Newcastle and Man Utd are probably going out in the group stage then.

“The phrase "white knight" as an insult is often used to criticize someone who is perceived as overly defensive or supportive of a particular person or cause, typically in a way that comes across as insincere or self-serving. It implies that the person is intervening or defending someone not out of genuine concern, but rather to appear virtuous or gain favor, often with a connotation of moral superiority.”

I take it you were trying to insult my contribution. In which case I’ll revert to my less considered response of - duck off and stop being a prick.

Hang on, the only person that’s actually had an insult directed at them (white knight and erm, tampon) on this topic is me, the bad guy. Well, until now.

Maybe we can start a White Knight's Club then Kenneth?

Well you can rest assured that I am sincere when I call out ****ing sex pests.

Glad we're not in it

[BobTheCharmer]

City have the easiest group ever.

You may as well skip these games and get straight to the semi finals. Even worse when there's more teams in it next season.

[danperkins]

Yeah they'll smash that group with their reserve lads and have zero compromise in the prem fixtures. Annoying.

[Cerbie]

Group of death for Newcastle though!

Yup it's beautiful

[frank the tank]

And there is plenty of stuff I don’t agree with Dan and Harv on - **** they very rarely agree with each other!

Kenneth that is the second time this week you have played the Incel card - that’s a yellow for me as it’s unnecessary and untrue. Just no need.

My girls are 18 and 21, I have asked them and the wife what they think about the whole **** show. From that small sample size, they all agree it was wrong and inappropriate. The handling of the fall out is a case study for a PR disaster course & has taken the shine off what should be a national celebration. Would they consider it sexual assault - no…. And at least one of them has experienced that in the past.

With Luis Rubiales???

It’s not something I have much of a sense of humour about surprisingly enough.

Newcastle yes but even United should have enough to get past the other two.

Yeah I imagine they will beheading out of the CL early doors.
