I'm with you there - plenty of other sites to spout political drivel - only football drivel here please!!I used to enjoy this site when it focussed on Lincoln City.
Bigoted political comments have no place here

I am a red bloodied Tory ? News to me....
Would never want to hang and flog, (I make an exception for paedophiles maybe) but a strong deterrent.
A decent society would be nice TBH...
And that will be my final say...(You will probably be pleased to hear).
9facts slightly wrong but the principle still the same. Pearce and waddle missed in 1990 sorryHow times have changed.
25 years ago 3 white English players missed penalties in a shoot out.
I am sure they got some stick from crowds they played in front off for a while.
However, they made a pizza advert and everybody laughed at them and thought what great chaps they were whilst they pocketed the fee from the ad.
And remember these were all experienced players.
2 days ago three young black players did the same.
They have received death threats to themselves and their families. Received every conceivable form of racial abuse on the social media. We all know what Rashford has done for free regarding school meals etc.. but that is irrelevant to the mindless morons who are supposedly England supporters.
I like many others have buried my head in the sand using the excuse that it is only a tiny minority and carried on regardless.
I am sorry I think it is more than a tiny minority and it is the duty of us all to call these people out and report them to the authorities.
And I am sure we all know at least one person guilty of this.
The only people who appear intolerant of peoples views and insulting peoples opinions from what I’ve read on here is the “left” side.
Fucking politics, Notty seems to be able to turn any thread into a politics debate and insults.
The key phrase there is 'social media', although in the hands of neanderthals it is anything but 'social'.How times have changed.

It does seem to have gone 'off topic' - plenty of threads on there to continue the discussion!
It most definitely has not gone off topic. The post-match issues have been dominated by three things:
*Thugs smashing up London and attacking Italians
*Racists being racist to our players
*Tory MPs like Elphicke taking snide pot shots
It's sad but the football that was played has already passed into history. That lot above are still with us, and getting bolder.
And don't you dare tell me, @EastvilleIMP, that I'm the "intolerant" one. I know I'm on the right side of history and anyone who suggests otherwise is defending racism, hooliganism and far-right dog-whistle politics.
