The absolute state of this from Mac Allister.
If an Arsenal player did this you would never hear the end of it.
Ref was awful today for both teams. Liverpool absolutely should have had a penalty. Nyoni easily could have been off inside 10mins, but at least he didn’t allow himself to be conned here.

Trying to understand why a prominent Tory party member organising contract killings isn’t being given wall to wall coverage. The BBC hasn’t even mentioned it on their site.
🚨🇬🇧 Turning Point UK's CEO was filmed offering an undercover reporter a menu of beatings, stabbings and killings through a Glasgow contact who says he arms the UVF
Al Jazeera’s undercover operation started in 2021 when a reporter joined the British offshoot of the American student group.
Its CEO Jack Ross, a Conservative candidate in 2023, introduced the reporter to Allan Nesbitt, a convicted criminal and self-described UVF member, agreed on camera to pay him to stage a fake pro-Zimbabwe rally, and priced out what Nesbitt’s friends could do to a person, from cutting faces to MURDER.
The UVF is the Ulster Volunteer Force, a Protestant loyalist paramilitary from Northern Ireland’s Troubles that killed over 500 people between 1966 and 1999, including 33 in one day in the Dublin and Monaghan bombings, and is still banned as a terror group.
Since the peace deal it has run mostly as a drug gang that kept the name and the guns.
Nesbitt reportedly met the reporter in a London hotel, offered to have a fictional business rival “finished,” claimed he’d personally stabbed a man to death, showed a shotgun and pistol on a video call and said the fee would buy weapons smuggled from Scotland into Northern Ireland.
Ross says it was a joke. The joke came with a price list, a weapons demo and a smuggling route, and the police now have a name and a video... and wasn't particularly funny.
Somebody in Turning Point UK’s donor base should be asking when the fundraising dinners turned into this.

🚨 THIS SHOULD ALARM EVERY PARENT IN ENGLAND.
Tomorrow, the Government is expected to receive 27 recommendations on tackling antisemitism in schools and colleges.
Among the reported proposals:
• Schools to reconsider political symbols, including Palestinian watermelon badges.
• New guidance on teaching the Israel–Palestine conflict, emphasising political impartiality.
• Greater scrutiny of how teachers discuss geopolitical issues.
• Encouraging schools to adopt the IHRA definition of antisemitism, including its controversial examples relating to Israel.
Let me be absolutely clear...
Antisemitism must be challenged wherever it exists. Jewish children deserve to feel safe in every school.
But this is not about antisemitism.
IT IS ABOUT BRAINWASHING OUR CHILDREN TO COVER UP OUR GOVERNMENT'S COMPLICITY IN WAR CRIMES.
What the hell are we doing when expressing solidarity with Palestinians becomes something schools are encouraged to challenge?
When teachers are expected to demonstrate political impartiality, who decides what constitutes impartiality?
And since when should the documented genocide and displacement of Palestinians be treated as simply another political opinion?
Human rights ARE NOT a partisan position.
International law IS NOT a matter of political preference.
The slaughtering of civilians IS NOT something we should teach children to be indifferent about.
Education is being hijacked for political conditioning rather than encouraging children to think critically.
If we reach a point where children are discouraged from showing solidarity with victims of oppression, where teachers fear telling the truth about atrocities, and where political impartiality becomes a euphemism for silence, then we have crossed a truly terrifying, line.
Education should teach children to recognise injustice, question authority and stand up for humanity, not to condition them to look the other way when those in power are responsible.
And if our Government is more concerned about children wearing Palestinian badges than the suffering those badges represent, then we need to ask ourselves a very serious question:
Are we educating the next generation to prevent the atrocities of history from happening again, or teaching them how to accept them when they do?

Roy Keane has his say on the independent Premier League Commission's findings against Manchester City.

🔥 WATCH THIS: Paul Merson RAGING at Manchester City over their industrial-scale cheating, and the moments they’ve denied other teams, players and fans.
Merse is saying what a lot of fans have been feeling since the guilty verdicts. The cheating didn’t just help City. It won them the Premier League. He says there’s “absolutely no chance” they would have done it without it.
Without the ability to ignore PSR the way everyone else had to, they would have been miles off the top teams. They simply wouldn’t have been able to compete with the legitimate revenue streams the others were generating.
The players didn’t win those leagues, “them upstairs” did, by buying all the best players and building a squad no one else was allowed to match.
When Clinton Morrison tried to defend them (“they still have to go out and play, Merse”), Merson nearly exploded:
“OH COME ON! They had all the best players! They had two best players in every position and they dominated!”
Then he went further. Medals and trophies are almost irrelevant next to what actually matters. Life is about moments, and City’s ownership have taken those moments away from other people.
He pointed to Manchester United at Sunderland in 2012 — the day Aguero scored in the last seconds against QPR to clinch City’s first title, while United were left standing on the pitch at the Stadium of Light. That was at the height of the cheating.
“Life is all about moments and you’ve taken it away from other people. Them upstairs at Man City have nicked other people’s moments in life.”
Well put, @PaulMerse 👏
