Some people will understandably call this a success.

I call it a start.

I thought they'd be a more even split, (almost all "stick")

think I'm still "stick" for reasons such as better players=progression

But I also feel we've left quite a few points left on the pitch

Which is basically where I was last summer.

Others teams a caution to be careful what you wish for

Maybe a bit early, but assuming we stay up.

In the summer, Farke, stick or twist?

Stability and better players (hopefully) or
Farke's run the distance and is holding us back

"There is a bitter irony that today, on International Women's Day, these few men claiming to 'protect women' behaved like this towards parliament's newest female MP"

The Tories failure to coherently deliver HS2 has wasted billions

Yes infrastructure COSTS billions
But
Incoherent delivery WASTES billions

We, as a country need to learn the first is good, the second is very bad

Actually, thinking about it. They should do a podcast in the style of the other ones.

@allstatsarentwe.bsky.social do a match ball or propaganda
@thesquareball.net do an in depth tactical and stats based breakdown including full game rewatch

P s. Thanks to you and @allstatsarentwe.bsky.social for the great content

Along with @thesquareball.net my weekly #lufc content. They make a good counterpoint to each other.

You should do a joint podcast at some point😀

Head says we should be fine.
Heart says it won't be straightforward.

Have a bit of a worry we might find some more teams looking to stodge things up, when we have to break down low blocks and fractured games

Sort that problem and we'll be right.
We should be right anyway. Though.

Or punchline:

Not so good, he's still trying to assemble his cabinet

Agree with the need for an electoral commission to look at the voting system
it's not because of the breakdown of a two part system

It's about fairness
transparency
not being stuck in the dark ages
not disenfranchising millions because of where they live
Better politics
Representation

Croydon's low-traffic neighbourhoods unlawful, High Court rules The High Court finds Croydon Council unlawfully implemented Low Traffic Neighbourhoods (LTNs).

The state of this.

If you get fined for disobeying traffic signs. That's your own fault

While we're hooked on oil & gas we're vulnerable to price shocks caused by a rogue US president.

It doesn't have to be like this.

Invest in renewables, insulate our homes, cut the cost of living.

A small girl wearing a rabbit costume and blue coat carries a book as she walks to school. Her mother (head out of shot) wheels her baby brother along in a pushchair. The baby says "Peter Rabbit may be the 'Hero' of the story, but surely the obedient, widowed Mrs Rabbit is a more effective symbol of the oppression inherent within Mister McGregor's regime" The girls looks furious and snaps "Mum!! He's critiquing my world book day costume from a marxist perspective again!"

'Active travel' in Liverpool City Region 'saves NHS millions' People walking, wheeling and cycling in the Liverpool City Region saves the NHS an estimated £53.8m a year.

Active travel saves the NHS at least £54 million a year just in Liverpool alone.
Other regions especially the north east need to sit up, take note and ramp up their efforts.

OK, the Gorton and Denton by-election, I have some thoughts!

Let's take a look at some of the FACTS and burst a few of the more ridiculous takes doing the rounds

But first up, can we acknowledge just what bad losers Reform are?!🤣

Right, let's get started...

Didn't watch much #arsche as it seemed a bit of a joyless endeavour

Playing for fouls & corners, all goals from set pieces. Whinging, diving

Chelsea goal with about 10 -15 players within a few square meters, like old schoolground games

It may've got better when I wasn't watching. Doubt it

As a Muslim-Aussie Leeds United supporter all my life following football, i am very hurt and disappointed by yesterday's events at Elland Rd v City.
I believe the majority of #LUFC fans are decent folks and i will always love the club and support it. Just feeling really despondant atm #MOT #ALAW

So third time out canvasing for #greenparty #votegreen in hanwell Broadway

This time I needed to step up and have some conversations myself (was taking a back seat previously)

Main concerns were around the

Text explaining how there isn’t a war on cars, with all the benefits of reallocating street space to move a lot more people with a lot less space and other consequences, including life and death, pollution/emissions, public and personal costs, etc. Providing more choices works better for everyone, including drivers. And more transportation choices support the economic competitiveness of cities, as smart cities know.

I’m not a fan of politicians trying to make people angry for votes by claiming there actually IS a “war on cars” (there isn’t — if anything there’s been a war on every OTHER way of getting around since the 1960s).

A politician just made the claim on LinkedIn. Here’s the reply I posted. #UrbanTruth

I do like bylines' journalism and writing

"Here comes the Anton Stach,
A box to box Leeds player"

Or something like that
