@Howmanheyman @Alex Team sheets for Matthews testimonial. Best was only 19 at this point but it’s certainly contains some of the greatest European players of the era and in Eusebio, Di Stefano, Puskas and Yashin (possibly Gento too?) contenders for an all time world top 20. The likes of Pele are missing but that’s obviously travel related 👍

I was round Darren’s playing cards about 6 months after him and Howe turned up…. Dawn came in with the cleaner (mortal drunk ) she texted someone she alleged to be Tindle and we wished each other well ☺️

So Darren’s wife Dawn is the besty of the girl who used to clean for Tindle so am taking this as gospel 😆 Spencer is known as “Victor” as in “Meldrew” because he’s a miserable gooner cunt 😀

Yeah. He got sacked for shouting his mouth off about player ownership and agents

He’s done a lot more good than bad for England. Fuck knows what the average England fan thinks they’re entitled to given the record of the previous half dozen…

Here’s your next VP folks, he’s a bit like Sauron from lord of the rings which is more than a bit ironic… https://sfstandard.com/opinion/2024/07/15/with-jd-vance-as-vp-peter-thiel-would-finally-have-trump-right-where-he-wants-him/

Aye It’s fucking repulsive regardless of motivation

Yes. The biggest factor in the long history of political violence in the US is (surprise surprise) easy access to firearms

Could’ve been worse tbh

Never forget…

Didn’t have this duo on tonight’s bingo card tbh

That cunt Piers Morgan went there nearly 30 years ago

Good ebening 😆

He used to wear a waistcoat 🤷🏻‍♂️ There’s no need to suppose that the Dear Leader won’t up his sartorial game again ☺️

Many have achieved middle income on here, but there’s not many who were brought up middle class Also this is a doozy from Ronay 😆

Yeah it’s like what @Gemmill said earlier, Eddie is now on his own and has to produce or knives will be out from all quarters.

I thought it was just down to the AS/MG and Jamie Reuben?… and it was 2-1 in favour of Emery so he was offered the job and accepted for half a day?….

I think the trouble with the English football media is that they see themselves in Southgate; white. middle aged, middle class, liberal attitude, careerist. It’s a mirror. And he’s done pretty well. So they’re always going to back him. However @Dazzler hit the nail on the head, for large periods of game time in this tournament they’ve been fuckin boring…

Pougatch calls out the FM generation and spreadsheet dudes

It occurred to me that with AS & MG exiting the stage it leaves Eddie Howe ‘s position a lot more vulnerable than it has been. They appointed Howe, but now Howe reports ultimately to Eales and who in turn reports to “his excellency”….say If we spend as much as we can this summer and we’re 13th at the beginning of December we could see a change a lot more quickly than if AS & MG were there as a buffer..

Hang on I’ve just got to try to sell one of my 50 something kidneys to afford the flight 😆

I see they’re touring Oz with Mark Arm… I expect you’re going?…

Well done England 😆 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 I had to work tonight then drive nearly two hours home 🥱so a bit knackered but just seen Watkins goal what a fuckin player man. His performance at Villa Park the season before last was the best I’ve seen from a striker since Ageuro used to regularly bum us to death . Lots of people phoning 5 live still not happy with Southgate and Kane though
