Feels pretty surreal to be talking football after what's happened in Christchurch. We have always thought we were safe from racial hatred, because we are so far away from the rest of the planet. Not any more. We are now a paid up member of the hate crime community.
F Ll C K T H E M.
Ordinary people were attending prayer on a Friday afternoon, defenceless and humble, they had their lives taken from them by a despicable animal. Decent people, men, women, children, no-one was spared. Our Prime Minister called it when she said that everyone in New Zealand is affected by this. This is a country where communities, especially in Christchurch, which was so badly damaged by the earthquake in 2011, are tight knit. We will come together to support them, and pray for the victims and their families, and grieve with them.
It happens everywhere and we were naive enough to think that it would never happen here. No-one knows what tomorrow is going to be like in NZ, but at 1.30 a.m., I am going to enjoy this game and the rest of this season, whatever the outcome.

Never realised you are in NZ. I'm sure it does feel surreal.
Hope the game is a good distraction for a couple of hours.

Totally right. Compared to some of the horrors that real life can bring, football is nothing more than a pleasant distraction. Our thoughts are with all those who were affected by the mindless violence perpetrated on the innocent people of Christchurch.

Well said
Now the game is done, Bielsa fantastic comments before the game and all the best. Horrendous what has happened in New Zealand. And I too had a smiliar naive view that it just couldn’t happen over there. Terrorism is clearly capable of attacking anyone.
We just have to remember that people with such horrific views and ideals in that they would want to kill innocent people are so rare and while these incident create huge publicity, the positive things the vast majority of people do every day far outweigh the negatives. It’s only a tiny minority of people that are bad.
Gutted with that and we got what we deserved. 24 points to play for but now we're relying on favours from other teams and it is favours, neother Norwich or Sheff Utd look like dropping points, one scores plenty of goals, one doesn't concede them. Few points id like to make
* Wtf is up with Ayling again
* Cooper had a stinker
* Wtf was the keeper doing bringing Sharp down, it wasn't 0-0 ffs
* Jansson's knee issue was a hindrance and hopefully that clears up
* Why did Douglas come on for Harrison? He was doing ok and Douglas was poor to say the least.
Gotta try listen to my heart instead of my head. Herart says we'll still do it, head says we showed our bottle today, bottle job that is.
