"men at the top want to divide us all" says a man casting vast, racist generalisations about two groups of people. couldn't write it better if you tried 👍

[Bootlegger @bootlegger1974]

@franny550 @SkyNews Hey pal a English man will help you out in your hour of need these morrocans and algerians will rob ya blind the men at the top want us to divide don’t fall for it pal

[Paddy @Paddyyak]

Real consequence of whipping up a media frenzy

for a stone wall, correct decision as well. crazy stuff

[Gary Lineker @GaryLineker]

This might be the worst VAR decision I’ve seen (and there’s a lot of competition). Extraordinary given the significance.

[Paddy @Paddyyak]

How is this being called the "worst VAR decision of all time." Even if you don't think it should technically be given as handball (which it definitely should) it clearly hits his hand in a raised position making it nowhere near the worst VAR call in the last week let alone ever

[Ewan MacKenna @EwanMacKenna]

I hate Arsenal, irrationally, as I explained at weekend. But my argument over VAR with them and West Ham was largely goal was given, and about 20 Arsenal fouls in box were ignored at same time. And that's me being irrational.

In Scotland, I get desperation for Hearts to win. In on it. But that Motherwell handball against Celtic is not only clearest you'll see, but also involved another foul in same action, as in elbowing a guy in head.

The reaction is mental.

What do people want VAR to do here 😂😂😂

[Paddy @Paddyyak]

@beaverd do you think communism means no more buying of books ?

[Paddy @Paddyyak]

imagine showing people in ye olden times (or even just a few decades ago) an image of our city's tallest building being constructed and their excited little olden times faces asking what it was going to be and you had to say "oh, student flats, and pretty shitty ones at that"

[Tristan Cork Post @TristanCorkPost]

This is going to be the tallest building ever built in Bristol in a thousand years of history.
Already getting big…

[Bristol Citizen @bristol_citizen]

Why aren't they doing these things in Bristol where they run the council?

[Rovers pundit @RoversPundit]

Blackburn Rovers Ladies have been relegated from National League Division One (North), finishing bottom with 2 wins from 22 and 8 points from 66! 📈

A season reflecting neglect and underinvestment in a valued community team.

Every club should properly support a women’s side. 🤝

[Paddy @Paddyyak]

This story has approximately 21 paragraphs of mental gymnastics explaining why the very real science of economics means prices must stay high when they could've just said "because keeping prices high suits those selling it"

[Paddy @Paddyyak]

noooo surely not 😭

why not ask them all to chip in another tenner and whack a wba crest over the stadium, forfeit the game and just host a wba staying up party instead? build up a bit of money for the league one campaign next season 💪

[Paddy @Paddyyak]

jeeeez they nailed this

football often such a clear reflection of society at large

sad some can see it coming but do little about it

the top level doesn't need to be where you do your footballing though, there is more fun to be had elsewhere, you've just got to build it

[Retro Football Network @retrofootballnw]

BBC Sport have just done a feature on what football will be like 2036.

Back in 1994, on the football show Standing Room Only, they looked at the future of the game.

This one from 32 years ago was more serious.

US bombers that leave from the UK to strike Iran, have to fly around Europe -- not through it -- because no one will let them use their air space except us.

How shameful and embarrassing to be directly participating in this. Keir Starmer is a mass-murderer from Gaza to Tehran.

[Tara Ann Thieke @TaraAnnThieke]

When I was in my 20s I wished to deepen my understanding of the Israel-Palestine situation. So I purchased at least a dozen books - mostly semi-obscure, academic, many by dissenting Israeli historians.

A day came when I closed a book halfway through, resolved to read no further, even to try to forget all I had learned, and then I donated all the books. It was clear, painfully and miserably clear, that I would be wasting my life trying to understand it more when it was nothing more than this.

we need to do something about the sheer number of announcements and repeat announcements and length of announcements on trains. it's unbearable.

what do you MEAN loaded jacket potato???? every jacket potato is loaded, that’s the POINT

[Isaac_kh @isaac_kh]

If you want to know how disingenuous people are they're on here today clutching their pearls about Bristol Apartheid-Free Zone, a peaceful campaign about talking to your neighbours, when a bunch of actual far-right thugs besieged a pub in Bristol literally yesterday

[Paddy @Paddyyak]

forget VAR, forget the club world cup, forget a German managing the English national team. The loss of this vote is the biggest game's gone moment.

[Footy Scran @FootyScran]
