Southampton FC legend Matt Le Tissier has "stepped aside" from his role as an ambassador at the club after suggesting the media has lied in its reporting of civilian deaths in Ukraine.

Le Tissier deleted his post following a backlash over the claims he shared and sought to clarify his position by saying "the point was about media manipulation".
The retired footballer posted another update on Wednesday morning to make it "very clear" he does "not advocate war in any way shape or form", adding he did not "advocate anyone taking lives of others and anyone who commits such acts should be dealt with accordingly". Guernsey-born Le Tissier, who played 540 times for Southampton and scored 209 goals, then announced he has decided to "step aside" from his position at the club. "To all the fans of SFC. I have decided to step aside from my role as an ambassador of SFC. My views are my own and always have been, and it's important to take this step today to avoid any confusion," he wrote.

what was in the original post, it must have been controversial.
I actually find it a bit concerning that the media believe whatever the ukrainians say. War is not like that, it's full of exaggeration and misinformation from both sides |

No I didn't, I just asked what the crime was. I like Hunter from what I know of him. Why would a leftist like Joe Biden? Makes no sense. I still don't know what crime he's accused of committing.

Shame he took the easy route and opted to cancel himself instead of explaining the beliefs he was co-signing, I bet he had some real riveting revelations to share.

He doesn't have to explain himself to anyone, he's a free citizen. He can do as he pleases just like you can. You don't own him.

He did explain himself though
Le Tissier deleted his post following a backlash over the claims he shared and sought to clarify his position by saying "the point was about media manipulation". The retired footballer posted another update on Wednesday morning to make it "very clear" he does "not advocate war in any way shape or form", adding he did not "advocate anyone taking lives of others and anyone who commits such acts should be dealt with accordingly". And I doubt he stepped aside willingly!

This is who you are currently standing in solidarity with.

Bless I give it a solid 2/10 for attempting to shoehorn hard left into a thread about MLT, but not understanding what political groups actually stand for still leaves you making the same errors, but that's just typical of the alt-right I guess
