Player and fan Responses to the final and the aftermath

[Nefertiti2]

Probably needs its own thread

Marcus Rashford ( and/ or his social media team ) have responded to his miss and the subsequent abuse and defacing of the mural

I’m Marcus Rashford, 23 year old, black man from Withington and Wythenshawe, South Manchester. If I have nothing else I have that.”

Those letters to Rashford... I seem to have something in my eye

[Nefertiti2]

Maybe this is a turning point in the Tory culture war. People saw where it led, and who they were appealing to. The drunken racist thugs on the other threads Football lads fellow travellers, the fash and fascist adjacent who have been allied with Johnson since he assumed leadership of the Tory party and threw out all dissenters.

Marcus Rashford is my king.

I think this also belongs here too. Someone sold her out very quickly.

Marcus Rashford is my king.

His campaign to give FSM over the holidays helped so many and made him such a target for the media. By going for him again they are making a huge mistake.

I hope the pile on in support for him brings a change in this country.

No king, surely. I'm sure a democrat like Marcus doesn't believe in primogeniture.

What does Sandford even mean?

[Nurse Duckett]

The link doesn't work for me. Also your avatar is broken.

Sorry, AE, my first time trying to embed a tweet. Looks OK at my end. Taxi for ND to the Pop Culture Dinosaur thread. No idea what's going on with the avatar.

[Discordant Resonance]

Basically, know your place, pleb - the Sandford post, obviously.

When I quoted you it worked, very strange. Hence deleting my post.

"Know your place", as much as he would waffle if pinned down about it.

ETA: Ha, DR got there first.

Sandford has deleted, saying people misunderstood, and he was warning Patel, not Mings.

[Nefertiti2]

Sandford is the grandson of Brigadier Daniel Sandford and the great nephew of Lieutenant Richard Douglas Sandford VC. He is also related to Daniel Fox Sandford (1831–1906), Bishop of Tasmania, Daniel Keyte Sandford (1798–1838), Scottish politician and Greek scholar and Daniel Sandford, (1766–1830), Bishop of Edinburgh.

He is married to Caro Kriel, the former head of international news for Sky News. He has two children.

Of course. The famous misunderstanding defence.

Those letters from kids to Marcus Rushford are beautiful. I read them out to Mrs Thistle and my voice cracked.
