@nfluk_tickets @TicketmasterUK should not be allowed to run these processes. Just like oasis. Never works, their processes and systems are not fit for purpose!

@LondonCityAir Not today you aren’t #delayed

@GaryLineker Absolute joke. Binning the season ticket at end of this season as it ain’t getting any better. We go to football for moments like that, and they’re being systematically taken away. Football = dead

@markgwyatt @Football_LDN Breaking news: you’re an utterly irresponsible and incompetent ‘journalist’ who should be ashamed of himself for peddling made up nonsense (on Xmas day) in an attempt to get an exclusive. Or whatever it was you were doing, as what it was not doing is journalism

@paulbz Still planning on going, as things stand…although next my plans weekend are now in ruins from the new travel rules. But this Slush is important…

Not a bad day to start my new role, heading the expansion of Hercules Capital into the European market. It’s been a long 3 months. Can’t wait to get started!

Great thread by @fintechjunkie on why we are likely in a stock market bubble https://t.co/7q5vmCEGwm

@SkyUK nice to see you are now charging customers of 16 years a £10 'admin fee' to renew their contracts. Utterly disgusting, way to make your customers feel loved!

[Premier League Panel @PremLeaguePanel]

A reminder that Mourinho has been allowed to spend £92 million (net) whilst at Spurs - a total that is just £8 million short of what Pochettino spent in 5 seasons at the club.

Spurs changed their whole philosophy & spending habits for him and he’s taken them backwards.

@markjohns123 I’ve wanted him out for months, this is just the latest reason! It’s horrific to watch what we have become

[James Downing @jamesedowning]

@sinc_dj Never seen a worse shambles. Oh, since the last time we tried to beat someone at football. He’s got to go
