🍺🤣 Meet Michael Hewitt, a 65-year-old England fan. He was reported missing last week after disappearing during a layover in Barcelona on his way to Boston.
His family contacted the British Embassy and even INTERPOL after they couldn't reach him for 10 days.
In reality, there was never any danger. After losing his phone and digital travel documents, Hewitt simply checked into a hotel, found a local bar, and spent his days watching the World Cup. 😂⚽️
Authorities eventually tracked him down through his credit card transactions and found him relaxed, happy, and completely unaware that he'd sparked a huge international search operation. 🌍🍻
🦉 SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY TIME MACHINE 🦉
Right then...
You can go back and watch ONE Sheffield Wednesday match again for the first time.
But...
❌ No Miracle of Hillsborough
❌ No Boxing Day Massacre
❌ No Wembley finals
❌ No obvious answers
We're after the proper niche picks.
The game that only a Wednesday fan would choose.
A random Tuesday night under the lights.
A game where we turned into prime 70's Brazil for 90 minutes.
A result that nobody outside S6 remembers but you'll never forget.
What's your pick?

If people genuinely believe Burnham won’t receive the exact same media onslaught, they’ve not been paying attention.
Starmer is not, objectively, bad. This idea that he is somehow the worst PM in British history is frankly laughable.
Liz truss lasted 49 days, crashed the pound and was laughed out of Downing Street.
Since Labour took office, Keir Starmer’s government has:
• Scrapped the two-child benefit limit, lifting hundreds of thousands of children out of poverty and putting money back into some of the hardest-pressed households in the country.
• Expanded free school meals, cutting costs for families and making sure more children get a proper meal during the school day.
• Expanded funded childcare, reducing one of the biggest monthly costs facing working parents and making it easier for people to stay in work.
• Raised the National Living Wage, increasing pay for millions of low-paid workers.
• Strengthened workers’ rights, giving people greater protection against insecure work and bad employers.
• Introduced statutory sick pay from the first day of illness, so workers are less likely to choose between their health and their wages.
• Ended no-fault evictions, giving renters more security in their homes.
• Brought rail operators back into public ownership, taking key services out of failed private hands and giving the public a stronger stake in how they are run.
• Cut NHS waiting lists from their post-pandemic peak, meaning more patients are being seen sooner.
• Raised the state pension through the triple lock, protecting pensioners’ incomes against rising costs.
• Scrapped the old non-dom tax regime, making some of the wealthiest people in the country pay more fairly.
• Added VAT to private school fees, raising money from those most able to contribute.
• Removed business rates relief from private schools, ending an unjustified tax break.
• Increased neighbourhood policing, putting more officers and PCSOs back into communities.
• Helped bring knife crime down, meaning fewer families face the devastation of serious violence.
• Recorded the lowest homicide rate since the 1970s, a material improvement in public safety.
• Created Great British Energy, giving Britain a publicly owned clean energy company.
• Created the National Wealth Fund, backing investment in industry, infrastructure and clean energy.
• Passed planning reforms aimed at getting homes and major projects built faster.
• Improved relations with the EU, reducing diplomatic hostility and rebuilding practical cooperation.
• Agreed a UK-EU security partnership, strengthening cooperation on defence and European security.
• Signed a long-term partnership with Ukraine, reinforcing Britain’s support against Putin’s invasion.
• Secured new trade agreements, opening up markets for British businesses.
• Helped restore seriousness to government after years of scandal, chaos and decline.
People do not have to like Starmer. They do not have to vote Labour. But pretending this is the record of the worst Prime Minister in British history is absurd.
Rupert Lowe, a 68 year old, privately educated, former investment banker, backed by the world's richest man, is trying to convince you he's not the establishment.
Every World Cup has that one completely random striker who turns into prime Ronaldo Nazário for exactly two weeks, has a great tournament, signs a £60M contract with a top club, and then disappears from football forever.
I wonder who it's going to be this month
