Do they think playgrounds don’t exist anymore? Do they just not go outside at all?

Maybe, certainly that sort of player.

Having watched them at Juventus, we will beat them at home. More worried about them getting a 2nd late on than caring if we equalise.

A game that reinforces we need new defenders. The two we have signed for the future are both badly injured, our best peak age one is leaving on a free, and our captain looks increasingly like the veteran he is. Negligence if we don’t sign a quality 24 year old this summer.

6 of the best 8 performing sides in the same half of the draw.

love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region

..2300 minutes in his age 18 season in 2011-12. 1600 in the Championship on loan and the rest for Spurs.

Why would they? Ok, because you seem bad at maths, I will do the maths for you. 25 x 60 (starts) = 1500. 25 x 30 (sub) = 750. 2250 mins. Very easy for that to be anywhere between 2000 and 2500. Now on to the 2nd part. Harry Kane, arguably the best English footballer of the last 20 years, played..

Seeing any MAGA spokesman as intelligent raises alarm bells irrespective of the rest of it.

What maths? I haven’t done any. If you have inferred length of time from starts and sub appearances, that’s your maths not adding up, not mine. Every player is different. You can’t say β€˜this worked with X so it will work with Y’ or vice versa. As a general rule tho, the best players, play.

08.03.2026 08:18 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Yes, 25 starts, 25 sub appearances. Around 2000 minutes. I can’t see how that wouldn’t have been better than playing less than 300 for us. We are getting the balance wrong between development and protection IMO.

Nyoni getting 5% of minutes feels like a big waste. He could have been on loan in L1 or the Championship, playing 50 games and getting a ton of great experience. Of course there would be an injury risk, but what has he learned sitting on the bench?

They are mad that not enough people are motivated by hatred toward Muslims so they choose to minimise or outright ignore them until they can’t, by which point they try to argue that said people shouldn’t be allowed to vote

It’s fairly clear that they see this as a war against Islam and Muslims (hence the Gorton and Denton comment). Right wing politics in the UK is almost entirely driven by anti Muslim hatred and it’s clear their support of this war comes from that

Peter Mandelson released from bail conditions Police have decided former minister is not a flight risk, but he remains under investigation

A reminder that there are young people in the UK who have been held in prison for up to two years without conviction for allegedly dismantling weapons of genocide.

The government has been proven wrong on all accusations against them so far.

Dear Shabana,
I notice today that you referred to me in your speech on immigration at the IPPR think tank.
You said: β€œA party leader should not be on the beaches of France encouraging people to
make a perilous crossing on small boats.”
I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised especially after the hateful Labour campaign in Gorton
and Denton, but this is just the latest in a string of lies peddled by a discredited Government
who intentionally fan the flames of racism and division.
When I went to Calais, I was not there to encourage people to travel to the UK. I was there
to see at first hand the suffering your Government and successive Governments have done
in demonising migrants in a pathetic bid to pander to the base instincts of Reform and the
flawed strategy of Morgan McSweeney.
As you will know, if you even bothered to research my visit instead of taking Reform talking
points, I was there to witness the brutality of families living in tents in freezing temperatures. I
filled water tanks and picked up litter.
What that visit did do is confirm my belief that if we are to smash the boat gangs and stop
the boats, we need to offer safer and managed routes for migrants to come to this country.
Showing compassion as a politician is not a crime. In fact, we need to see much more of it.
It reminded me of a young MP who in October 2015 spent three days in Lesbos helping
migrants fleeing war-torn Syria. She posted videos on X, talked about handing out water and
croissants to refugees and food parcels.
When she returned to the UK, she wrote a very moving piece in the New Statesman. She
said β€œwe have to work with our European partners and create new, safe, and legal routes for
refugees to get to Europe. We cannot abandon them to their fate, left as prey for smugglers
whilst risking death on the seas.”
She said β€œmaybe we can make ourselves feel better by saying no-one is making them get on
the boats. And again, the Home Secretary is not entirely wrong when …

Dear Shabana,

Let's clear some things up around migration and remember we're talking about people's lives.

Don’t ever tell me this version of Labour are a progressive or left leaning party. They are a far right party and anyone who still supports them needs to face up to that.

Telling myself this terrible season is going to end in the most obvious terrible way, out of self preservation (and sadly, likelihood).

But all the politicians told us this never happens and it was just anti-semitism against Maccabi fans. Don’t tell me they were liars!

Really quite something that Farage spent 4 days whining and making wild unfounded accusations of election fraud, then completely skips the commons debate on the elections bill.

It’ll go higher.

When Labour collapse in Wales, Scotland and the local elections, which they will, more people will see them as a dead party.

Whoever replaces Starmer when that happens this summer, will have a hell of a job to turn it around.
