Hahaha, Porro just gave up for the 5th. Absolutely rotten team

Spurs ship four / five / eleven as Spaniards sink Tudor... something about an armada... I'll work on it

After all, Bodø managed to win there not long ago

But Spurs are hilariously bad

Also, there has to be some good pun about Spaniards and dethroning Tudors in there somewhere

Appreciate there's a lot of hindsight bias here but... throwing a cold, inexperienced young 'keeper in for this 3rd game this season and 1st since Oct, in a Champions League knockout game... away... at Atléti... with a shite defence... feels like an awful lot of the blame for that lies with Tudor

Listening on the radio and still feeling sorry for kinsky, to be fair

It's a very good rule. It let's the game play out, maintains momentum and maximises the use VAR to get it right

It also ends up showing how good the linos are and how many incredibly tight calls they get spot on

There's no real downside to it either. Just stop moaning

Also lol at spurs

I absolutely despise pundits who bemoan the "late offside flags" to allow the game to play out

Just heard it from Waddle on Radio 5, almost immediately followed by "oh it's tight, it's very tight" and Ian Dennis suggesting it would've been onside in a review

But Waddle will still moan next time

Points get halved going into the Championship group (and rounded down I'm 99% sure) so Austria will have 3 points separating the top 6 with 10 to play

Trump accuses Starmer of seeking to 'join wars after we've already won' The remarks come after a public back-and-forth between Trump and Sir Keir Starmer over UK involvement the US's joint offensive with Israel against Iran.

Struggling to imagine anything better for Starmer's PR than pissing off Trump

Fuxache, can we just get a manager in already?

This is an absolute shambles and you can't really look past the senior hierarchy for where the blame lies #StandFree

No matter how the bar, these cunts never fail to fall embarrassingly short

Hegseth responds to report Russia shared intel with Iran YouTube video by 60 Minutes

"the only ones that need to be worried right now are Iranians that think they're going to live"

These people are trained in how to speak to the media and they're still this fucking stupid

Some Serie A clubs were linked with him recently - maybe even Inter. Clearly needs a move

100%. He just feels like a player in desperate need of a move - confidence completely shot at Spurs

31 years yesterday since Man Utd 9 - 0 Ipswich and it's never been bettered since

It might seem fanciful to say it but a Spurs implosion is entirely plausible (if not here already)

Hahahahahahahahahahaha, that third Palace goal is absolutely fucking hilarious

I cannot believe how bad that defending / goalkeeping is

if the player is making an attempt to play the ball then yes - booking only and no double jeopardy

That doesn't apply if the player makes no attempt to play the ball

Think that's just about the most "ooft, check the swazz on that" goal I've seen in a while from Osula

Wtaf is that from Chelsea? When did this sort of playground man baby shite become normal behaviour and not just American president guff?

Let's hope so.

At this point you just have to hope that US voters aren't impressed with the man baby mobster shtick just because they're on the strongest side

Hopefully Trump's misjudged the effect this will have on the midterms. I have no idea. 77 million of them voted for the cunt

Normalised giving absolute fuckwits any power whatsoever to basically say "war crimes? Whatevs"

I'll stick over here "clutching my pearls" thinking that the Rule of Law is more important than Might is Right

Barely over a month ago

Absolutely. I'm very much an analytical person. Done loads of those personality tests with various jobs and I'm about as blue as blue can be

I'm 100% data > vibes with everything - work, real life, real football, video games. It's why I'd be so fun at parties if I ever went to any

Nagasaki bomb survivor Alistair Urquhart dies aged 97 A former prisoner of war who credited the Nagasaki atomic bomb with saving his life has died at the age of 97.

If you want a short summary of Alistair Urquhart's incredible ordeal - from Singapore, to Hellfire Pass, to the Burmese railway, to Singapore docks, to hell ships, to being torpedoed and 5 days adrift on a raft and then to Nagasaki as Fat Man was dropped. Incredible.

I don't think I've ever found a book so viscerally horrifying

Perhaps because he was from Aberdeen, and I know the exact locations he described in the early chapters, made it more real. Perhaps because it is so wonderfully written.

Incredible book.

7 - The Forgotten Highlander, Alistair Urquhart (read by David Rintoul)

5/5

This might be the best non-fiction book I've ever read. Certainly top 5.

Absolutely brutal, utterly harrowing

Replaced by the old firm game today. Gutted.

For comparison, #fm24 NEVER dropped <75k until #fm26 was released

Despite being in the "cycle" for 2 years instead of 1.

And players haven't really gone back

I've tried going back but the experience of #fm26 seems to have sapped my energy for the whole genre

Just splendid work from SI
