Happy and sad at the same time. Football, eh? We couldn't have another season like last, that was such a missed opportunity

There speaks a man utterly terrified of knowledge

He’s the living embodiment of “f*ck about, find out”. No sympathy for him whatsoever.

He is such a fucking dork 🤣

Everyone who gets sucked into Trump’s orbit gets ruined eventually. It’s wonderful to behold 🤣

Everything that Trump touches dies

I fear that would only end in tears. He was my favourite player back in the day, I just don’t know whether he’s got it in him any more to stand up to the challenge of the Championship and sorting out this mess of a team. I don’t think I could bear to watch him fail.

Have we seen Carrick made any progress himself at all during his time here? Improve? Learn from his mistakes? Absolutely not. I can’t see that changing if he gets another season. Same for Woodgate, it’s staggering that he’s still with us. We can’t have another season like this one next year.

Even after all this time Parallel Lines is an absolute banger of an album, thanks to the band as much as Debbie Harry

Time will tell, but I really don't think she was the problem out in Australia. Let's hope she bats on and enjoys a Joe Root-style renaissance now she's no longer captain. The next coach/captain combo have to deliver some unpalatable truths inside that dressing room

Outstanding piece. Far too many broadcasters/commentators/writers seem to have been cowed into toe-ing the official ICC/BCCI line. Too worried about risking their own slice of the cake? Truth is it was an awful tournament and a worrying sign of what’s to come with Shah driving the BCCI and the ICC.

Games should not have been played in Dubai. But nobody seems to want to discuss that. Quite fitting that today's semi was played out in a largely empty stadium. Doubtless the final will be too.

And Americans often seem genuinely amazed that an increasing proportion of the world sees them as the enemy. Go figure… 🤣

The kompromat that Putin has on Trump must be absolutely staggering. It’ll all come out, eventually

Hopefully a first step and a further strengthening of bonds within European NATO members. Equally important were Starmer’s words about improving our manufacturing capacity - we’re not exactly sat with loads of mothballed plants to churn out tanks and planes. It’ll take time.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, she has all the gravitas of a first-year Politics A-Level student. Thank god we have grown-ups in government again.

As dumb as a rock 🤣

Does the term "fuckwit" resonate in America?

This is an all-time low for the US. Hang your heads in shame.
