I lose it a bit when I try figure out what the Gardaí are telling us with their Bank Holiday operation stats. Yes, we know people are driving recklessly, instead of patting yourselves on the back for a few days enforcement, you've just broadcast how little is being done the rest of the time

Mike McKillen@mikemckillen.bsky.social · 11h ago

Does this level of law breaking by drivers not suggest that we need Garda operations such as this one on a 24/7 basis & not just at bank holidays? "Between the period of Thursday 30 July – Tuesday 4 August 2026, a total of 169 people were arrested for driving under the influence of an intoxicant,

Galway coming up with bold strategies to compete with Dublin's gay Spar:

She WILL be going to gay baby supermax

this should’ve been the beginning of the end for infantino. the fifa/eafc game is the most popular sports franchise in the world, for a “nonprofit” whose mission statement is to ‘globalize and popularize’ football, getting $150m for the game to literally be called ‘FIFA’ is the deal of the century.

Treblig 🇺🇦@camtreblig.bsky.social · 3d ago

An underrated cause of Infantino’s problems is him playing silly buggers with EA Sports: FIFA got $150m a year just to let EA use the name on a game. Literally free money. But Gianni got greedy and wanted more, EA called his bluff and walked away. Since then he’s been trying to make up the shortfall

Caped Crusader season 2 was a lot of fun. Please make a season 3 in a more promptly fashion!

lmao

Death to beginning a story in medias res! aftermath.site/death-to-begin...

How’s your Friday going?

Very brave of Uefa to show Ireland that it is actually good to boycott football matches.

Hard to take stock when new twists are flying in every hour but football could well be witnessing the real-time defenestration of a FIFA president who less than a fortnight ago thought himself invincible and the mastermind behind "the best show in the world". Delicious hubris

FIFA losing UEFA is funny but predictable. Infantino losing CONCACAF is absolutely hilarious and I'm delighted

don't want to do a rude quote tweet so i'll just say it here: i am never, under any circumstances, "wondering how graham linehan is doing"

What's so remarkable about this statement to me is that is so clearly and thoroughly outlines the obvious problems many industries suffer through because of private equity. UEFA have taken a firm stance against it. Where is everyone else?

Nathan Kalman-Lamb@nkalamb.bsky.social · 6d ago

The full statement from UEFA is remarkable. Members vow not to participate in FIFA competitions unless the entire proposal is scrapped and assurances are made it is gone for good.

Fucking hell as if receiving automated rejection letters for jobs wasn't bad enough.

The Odyssey was pretty good imo

Ludwig Goransson may be a multiple time Oscar winner, but Greendale Is Where I Belong is the one track of his that will just always melt my heart

There something so funny about watching a movie with a giant cyclops in it and knowing that the dumbest people in the world are calling it historically inaccurate because it’s “woke”

I don’t know how to convince anyone of this, but the hundreds or thousands of words many publications run below the headline aren’t decorative. Often they contain nuance that doesn’t fit into ten words.

Lot of erasure of the horrible Dutch 2010 team on the TL. Let's not forget how awful and villainous they were too

World Cup was too long. I'm glad it's over. Please do not use this format again

FIFA need to take blame for this atrocious final as well. Teams having to play an extra game is a huge toll to take after such a long season

I for one am glad England were sacrificed so we could get a 2010 quality World Cup final

Merino pretty clearly stands on Otamendi’s foot I am confused by the outrage

It doesn't speak well for where we are atm that even otherwise rational people are seeing a bad referee call and jumping straight to conspiracy-brained "it must be corruption" thinking

Don't care what anyone says about Micah Richards, he is just a professional shill and I don't want to see him as a pundit

Scott Bryan@scottygb.bsky.social · 2w ago

Wayne Rooney speaks for everyone.

RTE should show the second half of England/Argentina instead the way this is going

This absolutely feels like Netherlands/Brazil where Brazil were embarrassed to be there and the Dutch were delighted to beat them up

Saka starting the loser's bowl after playing 0 minutes against Argentina is utterly baffling. As is Mainoo's non-incision in the squad. Tuchel continues to go down in my estimation

Easily the Bourne Legacy (2012)
