That pr*ck Maupay absolutely skies a penalty. Moonraker is probably on ITV4 and it’s probably better than this.

We’re trying our best to send Everton down, that’s all I can ask of them.

The only striker in the world with a 1:1 goals to contracts ratio.

Not sure where the creativity is in that line up. 3 CM, 2 ST and Moi.

It would be an absolute fairy tale to see the people of a starving, war torn, poverty stricken, diseased sh*t hole have some small glimmer of hope to get behind. Having said that, I wouldn’t begrudge Ukraine a place in the tournament either.

Not really. When half your fixtures are against Bahrain or Turks and Caicos Islands, that tends to happen. FIFA rankings are largely nonsense.

Can’t ask for a more p*ss easy group than that. We will probably still make a meal of it.

Qatar vs. Ecuador to open the tournament. Nothing like a couple of Galacticos to start us off with a bang.

A shame they can’t get Serbia’s group. That’d probably top Usa-Iran for lolz.

Priceless! 😂

Russia says attacking the oil depot with a couple of helicopters will harm the ceasefire negotiations. The blitzing of Mariupol and 170,000 civilians apparently not a problem though. It really is incredible how brazen some regimes can be.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-60947028 An interesting piece of legislation which highlights why IMO the acronym LGBTQ+ isn’t valid or a fair way of grouping completely different issues.

Bog standard negotiating tactic, would ready literally nothing into that.

Annie Lennox is looking a bit rough these days.

Be very careful guys, you’re dangerously close to agreeing on this issue.

Initially I was against it, my thinking being that the plucky draw at OT or the Etihad becomes less likely if they can just bring on an entirely different, fresh, top class attacking line-up if it's 1-1 after an hour. The flip side of that is that the smaller teams invariably tire first, chasing the game and being out of possession. We can also afford to be a bit dirtier and replace more players on bookings if needs be. It'll probably suit our style overall and be a benefit against teams around us, even if we do lose out more often to bigger clubs. We just need the players on the bench to do it.

We could give him some Clubcard points and a light Smorgasbord.

Dirty Fowls A campaign to improve sanitary conditions at battery hen farms.

I thought Simeu was insane? Or was it Small?

A lack of outrage would be portrayed as people not caring about violence and insults against black people. Media and social media is flooded with comments about racism and toxic masculinity. Amazing how a black man punching another black man manages to get twisted into a black person being assaulted by an aggressive male and never the other way round.

But who makes this list of approved comedy? What can you joke about? A bald bloke, a tall bloke, a fat bloke, a short bloke, a ginger bloke, a guy with a leg missing, Rob Beckett’s big teeth, Bill Bailey’s ‘troll’ appearance, what’s allowed and what isn’t? Jackass spent years building stunts and sketches built around Wee-Man’s dwarfism and Preston’s obesity.

Since you mention it, my mum was treated with chemo about ten years ago and lost all her hair. Both our family and her friends would make light of it from time to time, upsetting though it was, as a way of dealing with it. Would I want some gobsh*te taking the p*ss out of her on stage, obviously not, but the point is comedy is subjective. Many celebrities have dealt with much more serious issues than hair loss with grace and good humour, without resorting to violence.

Spoken like every wife beater there’s ever been.

Seriously, you’re condoning someone responding to jokes with physical violence? I don’t care what he said, Smith’s response was inexcusable. Lots of things in life are upsetting but if we start assaulting anyone who makes jokes about them, that leads to a very dark place.

Been there once, just before Christmas in 2009. Nigh on froze my tits off. Dreadful game, lost 1-0.
