Rename him Gianni Bastonelungo and flog him to the Saudis for £100m

When you talk about republicans playing dirty don't forget they refused to confirm Obama's last nominee to the Supreme Court, Merrick Garland, because they said it wasn't appropriate in an election year and then did a full 180 in appointing Ginsberg's replacement just months before the 2020 election.

Was flicking through YouTube the other day and the 10 minute highlight of the 8-0 popped up. Watching this then lead to YouTube offering me another 10 highlights of our big scoring games over the last 2 years. Mouth watering stuff to get you ready for the big kick off. One of my favourite moments

If Harris beats Trump this time around, I don't really know what becomes of the Republican Party. Trump can't run again cos he'll be either 82 or dead by the time the next one comes around, and the party isn't a political party anymore, it's a personality death cult set up entirely to worship one man. I mean I couldn't give a fuck what happens to them, I just hope she wins so we can find out.

100% of Yorkshiremen went for this option.

Aye, surname was Ciggi

This mackem must be confident they avoid relegation 😃 "What's the point in going to Ipswich. They'll be back down here after next season."

'Right Sandro, it's dive training this morning'

Fuck. I missed that bit!

I don't think it's a case of anyone being really surprised at a fee going the other way, however if it is £20m as indicated in the link then anderson went for £15m. bit shit really when you consider the mackems have apparently rejected an £18m for some shite championship standard player. anyway, howe was very obviously extremely pissed off at losing anderson and I don't blame him. in fact, if these saudi fuckers don't get their hands in their pockets by tomorrow I reckon eddie needs to have a bit of a 'not like it says in the brochure' moment and flounce off. that'll teach the cunts.

I will never understand how someone so successful can still be such a pathetic, snivelling loser. He's the type of fucking nerd that gets angry and punches himself in the head repeatedly while squealing. Take away his wealth and he shoots a school up. Plus his daughter would kick the fucking shit out of him.

He munches foofi, does a poopi, he hates fucking Sunderland.

Train strikes, nothing changes

MUFFDIVING amirite Sandro? HIGH CINCO AMIGO!

I expect a lot more of this shit to come out of Trump's mouth. Genuinely do not know why any woman would vote for him.

Nothing to stop a president increasing the number of judges, current set up is 6-3 to Republicans, of 6 republicans, 4 are Maga nutjobs. It's the perfect illustration of why the judiciary should be separate from political interest.

He's Italian - diving is genetic.

Marrows in mourning.

I dunno, Vance seems pretty charismatic

The word potentially is doing a lot of heavy lifting there like. Minteh never played for us. So losing him doesn’t make the squad worse, Anderson was a back up at best and we have Tonali back.

Ipswich to make £18m offer for Sunderland star – with Spurs set to benefit Surely not only 18m, with 40% going to Spurs. Just 10.8m?

he'll be missed - a great servant, but he's getting on and we have a superb replacement. trips helped kickstart the revolution and deserves massive respect from us - he's been one of the greatest leaders i can remember seeing at newcastle. as important for this transformation of newcastle as killer kilcline was at the start of keegan's reign

That’s the Appleby horse fair

Andrew has demanded £100k to make it happen. We’ve raised £98k so far so if you want to PayPal me the remainder it’ll be all sorted.

we think our VAR is bad, these fuckers are off the map!

Aye, but it’s in Blyth.

I tend to read in bed so earphones aren't really comfortable and I end up falling asleep taking fuck all in and wake up with someone talking to me. I prefer to read until the words start moving around then it's kindle down and I'm out like a light.

Opening ceremony on Friday but the football and rugby start today. Currently watching Uzbekistan-Spain which is proving to be surprisingly entertaining.

I’d go, personally. Would you still go if it was a cold? If the answer is yes then I’d treat it the same. 90% of the people you’d kill off voted reform anyway so fuck them. I’ve had what I presume was Covid in the last week which has now devolved into what I think is a chest infection. I was fine with the maybe Rona but way worse now. I’m writing this from the office because fuck these people and their underlying health problems - get on your holidays.

I agree but it's not just Trump - ever since Reagan embraced the evangelical vote it's been pretty clear their long term plan has been to control the supreme Court and ban abortion and other rights but the dems rule following has been naive. At the very least they should have tried to get Ginsberg to retire before she died.

aye. they paid about €6m for him and then banned him from going anywhere near the goal posts he was that shite. not really surprising it could be getting investigated!

I think the Republicans increased the amount of people on it to get a majority of pro-republican judges on there. So the argument goes Biden could / should do the same

"throat goat Nancy Reagan"

Because you vote for the MP, not the party. The MPs are free to vote however they wish but if you go against the party line then you know what will happen. The rebels knew their actions would be ineffective and they knew they would face minor repercussions for doing what they did. Everyone saves face and the status quo continues.

So potentially... Out: Trippier Anderson Minteh In: 3rd choice GK 4th choice GK Lloyd Kelly (Im not counting Hall as he was already here) I know there's plenty of time left, but at present we have a worse squad than we ended the season with.

My take is that ‘Getting one over on the left’ is the sort Owen Jones type rhetoric that could paralyse a Labour government that has a massive amount to sort out. Grow up you pathetic fucking cunts, or don’t complain if we’ve got our own version of the Republican Party back in a term or two.

It wasn't part of the manifesto because of the optics of it providing the right wing media an attack line. So yeah, it was about getting votes, not getting one over the left or kids ffs. Now it's not in the manifesto they're hardly going to introduce it after 2 weeks are they? Personally, I fully believe in universal child benefit for all children. No means testing, no limits on family size. I am fairly sure Starmer, Phillipson etc also believe this. But it's not straight forward in our political climate. An additional problem is if you expand child benefit many families will hit the benefit cap and be no better off anyway. These problems are going to take a long time to sort out, at least two terms. If Starmer does half as well in tackling child poverty as New Labour did, under much, much worse constraints, I'll regard that as a success.

Perfection.

Some decent pubs, good beach, chippy is all right. Got a Crown Green Bowls... field? Pitch?
