Engineer, husband, screenwriter, father, author, husband, bedevilled self- build addict, failed gardener, did I mention husband and father?

@Der_Augustus Had it been given I doubt there would have been many complaints.

But it is possible to look at the footage and see that the defender was about to get the ball cleanly but then had his leg kicked out of the way by the attacker's knee.

First glance, pen; second look not so sure

@nicksortor Clear as day. They reach in with their 150ft blade and make the 300ft cut. Then they conceal the blade in the 150ft tote bag. Bang to rights.

@RepLuna This is a similar use of sophistry to the argument that claims Nazis were radical left because they had "socialist" in their party name.

I don't mind seeing female officials at @FIFAWorldCup games, in fact I rather applaud it, but serious question, do male officials get to take part in women's internationals and World Cup games? #USAAUS

Poor old Emma Hayes. She's rather been left high and dry by @ITV during these hydration breaks with no facilities and no real way of explaining anything properly #ENGCRO

@elonmusk Just tobe clear, to get 1 millionth of the sun's solar energy at our orbital distance would require a solar array just under 200,000 miles square. The "genius" has spoken again

That looked like offside twice before that penalty #QATSUI

@RightSide_Uk He's examining legal routes. Otherwise known as elections. And people hold the guy up as a genius.

@Beno10_MFC It depends on where he starts. If he starts at a random point on a cartesian framework plain then he ends up 5km away. But, if he starts at the South Pole of the planet then he will only be 3km away.

@EricLDaugh I'm sure the brave men and women going in to harm's way will be delighted that their Commander in Chief tipped the other side off that they were on their way

@libsoftiktok "Associated" with "suspected members". Good job he wasn't brown skinned and from a s**thole country otherwise he'd have had no chance. Oh...wait...

[Ian Bett @IanCBett]

Apparently fans at @FIFAWorldCup may get in trouble for rude chants. It would be a shame if @ScotlandNT fans started banging this one out

"Let the stink rise high
Let the stain flow low
Doon his legs the muck will flow
All the lassies shout Hello!
Donnie's shit his troosers"

[Ian Bett @IanCBett]

@TheRealJamieKay I say...

[Ian Bett @IanCBett]

@BBCSport Every referee and match official at @FIFAcom and @FIFAWorldCup should down tools in protest and solidarity. This madness will only stop when they are faced with the possibility of a prime time TV game being called off.

[Ian Bett @IanCBett]

@ImBreckWorsham That would be "dumocrat". The "b" is not necessary because most people don't realise that dumb has a b at the end of it anyway.

Apparently

@elonmusk He missed out "no clearly insane people in positions of power"

@RpsAgainstTrump Somebody needs to tell grandpa that his astronaut Trump on the moon is holding a flag that is flapping in the wind.

@RepNancyMace I'd love to see the evidence to support the "most respected" claim
