At the weekend @chris-stokes.bsky.social was clearing out the loft and found a load of old videos. So of course @soozuk.bsky.social and Masud couldn't resist a mini game of VHGuess in our WhatsApp chat. And a NEW episode of VHGuess drops tomorrow!

Broken feet! ACL nightmares! WAGs eating £400 meals! A manager picking a teen who had never played in the Premier League! THAT. FUCKING. WINK. Relive the Golden Generation (the era when we sometimes went home in the group stage). @mysteryontherocks.bsky.social podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/m...

Really really recommend subscribing to Mystery on the Rocks for tomorrow's episode. I don't even get in to Sven's meetings with The Fake Sheikh OR the fact that he later admitted he felt pressured by fans and the press to include certain players on the team even though he didn't want to. Insane era.

I had to speak with a UK Gov agency today (always fun) and they wouldn't speak to me unless I said my dead name out loud, which I said was ridiculous because it's never been associated with the reason I have an account with the agency, and now all my email auto-notifications are set to dead name 💀

Ok, this is the big one. The Wall Street Crash of 1929. You can link a LOT of where we are now to what happened then and I'm proud that we did his deep-dive. Listen with your ears.

When you read this stuff from people, whether it's about trans people or any other minority, how can you see anything other than someone just admitting they're a supremacist? Of course you think every member of the group you hate is disgusting, that's why you are what you are

No. Trans people won’t start peeing on the floor. They’ll either get arrested or leave the state. It’s not a distraction. They really do hate us and want us gone and it’s the main event. The reaction will be assault or arrest. There. Now you know.

Liberal responses to this, while well meaning, often make me sick. “Well just piss on the floor then!” “This is a distraction.” “What will their reaction be when a passing woman enters a mens bathroom, that will sure show them.” Like none of this makes it better. It’s not funny, it’s not a gotcha.
