FunkMonk, you 100% should switch from supporting Arsenal to either Millwall or Crystal Palace

That's kind of you. We're a big club for League 1 with a 27,000 capacity stadium. We're really a championship level club in terms of size. We've had a dreadful season but have new (American) owners and a decent new manager so hoping for a good season next year.

What the hell, I'll engage against my better judgment.

I stopped reading after this.

If you want to have a civil discussion.  Don't start it by being uncivil.

Thanks for confirming my instincts.

Charlton Athletic. I wouldn't bother if I were you

Thanks.

I see you are rivals with Millwall and Palace but of course neither are in League One now, so I'll just have to support whichever League One club is playing you each match week.

Yes it's petty and stupid but I feel that is what a football fan should do. Absolute hatred for no good reason.

And it's official I am going to Knorr-Bremse.  They haven't picked out an official name for North American Operations.  I'm hoping for "From Soup to Brakes"; but it probably won't be.

The issue isn't whether these people are cunts. They obviously are.
Its those pointing to them and going "See! See! Anyone who dares to speak against Israel is like this! Anti zionism is anti semitism!"

It's not either or.

And from my viewing of he media there are significant portions of the population that do not think the protestors yelling genocide slogans are cunts.  So it's not obvious to them.

Thinking about it a bit more, it might make sense. Two big complaints about EU4 is trade and not much to do in peacetime. This might solve both.
