Renton

To the converted maybe. I like the Lincoln Project mind, the yank version of Led By Donkeys.

This has been fed to me by the Google algorithm. Suggests early voting is favouring Harris. Could be bullshit though, I have no feeling for US politics at this level.

Am wondering why the fuck Brian Cox is on there after reading that. Follows hot on the news that Neil Degrasse Tyson is mates with Elon Musk. Just, why?

Who is this Joe Rogan person? Sorry if that sounds incredibly ignorant but I've only a vague notion he is a podcaster who has interviewed a fuck ton of famous people. I saw him interview Prof Brian Cox on my YouTube feed and what was okay, albeit Rogan said fuck all. Is it just recently he's migrated to the alt right? Also his name reminds me of Rogan Josh. Hmmmmm, Rogan Josh.

Half way through Sweet Pea. Very enjoyable. Ella Purnell is ace, and I see she's starring in Fallout too, which is on the list.

I think Howe has to go all out. If Palmer is rested, we'll win. We've got a good home record against Chelsea haven't we?

We'll win on Wednesday. If we don't, I'm officially worried.

Enjoyed that. My favourite quote, referring to Musk: "It has the feel of maybe the second-to-last Elvis tour. We’re entering the Fat Elvis phase." I like this quote as well, cos it's how I feel unfortunately: "There seem to be people that go through life with no regrets and then there’s people like me." I hope this guy is right and we're not just liking the article because it's telling us what we want to hear.

Aye, I reckon that's it. Experienced it myself, you lose a line manager you worked well with, and suddenly you're exposed to the bullshit from the big cheeses, and searching LinkedIn for other opportunities every evening.

Agreed.

Yeah. I think the departure of Staveley was a big loss behind the scenes for Howe and some players. Happy to give Howe the season but no manager lasts forever. Anyway, it's only football.

Get Pope up

Are people turning here? Seems an odd time to do it. We're playing a bit better without look (or a decent number 9 type striker). Lose on Wednesday though and it feels like it's slipping away for Howe. We've only got the domestic ups left.

Howay, one last throw of the dice lads.

Ffs. What's the point. Soft as fuck.

Much better than I feared so far.

I know we've benefited but VAR can get to fuck. I thought they were cutting this shit out?

Fucking joke this.

Remember the omeprazole mate. This is gonna be a hard watch like.

This is it. Play off place and the usual loss at Wembley on penalties please. Thing about them being promoted and being relegated is it means they're shit at a higher level. I want them to be shit at the lowest level feasibly possible. I want them to experience misery on top of their misery. Other than that they're canny lads, wishing them all the best. 👍

Erm, me. Too stressful. Let's be honest, who doesn't want sunderland to be relegated to the national league?

It's October. Without wanting to sound too, well, mackemesque about it, they've had a hell of a lot of luck, that late goal against Leeds being a prime example. That doesn't happen, they're only a point above the Yorkshire puddings. I don't think they've got the depth for a top 2 finish, think that will go to the Yorkshire clubs and/or Burnley. Could well go up through the play offs but that is a long way away.

Aye, needs proper disposal due to release of the refrigerant completely fucking the biosphere. I was trying to crowbar some joke about "dripping like a broken fridge" here without success. Even resorted to Google for inspiration and somehow came across this filth from @PaddockLad. Disgusting, difficult to tell who's worse, him or his mate MF.

I mean, I've never been but it looks amazing on travel programmes. There's nowhere better than Italy, just go for it.

Ha ha. You'll get back and have the post holiday depression, mingling in withthe rest of us who just have the bog standard depression.
