Yeah, all fair points. Allardyce was Ashworth’s man too. Hopefully he continues to get his way and Southgate is next up at Man Utd

System only works if the successor wants the job. I don’t know if Carsley was definitely sounded out but the reaction to the Greece game might’ve made his mind up. Ruched seems very tactically astute anyway, which is probably the most important thing at international level

Strawb moving to wipe that smug look off MF’s face

It’s probably ridiculous he got that role (on that sort of salary I mean). But, aye. You can’t see that making much difference in the scheme of things or proving to be popular with those that idolise him (which every Man Utd fan should)

The best ways to tackle obesity are 1) provide proper lessons in how to cook in schools, with enough time and resources. 2) spend a lot more money of sports facilities* and on outdoor recreational resources to make them more widely accessible to different social groups. I’ve thought that was canny obvious for decades. *especially in schools but for the wider community

The Clarkson fans, man. He’s boring as fuck, with his edgy patter, in lieu of a personality. His fans are similar but with the ‘bantz’ by proxy.

Like a warm corpse

King Conker

Makes you think

Where Corbyn’s manifesto was positioned on the political spectrum didn’t necessarily make it deliverable then and it’s without a doubt less deliverable now. I don’t know why people get too hung on manifestos anyway. No one reads them or sticks to them

Because they all made big allowances for their club spending more in transfers during the occasionally mentioned run of six consecutive victories against us too

He was past his peak because of the injuries but still brilliant when Brazil won the World Cup in 2002. An aspect of his game that’s probably underrated is his superb finishing ability. Which is part of why he was still so effective when he was no longer rapid.

Have they not realised all the security, stewards and ground staff at the SoL are mags?

I was on tenterhooks waiting to find out who the keyboard player looked like.

That Roker Mackem character still not bothered about us I see.

He’ll later progress to being annoyed at mags not being annoyed about the made up thing he’s pretending we’re annoyed about

Definitely happened 👍🏻

Gay. Lolz

Knew a lad who had a book on hallucinogenic mushrooms. Iirc you had to be very careful with the preparation of fly agaric. Never bother with that myself although nearly everyone I knocked about with did liberty cap ones. Which are obviously much safer, from a poisoning yourself pov. The period you’re in about, when you could get the Hawaiian ones etc in places like Kard Bar. They were imported from Holland (where they were legal). And someone had spotted a loophole in the law. Iirc, they were only illegal if ‘prepared’. I.e. dried and / or added to hot water to consume. So they sold fresh ones for a while. I saw a good documentary re: the industry in the Netherlands. A foreign tourist with mental health problems jumped off a building or something and died after taking some. The government banned them. So these farmers diversified into growing hallucinogenic truffles instead. They became known as the Truffle Brothers Not really sure why they were ok but the shrooms weren’t.

And how can you be a generational talent on your day?

Saw this on Cuntbook. I didn’t read the article but it’s fucking mental the platform she has. The BBC promoting her ffs. I know it’s just local but howay

I forgot it was on. Flicked through and saw it was 0-1. I watched about 2 minutes after that. Completely uninterested tbh. In fact, I’d forgotten about it again until I came on here this morning However, I would say that if you’re going to experiment a bit then a Nations League game v Greece is probably the place to do it. Re: Carsley. I wonder if he’ll see the reaction and think to himself ‘Can I really be arsed with this? If this is the reaction to a fairly meaningless result’

You’ll have to ask Gillian McKeith

Mental result.

Bit late in life to harbour ambitions of joining the SAS if you ask me
