Gary Lineker was forced out of the BBC because he opposed Israel’s genocide.

Not because anyone actually believes he’s antisemitic in the slightest.

I know it, you know it, and what’s more - the people who drove him out know it.

It's those who oppose genocide who have sacked, silenced, arrested. The world turned on its head

Too many apps. Remember when it was just Facebook for boring parents, instagram for making other people feel like shit and Twitter for self important cool dudes?

I was on Twitter.

Certain sections of the Leicester City crowd really let their club down today when Heaven was down, and very obviously, badly injured. Weird how some people’s brains are wired.

I thought the Fairs Cup became the Uefa cup(?)

Certainly think it was on a par with that arsehole Alan Hardaker’s three handled cup back in the sixties.

Or does that not suit today’s narrative?

Ayden Heaven stretched off at Leicester. He was MUFC's best player in the first half. So impressive.
Injuries have battered MUFC last season and this. It's non-stop.

Injury curse strikes again

Fingers crossed for the lad

If you enjoyed the excellent new documentary on #bbc4 about #paulineboty that was released this week by @mvinny70 then i highly recommend the book “Pauline Boty: British Pop Art’s Sole Sister by Marc Kristal” to learn more about the criminally overlooked 60’s artist.

Given how wonderful our previous managers said things were going at Old Trafford and how much they got on with the owners, only to rip them to pieces the moment their employment came to an end, i would take anything Amorim says on the subject with a tiny pinch of salt. #manutd

Basic positions that need upgrading in the summer. Goalkeeper, centre back, wing backs, striker.

Absolute minimum. Given the financial constraints.

I’d say we were shockingly shit, but the shock element evaporated months ago.

Seriously poor. Changing the manager (when they did) feels like a bad move.
