ODC attendance on the rise across the country, Dumbdred falling fast. Could it be that people actually prefer to go to games where they feel they have a connection to the teams and players on the field?

Today was interesting. Had to threaten to go to my union rep unless another teams Management got a grip on one of their team members, who not only emailed me, but when told to email my line manager doubled down and told me to just action the request later.

FFS! Email from the director to all teams and individuals on Friday "please do not email Stu next week, he's snowed under. Email his line manager and they will decide on importance and delegate when required ". Want to know how many emails I got this morning?

An absolute see you next Tuesday died today. As long as no foul play is in involved, its good when bad people die, preferably the younger the better, and I'm glad he's dead. He deserved it much earlier. The pearl clutching about speaking ill of the dead can join him in hell. Good riddance

Under normal circumstances I'd laugh like a drain at the Torys being beaten into 5th place. But these aren't normal circumstances. The fact they were beaten by a far right and an extreme right party is exceptionally worrying.

A company buying up millions of books with the express purpose of destroying them is not the equivalent of buying a library. The argument that they can afford it so it’s fine is the most capitalism-poisoned debating position.

I can't wait to be back. And this time, I own it (well, a piece of it). #FootballIsBack. What a great test to go up against last seasons runners up. This season is going to be a lot of fun!

Growing up, I would watch football on TV or listen on the radio, from the safety of my own home, after I was racially abused on the terraces and my brothers were chased away from a different stadium by National Front extremists.

Racist and homophobic abuse on the rise in English football as new figures released

Reports of abuse soared last season, with Kick It Out claiming discrimination is ‘deeply embedded’ in English football

I've been at this long enough to know that everyone in recruitment are twats, but the last 3 working days have been epic. My manager has stepped in and 2 of them are now essentially banned from emailing me.

Imagine hating Stevie Wonder, Morrissey has always been an absolute tool. It baffles me how so many people will forgive his bullshit and support him.

Marcus 🏳️‍🌈🇧🇧@marcusjdl.bsky.social · 2w ago

My beef with Morrissey runs all the way back to 1986 when he said this about Black artists. Nineteen Eighty Six, while the Smiths were still active. It’s not a “later phenomenon” don’t try and lie to me www.standard.co.uk/culture/musi...

1986 — "Reggae, for example, is to me the most racist music in the entire world. It's an absolute total glorification of black supremacy... I don't have very cast iron opinions on black music other than black modern music which I detest. I detest Stevie Wonder. I think Diana Ross is awful. I hate all those records in the Top 40 - Janet Jackson, Whitney Houston. I think they're vile in the extreme... Obviously to get on Top Of The Pops these days, one has to be, by law, black," he told Melody Maker.
