I always find it interesting that US parties don't have the concept of a leader of the party in the same way we do in the UK. Appreciate you have things like speakers, minority leaders and stuff like that but, for example, there's no equivalent to Kemi Badenoch for the Democratic Party. Would have thought that, if they did, then imposing a united identity would be much easier. I guess the answer is that it would interfere with the whole presidential primaries etc but parties in opposition in the US always look a bit of an aimless mess.

Biggest shock of the night has to be Trump accepting the results.

That's the problem with these politicians, they're all the bloody same.

I'm looking forward to Dragan and Spors doing a shit video advertising Netscape.

That number plate is illegal too.

I'd be interested in seeing how Larin matches up against Edwards (if he's fit). Edwards is one of those players that seems to have a lot of hype around him but I didn't see anything to justify it at all - relatively small for a CB, not very quick and easily bullied. I didn't see any of his supposed composure either so if he plays anything like he did when he was with us then Larin should have an easy afternoon.

House looks almost certain to go Democrat but not sure on the Senate and I'd be tempted to have a bet on the republicans with those odds. Republicans always seem to outperform the polls and by a fair bit in some states and it wouldn't surprise me if a lot of republicans are lying to pollsters. Hope I'm wrong but a massive ask to flip 4 states that have been pretty solid republican strongholds.

I'll confess that even as I was typing it out, I knew this would be the most predictable response. Didn't have you down for it though. Anyway, that's hilarious. Well done.

The assumption that everyone knows every acronym under the sun.

Yeah, I did laugh at the tories getting worked up when they would have known about it before this story broke (and probably instigated it). Regardless, it would be useful to have a bit more context because at face value it's not a good look for the BBC.

This is the problem with the online world. You can't burn it. Back in the good old days we'd have a bonfire outside a library but wokeness and 'elf and safety stopped all that. TBF the headline about civil servants within the BBC is more concerning.

Was it worth watching?

Tend to agree but ultimately it'll be dependent on the rest of his career and how well he does. No one really talks about Bielsa and spying because there's so much other stuff about him to talk about and I'd actually forgotten the whole thing with Bielsa spying until this all blew up. It'll be the same with Tonda if he goes on to become a success.

Always feel it's a difficult wire to balance on with local journalists. On the one hand we want them to be supportive of the club and back them, and on the other hand we also want them asking the difficult uncomfortable questions. In terms of Blackmore, for a radio commentator I think he does a decent job of conveying excitement but I've also noticed that during games he quite often gets things wrong.
