RE: SMFC vs Sydney Utd in the @AusChampionship. Our initial pre-match tifo concept to honour Javi Lopez was to use this fantastic shot by Luke Radzimiski. Soooo good!!! Follow Luke here: instagram.com/lmr.____?dlrf=…

Well done to Police Commissioner Mike Bush for reading the evidence and acting. Must be awkward in the office though, as assistant police commissioner and Chief of Police Media, Brett Curran was Dan Andrews Chief of Staff the day Dan Andrews Vic Govt SUV ran over a 15yo boy, while the lad was riding his sister’s bike. That fact that Andrews left the scene and waited almost 7 minutes to call 000, and hasn’t given his phone records over from the day, is a big part of this. Who did Dan Andrews call first? Why did the police closest to the accident, and almost at the scene, get called away? Why did the different police who did eventually turn up, NOT BREATHALYSE Dan Andrews and his wife? The boy was airlifted to hospital close to death. Why was Andrews allowed to drive his car, with a smashed front windscreen, away from the scene without any investigation. Why did Andrews change his story from his belated 000 call ‘we hit him’, to a media interview later ‘he T-boned us’? That means being hit in the side of the car. How could that lead to a front windscreen smashing? Why did the responding police who hadn’t followed protocol, turn up to the boys house. when he eventually got out of hospital, and was recuperating at home, not to ask for his version of events, but to WARN HIM TO BE QUIET, about the whole thing, or he will get charged? They said this to a 15yo boy who had nearly died when a big SUV, most likely, cut the corner of a country road and smashed into him.
Breaking news: Victoria Chief Commissioner refers the Bike Boy crimes to IBAC. The Herald Sun is reporting that Chief Commission Mike Bush has referred the evidence uncovered by the Bike Boy investigation to IBAC, Victoria’s anti corruption body. The 500 page evidence brief was presented to current Chief Commissioner Mike Bush by former Chief Commissioner Kel Glare in July this year. Mr Glare has publicly stated that the evidence indicates that Daniel and Catherine Andrews have committed the crimes of perjury and perverting the course of justice. More to come….

Northern Cyprus is an illegal Turkish settler-colony on Greek land, so why doesn't the "decolonize everything" crowd have a problem with it?

The videos emerging from Africa of Islamists slaughtering Christians are truly satanic. I have seen a video of Jihadists cutting the limbs off young Christian men and women before beheading them. I genuinely don't understand why nobody is talking about this.

Crowd numbers aren’t the whole story. But I think it does make evident that South Melbourne are A-league ready, but no one else is really. Give South Melbourne a license and let the Aus Championship build over the next 5-10 years. We need to hurry up and slow down.

@smfc winning the @AustraliaCup would be one of the biggest moments in world football history. It's a win for our history, our people and our pappoudes who came here for a better life. A win for all of us who grew up never being good enough. The real meaning of #MagicOfTheCup

Bordeaux are back at the Matmut Atlantique Stadium today—and their fans just showed what pure loyalty looks like. 🔵⚪️🇫🇷 After financial collapse forced the club away from their home arena due to high stadium costs, the Marine et Blanc finally returned home today with a flat €8 ticket. Supporters responded instantly packing the stands with over 11,000 fans. 🏟️🎟️ To pull an 11,000+ crowd in the 6th division (Régional 1) shatters the previous 6th-tier record of 3,850. While most amateur games draw a few hundred spectators, Bordeaux fans are creating top-flight atmosphere in regional football. 😍 Divisions change, but true terrace culture stays forever! 👏❤️

I'd say their initial investment for the license has more than been covered. They bought in cheap - had command of the market - so why do they need protecting - apart from what we all know - if they go down - they go for good. This fragility says it all.
