Trump just held a press conference about war with Iran, and spent much of it talking about drapes and his ballroom. I guess those are the drapes of wrath???

I think a few times he didn't. He is one of those players who flatters. Has the aptitude, clearly...
02.03.2026 00:03 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Brilliant. Hope you got the round in pal. @goldbergradio.bsky.social
01.03.2026 17:36 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I spoke to Tony a couple of weeks ago. Unless something has dramatically changed he won't be managing anyone any time soon.
01.03.2026 16:57 β π 3 π 1 π¬ 1 π 0Absolutely zero chance. He isn't going anywhere any time soon
01.03.2026 15:10 β π 2 π 1 π¬ 1 π 0Totally. Ghouls is about right
01.03.2026 13:21 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Yes, that is definitely an issue. But there are also many within that demographic who are just decent people, desperate to be represented by a party that chimes with their aspirations and beliefs.
01.03.2026 13:21 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0This shouldn't need saying, but here we are. Labour playing kiss chase with the (worst) kind of people who will never vote for them, while pissing off their traditional heartlands.
01.03.2026 13:06 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 3 π 0Absolutely. One thing recruitment data won't measure is your left-back not wanting the ball, or your central midfielder shirking away from receiving the ball in a tight place. Too much of that in our side. These aren't bad footballers per se. But too many are on Easy Street, with no moral fibre
01.03.2026 10:44 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0Penny dropping among some that these #wba players are rancid and rotten. Yes, some poor managers too... but what about the cowards on the pitch? Because that's what they are
28.02.2026 22:59 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I hope they get relegated.

28.02.2026 15:00 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0@carlosourjackal.bsky.social thoughts on today's game?
28.02.2026 14:56 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 4 π 0Surely they keep the proceeds of matchday revenue?
28.02.2026 14:56 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Somebody high up in the game once told me that any club that makes a profit is a failing club.
28.02.2026 13:20 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0How the hell does a Premier League club - operating in the most cash-rich environment possible- get itself into such a mess, not least having effectively secured a tidy deal to get a 'free stadium' along its journey? One day historians will look back & shake their heads at what football has created

We will be very much talking 1986, & all about the survival of a football club
By whom?
