Wait, so Iran sent 5 British doggers in some vans with no explosives and some petrol canisters to RAF Fairford? Is that all they've got?

If City are relegated to the Championship, does the Football League then punish them separately?

That Hackney lad. There's a player there. George n'all. Made up for Ainsley. So long as we have no injuries AT ALL, EVER we'll be absolutely fine this season.

Modern football: 52 seconds of play, 4 minutes of Harry Maguire receiving treatment.

If you can't keep cars off the road when you're holding a bike race, you shouldn't be allowed to stage a bike race. End of. Fewer races. Safer for riders.

This is the most Everton transfer deadline day since Muller walked out. So far, anyway.

Hey Everton, we really need to sign a full back. Sell a full back, you say? OK! No no no - BUY a full-back. Send one out on loan, you say? OK!

Alright Evertonians, it seems we have power. Let's get this Kenny Tete deal overturned and bring Mbappe in.

Kenny Tete in. Harrison Armstrong out. We are broke again, aren't we.

Yes, a Thierno Barry hat-trick is nice. But what's more important? A Thierno Barry hat-trick, or survival? HMM?

If you can't organise a road race, don't stage it. Simple as that.

As someone who never wants the best for our redshite tenant friends across the park... I wouldn't wish Bezos on them. That's just too cruel.

We tried to transfer your new German defender but you were out so we left him with you neighbour, Everton FC.

If I were commentating on the Tour de Pologne, I would at the very least google how to pronounce place names. Maybe I'm naive?

Feeling very distant from this Tour de France without ITV AND NSF. Perhaps the least interested I’ve been since the early 90s. Shows we need free to air…

Well, it was 100 years ago today that the Tour went from Bayonne to Luchon and it all went tits up. That's putting it lightly. Read the story of those who were plucked from the mountainside, nearly 24 hours after starting the stage. www.amazon.co.uk/We-Rode-All-...

I really do miss Never Strays Far, it was the only cycling podcast I listened to. All this talk about actual racing doesn't sit right. A review of the Tour de Suisse? No thanks. Give me Ned Boulting wandering around the route of Etoile de Besseges any day.

So much cynicism around right now. A fella stands up and says he has a vision to make things better and cheaper, and he's got a plan to do it. Which is what everyone has been asking for. The response: pff, you're never going to do that, what's the point.

The best thing about summer is - and has always been - seeing England's bowlers getting roundly thrashed by the touring team. This is possibly the most "English cricket supporter" post I've ever written. But it is the best. I started with Miandad in 87, Waugh in 89 and think it's great.
