What has Yvette Cooper’s proscription of Palestine Action done to this country?

Beyond absurd. It’s extreme authoritarianism. These police should be arresting rapists & crooks, not neglecting those duties to spend time arresting citizens standing against genocide.

It undermines police and the law.

FPL's Template Strategy Has Changed Forever
😱🎯🚨

Watch here: youtu.be/_CmeEwOM_0A

People are always slow to adapt to change.

In FPL, this offers us a unique advantage.

Five at the back is now the best form of attack.

After a summer of failed attempts to land a striker, #NUFC have signed 23-year-old German international striker Nick Woltemade (Vol-tuh-mar-duh) from VfB Stuttgart in a club record £69m deal.

Let’s look at what the 6’6” striker, nicknamed "Wolte-Messi", will bring to St James’ Park 🧵

Has anyone thought that maybe Isak was only at #nufc to play alongside Sean Longstaff?

Best thing to do now is sell him to Saudi for £200m. If it's Liverpool, get £100m plus Darwin Nunez. Either way, we've wasted two and a half transfer windows, so get the lad sold quickly, get new players in and move on.

Isak will always be a legend for the cup winner. #NUFC

Going live in just over half an hour, talking first drafts - six elite options plus my current draft. Will only be live for half hour max because @fplhaveabeer.bsky.social is streaming at 6pm & I'm not stepping on his toes. Hope to see you there!

Brentford value Wissa at £50m, so we offer £25m. The transfer policy at this club is a shambles, an absolute shambles. Just pretending to try and sign players. #nufc
Brentford have turned down an offer from Newcastle United to sign Yoane Wissa.

A proposal worth £25million was knocked back but the north east club’s pursuit is ongoing, while personal terms would be no problem.

🚨 It's not about Alexander Isak for #nufc owners. Not really.

Bigger picture is uncertainty at the top & recruitment struggles. PIF need to get a hold of it - fast. 😳

We are deeply saddened by the passing of our former player, Wyn Davies at the age of 83.

‘Wyn the Leap’ made over 200 appearances for the club and was part of our 1969 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup winning side.

Our thoughts are with Wyn’s family and friends at this sad time. 🖤🤍

Quite sad Longstaff is off. Solid player who never let anyone down and had some special moments. In a just world, he would spend his whole career here as cover. Sadly, the rules dictate if you want to play for your hometown club, you're better off being developed elsewhere. #nufc
🚨 EXCL: Leeds United reach agreement in principle with Newcastle United to sign Sean Longstaff. 27yo midfielder into final 12 months of #NUFC terms & provided no issues finalising deal, will become major recruit for #LUFC ahead of PL return @TheAthleticFC

Callum Wilson did the number 9 shirt proud. Class player who will be remembered fondly. #nufc
Callum Wilson has confirmed he will depart Newcastle United after five seasons at the club. 
 
Callum has played a huge part in our success in recent years and we thank him for all his contributions.
 
Good luck for the future, CW9! 🫡🖤🤍

In general it’s fine to post “we’re fucked” on your own account because you might feel that way and it might be therapeutic to say how bad everything is, but it’s not fine to reply “we’re fucked” to everyone and everything because that might not be what other people need to hear all the time

Such sad and surreal news about Andre and Diogo Jota. For either to die is tragic; for a family to lose two members so young is so difficult to comprehend. I can't imagine the devastation they are experiencing, and my heart goes out to them.

At a narrow bridge I noticed the car flashing me through had an reg ending in LBW. Rather than giving the standard hand raise of thanks, I gave an umpire single finger "out" signal. They replied with a 4 runs arm wave. One of the greatest human interactions of my life.

I'll stop quoting Bertrand Russell in a second (might not) but his explanation of the psychology of the far-left is astonishingly on point. He wrote this over 100 years ago. Absolutely nothing has changed.

I get keeping Ruddy & Gillespie if Dubravka & Odysseas are leaving, because we can sign Trafford and have two competing for first-choice & two back-ups. Even then though, replacing Ruddy & Gillespie with two of Krul, Forster & Woodman makes more sense.

Wilson is baffling.
