Manchester City cheated Premier League rules, the Commission found. Did it also cheat HMRC? We've examined the decision and leaked Mancini documents. We think City likely failed to pay £12m in tax. There should be a criminal investigation. Thread:

how is that TT stages so often have shite coverage/timing info. Todays Poland one is a typical example but it happens regularly.

2/3 - seixas one failed. having to chase back on from mechanical at critical time didnt help him at all. Win for Del Toro, gifted by Pog. Some will no doubt say great teamwork - I say it's bad optics for the sport

TDF S2 - I'm in the camp that there will be a GC battle but not necessarily for the stage win. Done a treble for some of the more favoured riders

4/5 ... Movistar were the ones that let me down. they were well ahead on the road of their matchup and then Uijtdebroek went pop and the team sat up and nursed him to the finish. crazy and annoying tactics

done an acca for some betting interest for today's TTT. gone with matchups away from the favoured TT teams.

two things to take away from that TTT 1) Still prefer normal format than this one 2) Cummings shouldn't be anywhere near comms Good effort there by EF to hang on to yellow

It’s the 68th anniversary of the fatal stabbing of mob enforcer Johnny Stompanato. Famously, it wasn’t a rival mobster who did him in in some creative, Godfather-like way, but Lana Turner’s 14-year-old daughter Cheryl Crane, who stabbed him for beating up her mother. Probably... 🧵
b/w photo of Stompanato and Turner: he an Italian-American gentleman of some stature, she a delicate movie star

I have seen lots of enthusiastic posting about what a great idea this is. And don't get me wrong, I get the frustration with electricity prices spiking so high when gas prices rise. But so far I've seen far too many half baked solutions being thrown around that don't really add up. 🔌💡 (1/12)

It is the anniversary of the My Lai massacre today. I'd say that even more than most years, it's important to remember what happened. And the role Hugh Thompson, an active serviceman, played in both stopping and publicising it. Despite enormous military, political and public pressure to stay quiet.

MVDP wins #OHN26 as expected. Not a good edition to watch tbh .. too many crashes at critical times to make it a proper race. Hope everyone is ok
