I agree. This terrorist attack on Israel by Hamas made the IRA bombing campaign of the UK look mild in comparison.
Nothing wrong with posting his outrage as a result (unless he said “all palestines / moslems (delete as appropriate) must DIE” or similar. I can’t remember what his post said but I remember thinking at the time it was a natural emotional response.
Ps. I’m not taking sides. I think Israel’s response in the Gaza Strip has been despicable also. Can’t say which is worse. Both sides are not nice people.
I don't want to go into the politics.
Broadly agree Hamas's attack was heinous and a lot of Israel's actions have been unconscionable .
Re: Solomon. People are letting their own prejudices get in the way of the facts.
Football fans do that every day - it's a little different this time.
We brought him back & immediately sent him to Fiorentina on loan

Well it’s pretty obvious who was behind that decision!We brought him back & immediately sent him to Fiorentina on loan
TBH we could have probably done with keeping him as I’m sure he could have made an impact on the left considering our depleted numbers.

He's shit, that'll be why.
When he played for us, before the injury, he was looking lively... Got two assists for Son, played well against the scum, then got the injury.
I don't think was as shit as some people make out. Was far better that Timo, Tel, and Johnson out on the left... Better by far from what I can remember.

Nowhere near good enough.
Maybe, but a lot better than the no one, we really have right now.
But we're looking to aim higher than these guys regardless, we should be doing much better than Manor Solomon.
And I fully agree, but for now until the end of the season, he could have done a job and would have cost us nothing, as he was already our player... As well as putting him in the shop window.
Rather get something for him, than nothing and yet another player walking on a free.
No he wouldn't have
He was good for Leeds in the Championship and couldn't even get off the bench for Villareal who are shit.
Just another shit player clogging up the squad and does fuck all when he's on the pitch and Frank's tactics wouldn't even lend to him anyway - I'd honestly rather Tel play than Solomon.
He's not gonna walk away for free anyway, his contract runs out in 2028.
What are the feelings now about Solomon , no idea how is doing in Italy but he is a Championship quality player with a great goal and assist record at Leeds . If we go down do we bring him in or get rid.
He’d easily kill that league. Have to remember Burnley under Kompany looked like prime Messi Barca. Yes it’s a tough league in some ways but the quality is vastly inferior.
I go to a lot of Hull games being there myself when spurs ain't on when Hull played Leeds he was on loan there and he was a cut above anyone.
Like you say the championship if a tough league very physical but if someone is prem level they stand out like a sore thumb
If he comes back and we end up playing him he will do well
He was v.good for Leeds down there. Was v.surprised they didn't sign him on a perm tbh.
Probably because they like us didn't think he was good enough for the PL, if we go down we need to come straight back , we are bound to sell some of the current squad to cut costs and Solomon is like a freebie , no transfer cost and not massive wages and Championship proven regardless of his politics.
The 26-year-old winger spent the 2024/25 season on loan at Leeds United in the Championship and registered 22 goal contributions (10 goals, 12 assists) in 39 league appearances.
