A Republic, if you can keep it.

Farage: epic grifter

I know we're going to pick up some stick because of the amount of times we gave the ball away in our own half and how hard work we made of that, however, if we finish our chances that could be out of sight before half time. Massive chances missed from Nick, Murphy and then Bruno and even Elanga

If we can stop gifting them the ball around our box well be fine. But then again, they have Iwobi who loves a goal against us. #nufc

Farage worked for the Russian state - Russia today

Russia wanted a weaker, more divided UK & Europe

Farage secured a Brexit which gave 10 years of economic decline & political turmoil for the UK & caused division with our allies.

Don't vote for them pretending you're a patriot

The description of Labour under Keir Starmer as 'low fat Farage' is bang on the money from @zackpolanski.bsky.social.
Notice how he actually answers questions too.
What a radical concept for politicians to follow.

So Gary Neville is apparently a traitor despite employing 600 Mancunians, paying all his taxes and opening his hotel to front line workers during COVID lockdowns.

Sounds like much more of a patriot than those who criticising him who just spend their time talking the UK down.

Stephen is so consistently funny, but this is especially strong 👇😆

Same old Captain U-Turn

“At the next election, we will present a rigorous and fully-costed manifesto.” he said that last time…

Same for the women's team too. Maybe its a club thing

His arm is vertical. Not in a natural position.

Fair point 😂

Barnes is shite though

They lack any sort of threat going forward. All passes are sideways and backwards. Its so easy to play against. Very frustrating

Random qn, but does anyone know the best place to send letters to players? My daughter (5) sent a letter and picture she drew (of bruno as a unicorn "brunicorn") to the stadium around March, and she's pretty gutted he's not replied yet. Just wondering if there's somewhere better to send to? #nufc

Never mind that, we limited one of the best teams in europe to basically 2 (1 and 1/2?) chances without playing *that* well. The only difference was how clinical both teams were. That should be enough for some positivity 😁

We've just played Barca in a game where, really, they've created very little. Can't be starting Gordon as a 9 but we can definitely make it to the next phase with one of wissa or woltemade up top

Social media post: TMZ @TMZ Donald Trump skips the Kennedy Center's vigil for Charlie Kirk ... choosing instead to enjoy a weekend away at his golf club in New Jersey. Matt Binder @MattBinder how disrespectful. let's get this guy fired from his job.

Yes, by ALL means, let's do that.

I seem to recall the right storming the Capitol on January 6th and beating police officers with the U.S. flag.

Vote Reform........

...... and get the Tories !

If you hated the Tories last time, why on earth would you want them back in an even more toxic form next time ?

UPEND THE ESTABLISHMENT, by voting for a party composed entirely of rejects from the oldest party in the country that was in power for 14 years. 😂

Reform UK increasingly look like the Tories just ran off stage, then ran back on wearing a comedy glasses-nose-moustache disguise.

Alternate headline: Johnson Lied.

Farage dodged parliament, went to the US, slagged off the UK, lied to Congress, grifted for donations and hoped to persuade the US to punish us for the Online Safety Act. And got his arse handed back to him.
You’d think our ‘patriotic’ media would go nuts. But no. Some quiet mumbling. Beyond feeble.

On the same day in the Telegraph:

Since this is apparently a resigning matter, I’ll just leave this here…

So our military just bombed a boat in international waters and extrajudicially killed suspected drug traffickers without so much as a conversation, let alone a trial?
Then posted it on social media?

And we’re all supposed to just trust their account?

Joelinton to go through Greenwood 🙏

Does anyone know when the pink nufc goalkeeper shirt comes out? My daughters been after it since she saw it. That must have been a couple of months ago because it was before Isak thing kicked off as she said she wanted him on the back of it. 😂
