  7. we just have never come all that close to being on Lyon and Barca's levels Lyon and Barca are now like the mens Real Madrid and Barca sides of womens football and before Barca became a womens team monster it was Eintracht Frankfurt and to a leeser degree (as they are only on 2 wins, 4 losses in CL Finals) VfL Wolfsburg
  8. well, that went poorly we were even or down only 1 nil for the first 70 minutes, then pegged them back after their 2nd goal, so down 2 1, then BOOM
  9. Report: Chelsea determined to land €70m star, but he would prefer to join Arsenal https://www.caughtoffside.com/2025/04/19/Chelsea-want-arsenal-target-viktor-gyokeres/ Chelsea are interested in signing the Sweden international Viktor Gyökeres from Sporting CP at the end of the season. The 26-year-old has established himself as one of the best strikers in the world and he could prove to be an excellent acquisition for the Blues if they can get the deal done. According to A Bola (h/t SportWitness), they are determined to get the deal done, and the player will cost around €70 million. However, the report claims that the player prefers to join Arsenal, Liverpool or Manchester City. With Liverpool and Manchester City uninterested in signing the player, Arsenal appear to be the favourites. It will be interesting to see if Chelsea can beat them to his signature. They have the resources to pay €70 million for the striker, and he could transform them in the attack. The player has been outstanding for Sporting CP this season, and Chelsea needs someone like him if they want to win major trophies. The 26-year-old has 47 goals and 11 assists this season. He could prove to be a major upgrade on Nicolas Jackson, and he could transform Chelsea in the attack. On the other hand, Arsenal are keen on the player as well. They need an upgrade on Gabriel Jesus, who has not been able to score goals consistently. The fact that the player prefers to join them will be a huge boost for them, and it will be interesting to see if they can beat Chelsea to his signature. Both clubs will be hoping to win major trophies next season, and Gyökeres could play a key role for them. Regular football in the Premier League could help me improve further and establish himself as a world-class player.
  10. down 1 nil to Barca atm https://www.vipleague.pm/uefa-cl-women/barcelona-w-vs-Chelsea-w-1-live-streaming https://www.vipleague.pm/uefa-cl-women/barcelona-w-vs-Chelsea-w-2-live-streaming https://soccer-100.com/event/uefa-wchampions/Chelsea--vs-barcelona-live-soccer-stats/735081
  11. The ADL reversed its support for Trump’s student deportations. You should too. https://forward.com/opinion/710017/adl-trump-student-deportations-jonathan-greenblatt/ Jonathan Greenblatt, the leader of the Anti-Defamation League, has walked back his organization’s previous support for President Donald Trump’s Trump campaign to detain and deport pro-Palestinian activists — thank God. “No one should minimize the hateful, violent acts committed against Jewish students,” he wrote in an April 3 essay in eJewishPhilanthropy. “But if we sacrifice our constitutional freedoms in the pursuit of security, we undermine the very foundation of the diverse, pluralistic society we seek to defend.” Now that the largest and most influential Jewish civil rights organization has reconsidered its unjustifiable initial support for the detentions, it’s time for others who may also have been seduced into believing such draconian measures are “good for the Jews” to speak out against them. Because they are definitely not good for the Jews. Look, I get why Greenblatt and the ADL were initially enthusiastic. After a year of campus protests that sometimes led to physical harassment of Jewish students, vandalized university property and prevented Jewish and other students from attending class, I can imagine finding it satisfying to see actual perpetrators held accountable. And so the ADL did.“We appreciate the Trump Administration’s broad, bold set of efforts to counter campus antisemitism,” ADL posted to its X account on Mar. 9, after ICE agents took Columbia University activist Mahmoud Khalil into custody, “and this action further illustrates that resolve by holding alleged perpetrators responsible for their actions.” That post went on to throw in one sentence calling for due process. But as Greenblatt now acknowledges, the organization should have known better. “We were glad to see the administration taking action,” he said in an interview this week with Jewish Insider. “But the pattern of behavior since then has raised concerns that would be easy to address by being transparent about the charges.” Khalil has not been charged with any crimes; nor have any of the students or other university staff so far arrested, detained and deported as part of the Trump administration’s push. The administration’s approach, in this as in deportations of alleged gang members, has been to imprison first and ask questions later, going after anyone whose opinions somebody somewhere found objectionable — all under the guise of protecting the Jews. So far at least 10 people have been detained, according to a Forward tracker. I, like many liberal-leaning Jews, found it difficult to understand how the ADL and other Jewish organizations and leaders could have failed to immediately see the slippery Constitutional slope Khalil’s arrest put us on — and where it would inevitably lead. Even worse is the fact that reporters have found that two Jewish groups, Canary Mission and Betar, have targeted pro-Palestinian activists for arrest and fed their names to authorities. These are shadowy groups — the ADL labeled Betar “extremist” — that represent a rightwing fringe of American Jewry. It takes only the barest acquaintance with Jewish history to understand that when free speech and civil liberties erode for any group, Jews inevitably become a target. In this case, we are doubly endangered — by government actions attacking free speech, and also by groups blaming the Jews as a whole for instigating these attacks. Good on the ADL for eventually recognizing that, and being able to admit they made a mistake. Greenblatt said his awakening came after the detention of Tufts graduate student Rumeysa Ozturk, whom masked ICE agents swooped down on and disappeared as she left her home in Somerville, Mass. last week. Her crime? The 30-year-old Turkish national co-authored an op-ed in Tufts’ student newspaper calling for the university to divest from Israel. “You cannot arrest people or eject people from the country because they are bigoted or racist,” he told Jewish Insider. “That’s not a crime. That has never been an offense.” A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson told the Associated Press that Ozturk’s visa was terminated last week, after the agency found that she engaged in activities in support of Hamas. Of course the agency provided no evidence. Her friends said she did not organize protests, and Tufts confirmed that her op-ed did not violate school policies. “We can hold perpetrators of unlawful antisemitism accountable while maintaining a commitment to the Constitution,” wrote Greenblatt in eJewishPhilanthropy. “We can protect the civil liberties of Jewish students even as we preserve the civil liberties of those who protest, harass or attack them because they are innocent until proven guilty.” Of course, starting with Khalil’s arrest there was good reason to oppose the administration’s shotgun approach to antisemitism. Threatening to cut off all federal funding to a university — including critical medical research, and grants to Jewish students and professors — doesn’t help Jews. Eviscerating the offices at the Department of Education, including those that investigate campus antisemitism, doesn’t help Jews. What these measures help are people who want to undermine liberal education, elite institutions, and government bureaucracies. Which, you know, might just be the point. Our job is not to be suckered into supporting it.
  12. UK Crisis - Joe Blogs In this video I talk about the refuse collection strike in Birmingham, the UK's second largest city, which started on 11th March 2025. The strike has resulted in over 22,000 tons of garbage building up across the city. Residents have reported sightings of 'rats the size of cats' and it is estimated that the clean up costs are now over £200 million. Birmingham City Council that is in charge of refuse collection declared itself Bankrupt in September 2023 and this latest situation is only going to make the financial situation worse.
