I went 9. It’s so easy to react to a bad week. Bournemouth a month ago were talked as being unstoppable. Fulham a month ago not dissimilar. We can turn it round. We may not. Either way we are in a tremendous position to build on and I’m just so tired of the idiots screaming on social media...

Please don’t think I’m trying to have a dig / I’m not. Truly. A you articulate what you mean by the neoliberal consensus? In really simple terms?

In 1992 my dissertation was ‘The fall of the Weimar Republic and the Rise of Nazi Germany. Alan Bullock states ‘Adolf Hitler was not swept into office on a wave of public adoration but rather jobbed into office via a backstairs intrigue’. Present in 25,000 words or less whether you agree with...

I’ve watched it several times - seems as if the foot went to Mitoma to create contact if that makes sense. His leg changes direction or extends to ensure that he makes contact with Mitoma. Not saying it not a penalty. Just that it wasn’t clear and obvious that Mitoma ‘took him out’

can’t stand the vlogging trend. Few weeks back at a Valencia game a couple of British kids (in their early 20’s) decided to turn up in the ‘ultras’ section behind the goal. About five mins they were towed out by the police having been kicked round the terrace for a good couple of minutes. I go...

She looks a right cuti(cle)

We may wish Palace to be appalling and potential relegation candidates next season / but absolutely no chance. Pains me to say it but they have an excellent manager, have dealt with two key players leaving last summer very well and will be comfortably mid-table next season and likely pushing top...

That has made me think. What days they were. Two hours sleep on a Friday night having promised yourself you’ll only have a couple. Up at 4.30am and back on it. Darlington away (back in the days of Feethams) was my Favourite. Can anyone please tell me the name of that pub right outside...

Hope, sex and tripe.

I sadly have a Leeds fan who works for me and he spent half an hour last week explaining (with an absolutely straight face) that Rutter will hand in a transfer request as soon as Leeds’ promotion is confirmed. He also is under the impression that (and I quote) ‘the worry for the Premier league...

That’s why I shouldn’t post.

Good Lord IlUnited really just a dreadful football team. Poorly coached, sub-standard players playing in front of a dismally disinterested crowd and billions in debt. Splendid and tremendous.

I think that’s a little harsh on Ramsdale 😂 he’d have more joy organising a Montessori school outing than the catastrophe that was unfolding in front of him.

I’ve heard the odd comment from people about coming through Gibraltar. I have lived in valencia for two years and no-one I know has had an issue similar to what you’re outlining. If you’re coming on holiday and have a return trip booked you’ll breeze through. If you have no return flight booked...

Oh my god I had hoped that would be also lost in the lost of time. I got fired a few weeks later. Rightly so. I was woken by a very kind police officer round the back of the petrol station near the cuilfail tunnel at 4am. With no shoes on. I was refused entry to Withdean that night. Hours lost...
