I don't know what's going on most of the time, but I have the required medical clearance to support Leeds United, and it also turns out I'm a bit autistic which explains a lot. I don't like racism. #lufc

One solution to having to think of ideas to keep tweaking a home shirt that's basically just white is to not release a new one every year, alternate new home v new away - admittedly this would cut merch revenue by about £12m but that's manageable. #lufc

It's a good job I'm not leading transfer negotiations at #lufc, I'd be so anxious I'd have given in to Man City, Southampton etc. just to get the Trafford, Charles etc. signatures. We'd be Peter-Ridsdaled to fuck if I were in charge of the cheque book.

Andy Burnham is now getting it in the neck for spending money setting up Number 10 North in the approximate geographical centre of the UK. Other countries seem to manage to have government beyond the capital, it's frustrating how we just assume it's a pricey white elephant.

I don't have any issue with someone in 2016 voting for Trump because they were sick of the Washington elite and wanted to drain the swamp, avoid unnecessary wars in the Middle East and stop corruption. What I don't get is why any of those people would still support him now.

The criticism of Burnham for saying "the north" when he means the middle of the UK misses the point. "The north" is the unofficial collective name for a neglected region of England that has important cultural resonance for those of us from there, let us at least have that, we don't get much else

Chelsea are going to have to sell a few more women's teams to justify their transfer incomings or they'll face the wrath of the FA and be forced to pay a paltry fine.

I don't know about you, but this isn't my first rodeo, and I can spot the spin the moment's it's uttered - trying to get me to think that Burnham is "continuity Starmer" before the guy's even taken his coat off isn't going to wash. I've seen this trick before.

For the first time they've discovered an atmosphere on a rocky planet in the habitable zone of another star and it's called LHS 1140b - what sort of crappy name in that!? The people who live there lack imagination.

Rodri and Morata were banned for one match for singing “Gibraltar is Spain” when they won the Euros. I guess that was UEFA not FIFA, but I wonder how they will deal with the Argentinian players who held the Malvinas banner on the pitch - I'm sure with the utmost integrity as always.

I wonder if Spain's ex-Prime Minister, the corrupt Mariano Rajoy, refusing to lower himself to answer for his racist article, is the right angle to take just before a game - his words will do even more to motivate a very strong France team.

So in the end it looks like corrupt grifter Nigel Farage lasted about ten minutes once the spotlight of scrutiny turned in his direction. Oh well, he'll probably be able to get a job with Fifa.
