I remember winning by a similar score when playing for my primary school over 50 years ago (😳). I scored 11 but obviously went down hill (quickly) after that and had to ultimately become a lawyer rather than my preferred option of footballer. What might have been 😂

Good to see a decent performance against a very good Liverpool side. We need some players in/out but I still have a good feeling re Amorim.

My simple point is that we shouldn’t be selling a world class player and at his best @MarcusRashford is that. There are plenty ahead of him who should be sold.

Brilliant player and decent person.

Putting aside how he ever managed to achieve high political office in the first place, is anyone seriously interested in what Boris Johnson has to say now?

Job done and I can enjoy the weekend.

That’s the thing about being a Manchester United fan…we always believe.

One of the most difficult skills as a barrister is knowing when to say nothing. Keep humming the Welsh national anthem John 😬

Isn’t it incredible that (I hear) there are still some people that take Johnson seriously. Irony defined!

Best wishes and speedy recovery to Angel Gomes, who was badly injured today playing for Lille.

Whatever her actual abilities I could in principle respect the fact that Liz Truss was for a fleeting moment our PM. What I can’t stomach is her total lack of responsibility or humility, & her horrendous attempt to jump on a bandwagon she neither understands nor has the basic ability to articulate.
