Bowie starting alongside McBurnie a good move based on Saturday - offered a lot in his sub appearance. Interested to see how Binks does - surprised Welsh dropped though, thought he grew into the game on Saturday.

David Yelland as a political pundit on the BBC? The man behind the Sun piece “why the BBC should be shut down”? The man who was editor of the Sun during the the first era of alleged phone hacking? Get to actual fuck.

Well, Andy, if you’re so confident in all parts in Britain, and so confident about the need for electoral reform, let Scotland have another independence referendum. Put your money where your mouth is.

Super cool. Here’s a class traitor dispatch: when you start to make more money you start to pay more taxes. The size of the checks you send to the govt have big numbers on them. It’s unsettling. You need a strategy & that strategy is SUCK IT UP MOTHERFUCKER.

The BBC news summary this morning went seamlessly from "critics warn PM scrapping triple lock would be electoral suicide" to "critics ask if PM has nerve to make tough decisions" and I don't think it's a particularly pro Burnham stance to suggest he might not be the entire problem here.

Funny how UEFA will bend over backwards to investigate racism accusations in pretty much any other circumstances.

Alleged racism against Idah will not be investigated
An alleged racist incident involving Ireland goalscorer Adam Idah will not be investigated by UEFA because it wasn't explicitly mentioned on the pitch.

The National’s sister paper has spent the last year writing PR for the Orange Order, including two McKenna front pages attacking the Scottish Govt for not supporting them. Amusing to see them now being concerned…

Again, the BBC could immediately save £450k by getting rid of Laura K. Nine senior journalist salaries worth of staff in News or Sport you could cover from her salary.

I blame Sky. Clearly the Russians watched The Wargame, thought Gove was going to nuke them and decided to get their retaliation in first. Bloody Gove.

Last June, Andy Burnham was on a platform with Del Naja in support of the Fossil Fuel Non Proliferation Treaty, praising his ‘clarity and leadership’. Today, he’s having Rob arrested under the Terrorism Act for holding a piece of paper.

What has emerged at a later part of the FAI press conference: Knowing the circumstances of the upcoming games, the FAI did a trawl of prospective callups and checked with abut 30 of the most likely players to ensure they were comfortable fulfilling those fixtures. Goalkeepers were not among them.
