@Se_Railway why is the 17:42 to Orpington still sitting at Victoria and will it leave before the 17:57?

[Philip Scott-Wallace @pscottwallace]

#Championship refs need VAR. They’re so unfit and poorly sighted it’s unreal. #IPSVWBA

[Philip Scott-Wallace @pscottwallace]

@Se_Railway I did report it to your station staff and they said to write on X. Contact your station staff.

[Philip Scott-Wallace @pscottwallace]

Hi @Se_Railway we were getting off your 8:52 train at Herne Hill (to Victoria) and your driver shut the doors on my 4yr old daughter and my 1yr old son as we were getting off causing her to fall and almost go down between train and platform. Pls investigate what happened and why.

[Philip Scott-Wallace @pscottwallace]

Awful from Ipswich. A wake up call but we’ll only get better whereas Birmingham were at full tilt and they were awful too. Also terrible fans throwing stuff on the pitch and terrible discipline from their players. No place in football. Ref was atrocious too. #BIRIPS

[Philip Scott-Wallace @pscottwallace]

Saw this too! 🤔

Did TNT Sports just advertise Arsenal v Real Madrid in the next round BEFORE the Real Madrid match was decided? (It was 2-2 on aggregate when they adverised it

Fix?

@ChampionsLeague @tntsports @realmadriden @Arsenal

[Philip Scott-Wallace @pscottwallace]

@Se_Railway Sure you said that in the first tweet. When’s the next train going to be at Sydenham Hill?

[Philip Scott-Wallace @pscottwallace]

Anyone else just loving Man City’s implosion? Even with unlimited resources they are still fallible. Sport must be competitive, achievable and improvable to be engaging and entertainig. If you can just buy success then human endeavour is obsolete. #mancityvsmanu #PremierLeague

All over the rich world, people’s lives are getting worse.

It’s harder to afford the basics, keep a roof over your head, and access care when you’re sick.

People will keep voting for whoever they think will bring back prosperity. 1/

I hope the ref in #Sportingvsmancity refs an #ipswich match soon. #VAR #penalties

[Stan Collymore @StanCollymore]

Why?

"Why don't we produce English coaches of Tuchel's standard, Collymore "?

Two reasons.

1. £13,700 to do your Pro licence in England, today. In Spain it's around €2000. There are 2200 Spanish pro licence coaches. There are 200 English pro licence coaches. Look at the correlation between cost and coaching number.

2. Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney all took jobs instead of doing 3 years at SGP. Why? Gerrard got £2.5m at Rangers, Lampard £1m Derby, Rooney $1m Washington. Fuentes, Spanish head coach coached Sevilla and Bilbao youth on around €30k then Alaves first team where he lasted 6 months on around €100k before being sacked ( for those who thought Southgate Boro CV wasn't up to scratch).

So English coaches have to pay 10 times more than European compatriots to get the same qualification, and English players don't give SGP an identity because they never get there, they go straight to jobs where their fame gets them inflated salary and deal.

I invite anyone reading this to..

Tell me Gerrard's philosophy.
Lampard's philosophy.
Rooney's philosophy.

You can't. Because they never went to SGP to learn one or develop one with each other. An "English way". All winners by the way.

Spain? France? Every 12 year old could tell you the arse end of every Spanish coach, what the core tenets are and how they play. Why? Those coaches coaches with each other, can afford the courses and develop an overall style that suits the environment they work in ( Spain), which is then taken abroad and utilised everywhere.

Deal with the root causes and we'll get our coaches.

Same again today and everyday #sydenham @CllrCurran @ChrisBestUK @Jack_Lavery @MayorofLondon @LewishamCouncil

[Philip Scott-Wallace @pscottwallace]

The town planning in #sydenham is appalling. Solid traffic most days. The amount of pollution spewed out by idling cars in traffic everyday during school runs is criminal. What are you doing about it @CllrCurran @ChrisBestUK @Jack_Lavery @MayorofLondon @LewishamCouncil ?

[Philip Scott-Wallace @pscottwallace]

And I see @LBofBromley are implementing one way signs for Wiverton Road. We’ve asked for similar on Homecroft Road and parking permits to reduce rat run traffic and allow residents to park - when are these coming? When is the consultation? @CllrCurran @ChrisBestUK @Jack_Lavery

VAR: "Michael, having seen the replay, Trossard kicks the ball away to delay the restart. Unfortunately we have no choice but to show a second yellow card. Send him off."

I truly miss the pre-Trump political world.

Guess which one of these was a penalty?
