iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Re the England game - in a world where people increasingly can't trust their eyes or believe in a shared reality, I very strongly believe we shouldn't let broadcasters surreptitiously replace real pitchside ads with fake digital ones

This is absolutely dogshit stuff. Polanski has no answer for a Labour government actually doing left-leaning things. His goose is cooked

Someone please teach Andy Burnham how to speak from his diaphragm when he does the loud bellowy bit. Suck your belly button in towards your spine Andy!

I'm reading about the Buffalo Bills' new stadium. The taxpayer paid $850m to it, the average game ticket is $610, and season ticket holders at the old stadium had to pay a one-off fee of $750- $50,000 for the *right* to pay *more* money and buy their new season ticket. Seriously, WHAT IS THE USA?

This article is poor and riddled with factual errors. I'm fed-up of football journalists totally ignoring the Fan-Led Review, and the lower and non-league clubs that lobbied to have an alcohol pilot included as a financial lifeline to stop them going bust www.theguardian.com/football/202...

It's a huge management failure that the FA has a strategy around training age group teams to play possession football (literally called "The England DNA") that the senior team coach doesn't believe in. If Tuchel doesn't buy into the strategy, he shouldn't be in the job inews.co.uk/sport/footba...

It's not the headline of this Man City affair, but the likelihood of someone (Brighton?) sneaking through the chaos and pulling a Leicester has definitely increased

What we learned from the great alcohol football debate: - Andy Burnham shooting from the hip is counter-productive - English people love making up a guy to feel superior to ("pint chuckers" ffs) and it should be studied - No football journalist actually read the Fan-Led Review

Manchester City deserve to be liquidated (for their true crime, those fucking horrendous double-decker advertising hoardings)

Alex Wilson @adjwilson.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

The extent to which the English have invented the "pint chucker" as a serious social problem based on a couple of viral videos deserves serious study. Much like the "nonce", they have become the phantom menace that we should both be terrified of, and feel righteously superior to.

Manchester United fans doing "he's in your heeeeaaaaaaad" EFL slop chants is the moment they truly stopped being a big football club

Absolutely insane refereeing. If Fernandez isn't standing in the middle of the box to go for the ball, he doesn't draw a defender and Haaland isn't free. Surely this is *basic* stuff?

Absolutely zero atmosphere in this Manchester derby. It's mad what English football's become

I am in a *museum* and the *staff* are all watching loud TikToks on their phones. Infinite scroll short-video apps have melted everyone's brains. I'm genuinely starting to think we should just ban them

I'm currently seeing an avalanche of social media posts ripping people to shreds for filming at gigs and sports events, and it really does feel like the culture is finally starting to change (about fucking time)

PSA: I discovered yesterday that M&S do an alcohol-free Czech pilsner that is comfortably the best non-alcoholic lager I've ever had. I demolished three of them on the train back from football yesterday like they were real beers

Considering the Premier League is supposed to be a premium product, those constantly moving LEDs around the pitch aren't half annoying and trashy

There's a lot of things happening in the Premier League at the moment that is making matchgoing fans feel alienated and like their culture is under threat, and I'm starting to think it's going to radicalise them in a direction you don't want them to be radicalised
