@markstinchcombe Top man - the originator of the scored/carded double!

Breaking my Twitter ban to wish the Football...Only Bettor gang all the very best, was great to be there at the start and have continued to be a fan from afar. Big ups @kevinhatchard @MarkOHaire @JAKEOZZ @markstinchcombe @andybrassell @jasonjmurphy1 @carolinebarker @SebSB

[Kevin Hatchard 🎙⚽️ @kevinhatchard]

A shout out to @carolinebarker who was the ship's first captain, and for @DannyT78 for giving the thing its opening push. Covering several major tournaments was a joy, and we all appreciated every single listener and viewer. ♥️

@Gatwick_Airport Not super helpful. Are they on here?

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

@Gatwick_Airport - is autopay for drop off not working? Dropped off yesterday and no transaction has been processed

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

Find me over here swerving the disinformation and white supremacy. Already a good #thfc turnout

@VFTLpodcast @dannykellywords @JamesTMaw Does the sheer volume of comment, analysis & content across the internet after every single game create too many false narratives? After a win, Angeball is the way, after a defeat, he’s clueless and has to go. Riding this wave is exhausting!

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

Popping back on here to say well done to all the @BowelResearch runners at the @RoyalParksHalf 🙌

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

@Spooky23 Yeah, he said it. Was after Tory Jennings said Ange wouldn’t last past Christmas.

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

@MatthewStanger @SamSzmodics Feel your pain brother - I got married a month after Spurs actually won a trophy so the top table was Juande Ramos 🤪

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

@DulwichHamletFC @robavis @HawksFCOfficial Where there’s blame there’s a claim @robavis 🤣

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

@milesxaddy Yes mate, my favourite show of the year 🔥

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

@MarkOHaire 🤣 Otherwise known as the Scott Parker/Steve Cooper paradigm

@spoonybear Dave Troy is the man for this

Saturday thoughts:

1. Musk is on a path to confrontation with Western governments, which he may not survive.

2. Bitcoin is a national security threat and should be heavily taxed annually, payable in dollars.

3. Push people to register to vote, especially in urban areas and heavy suburban areas.

4. Tell those same people about Project 2025, and what it means for reproductive health and the dollar.

5. UK destabilization may be a harbinger of US destabilization and we should do what we can to block such contagion.

6. Every day the US fails to curb Musk, the more people lose faith in our institutions. This is demoralizing.

7. Americans have a parochial understanding of inflation, which isn’t caused by presidential policies but by global macroeconomic conditions. Dems should push this message.

8. The belief that scale in AI solves all problems betrays a kind of death of expertise, and replaces hard problems with articles of faith.

9. Sam Altman is a con man and it’s no wonder two cofounders and the head of product just left.

The best way to defeat Trump is to create the perception that victory is impossible. Create battlefield conditions that preclude victory by the opponent by demoralizing them and systematically blocking upside, wherever possible. Mind war. Onward!

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

Before? We had old men in journalism/broadcasting who refused to even try to understand online disinformation and laughed it off.

What did we do before @mariannaspring ? Should be a compulsory follow as part off membership of this troubled app. https://t.co/1mKlUuzQ3P

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

@chris_hawkins Louis Theroux, Hot Chip @ Brixton. He was very cool.

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

@gamray @dannykellywords @Pipey78 It’s a significant change in meaning though - and as Danny said, potentially repeated a lot.

Also not sure the season starting has any impact, most of that lot are probably on bans anyway!

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

@dannykellywords @gamray @Pipey78 If he’d had said ‘many of the far-right thugs are also football fans’ it would have been fine as there’s no disputing that one, it’s where the EDL all started. But ‘many football fans are far right’ is factually incorrect.

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

Completely gone watching this.

[Sky Sports Cricket @SkyCricket]

"He was a fierce and unflinching competitor" 💭

Michael Atherton remembers his former team-mate Graham Thorpe ❤️

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

Excellent, this

[Dan Thomas @DannyT78]

So sad. My favourite cricketer of all time. The ‘little genius’ had it all - attack, defend, flourish, dig in. His autobiography is the most honest I’ve ever read. Love you, Thorpey.

[Surrey Cricket @surreycricket]

It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of Surrey and England legend Graham Thorpe, MBE.

Everyone associated with the Club is devastated by the tragic news of Graham’s death.
