Andy Burnham's comments today expose the situation of selling national football teams to foreign states. He's taking a view, at least in one reading of his comments, that corrupting the national game is not as big an issue as potentially losing foreign investment in Manchester.

That Chelsea kit is heinous, it looks like something you’d wear to a school netball tournament.

Right-wing newspapers are killing the Tories with kindness
Little wonder some in the party are in denial about what could be about to hit them – they’re heading for a cliff and all they can hear is cheering.

Is submitting inflated sponsorship figures not just straight up fraud (as well as a rule break)?

www.premierleague.com/en/news/4727... This is incredible. £900m. Almost a billion that we know about, between 2010 and 2018 (if it stopped right there). The scale of it is enormous.

Oasis ticket cycle: - Signed up for a code - Saw ticket prices and thought no - Got a code and was very tempted - Thousands ahead of me in the queue took the financial decision out of my hands.

The investigations/charges only go up to 2018 but make no mistake: everything - absolutely everything - that City have done in the years since was built on the foundations of these breaches as well. And everything they continue to do in the coming years. There is no separating these things.

There was a song during spinning that I only know from reels. I don’t think the words are English and there’s a lot of wah wah wah and sung by a woman. Surprisingly that didn’t find me the answer.

The Wargame feels like Michael Gove came up with an idea and producers were like “ah screw it, at least it means we don’t have to think of anything new.”

It is in keeping with the entire saga of Diana's death in that there is zero consideration from anyone about the emotional wellbeing of her bereaved children.

Jim Ratcliffe can opine on the state of things when he pays tax in the UK. Until then, focus on running your football club into the ground further.
