Similar line used about Newcastle United before PIF takeover. NUFC, City - probably a few others like Everton, Villa too - treated like plucky little scamps, whose hair is always ready to be tousled. Always a bit weird.

When was the last time an English team signed the 'best player in the world'? Or anyone even close to that? Heck, when was the last time that the 'best player in the world' played in England? Hazard 2015 closest, but even then he wasn't *the best* PL market department is the best, that's about it

Apparently there's talk of a disused care home facility in the village being used to house mothers and babies seeking asylum here. Naturally the local FB group is showing just why first the Tories, and now Reform have such a stranglehold on this area.

As a long time Xbox man, all I can say is that I grow less and less inclined to give a shit about either Xbox or Microsoft with each passing news cycle, because it inevitably just brings more grim tidings carried out purely to please shareholders rather than actual people.

The behaviour of Manchester City's ownership has been fundamentally incompatible with the responsibilities of being a custodian of a priceless cultural organisation and so they must be drummed out of English football.

A club guilty of a decade-long scheme to submit false financial information to the league, for the purpose of securing an unfair on-field advantage, should not only be thrown out of the league and have all its titles vacated, its owner should be compelled to sell the club.

An upshot of the totally negligible impact of small boat crossings being the only story in the UK that matters is Reform councils ruining people’s lives. The media is culpable here, but people also need to get real. The small boat thing is fake. It doesn’t affect you. www.bbc.com/news/article...

What really gets me about Nandy is that she just doesn't seem to be *anywhere*. You don't see her at Proms, or in West End, or at whatever big musical tour, or even at Premier League game or Cup final (football is a big part of UK culture after all). She's just nowhere. Almost permanently silent.

Very 'and another thing', but having a pre-show advert roll, and then (so far) two advert breaks - predict at least two more based on time gone/remaining - once again brings into question what the point of paying for streaming services is. Stupid thing here is I think I have the DVD somewhere 😆🙈

Re-watching Halo: Forward Unto Dawn Remember when whoever was in charge of Halo oversaw stuff like this (valiant in its attempt if nothing else), and those brilliant Halo 3 teasers set in the museum? Now, 'Halo Studios' don't even make Halo games, and you're more likely to see Master Chief dancing

Appreciate that likelihood of repercussions or rioting from a bunch of people holding up signs in support for Palestine is *much* lower than from a gaggle of balaclava clad dipshits, but there's a point where you start to struggle with how some situations are handled by the plod compared to others.

Yes. “If you defund and deplatform anti-racists then that will force their movement underground, and then they will be truly dangerous!” is never, ever an argument you will hear from the right-wing media. Because they know very well that defunding and deplatforming *actually works*.
