Got 2 standing tickets for The Coral at the Albert Hall in Manchester tomorrow night. A school-boy error of getting my dates wrong means we can't make it now - so they're going to waste. Any takers?
What a line this is on the Beeb website. Someone should let Carrick know. “Oh, you watch a few games do you, you should have said!”
Can’t put my finger on why - but James Maddison winds me up. Seems to carry himself like someone who thinks he’s one of the greats.
Chris Sutton has predicted we win 5-0 today on his BBC website prediction thing. The mad bastard.
I swear Owen Hargreaves uses a different vowel every time he says ‘Cole Palmer’ Cool Parma Cohl Pwarma Cahl Pooma
Leeds fans are funny. They’ll pretend to be above this excruciating commercial stuff but then twerk relentlessly for it. And it’s exactly what the Dynamic Pricing mafia want. Plumbers Adam & Rich buying Aperol Spritzes for Big Porn Guy on YouTube & wondering why they can ever a single home ticket.
Got an agency job working for the Highways Agency in my teens. Thought I’d be cutting about the M6 in the back of one of their vans. Cushy number. Turned up at their depot at 6am and was presented with a bucket, sponge, and a mountain of traffic cones to clean. Lasted 2 days.
Better Things Are Possible@internethippo.bsky.social · last wk.In honor of the fired lady tell me about your shortest job tenure. I worked at a candy store for less than 2 weeks when I was like 16
Looks like the Lion Tavern is getting a long overdue lick of paint. #pubwatch
Double-dropped a Covid and Flu jab earlier and the comedown has hit me hard. Feel terrible here lads.
I see West Ham scored 6 and Piroe played 90 but didn’t score. Slightly concerned we get him back next summer. Intrigued to know what the trigger is for the sale to complete. #LUFC
Two episodes into Time. Its obviously very good. Powerful stuff, well acted, etc. But.. The bit in the second ep where they're showing the mum around the wing and his cell, then the memorial service in the prison chapel. All feels a bit 'unlikely' for a programme about the reality of life inside.
Had a mate who hated the taste of beer when we started drinking in our teens (suppose we all did!). He loved an alcopop - was roundly mocked for it - so got back on the beers, and he pulled this face for every sip of beer he had for about the next 10 years.

Goal of the Month on MOTD there. Long-range bangers are back baby.
Has Rooney been using a Time Machine as well as the jabs?!
I'm largely in the 'not that arsed' camp on all this, but who amongst us wouldn't absolutely love the fume that would come from someone like Cherki or Enzo giving it the big 'fingers to the lips' celebration to the Kop after putting them 3-0 up.
Not sure I’m prepared for the full-on festival of integrity later from the koppites.
Real shame Tanaka got a yellow. Suspect Farke will hook him before long. Strange half from Okafor. Looked a threat but almost every pass or cross seemed to go astray. Expect Bruno on in 2nd for them. Could be problematic. #LUFC
Some Junior Football to watch this morning. Big Danny Farke’s Super Whites on the TV at lunch. Dropping Mrs F off in Chester after that. The key to the rest of my day is if I’m expected to provide the taxi home later therefore putting an end to my plan for a takeaway and #cans.
Funny. Fascinating. Terrifying.
Joel Morris@gralefrit.bsky.social · 2w agoThis is one of the most terrifying interviews I’ve ever seen. The slow reveal of the mental landscape at work here. If you don’t end up thinking we should stop these people with as much force as we can muster, I’d be very surprised. youtu.be/lnLDjXy2kRA?...
