    George Floyd

    And the context of that tweet is I was taken down not I’m a fat water buffalo. You can see the whole celebration in the highlights and the context is obvious.

    George Floyd

    So context has nothing to do with it. Is that what you’re saying? I’m saying it has everything to do with it. Understanding that very basic principle I would never address a black friend my “N” word regardless of how good a friend we might be, even if I’ve heard them refer to other black friends...

    George Floyd

    How do you know he wasn’t? I didn’t actually say he was by the way. When did he say it by the way and what was the context? I’ve googled him saying it about himself and am struggling to find anything past a few dubious right wing looking platforms claiming that he once said it about himself. Do...

    George Floyd

    Some black people refer to other black people by the “N” word. Are you suggesting that it has the same connotation when a member of the far right uses the “N” word to address a black person.

    Woodlands

    As someone else pointed out, was it ever alive. The suggestion I did like was a new training ground and academy. Could be funded by selling Ryton for housing and by the look of the woodlands site on google maps the perimeter of the site could also be sold of for housing as there looks to be more...

    George Floyd

    Apparently Akinfenwa has lost the right to be insulted at being compared to a water buffalo because a different black man chose to voice a talking water buffalo in a cartoon.

    George Floyd

    You’re dismissing your own argument with your first line. For some reason no, I’m not as educated as you in the far right. I’m comfortable with that.

    George Floyd

    You brought up Nazis into a “discussion” about cartoons not me. I didn’t actually pass comment either way on the comments about Akinfenwa. Idris Elba wasn’t being compared to a water buffalo, he was voicing a fictional character in a cartoon of a talking buffalo. Akinfenwa is a real person who...

    George Floyd

    So is the issue that a black English man of Sierra Leonean and Ghanaian parents is playing an animal that’s native home is Asia?

    Don’t worry, Raab has been doing the rounds to clear up any confusion And basically confirmed that it’s just a cynical stab at looking tough. They’ll be playing the “we made people quarantine” card for months if not years to come when being criticised for their response.

    Could we build a temp ground at UoW?

    I’ve been doing my best to keep out of these stadium threads but I will make one point and then clear off. History has told us that just because a third party is making a statement with the club doesn’t mean it has to give SISU unfettered credibility. We have been here before with Higgs, CRBE...

    Seems to me that this is just a cynical attempt to look tough after the horse has bolted. When 1000+ people were dying a day in Spain there was no control and no quarantine, now they’ve got a couple of hundred more cases, that’s cases not deaths, a day than us it’s time to say you have to self...

    The water buffalo in zootropolis represents only a water buffalo, nothing else.

    George Floyd

    So you’re suggesting that Zootropolis contains subliminal far right messages then and they’ve tricked a black man into playing along with it. #superdesperate

    George Floyd

    You’re really concerning yourself with who does the voice of a talking water buffalo, I’ll just say that again, a talking water buffalo in a cartoon, I’ll say that again, a cartoon? I’ve seen some desperate attempts at trolling before but the use of a talking animal in a cartoon has to take 1st...

    Wasps Statement

    I’m not sure how any of this whole current scenario is playing out comes as a surprise to anyone who’s been paying attention the last 10 years. I’m sick of it to be honest and can’t be arsed to share an opinion other than I’m not surprised by any of it. On that basis all it leaves is support the...

    Apparently the Jury has to go into special protection as the police believed that there was a plot to intimidate them.

    TBH from what I’m hearing from my own family yes brexit is a concern especially as my family mostly live in border towns and those that don’t work south of the border work in industries that rely on cross border trade but for the younger generation especially on the larger national scale they...

    Brexit is already doing that. Look what’s happening in Derry. Republicans are going to be fighting for more than one cause and some of those causes cross religion and the loyalists are a dying breed even amongst there own traditional community. The orange order is in a massive decline and that’s...

    The next assembly elections will be a big test. If Sinn Fein take control of the assembly either on it’s own or as part of a republican alliance a referendum has to take place under the terms of the GFA. I wouldn’t be surprised if this happens. Northern Ireland has been quietly been going...
