Man City are a good side and we can chalk it up to a bad day all we want but that’s the most Bruce-like I’ve seen us under Howe tbh. Looked defeated before we even stepped out and if it’s a psychological issue, it doesn’t bode well for a week on Wednesday, never mind the final

You must have been fucking miles behind And even at 2-0, we hardly touched the ball

Far too easy to play through us with Willock there

Please come back to Earth

Woeful. Shit scared of them again

Fucking shit start that’s been duly punished. That better wake us up

What did The Jam release in the 90s?

Suppose you could earmark Britpop as “British guitar bands in the 90s who took influence from and sounded like all the different British guitar bands of the 60s” If you wanted to keep this argument going

Probably not but they get lumped in anyway so I’m marking them as the best of this entirely manufactured and arbitrary era

Salah quiet all game but he’s probably won them it. Similar to up here where he had a brilliant 15 minutes and almost sunk us. Praying that he’s injured for the final, like

Supergrass were great and didn’t make a bad album.

Everton vs Liverpool. Constant fucking diving and whinging where a game of football occasionally breaks out

I’m a simple man and will therefore accept Salah getting injured. Doesn’t have to be a bad one, just a broken bone or something that will take around 6 weeks to heal

The best Blur album was the latest one. It’s the only one I’ve ever actually listened to front to back and thought was actually accomplished

What can I say? I’m a man of refined taste

I think I’ve got a table booked upstairs in the Strawberry for the final so I’m afraid any Saturday will be spent desperately trying to think of anything else. If anyone wants any furniture knocking up, send it my way. I’ll need the distraction

Dakwala is supposed to be excellent. Butakun is a ramen/Japanese gaff that I can recommend highly. We went to Hula, just next to Empress last week and we both really enjoyed it too. From the same people who have Twenty Twenty Pizza.

Their EPs with Leon Bridges are good too. Texas Sun and Texas Moon. And then you should get into Leon Bridges too, so to speak. He’s a fantastic vocalist and his albums are all strong soul albums, all with a different era of focus. 1st album sounds like late 60s, in the groove soul/RnB and he gets progressively more and more 70s as they go

Was Tindall this much of a wind-up at Bournemouth? You’d presume so but funny how it’s only been brought to light now he’s here

It tears me up inside but Gemmill is right, here. Running Fox is top tier

Aye, I’d agree with you on the faster ones being a step down. They should stick to creating an atmosphere as they do on the slower ones more often

I know, just being a knacker. I get the sense he hates us just as much as the mackems as well tbh

Someone like Cardiff or Preston at home please. Let Man City, Bournemouth, Villa and Fulham all play each other if possible

Class from Plymouth, despite the refs best intentions of getting Liverpool another half an hour. Big hitters going out this weekend

Thank fuck for that. Unreadable bollocks that actively made me read this place less
