Football fan banned from matches until 2026 after Premier League conduct four-month 'stasi' probe into her social media posts criticising transgender ideology - despite police saying she did not commit a crime

Newcastle United and the Premier League have gone Nuts.

As this is a new development on the football front I decided it deserved a special mention in this thread.

Murderers, Rapists and Paedophiles are Welcome but, mention anything to do with Transgender Ideology and you get banned for a couple of seasons, this insidious condemnation of anyone who disagrees with this Gender Ideology has gone too far and its time for the Government to do something about it.
And all this bollocks from Saudi Arabian owners who actively class women as third class citizens and who killed thousands of workers building their World Cup Stadiums No, no, no, that was Qatar you bloody muppet, oh the bleeding Irony. These bastards need booting out of the country but, money talks and common sense gets put in a Rubbish Bin so that isn't going to happen any time soon.

It doesn't stop Newcastle United's Reputation from being trashed though does it?.

Edit.
I thought the red part was wrong at the time I wrote it, I must have had a brain lapse, it happens.
Any way its still true, Saudi Arabia is a Muslim country and if you go visiting that place and start spouting Transgender nonsense you'll be arrested and thrown in a cell within minutes, so, which of you Transgender idiots are going to be first then.
What!, nobody.

QPR legend Stan Bowles has died aged 75 with the club paying tribute by calling him "one of QPR's greatest players".

Bowles started his career as an apprentice at Manchester City, later joining Fourth Division Crewe and then Carlisle.

After signing for QPR in 1972, Bowles went on to make 315 league appearances, scoring 97 goals over seven seasons, and was part of the team which finished runners-up to Liverpool in the old First Division under Dave Sexton in 1975-76.

3. Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a
great king from history:
Spades - King David,
Hearts - Charlemagne
Clubs -Alexander the Great,
Diamonds - Julius Caesar
4. In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured
on bed frames by ropes. When you pulled on the
ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer
to sleep on. Hence the phrase........ 'goodnight,
sleep tight.'
5. It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000
years ago that for a month after the wedding, the
bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all
the mead he could drink.
Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar was
lunar based, this period was called the honey month,
which we know today as the honeymoon
