I remember Barcelona linking themselves to half our squad during the sanctions when they themselves didn’t have a pot to piss in or a window to through it out of. Fuck them. Despite my reservations about team and regime, that was delightful

In a rare moment where X added a useful feature, we now have our suspicions confirmed about this piece of work.
Account started January 2023, right about when fans got increasingly angry at Clearlake public utterances and contract nonsense with Mount et al - so slurred certain fans and Mount et al

“Bazball” in “not working against a serious Test team” again is it?
At least Damon Heta can’t rub it in at the darts due to his form being as good as Zak Crawley’s right now

I have kept away from the news recently but just saw the orange yoke make MBS look statesmanlike by comparison. Yeah, the Saudi MBS.
Also, that make up is doing him no favours. Under camera lights he looks like his face needs ironing

Littler vs Humphries as the ‘darts final’ is a pleasure I intend never to take for granted. Both magnificent players and I hope they both stick around long enough to make a lot of archive footage

I’m nearly in fucking tears in a pub in Harrow. A bloke at bar had his phone go off for score alert at 3-2 whilst our stream was a minute behind and I assumed he was taking the piss. Best spoiler ever

I find the state of that pint even more distressing than Jackboots Jenrick’s politics, racism, or attempts to see how much Ozempic it is possible for a human being to take.

Jesus Christ there's a possibility half the players drawn will have left the club by the time they've finished. Good luck....

For years mum said me & her walked past filming an episode of The Bill when I was little. I’ve found it, from the days before filming moved south of the river. The alley Tosh and Dashwood use was where market carts stored overnight. I attempted to play football with dad there

The series was available on streaming platforms last time I checked (U on Sky Q for me) and is an amazing piece of work. Even I got there over 50 years after it was made
