@coinneachrooney.bsky.social okay so I've seen something I'd like to downvote for #AmbientAugust 😆 Definite rule violation. We need VAR intevention!

Sick of summer sun? Good news: we're going cold and ambient. Post an ambient track each day in August. Modular synths, lo-fi guitars, digital landscapes, or whatever feels right to you. There are rules, but you'll only find out what they are after breaking one. 😂 Use #AmbientAugust when you post.

#AmbientAugust circa '93 my roomate acquired a cassette full of the most amazing music we'd ever heard... with no artist or track names on it at all. Took a while but tracked them all down: Higher Intelligence Agency, Banco de Gaia, Original Rockers, A Positive LIfe, Autechre, and this Aphex Twin.

Can't be the first to say this, but (and yay UEFA - brilliant) this works equally well if you swap out "football" for maybe "water" or "a stable climate". Look at me being the revolutionary socialist. "No one has the moral authority to sell what they merely hold in trust for the next generation."

The moment external investors acquire ownership interests in FIFA competitions, football changes forever. Commercial return becomes a permanent obligation. Investor expectations become a daily pressure. From that moment onwards, every decision on the international calendar, every decision on competition formats and every decision shaping the future of football is no longer driven by what best serves the game, but by what best serves shareholders. This model has no place in world football. Football's future cannot be dictated by the expectations of those whose first duty is to maximise financial return. Nor can the interests of national associations, leagues, clubs, players and supporters become subordinate to investor returns. Football cannot mortgage its future for financial gain. Europe's position is clear. We will never lend this model our legitimacy. No one has the moral authority to sell what they merely hold in trust for the next generation.
