Dread to think how many time wasters he had ringing that number, just for an excuse to speak to him

Being able to park directly outside major attractions. Very noticeable in old movies, where some guy will, like, just pull up in the middle of Trafalgar Square and go off to do shit 😆

Correct. Per the Athletic article on football fanzines today

Wouldn’t have Jasper Carrott down as the midfield enforcer type

Gah. I’m missing deadlines hand over fist since loss of Twitter push notifications. Hopefully something Bluesky adds soon

I imagine they’re thinking Shanahan’s system is their strength and that cheaper/hungrier players can be just as effective at running it as established studs. Probably not unreasonable, as Jennings was their best WR last year and whoever they put at RB seems to get 100yds. Risky strategy though.

They had the fortune/insight to get a v.good Quarterback with the last pick of the draft, so benefited from being able to pay him a pittance (about $1m pa), whilst spreading more on rest of team. Now the QBs contract is up, and they’re going to have to pay a shed load (prob $40m+ pa) to keep him.

Meslier, quite rightly, taking pelters. But that shouldn’t mask just how easily Hull carved us open when they dared to come forward. We were shambolic at the back today. #lufc

Any Leeds fans in Glasgow know of any pubs that might show the Derby game? #lufc

Forecasted to win by 5 points btw. Both players roughly even projected points.

Kendre Miller or Thielen in the flex in half PPR?

There is no side I don’t expect us to beat at home. There is no side I expect us to beat away from home. #lufc

That’s devastatingly accurate 😆

We did. And then proceeded not to win again until March and finish outside of the Champions League places.

Scum love fest for the cup draw, is it?

Ah yes I recall the incident. Makes sense. Probably long overdue that Flashscore correct it though!

Spent the last 18 hours wondering why nobody else is losing their shit about Rodon missing Saturday. Turns out Flashscores are just a bunch of fibbers #lufc

Ok. Maybe that went for us 😆

An excellent set piece and a deflection. Feels like we so rarely get the rub of the green in these tight games #lufc

Deflection. Can’t blame him for that one

Should have been at least a yellow for that. Knew what he was doing and James was in

This Cov v Blunts game is a cracking watch. Feels like the former should be a banker on both teams to score bets going forward. Terrible at the back, great on the attack.

I'm not sure who thought this was a good idea.

Finally finished this classic tome. Only started it in July. Will now need to read some Stephen King to lighten the mood…

Not gonna lie Graham, I’m a bit jealous

When your eldest asks to go visit Peterborough you just have to jump at the chance

It was a really early kick off on a Saturday. I remember watching it and then having to go off, absolutely drained, to play football myself that afternoon.

Notts or New England?
