@Tiny17967041 @implausibleblog I expect he ‘sounded like’ he knew what he was talking about when he was promoting the benefits of Brexit and look how that has turned out.

@robertmdaws @CPFC I saw him score for Walsall against Palace in the FA Cup at their place. Cracking left foot shot if I remember correctly. We signed him in the summer and he played one season for us and scored 8 goals in the League but none, I think, away from home. Had a great shot on him.

@gidleymike @HLTCO Me too. Pure joy!

@SoCpfc Oakace will always have a special place in my ❤️

[David Gleave @DavidGleave7]

@SoCpfc And Palace too!

[David Gleave @DavidGleave7]

@SoCpfc All of them, I’ve been supporting Oakace since 1963😀

@HLTCO The sharks will circulate regardless. Wharton wouldn’t be getting an England call up if he had chosen Chelsea over us so this sends out a signal to other ambitious young players.

@Zero_4 I thought it was very good, it is a comedy show, right? Beyond parody #bbclaurak

@GBNEWS Susan Hall, once an arsehole, always an arsehole.

@HLTCO Palace player on Man City player - penalty. Man City player on Palace player - no penalty. Simples. The PL is bent as a ten bob note.

This is where much of the UK’s wealth comes from.

@TomHCalver @thetimes That’s still 98 too many.

@MarinaPurkiss What planet is this man on, ‘not gender based, not race based’!? The comments were vile and anyone defending them (a Government Minister in this case) is frankly, beneath contempt.

[David Gleave @DavidGleave7]

@HistorycalR @RoyalAirForce @BlkHistStudies @BlackBritHist @yorkshirepost @looknorthBBC It's a great read, an important post by a very excellent historian!

@angelaeagle He won’t sack her because she is stoking up a phoney culture war and sowing division and hate - which is government policy.

Tommy Best became Cardiff City's 1st black player on this day in 1948 in front of a crowd of over 46,000 at The Hawthorns. West Brom won 2-0 and went on to be promoted. Tommy later joined QPR @CardiffCityFC @QPR @MagicOfTheFACup @kickitout @KickOffAt3
