The Kraken

The worst thing is, you can just hear the needlessly smug twat uttering single word of that. Roll on the BBC coverage. ITV are just painfully shit in comparison.

France have got some great talent in their squad. And then they have Lucas Digne at left back.

Not unless it’s changed. Yellow card if you’re making a genuine attempt to play the ball. Red card if deemed not. Vamos Espana, 2-0.

Tour de France fans on the road.

RIP H from Steps.

Panini have actually lost the future contract, they got one more World Cup. Topps are set to take over after the 2030 tournament. Sad times.

The question is a bit unclear. Was he a saints player at the time he made the assists? Or just has represented the club at some point?

It’ll happen. It cements the votes for him around the world. And in honesty it won’t make much difference to 48 teams. It will still be groups of 4, it will revert to the top 2 from each group qualifying, same amount of knockout games as this year. In an era of multiple countries hosting the logistics are better set for it. I thought 32 games was the sweet spot but the genie is out of the bottle, so meh.

Yeah, I say it every summer but I’m going to wait until the winter then get one. Anything decently recommended seems to be sold out, and there’s load of tat on the market.

It looks to me like Farage is toxic to some but also key to some of the Reform base. I only see that losing him would be massively detrimental to their party as a whole. It’s quite evident that Richard Tice is a monumental arse with little appeal. I’d sat reform are fucked without Farage. It’s all well and good resorting to hyberbole, but just suggesting that anyone else is better is clearly nonsense. And as far as I can see there are no genuine standouts who would make a significant improvement. You clearly think otherwise, I don’t see it.

Despicable really. Makes a claim it was “one murder”, then when asked to clarify that, he said “yes, one murder”. I didn’t realise some people were so upset that their daddy couldn’t fire pistols any more after Dunblane, but it kind of outlines his character really. That’s the thing with him and Farage, the more you see of the, the more you realise what they’re actually about.

It’s a bit from both columns tbf.

Polanski needs to butt out completely and turn it into a complete farce. Five garage Farage v Count Binface.

Just a ridiculous man.

Not sure. This Brazil team are absolutely nothing like the quality of what’s gone before them. Norway are well organised and have some proper quality too.
