Arteta on Hurzeler's complaints:

"What a surprise."

Would you like to expand on that?

"No... just go back to the previous games."

I get that, Man City winning makes me feel nothing they’re like constant drizzling rain. It gradually makes you miserable but you don’t really feel as it’s happening anything.

Surely you’d rather we won the title than Pep’s sports washing project.

Have to say Derry beating Cork by 20 points was not within my predicted range of options but I’ll take it #Doireabú #GAA

On days like this it’s hard not think of Opus the Arseblog Basset Hound smiling down proudly from the heavens. Rest in Cheese.

I may spend the rest of the weekend just watching Stu McCloskey chasing down Marcus Smith and rag dolling him into touch on a loop. #IRLvENG

Great teams don’t blow a 2-0 lead against a side as limited as Wolves. I’ve always taken umbrage at the ‘bottlers’ label applied to this side but I can’t really argue against it tonight.

Horrible, terrible, very sorry for this young man and his family, and fuck the racists, but also why is the IRFU posting on X? What kind of reaction did they think they'd get from a post about a black player on the Nazi app?!

Cartoon. Person says to other person „We invented a robot that answers questions.“, adding, „we just have to feed it 10 baby giraffes a day“. The other person asks „But it answers the questions correctly?“ Person responds „Oh my goodness, no. No no no no no.“

I check the Derry game and find out we’ve had a player sent off. I wonder what it’s for then I check and find out David Gough is reffing the game and I know I needn’t bother. Just surprise he picked Conor Glass and not Shane McGuigan this time.

I find comfort in the knowledge that Ben White probably doesn’t know the score as he’ll be out walking the dog because he’s not really into football.

It feels like our attack as been most effective this season when Merino has led the line.

I’m just happy they have fixed the Derry jersey after the abomination O’Neill’s foisted on us for the last two seasons.

As an Irishman who worked in Whitehall for a few years I can confirm that figure is very low.
