You strike me as the kind of lad who would pop in and have a polite word, asking them if they're aware and of so what the crack is. Doesn't look like they're on here. I guess it *could* be an oversight? Gutted if not.

My daughter was watching it the other day. It's inspiring for young girls, I think, although certainly dated - not sure the coach would stay in post the days ๐Ÿ˜•

Sandro Tonali is one of the best midfield players in the world right now and I will brook no dissent to that pov. Heโ€™s an absolute Ferrari of a footballer

Eleanor points out that Portland's heroes tend to be offbeat, independent creative thinkers, which explains why the city is such a ripe target; the administration is cracking down on artists, she says, "because we point out what is true." And absurd metaphors are a serious matter; when armed federal agents tackle a clarinet player in a banana costume, it draws attention to the disproportionate gap between the perceived threat and the official response. "What I love about what's happening in Portland is that we're refusing the binary of 'cower or fight," she says. โ€œAs a city of creative weirdos, we're claiming a third option: irreverence, humor, joy as resistance. And here's the thing - fascists have no counter-argument to that. They can't match wits. Theirs is not a culture of humor, because humor requires surprise and creativity, the exact opposite of control and conformity. You can't legislate against a naked bike ride or a dance party."

I have no doubt at all that we win 3-1 with tonal scoring with a low strike from the edge of the box. HWTL.

That's true and my logical head agrees, but I lack any enthusiasm for England and watch more in fear that one of ours gets injured than anything else.

Can't deny we're in a tough ethical position having only one team to support. Our local team. Unlike yourself, who seems to have eight or more?

Newcastle says no to fascism.

The far right brought a hundred or so with them, bussed from far and wide. This city turned out 1000s, from local communities, estates and streets. Geordies of all backgrounds coming together and outnumbering the purveyors of hate by some distance.

Newcastle united.

My very much English but very much not white bf is in Newcastle right now. I've been quite worried about him, but he sent me this photo this morning. I feel much better.

Anti-racist demonstrators blocking Tommy Robinsonโ€™s fascists from marching through the centre of Newcastle - successfully so far

But being kettled and apparently the police are agreeing an alternative route for the far right

Orpington's Joseph Farage fined for putting phone underneath woman's skirt at Co-op Joseph Farage has been fined ยฃ576 after he was convicted of 'upskirting'.

Just because my nephew Joseph Farage admitted he was guilty of the sexual offence of upskirting, doesnโ€™t mean all Farages are sexual offenders.

That went under the radar
