My expectations were confounded and from thence the humour arose

ratemypoo.com () got there first

This him?

Just as long as we're all agreed that Piers Morgan is an even bigger moron.

They must know there's no point even trying to beat this Giorgio Moroder classic.

I told my parkrun crew that Carvajal would knack himself trying to do a backheel, beat that

Next up: Keegan wasn't the best tactician

In other "countries slowly entering the modern age" news, fingers crossed for Ireland for tomorrow, obviously.

Happy 30th anniversary of Section 28, everybody. https://www.buzzfeed.com/patrickstrudwick/30-years-ago-today-teachers-were-banned-from-mentioning?utm_term=.ndExJ0XxG#.ueDkYP6kM (Good piece for the most part, though it strikes me that a lot of what he calls for in terms of education - about feelings, emotions, boundaries, rights - was also completely absent from hetero-only sex education/PSE when I was at school. Do kids learn about any of that stuff nowadays or is it still just bodily functions and that's your lot?)

Thought this was an interesting read, not only (but partly) answering your question too as it happens: http://www2.politicalbetting.com/index.php/archives/2018/05/23/unofficial-monster-raving-loonies-decoding-the-brexit-customs-union-row/

I'm pretty much resigned to it for a generation and more now, it'll take a completely different set of people with a completely different approach to make a difference to any of it. No pressure on all of your kids like.

Ah, fanny friendly purulence.

I'm sure you mean she oozes a very family friendly existence, and nothing else.

Only ones who don't lisp though.

I'm hoping they'll have some of the properly older ones too (the guide only goes up to the 6th or so at the minute). I remember seeing the 1958 film and it's amazing, as much for the crisp footage of post-war Swedish city life as the stuff on the pitch. (Niche interest, but hey. )

The History channel goes full-on football from this Monday (which will surely delight fans of documentaries about Adolf Hitler's dental records and the like). Just set a load of stuff to record, there's some decent bits and bobs in there - all the official World Cup films from 1970 to 1998 (except 1994 for some reason), One Night In Turin, various other documentaries... and a bunch of Premier League Years for some reason, but there we are.

She's good on HIGNFY though. Worked well for Boris.

It's a fair enough comparison, mid-2000s Dortmund benefited hugely from their spell in the third tier and... oh wait, no, even when they were essentially bankrupt they didn't finish lower than 13th in the top flight.
