We've turned ourselves into a lower mid table Championship team at best. Matos, McGuiness, Barry, Bindon, Soumare, Ogbene, the AI experiments, probably Chong & Zatterstrom, are all bad recruits. #sufc

The #LilyAllen album is a masterpiece. More as a story than a piece of music. She's been brutally honest and open, and brutally brutal. Even though he's been trashed it's impossible to have any sympathy for her ex, he deserves it all.
