23 minutes gone, Bayern 4-0 up on 'plucky' part-timers Auckland City. FIFA's World Club Cup looking like it's going to be a world class farce.

Nothing like watching Bayern Munich playing at half speed and thrashing a team of part-timers. What a treat for Infantino

Newcastle United smashed the attendance record for the Championship as a crowd of 38,502 watched Becky Langley’s side triumph in the first-ever women’s Tyne-Wear derby at St James’ Park.

The previous second-tier record was 15,387 and had been set in October in the reverse fixture.

☁️ Grey clouds, a bit murky & potential for rain at St James' Park for the derby. 🏟️

This is what my brain is enthusing about. A 17 year old article about Liverpool band the Rascals saying they should be filed next to Liverpool band the Coral. Respective lead singers Kane and Skelly. www.theguardian.com/music/2007/d...
No 246: The Rascals
Today, Paul Lester tells us about a band he basically created, yeah

Rest in Peace David 🖤

It’s almost as if Bournemouth are a really in form team and the reaction from our fan base was hugely over the top. #NUFC

And here lies the problem. Nandy’s comments have nothing to do with Farage but journalists find a way to shoehorn him in to such stories as he generates clicks.
