No one should pretend we’ve turned a corner or anything. We may well lose the next two but at least today suggested that it isn’t all doom and gloom at Latics.

Last match I came to was a win too - the 3-1 win over Northampton Town at the beginning of last season when Lowe was in charge. Hoping to see a couple more this season. (Live matches I mean, not wins 😂)

Thought Jensen Weir was outstanding especially in the first half so him. (But I’d understand anyone voting for Saydee because he changed the game.)

If Putin stops fighting, the war ends. If Zelensky stops fighting then his country will be occupied, leaders murdered, language banned, businesses stolen, children kidnapped. That's what happens in Russian-occupied Ukraine.

Hey folks. In total honesty my tour is NOT selling well. I’ve sold 30 tickets in a 400 seater in Birmingham, and not much more elsewhere. If you like musical comedy, if you like standup, then please come see my show! And spread the word! The Rachel Parris Songbook tour starts in Nov! Link in bio! 🎶

Schröder. Maaßen. Now Hanning. These aren’t isolated scandals. It’s systemic and ongoing for decades: the German government and security establishment are compromised. This case was discovered by accident. Anyone who thinks we’ve found the last breach is kidding themselves.

With typical elegance, @stephenkb.bsky.social sets out what it would take for political leaders to address society as it now is. This is hard but not impossible. I continue to believe it could even be popular to publicly model and advocate for a shared reality. www.ft.com/content/1f92...

I can now reveal that crypto billionaire Ben Delo—pardoned by Trump after a conviction for anti-money-laundering violations—privately funded the failed libel action brought against me by neo-Nazi conspiracy theorists Nina Power and Daniel Miller to the tune of at least £300,000.

However, we still don’t look like we know what to do with the ball in the box and we look so lightweight a lot of the time. We played with more confidence than I thought we would and that’s testament to Gary and his team. We will get better, I’m convinced of it #wafc

A nice perspective Pete and a reminder of how we all start with our team. Our club’s come a long way since we started going (1979 in my case) and while we seem to be going backwards atm, we will come back again. (And I do think things will improve this season.)

I for one have had enough of people who can barely speak English, living on benefits, ignoring our laws and wearing weird clothes that cover up their faces. So it was disappointing to see a few hundred of them gathered in Dover today.

On the other hand, I don’t believe for a second that we’ve got a bottom-of-the-table budget either. We need to get more out of these players and I do think we will improve but my goodness, do we need to. There was an absolute litany of weaknesses on display there today.

They’re just very calmly passing the ball round our press and then move it quickly up field leaving our midfield stranded.
