I think Prime has all the official Fifa World Cup films as well. Some of them are obviously dated but they were filmed back when that medium was far superior to the stuff going out on tv. Different perspectives on some classic goals too. Carlos Alberto’s goal v Italy in the 70 final is probably even better view from high on the other side of the pitch, especially the finish

Everyone including Ray Houghton. Think it was his dad like but never mind. When he scored he looked like he didn’t know what to do. Paul McGrath in that game as well. Especially when you consider Baggio (the white one) was a genius at just about the peak of his powers

I didn’t even notice until he mentioned it

Actually you probably had a better side than in 1990.

I saw that. He seemed unaware that was even the case. It’s plausible that he’s incompetent enough for that to be true

Taylor was vilified by a horrendous English sporting press in much the same way as Robson before him. I do feel he played it ultra safe at times and I do think he was found out at that level. Preferring grafters in central midfield etc. But he seemed like a nice fella and the treatment he got was fucking disgusting tbh. He was still unlucky not to qualify in a tough group back when it was a lot harder to get to a World Cup. If he’d been able to play Shearer more he might’ve gotten to the finals

Haven’t watched it properly but the bit in season 1 when the second Burton goal goes in 😂

Even in these strange times it’s reassuring that you can rely on Premier League players to keep reminding everyone what selfish arseholes they are

Well I applauded with the kids and my lass (who’s a nurse) but I thought it was bullshit last week and said as much (and still do). It’s a gesture copied off other countries (where shit had hit the fan) before it happened here. I admit I’m a cynical cunt like and I also concede there’s lots of people who are sincere about but you can guarantee a lot of the most enthusiastic think the tories are too left wing and are still wearing dog-eared poppies.

Fucking hell

Johnson is way out of his depth and he knows it and probably knew it way before this all happened. For now he is the main influence on Johnson. He’s the de facto pm

They cycle seems to be - heavy criticism of the government over a failure of some sort in regard to tackling the crisis; the government promising x, y and z to fix the problem; the promise not being fulfilled; repeat

Even if we were testing as many people as we claim to be (10,000, which is doubtful) that would take about 18 years to test the whole population, if my quick calculations are right

Not defending Leave voters as they’re clearly the motivation behind the decision but the UK government did make a conscious (and completely unnecessary) decision to opt out didn’t they?

Yeah but people stood outside and clapped and banged on pots and pans for the NHS.

It was a bit later than that. It was still the Barley Mow until about 95-ish I think. Egypt Cottage was good before they ruined it too. Bloke who had the Barley Mow has The Tyne now I think

He can’t concentrate for very long though. I don’t mean that flippantly, I think it’s actually the case. And he’s a fucking psychopath

That would be the worst bit of fraud ever from ewerk’s pov

Ask him to send an email next time

And drugs

Blue if you’re immune. Dark blue if you’re dead

Imagine that, basically being a low rent Katie Hopkins. Horrible little cunt. Probably keeps chickens

He’ll blame the Chinese. Whether he gets elected or not will depend on how many he’s able to convince. If shit gets really bad for him he could go down the route of full on conspira-loon and says it’s been deliberate. Alex Jones et al will certainly be claiming this (if they aren’t already).

But logically he should never have been elected in the first place. I’d like to think this finishes his chances but who knows?

Just caught Peter Hitchins on GMTV reminding everyone what an absolute cunt he is
