Apparently Jeremy Corbin was one of the first to sign the petition according to someone one the radio last night.

The police and committee made their decision based on the experience of the Ajax match where it seems both sets of fans and some of Amsterdam's citizens were provocative. It seems sad to me and everything should have been done to allow fans but the committee were the ones who saw the full report of Amsterdam so I'll refrain from second guessing them.

I wasn't doubting you Shane. I was just questioning how a factual post gets to be deleted. Whether it stops being a fact if someone deletes the tweet and so sensible to back away from the statement. A genuine enquiry and something I should probably understand if I might have to decide about a post.

If the safety of MTA fans cannot be guaranteed in Brum, surely MTA should refuse to play there as how can the safety of their team and officials be guaranteed? Brum is either safe for Jews and Israelis or it isn't.

If they had any moral backbone, Villa should ignore this and sell tix to away fans and dare the police to ban the match. The committee is only advisory and the chairman should resign in disgrace immediately.

DO - correct. The decision stinks and hopefully the 'independent' MP will be hung out to dry by the House of Commons Standards Committee.

So if Maccabi Tel Aviv fans are banned from the Villa match, surely Spurs fans will be banned on the same premise? And similarly no further pro-Hamas/Gaza/Palestine rallies should be permitted?

Probably not the best decision by WM police but they had consider the safety of Maccabi supporters. On the whole, probably the right decision. What was the alternative? Someone being killed?

Don't think that's what OI means, Shane.

Absolutely appalled by the Aston Villa decision.

Thanks for the link Mags, that was really interesting. I'd love to know which club made an approach for JJ.

If you doubt the tweet content then I can share the original with you OI.

I get all that Shane, but if you post "x tweeted y" and they did but later deleted it, can they then threaten folk about it?

Keeps us above Huddersfield !

Not sure his replacement did that well there CM 😁

Goodman didn't last long at Huddersfield. Benchwarming for last 5 games. Grass not always greener

More worrying OI is that JL was in charge of our constitutional rewrite for a while and then Dave Boyle was paid to take it over.

Dumb oldie question. If you delete a tweet can you really get away with saying it never existed in the first place?

This is the wrong decision': Starmer criticises move to BAN fans of Israeli club from Aston Villa clash amid 'safety and security fears'

Wow Starmer has actually come out and agreed with MAD.

Timmy - I posted that before and it got removed and James deleted his tweet.

If james posted that he shouldn’t be on the board

I'm sure he weeps at every latest opinion poll:-)
