Kevin Sinfield is what every parent should aspire for their sons to be. The video of Rob Burrow's young son in that article tipped me over the edge

Some great names in the replies. For me has to be Barnes, Brolin, and Roque Jr. One name not mentioned yet from our darker days - Billy Sharp

Nick Harris over on X is posting some devastating stuff re Man City. One I’ve seen this morning is a copy of an email between Man C and Etihad which confirms the Airline will only pay £8m of the £35m a year sponsorship deal 😂😂 #lufc

I do think it needs to be a multi-year points deduction. A monster points deduction for one year followed by them romping the Championship next year really doesn't do much, and risks making two seasons a bit of a mockery

Didn't EPL and EFL recently reach an agreement about punishments being respected by each because of the Leicester "we're not in your league anymore so it can't be enforced" defence? Or am I getting confused with all the cheating? Surely they are looking at something akin to Rangers up north.

Double jeopardy grant review is a thing. On re-review of a grant at CIHR the success rate goes up when you have more reviewers re-reviewing the sequential resubmission. It rises to 59% success rate if all 3 reviewers re-review a grant vs 21% with no common reviewers. Let that sink in … 🤔

Gayle's own goal at Bramall Lane, with Cantona's at home to Chelsea the same season a close second (people forget Paul Elliott was being touted as one of the top defenders in the league at the time)

Corrected the Orange pedo's latest Canada post "USA is destroying itself by allowing millions and millions of people to own guns, essentially unchecked and unvetted, and who are causing problems that will soon be too big to handle." Orders of magnitude more accurate than his senility dribblings

Getting this out there now. I'll be perfectly happy if we get 5 points from our next batch of 5 games after the break #lufc

That's some wonderfully comical defending by them from t'other side o'hills

Don't disagree about not controlling mid, but thought that was more a function of Stach and to a lesser degree Ampadu

Take a point given how that game played out. Did nowhere near enough to win. #lufc

Surprised Tanaka is off. Stach has been completely anonymous again. #lufc

Too sloppy and not really getting going. Half yard off it all over field. It's there to be won, but we're playing their game too much. #lufc.

Villa taking the piss here. Playing at walking pace and Spurs still can't get near them

Highlight of my #lufc TV coverage, even with the crowd sound being somewhat muted on the coverage, South Stand and parts of East in full Let's Go Fucking Mental mode after the 4th. Yellow shirts really made it look class.

Agree that Palace and Fulham are looking like the most likely of the "established" sides to be in trouble. And I wouldn't rule Spurs out of another flirt
