In a time of great upheaval, when all our old certainties are crumbling, it’s of enormous comfort to be able to rely on the fact that England will learn absolutely nothing from their appalling batting performance. #MAshes

Take a few minutes to appreciate Drew Struzan creating the original artwork for THE PHANTOM MENACE. Truly a master at work.

RIP the legendary Drew Struzan (1947-2025) 😩
Even though we were expecting the news any day now, it makes me very sad. What an artist.

Between three of the Tests vs India, Rory's Masters, England's women's Euros, all the United nonsense and this Ryder Cup, it's been a fucking excruciating summer or sport.

Stylish finish to a brilliant test. Feasting on some humble pie here, after criticism of bowling first. Can’t argue with that decision now.
