That story about Rag'n'Bone Man's wife has incensed me. She traumatised that family for life - all just to get to her own kids a minute sooner - yet will be back doing the school run in time for the 2027/8 school year.
Consequences for dangerous driving in the UK are a disgrace.
🚨 Wayne Rooney fires back at Jürgen Klopp over his comments comparing Germany's disallowed goal to Arsenal's set-pieces:
🗣️ “Listen, you can't keep dragging Arsenal into every conversation.
Every time there's a controversial decision, somehow Arsenal become the reference point. It's getting ridiculous.
People spent an entire season trying to discredit Arsenal's set-pieces, calling them lucky, calling them boring and saying they were exploiting the rules.
Now Germany have a goal ruled out after a VAR review, and suddenly Arsenal are being mentioned again.
The two situations aren't the same.
Arsenal's set-pieces were worked on relentlessly on the training ground. They were legal, they were effective, and they played a huge part in Arsenal becoming Premier League champions.
Let's stop being hypocrites. When Arsenal score from a well-worked routine, it's called 'boring football.' When another team is on the wrong end of a VAR decision, Arsenal are somehow blamed for changing the game.
Enough of that.
Give Arsenal credit for what they achieved instead of using them as the benchmark every time football throws up another controversy.”
the concept of donations to a children's charity decreasing for every second that people stay over their allocated time... in a building full of unbelievably rich people...
The more I think about this, the more shocking it gets.
A government minister asked a political opponent a question, knowing that if he answered "yes", he would be arrested and potentially imprisoned.
That's thanks to his government's unhinged law.
It is so disturbing!
"Stare at a wall" is so apt bc there is literally nothing for kids to do here anymore. Parks are for young children, so teens get chased out, everything is super expensive so you can't go on a day out, and there's precious little nature left to explore.
Thats all you can do.
Qatar said it doesn’t matter who you are or where you come from, you can come to the World Cup, just don’t drink alcohol at the stadium.
USA said you can’t come. Who you are or where you come from matters. We’ll decide who can and can’t participate. This isn’t a sport for everyone.
so instead of showing the world cup opening ceremony i expect the bbc crew to give everyone watching a lecture about ethics and human rights like they did in 2022
This is utter bullshit. When Indonesia refused to grant the Israeli under 17 team visa’s for the 2023 U-20 World Cup, FIFA stripped Indonesia’s hosting rights and moved it to Argentina. So @FIFAcom can stop with the lies.
So far at the 2026 FIFA Epstein Cup before a ball kicked:
- Senegal & Uzbekistan squads treated like criminals upon arrival given full cavity searches;
- Africa’s best referee sent back to Somalia despite having a diplomatic passport;
- Iraq team photographer sent back despite valid visa;
- AIPS (international sport journalist association) calling on FIFA to sort out unacceptable visa issues of African & Iranian journalists;
- 90% of Moroccan fans with tickets denied entry
- 14 members of Iran backroom staff denied visas
Not a word from Gianni ”today I feel black/gay/disabled etc” Infantino.
No country should be allowed to host the World Cup while imposing discriminatory rules on qualified and participating teams.
This ought to be a very basic requirement.
