I agree, I don’t get why these people are getting so fucking angry. Do they also kick off when Help The Aged adverts come on as they’re discriminatory to young people, and send in angry emails saying “we should help all ages, you woke, lefty snowflake”? Do diabetics go mental when they see adverts for Cancer Research?

Yet as soon as the word “black” is involved, the entire cause is classified as domestic terrorism, a political plot to undermine & destroy the white race, the police, capitalism, and all hell breaks loose with people chucking in words they don’t really understand.

This whole ‘incident’ is horseshit, it’s an irrelevance, it doesn’t matter at all, but it’s being pounced on by people with some serious defensiveness issues to offload all their bile & insecurities.

I don't get why people like you want to use a football forum to bang on about politics?

People are getting annoyed because of the way Sky dealt with it.

Sexist!

Have to defend the 2 pundits at end. They are experts on the football league and exactly the type of pundit required rather than judt ex players who would rather make it to the premier league coverage

These 2 lads did a great podcast and spoke well about cov. I expect them to be on your telly alot more hopefully.

I have said the same about others, esp commentators and journalists who are articulate but don't know anything about football. What you want are those who know their stuff but can also speak well, Gary Lineker despite his ridiculous salary falls into that category. The two podcasters reminded me of conversations I used to hear at the student union bar-it was cringeworthy

Sorry, did I mention your shadow?

Mainly because, the likes of him, DOD etc only seem to be bothered about the righty lefty politics shite. Want to jump in with the sly little digs trying to make out people are racist throughout. Desperate to make every fucking thread about it with no interest in our matches.

I was actually waiting for it, same every time. He has obviously missed the big posts about Marxism, facism & stuff (which I don’t even understand), plus the rest of it, but I’m sure he’ll comment on that in due course

Because some people would rather bang on about politics.

Maybe both the lefties and righties can fuck off to the question time forum? They can take that silly bitch from sky with them too.

By the way, when discussing BAME problems, then you cant just blame white people...
Crime, culture, education and the fact they harm each other at alarming rates CANNOT be ignored and must be discussed sensibly... As that cant happen without everybody shouting racist, not alot will change. Create a balanced argument, discuss the problems, try and create change.

Most people call that equality don't they... Balanced structural change that helps everybody in life

Take some drastic action, shut down off topic for a month and stop threads like this turning up on the football forum. Then if people genuinely don't want to talk CCFC they'll drift off.

Well because essentially a popular movement is actually aimed at mobilising people for more sinister purposes

The anti fascist league was essentially a terrorist group led by a fanatical arm of the already fanatical SWP - I’m sure many people on those marches believed it was a strike against fascism when actually its intentions were to create essentially a fascist state which did not believe in democracy

The miners strike was led by a known Marxist - a Marxist in the sense of supporting the USSR and its attempts to overthrow an elected government - the leader was a known associate of Moscow and his band of followers were essentially spies infiltrating the gullible protestors who thought they actually cared for the cause of miner welfare.

Scargill? Never heard that before. I know he worked in the pits for 20 years before becoming president of the NUM, so not like he wasn't qualified for it. He was a member of the young communist party in his early years (as a lot of Labour politicians of the day were) and was certainly an "interesting" character but never heard of him being directly involved with the USSR. I know a couple of people who know him (he's fairly local to me) so will ask about it at some point.

It got on the match thread because of people (especially you) getting offended by Sky’s ‘coverage’.

Admin needs to keep the football threads about football. It’s as simple as that. A separate thread about the coverage is fine because it then becomes a choice.

No issue if people want to talk about stuff in the off topic and talk about football too.

It's when people have no interest in football and then want to make football threads all about the politics bullshit.

I was pointing out how they had no interest in speaking football and they wanted to whip up a storm first and foremost.

Was I wrong? It was half time when it was mentioned wasn't it?

Well, let's look at where RoS has been posting, in addition to this thread.

Match Thread - Coventry City vs QPR

Job done. Great performance in the second half.
www.skybluestalk.co.uk

new shirt for members

Hang on, the 'limited edition' one carries the names of all members, right? What's to stop the club releasing the same shirt but without the names? that would be a great idea. I think they are missing out on sales if they don’t release it to non members
www.skybluestalk.co.uk

Worst Ever Kit

We always have best/favourite ever kit threads. What do you think our worst ever has been? I think the likely winner is this one, so not a Cov kit I think this is just so spectacularly boring it falls into the shit category This this black away one was rubbish
www.skybluestalk.co.uk

Ryan Giles

Hasn’t had much of a mention but again was outstanding Saturday for me he’s better going forward than McCallum he’s lightening quick,I had worries about the his defensive side but again Saturday was superb for me was slightly behind Hamer in terms of level of performance,Giles & Dabo at wing...
www.skybluestalk.co.uk

Match Thread - Bristol City V Coventry City

Oh look, bitching already. Fucking children.
www.skybluestalk.co.uk

Robin's talking sense

The thing is i am sure robins wi have us near top of league 2 But im sure he would have had us near top of league 1 too So in my opinion we are another year behind schedule because of russel slade. Say what you want about tm and mv but robins WOULD have kept us up if he came in 1 pt of safety...
www.skybluestalk.co.uk

In between a spot of Covid (pretty neutral) and QoS (less neutral but, he didn't start it m'lud, in mitigation).

I mean...how much football is appropriate? 65:35 in favour of football? Does that suit the posting tyranny?

I'm not on Facebook, BLM the group are bordering on domestic terrorism, its a fine line... Nobody should support it but we are Told we have to... People say the difference between the movement and the organisation needs to be separated but it can't be as its been driven by the organisation... Why do people ignore this fact.

Also as with things like diversity training failing at workplaces, people don't like being told by people they are bad and they must think a certain way... It's destined to fail and create more hatred

Why? I'd support them refusing to play if players were being racially abused... But booing an organisation and movement that have put racial relations back 30 years is absolutely what should be done... They say they aren't backing the organisation BLM, but they use the same slogans etc that they use, Infact several media sites were claiming they were a terrorist organisation 3 or 4 years ago .. Fuck them... Remember when Jo Cox was killed by a right wing lunatic and everybody blamed the wankers Britain's first etc... Then the same should be happening with the destruction and police deaths in the name of BLM awful group, awful people, awful leaders.

Anti Jewish
Anti White
Anti capitalist
Anti democracy

Once again... FUCK THEM

this belongs in off topic

Being anti an anti-racism campaign and comparing them to Jo Cox's killers is not a good look...
