Pollock is the Bryson DeChambeau of rugby.

The men who raised the flags Nigel Farage says this summerโ€™s movement was led by โ€˜ordinary peopleโ€™ expressing their patriotism. Thatโ€™s not what we found

It's not a grassroots working class movement.

"Wherever we looked for prominent flaggers and leaders of this movement, we found people smugglers and sex doll salesmen, people with dubious criminal pasts and people willing to put in a good word for Adolf Hitler."

I'm afraid to say it but every senior exec in every company receives travel, accommodation, meals, etc. That said, you're correct in that the perks at Celtic are exceptional.

Nicholson and McKay's packages are extraordinarily high for a company turning over just ยฃ124m. Ridiculous money for a couple of nodding dogs.

Above all else, first out the door should be both Desmond, an egotistical bully with influence way beyond what is normal for a plc and Brian Wilson, a staunch Unionist, anti-Scottish propagandist and erstwhile despicable prick.

Putting aside the fact that Keane is a shite manager, part of me thinks it's beyond madness that Keane is even being considered.
The other suspects it might be Keane's agent trying it on.
Either way, get him as far away from Celtic as possible.

The BBC make Scotland out to be a run down crime ridden back water. What they do not say is we have less crime, better A&E, more doctors and nurses per head of population, more students in university, less child poverty, less alcohol related admittance to hospital, building more affordable homes, record inward investment, spend more on social care, better paid teachers nurses, police, planting more trees, than in England and produce more green energy than we can use.

The BBC, a century of brainwashing and propaganda, on behalf of the westminster establishment.

Many in the UK still think the Royal Family's raison d'etre is generating tourist dollars for the economy.
Bullshit! The monarchy is a societal control tool - to manipulate public opinion, deflect govt policy, and enable and reinforce the notion of first and second-class citizenship.

The chief behavioural psych problem with Scottish Unionists and English Nats is a conditioned belief that the "ruling class" is best equipped to govern - be it the aristocracy, Eton/Harrow cartel or Oxbridge PP&E collective.
Simply put, it's cap-doffing as a way of life and on an industrial scale.

The SNP introduced free tuition and we will always ensure Scottish students do not pay tuition fees.

Meanwhile in England, students pay over ยฃ9,500 a year and Labour will put fees up every year.

Education must always be based on the ability to learn, not the ability to pay.

The Louvre Jewellery Heist.

With investigative powers far superior to those of La Police Nationale, I've been able to narrow down the list of potential culprits to two ingenious heroes.
And dont even think to counter my claim. I'm 100% certain. I have the proof. ๐Ÿ•ตโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Despite being a relatively bookish soul with a fairly good grasp of languages, I am now finding it impossible to talk about Keir Starmer without using the C word.
Because that is what he is. A despicable c***! ๐Ÿซก

Maccabi Tel Aviv will not accept Aston Villa Europa League tickets Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv say they will not accept any ticket allocation from Aston Villa should the decision to ban their supporters from next month's Europa League match be overturned.

This is up there with the worst sports article ever written and published by the BBC. And considering how low the bar is, that's saying something.
Gaslighting of the very worst kind, with lies, obfuscation and a deeply distorted narrative. Shameful stuff. And no byline.

Maccabi Tel Aviv hooligans: lies, smears - and the truth Tel Aviv's police ban the city's derby after Maccabi hooligans rioted. You cannot make this sh*t up.

Those backing the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans visiting Birmingham were smeared as antisemites.

Then Tel Aviv police banned the city's derby after riots.

This whole saga is defined by lies and smears.

Here's the truth ๐Ÿ‘‡
