No, we're not. We're putting numbers and reasons into context.

Thanking you for making my point. Both sides are an embarrassment to this country
and 'numbers and reasons' are the excuses l was talking about.
It's like a school playground with the 'but Miss he started it' nonsense.

Throw in 100 anti fascist Wrexham fans apparently twatting edl in Manchester and the day is complete.
I hope these "events"aren't every Saturday.

Thought the Welsh border was closed?

Just had a look seems BLM were in waterloo and the protect the statues lot were heading hime and it went off.



One vid has police runningthrough the station as flares and flash bangs are going off






Another has copers chasing around station and groups runnig though.

Another has ine of the football lads get caught alone out side and gets a into a scrap by BLM group, obviously outnumbered.


Already posted above and tbh not pleasant so no need to post again

Then there is a picture of a BLM protester taking him to safety over his shoulder.



Basically it kicked off as people were going home intesected with the BLM protest.

I wonder if the guy carried to safety by a black man will change his views

Just noticed he still has his fist clenched

This is what I mean by cunts on both sides.

Stop hating and stop hurting other human beings for fuck sake.

Little chance of that l am afraid.

I don’t think it’s “playground” stuff to point out the very clear and obvious differences between last weekend and this weekend, tbh.

In tomorrow’s Daily Mail: ‘Black thief steals white man right in front of police’

If you don't see it open your eyes. The far right are very comfortable voting for Boris hence the landslide victory.

???

Thought that had been proven that the landslide happened because a lot of left of centre and traditionally Labour supporting voters voted Tory - a lot for the first time

Are you saying that they are all 'far right' supporters ?

Who exactly were the Wrexham lot battering and why?

I was in town today down castlefield and walked up past the centotaph about 2pm wasn't very busy, walked back up towards dilly down whitworth st

I never saw 100 lads ballooning about town and it seemed very quiet, but it is a 10 min walk away so easily missed.

wrexham coming up is nuts

And the last line about the DFLA lads being too pised and coked up to defend themselves :-/

They're from the north, Scousers really

The EDL I think. Why? Because football hooligans are restless with no footy to fight about. And the fact that the EDL are absolute bellends.

There were still hundreds (thousands?) of thugs out last weekend. The difference is the vast majority were there for a genuine cause last week whereas a much larger percentage that turned out today are thugs

Cheers. Sounds like a load of hooligan covidiots battered a load of racist covidiots then.

Rangers u21s played Wrexham at Ibrox in some cup game before Xmas. They brought a huge following who tied in with the green brigade and caused bother with the union bears in the rangers end who of course were happy to get involved.

 

[Petethemancinleeds]

Wrexham are trending on Twitter , slightly more than Maya Jama which is bizarre in itself. They appear to have an affinity with Celtic and anti fascism. On a historical note their only Wetherspoons will need a re name as it's named after an ex slaver. Can't forgive them for unleashing Mickey Thomas into league football, it's a mixed up world for sure.

The football fans protecting the manchester cenotaph, I have no idea if it was rags protecting it or a mix of us and them, either way wreham fancied it by the look of it.

Yes, of course. There is no excusing the thugs on either side. The two situations were completely different though, which hopefully most sensible people see.

Its his default pose Karen. He is angry shaven headed "football Dave" who thinks so called Antifah are the root of all his problems - he's not going to change. Imagine how shit your life is waking up and from the first second of wakefulness to going to sleep being that angry.....
