The Football Thread 2021/22: England thrown to Hungary lions

[Lotus]

Just reading some of the responses to the various news tweets about Idrissa Gueye refusing to play for PSG when they had rainbow colours on their kit - thoroughly depressing stuff

I noticed that Kouyate and Sarr both backed Gueye and called him a "real man" for refusing to wear it

Typical with bigots like this, discrimination's only an issue when they feel like they're the victim.

Usually gets hidden behind religious beliefs too.

Get that you'd want to support a compatriot, but like, gotta think about what frame that gives you if you're essentially supporting homophobia as a result of it. I'm surprised Kouyate is even in the squad tonight as part of this.

Shame as well as he's been good this year but he's certainly disillusioned a lot of Palace with this. Needs a full apology and realisation to what it means overall. Especially the same week as the young lad coming out publicly.

Tonight's going well.

Everton flirting with disaster.

[Robbo-92]

If it stays like this, the final round of games is going to be tense!

[Denster]

Fantastic turnaround for the Toffees.

[Benzin]

strawberry float sake.

strawberry float me. Emotional right now. That's this season done for me now. See you in August.

[Robbo-92]

Thought that was a harsh straight red for Burnley, definitely a yellow but seemed harsh as a red. Good turnaround from Everton to stay up.

[RetroCora]

Studs up, followed through. It’s not the worst challenge I’ve ever seen but I can see why it was given. We call it an orange card sometimes in our group chat - could really go either way.

Looking like Leeds now - all Burnley need to do is match their result(ie lose on Sunday).

[Robbo-92]

With how many players Leeds have had sent off recently they’ve got to be the favourites to go down now.

I considered turning my stream off at halftime, glad I stuck with it, what a comeback. strawberry floating hell let's not do this again for a few seasons at least please.

Another pitch invasion resulting in another moment of madness from everyone involved.

The fan even posted the footage of him goading Vieira. I'll never understand this side of it, celebrate with the team sure, but why there's a need to goad (or in the case of Forest, attack) the opposition?

So we've got a hard-right Tory government and a bunch of idiots being twats at football matches. What could possibly go wrong.

I blame Stranger Things for bringing back the 1980s.

[Lotus]

'Fans' abusing players and managers at the Forest-Sheff Utd game, Everton-Palace, and Swindon-Port Vale too - twats, twats everywhere

I expect there'll be more this weekend too given the potential reasons for pitch invasions. People are so thick

[Memento Mori]

They need to crack down on morons with flares too.

That's more the 70s than 80s.

Very good
