When Badenoch became Leader of the Opposition. She thinks the sun shines out Trump's backside so expects us to follow his line.
Adolf Hitler attacked Czechoslavakia without declaring war
Hitler invaded Austria without declaring war.
Hitler invaded Poland and France and the USSR without warning.
Donald Trump invaded Venezuela without warning, he attacked Iran without warning.
oranges and oranges.
They are useless but not corrupt. As difficult as it is there are some who are worse! Hooper & Kavanagh for starters!
Three of the Premier League's most useless refs at St James Park tomorrow night! Bankes (ref), Robinson (4th Official) & Tierney (VAR)! @no1lino.bsky.social
They are only a few id recognise from 1971-2 - I'd definitely recognise Jack Taylor, Clive Thomas, Pat Partridge (who I've met), Ken Burns, Norman Burtenshaw and Ken Baker (his 1st of 16 seasons as a Football Leage referee retiring in 1987) and a few other refs who went to referee the FA Cup Final
Would you have recognised him? I know I wouldn't have!
Correct! He retired early in 1972 to become secretary of Sheffield United.
1971/72 Chelsea V Arsenal - a FIFA #referee from that era for @quinnassociate.com @refbooks.bsky.social @refereeretro.bsky.social to identify.
The decision he made when he angered Newcastle was he sent off Habib Beye for a perfectly timed tackle which led to a penalty after 10 minutes against Man City, we managed to hold them to a 2-2 draw. Styles got suspended by the PGMOL and partially as a result retired at the end of that season.
I think every ref in the history of the game has upset every club he has reffed at some point! 😆
Cornerkick decisions to be reviewed by VAR(but not if a goal-kick has been awarded!)2nd yellow cards to be reviewed as well.Also a similar measure at throwins/goalkicks/corners if there is timewasting tactics as the8second rule where a corner is awarded when the goalkeeper is guilty of timewasting.
I hope you are correct in the assertion that Farage will not get the keys to No10.
Trump is the one who has trashed it not Starmer. Starmer is 100% correct to refuse Trump permission to use British bases to launch attacks on Iran.
David Elleray was an excellent referee in my opinion, but he's useless as a Football Lawmaker, the biggest nonsense being the handball Law. Styles was a decent ref as well, though he did upset us Toon supporters on occasions!
The US/UK relationship has already been trashed by Trump. I think Starmer should come out directly and say he wont support Trump in his illegal actions against Iran.
You might end up with Mike Ashley as your owner. He was a rotten owner when he was at Newcastle. But yous have had an awful time for the last few years. Its sad to see what's happening, Sheffield W should be better than this.
If I remember correctly though Ferguson had the last laugh Man U left with 3 points. Hughes' tantrum was still the best! If he threw a tantrum like that when he was a kid I'm sure he would have had a sore a*se after it!
I remember Ferguson once throwing a tantrum and the 4th Official couldn't wait to tell Uriah Rennie who to the delight of 50,000 Geordies sent him to the stands!
Indeed they are! I dont remember McClaren taking it out on a water bottle!
@no1lino.bsky.social This was one of the funniest things I've seen at Newcastle! Mark Hughes throwing his coat in a temper tantrum after Stoke got two red cards in a few minutes!
Why should Starmer resign when the allegations against Mandelson are from when Brown was Prime Minister?
Correct he was a schoolteacher.
Correct-it is Bill Gow.William John Gow to give his full name.I believe he was initially from Birmingham and moved to Wales and was a Welsh FIFA referee for many years-he reffed the Newcastle V Rangers Fairs Cup Semi-Final when Rangers supporters invaded the pitch to try to get the match abandoned.
A woman who votes for him is voting for a misogynist.
Because Iran is a threat to global peace. Mind saying that the biggest threat to global peace is Donald Trump.

Put him on Federal Death Row in Indiana
I think he was more worthy of a WC Final than the other 2 who got it! Klein should have got the 1982 Final instead of Coelho and Agnolin was by far the best ref at the 1986 Finals, he should have got that Final instead of Arpi Filho.
The Brazilian Wright who reffed the England V West Germany Semi-Final was decent as well!
The others named were excellent refs as well - Agnolin was in the same situation as Courtney, Italy got to the Semi-Finals so like Courtney his tournament was over. I admit I forgot about Fredriksen,he was very worthy of the Final as well,Vautrot was top class as well.He took no nonsense whatsoever.
