They’re still going. Can you imagine the response, if the Guardian or the Independent had flown someone out to interview Slobodan Milosevic or Saddam Hussein, and promoted their denunciations of the government as urgent, pressing news content?

the potential sweet, sweet taste of Amol being the first to be eliminated, I CRAVE IT. #CelebrityTraitors

Yesterday in the supermarket they were selling advent calendar’s. Advent calendars! In September. I was ready to lead a revolution.
Ronaldo going out crying after being benched at 41 all while sporting bleached tips (at 41!) is truly too much for me to bear when it comes to joy
I hate to sound bitter but can you imagine how much we would have saved if the Tories hadn't banned onshore wind in England and actually utilised the low interest environment to do some infrastructure spending

We’re gonna rock down to The inland revenue They’re winding up Man City
Don't worry, it's not as if we've allowed City Group to own (or operate) 9 other football clubs worldwide. I'm sure they only cheated at City and all of those other 9 clubs are absolutely untainted and operated totally fairly.
You can all move Jürgen Klopp to number 2 in the lists of the Premier League's greatest managers now. Ta.
City away at Liverpool when we come back is levels of Barclays I'm not sure we've seen before.
City’s statement is pure entitlement that can’t begin to fathom that they can’t continue to do whatever they like. Like doesn’t everyone understand how many lawyers they could hire?!
The whole league owes Steven Gerrard an apology. #citycheats
That Premier League statement is damning. Full expulsion looks the only way to clear the decks. Even a points deduction that ends in relegation will not be enough.
Neil Atkinson@knoxharrington.bsky.social · 2w agoVery, very difficult if things are and remain as reported for this not to be the start of a chain of events that lead to expulsion. The scale of the breach of good faith alone makes it hard to see another outcome. Still a lot more process though am sure.
Manchester City supporters (and the people of Manchester) should be furious. Because the first people who have had the piss taken out of them is them. Even now the City statement takes the piss. You are meant to back this pile of bullshit, it says. You are meant to back it unquestionably.
"They are a financially doped club. "They have enhancement of performances through financial resources which are unlimited. For me, it's a kind of doping because it's not in any way linked to their resources." Arsene Wenger re: Chelsea in 2005. Same shit, different club.
Commentators reading the Premier League ruling on Manchester City.
The rest of the Premier League seeing Set Pieces FC get battered by Brighton.

Subsequent British governments seem to be determined to destroy Britain's lingering international cultural capital. I can only assume the rich hate the idea of ordinary folk succeeding in the arts and will happily burn down the whole industry rather than give ground.
Dan Davies@dsquareddigest.bsky.social · 4w agoAs I keep pointing out, does no one understand Ricardian comparative advantage anymore. FACT: China produces over 1 million engineering graduates per year FACT: To date, China has not produced a single internationally marketable game show format Where does it look like our advantage lies?
Chelsea should absolutely loose that title. But I don’t think you can reward it to second place. Instead the premier league deserves the black mark on its record of no winner that year.
James Dart@jamesdart.bsky.social · 4w agoMauricio Pochettino says Chelsea should be stripped of their 2016-17 Premier League title for financial rule breaches and retrospectively awarded to Tottenham. 'They were punished, they admitted it? So that’s it. The title should be for the team that was second'
Meet the new season, same as the old season.
Dale Johnson@dalejohnsonbbc.bsky.social · 4w agoNottingham Forest should not have been awarded a penalty at Liverpool for Alisson's challenge on Neco Williams, the KMI Panel has said. But the KMI Panel also added that it did not reach the threshold for the VAR to overturn the on-field decision. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...
