National League 3Up bid takes step forward and gains Nandy backing Culture secretary Lisa Nandy has backed the National League’s 3Up campaign for a third promotion place into the English Football League.

Imps Boss ‘Unlikely’ To Be Swayed By Huddersfield Interest Journalist Pete O'Rourke has confirmed what I suggested earlier today - that Michael Skubala is unlikely to leave the Imps for Huddersfield Town. The Terriers sacked Lee Grant yesterday, yet another boss they have got rid of, following their 3-1 defeat against Burton Albion. Very early reports suggested that they were interested in Skubala, but like me being interested in owning a Ferrari, it doesn't look like it's going to happen.

The right thing to do. Collo made a huge comntribution in the second half of last season and a brilliant character to have around the place.

Since last night, 16,800 fans have cancelled their FIFA World Cup 2026 tickets.

New for @josimarfootball.bsky.social. And depressing. Correspondence between the Premier League and the British government suggests that elite English football clubs will be allowed to pursue commercial relationships with illegal betting operators in the future.

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

Make it viral.

Excellent podcast, Gary and Chris. Interesting stats and great understanding of the way we play and roles of certain players in that system.

Silly transfer rumors already started and the window isn't even open.

It's really not difficult to spot what's made up nonsense.

Great quote! 🙌

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Warren Buffet said goodbye today. His final thoughts in his farewell letter:

Silence over Sudan: why do Manchester City’s owners get away with so much? Two midweek matches in England had a backdrop of war and geopolitics, but only one drew large protests

Manchester City play a game of football today. Most of us will be watching. Which makes sense. What doesn’t make sense is why so few care about City’s owner playing an active role in a genocide so gruesome it can be seen from space. By @barneyronay.bsky.social
