This was a great debut and the best thing he had done since the Oasis imperial phase

Even if the application was not terrible (shining a light on the shocking standard of officialdom in the Prem), there is a huge reason it needs binning. With VAR, the joy of a goal for your team - check for a flag and that it’s been given on your way out of your seat - is gone forever.

100% agree. Fireworks are crap on the whole

I’m not sure that is quite true - Blood On The Tracks and The Boatman’s Call were hugely lauded, bitter albums by male artists. West End Girl is different not because it’s written by a woman, but because it is so unusually specific and precise in the telling.

One of many regrettable consequences of the 'the point of politics is elections' s smart or savvy to just tell self-destructive lies that mean you can't govern effectively, because governing is just a tedious distraction between the real business of talking about who is gonna win the next election.

Jota been off but bigger issue is how easily they are playing through the lines. Might even be a case for Endo

Yes it’s nuts. Up with VVD in transforming LFC - arguably a more critical signing than Salah and Mane

I guess the Elvis Costello song is too niche bit would be a great terrace song…

Same. Podcasts will always have an uphill struggle against music in my preferences, it almost feels like they are for people who don’t love music! An hour is an absolute maximum and even then it would have to be something special.
