Too many people treat Argentina as this romantic love letter to football because of one player, Messi. They are a horrible, horrible team. Call it out. Don’t glorify what they are. A disgrace.
I will accept Nigel Farage’s request to be appointed Steward and Bailiff of the Manor of Northstead.
It is a farce and a desperate distraction, and the people of Clacton deserve better.
But if he wants to spend the summer arguing with a bin, I won't stop him.
We need an official statement from @ITV to explain why they feel we, as an audience, benefit from Lee Dixon as a commentator.
It's inexplicable. No energy, no insight, no controversial takes.
It's an important crucial role, @ITV. WTF?
Elon Musk held up a chainsaw, fed USAID into the wood chipper, and at least 600,00 people have already died as a result - two-thirds of them children.
History's first trillionaire.
Without going all pseudo-intellectual; at the heart of it, football is all about the shared human experience. Today will be one of those. Enjoy it; wear something daft, have another drink, cuddle a stranger.
Who truly knows what comes next, but for today who cares? Today is about the last year and the scale of shared achievement. It's about how people worked together and kept the thing breathing. And it's about the renewal of hope and possibility.
Park protests, leaflets, boycotts, embassies, Leicester, Boro, Megastore sell-outs, Oxford, endless togetherness on endless doomed away trips. Fear, defiance, faith. Personally, I'm proud and privileged to have witnessed the whole lot.
Today's society feels increasingly individual and cold and uninterested in the value of community. It wasn't without its moments, but the overwhelming feeling is that Sheffield Wednesday's 2025/26 travails brought it all back. Awesome in the true sense of the word.
UTO.

The EFL has sanctioned Sheffield Wednesday consistently since 2018.
Over that period, the club has been hit with multiple transfer embargoes spanning nearly a decade. By October 2025, Wednesday were under six simultaneous embargoes — the most any club has ever faced.
On top of that, the club has suffered repeated points deductions. A -12 deduction in 2020/21 severely damaged recruitment and momentum going into that season. Although it was later reduced to -6 on appeal, the damage had already been done — those points ultimately proved the difference between survival and relegation to League One.
In 2025, the situation worsened further. The club received:
•-12 points for entering administration, after the former owner failed to meet basic financial obligations such as paying wages and bills on time
•A further -6 point deduction, again due to the owner’s failure to uphold his responsibilities
This is not a case of a club gaining an unfair advantage — quite the opposite. The club has been placed at a significant competitive disadvantage for years due to sustained mismanagement.
Sheffield Wednesday has endured one of the most damaging ownership periods a club of its size is likely to experience. The former owner’s approach has not only harmed the club financially but also created a toxic environment for staff and supporters alike.
And yet, despite this, there is now an expectation that the same owner should be repaid — while the club continues to face further punishment.
How can that be justified?
The new ownership group should not be penalised for the failures of the previous regime. They should be given the opportunity to restore stability to a club that has lacked it for nearly 26 years.
Imposing further sanctions — such as another -15 point deduction, spending caps, business plan restrictions, and transfer limitations — would only deepen the damage. It risks condemning the club to yet another relegation and prolonging the cycle of instability.
At some point, there has to be recognition that continued punishment is no longer corrective — it is excessive.
The club, its staff, and its supporters deserve the chance to move forward.

@storchyowl
@EFL You’re punishing the club again, for not paying millions of pounds to a man who has reduced us to the point where we can’t flush the toilets? #FairDealForWednesday
@SpireiteLiam@swfc It’s one of those where you’re if you’re not clever enough to understand what is happening, probably best to stay quiet, fan of a tiny club that never have and never will matter
This is the joke that we’re having to live through at the moment. I wonder if @thaiuniongroup are happy knowing this clown is dragging the name of the family further through the mud
- He's threatened to turn Hillsborough into a block of flats
- He's tried to raise money by asking associates to sell 500kg of African gold & invest in blockchain idea
- He's had bust-ups & paid staff late
Welcome to Dejphon Chansiri's Sheffied Wednesday

This is what Sheffield Wednesday mean to people.
Dejphon Chansiri has to listen, finally show a shred of decency and compassion and sell the club.

“We hope the EFL will use all the powers it currently has to prevent the collapse of one of the oldest clubs in football.” Lord Blunkett, Sheffield MPs and #SWFC fans call on EFL to investigate owner Dejphon Chansiri. Already in contact with incoming Regulator for help.
