am as horrified by the news stories as anyone else.

I don't hold the views you think I do. I will be more careful about my comments in future.

Maybe it wasn't rounded and for that I am sorry. I am appalled by all acts of violence against people especially the incident you refer to.

War dehumanises people in general. Remember Abu Ghraib.

You are inferring that they are sceptical but they will regurgitate anything if it suits their business. Raking over the same coals for the nth time though no longer suits their interests though because it looks like what it is: smear.

If LFC is just the team and coach then you have to give them total respect. I thought we bossed the game today but we gave everything we had to do so and still couldn't beat them. If it wasn't for the activities of their owners, and their fans is smearing City, I'd have a lot of respect for...

City played a very good game imo and the players will know they are the better side. So will Liverpool. It was frustrating we didn't win given the balance of play but the result is OK. It's not out of Liverpool's hands and the games are being ticked off now.

I don't think so. They will accept gifts but this is driven by idealists whose No.1 enemy are individuals like the Emiratis. Liverpool, and Man Utd are the dogs under the table excitedly accepting the food as it drops to the floor below. I've always identified liberal journalists as the...

We don't we duck. The smear claim is the way to go. That is what is is. You don't fight a battle when you are at the bottom of the field, the cavalry has the heights, and the bogs in the middle are fast drying up. The political climate has shifted and underlying this is politics. Der Spiegel...

What worries me this time is not the content but the political climate. The warmongers and zealots are in the ascendancy now. Any rogue state, or any individual identified with a rogue state is under pressure. The so called liberals in the Western world are the hawks in foreign policy terms...

I accept that. it's blatant smear and it shows that the so called investigative journalism is dead. They are well and truly used. Der Spiegel targets the big spending Arab club. The Guardian, Times etc repeat it all. Meanwhile no one asks questions of the cartel, how convenient. I get all...

Liverpool have reportedly agreed a deal to take Carvalho from Fulham. I thought he was disappointing when we played them. At the time Liverpool had just failed to sign him in the January window and I wondered what the fuss was about. He scored a tap-in on a counter-attack but otherwise was...

But it wont stop. Some of the titles just use tribalism to make money but there are a number of journalists who really believe this free-world nonsense and will be driving this continually.

They just use football to drive 'sales' and 'hits'. Nationally they'll hammer City but regionally you'll get differences.

I note that the UAE abstained in the vote at the UN to expel Russia from a human rights council. Most of the Arab world abstained whilst Israel voted in favour. This shows that the the UAE is no longer backing whatever the West says and can no longer be regarded as a poodle state. The idea...

We should prioritise the next match. The FA Cup semi-final could be very influential in how the run-in unfolds.

All old news. And once again target Manchester City. City's claims of smear sound more credible as tome goes by What happened to investigatice journalism? This is all about selling a narrative. It's boring and it will bore other football fans too

How does Loftus-Cheek start for Chelsea?

I am not sure there is any point making predictions about the CL ties. Huge games played on a knife-edge. Chelsea were nowhere near the best side in Europe last season and yet won the CL - deservedly because on the match-day they showed up and played close to their max.

If one fan stood loyal throughout in the Holt end and he stood alone he would be loyal and the Villa fanbase would be fickle.
