To be a part of this club, you’re more than just a player, you’re more than just a fan, another cash cow in the attendance stats, another target for this season’s £50 redesigned replica shirt.

football, as a working class sport in its origin, has always been working class. And that's why it has always been 'left' because 'left' means 'in the interests of working class people' where as 'right' means 'in the interests of those who exploit the working class'

[@Voices__Media]

Couldn’t agree more!

Brilliant. My brother designed and made the 'Collective Joy' banner. He's been on at me for years to get down to the OSD. I live near Liverpool and one day I will!

[@Voices__Media]

That is a great story!

[@PerfectedInDeath]

“Fixing” indeed 😂😂 The left has ruined modern cinema, music, poetry, art and education - why not let them have football too! 😂

Left bad. Ug ug. Left BAD. Sound argument.

[@truthoverlies1820]

​@@Ignat-rupertyour understanding of left and right is inaccurate in 2024. The Overton window has shifted dramatically left I the last decade. In simple terms most ordinary ppl would accept a modest financial income if it meant that we'd hold on to a preserve our cultural more's etc. What we have now is the dirge of fiscal leftism combined with unfettered cultural progressivism..oft coined cultural Marxism..were fast becoming a nation where the hard working entrepreneur won't earn that much more than Tracy on supermarket tills, whilst brothers Ben and Andy can sleep with eachother because 'it's not doing anyone any harm'....Weimar II if u will...

@@truthoverlies1820 you have been lead into a conspiracy theory and lack any politics. Cultural marxism is an invention of the right and fascists. It's not real
