Easy to be wise after the event, but it’s interesting to reflect on the analysis carried out last summer into EtH replacements. I recall reading it and whilst Amorim actually topped the list, I held reservation due to the 3-4-3 formation. Here for reference jamesrenton10.medium.com/the-best-sta...

How on earth doesn't VAR intervene here? Clearly I'm all for it given he then saves a City penalty, but this is baffling.

Just finished Killing Thatcher, by Rory Carroll. A stunning piece of work, superb storytelling. A non-fiction novel that reads like a thriller.

Over on the other place. Wild bit of engagement farming bringing United into it. Expected better of a BBC guy.

It’s also hugely at odds with the key Pillar in the WRU’s strategy: “Capture, engage and grow our Welsh rugby audience through positive brands, experiences

Amidst the ongoing discussions and misinformation, it's crucial to highlight the paucity of the Glazers' *personal* investment into United over the past 20yrs. This is indicative and not scientific, but provides a picture of how little investment there has been from them compared to other PL clubs.

Objectively, had somebody not watched the game and seen these stats, they’d have wondered how on earth we didn’t get anything from the game. Individual errors clearly didn’t help, as well as profligate finishing. Plus, a dubious team selection from the manager today…

Further down at Llandaf Rowing club the river is very very high. For context in the distance the water is nearing the edge of the Bridge Road bridge. And the white small sign in the foreground is usually a bench and viewing point. Totally under water.

The rumour at the time is that he was always going to West Ham, and they'd bought his parents a car or something as a sweetener. God knows if that was true! He is 1st on the right, front row in this pic.
