Maybe I should have stuck watching this one rather than switching off when United went 1-0 up

Nothing better than the replay of a manager "nodding it in" on the sidelines #MCFC

Well, there hasn't been much sign of that happening. #MCFC

Cherki jinks between 2 defenders, in the box, opens up and he's brought down by Bernardo 🤦 #MCFC

Can't say I'm optimistic that Villa will be able to hold on for a point here. #AVLARS

Smashed through the record today - it has appeared to be limited to below 23GW before today, maybe some new windfarm has come online today. Good news nonetheless. #Wind

Yeah, I know, the whole thing makes you want to vomit, but you have to take your hat off to whoever came up with this - evil genius at a "Bond Villain" level. I never could have come up with this in a million years.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino gifted U.S. President Donald Trump a gold trophy, a medal and a certificate.

Trump is the winner of the inaugural FIFA Peace Prize.

Truly shocking that Rachel Reeves had the audacity to call herself the U14 girls chess champions when she won the U14 girls chess championship but some bloke thought she was talking about something else.

Pretty sure I've never been to a 5-4 away win before. #MCFC

No better way to start the working week, than with a 90 minute, 9am Zoom call with 15 other people, going through all the jiras on the current project. 😩

Is this just going to be 90 minutes of set pieces and timewasting? #ARSTOT

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

Trossard is one of my most hated players. Good finish, mind.

Even with the late drama, another poor match - this season has been incredibly short of quality up and down the PL. Not sure quite what has happened.

@bymccullough.bsky.social @sammillerbb.bsky.social @grantbrisbee.bsky.social surely there's a Roundtable coming out today? We can't seriously be waiting until tomorrow?

I have just finished the 40 minute game 7 highlights. This was my heart rate this morning. The peak is the Pages catch in the bottom of the 9th. It dies completely at the Will Smith home run in the 11th. I knew it was over at that point. #2025WorldSeries

This is exactly the same argument — and, in parts, even the same language — that segregationists advanced to argue that white people had a “right” not to live next to people who were different from them.
Vance says it is "totally reasonable and acceptable" for people to not want to live next door to people who speak a different language than they do

I don't normally tune in for the coin toss, but is it normal for it not to be done in the centre circle? #VILMNC
