I remember watching Pep’s Barcelona side demolish Real in 2010 and turning to my mate and saying that they should show this game to every kid that ever wants to kick a ball as the blue print of how the game should be played. The way that team would retain and shift the ball, setting traps and slicing through defences, seemingly at will was an absolute joy to watch. Thing is that team (& Pep) has to an extent revolutionised the modern game, with teams setting up to try and dominate the ball, and probably becoming ‘risk averse’ as a result…, but without a fraction of the quality that Barca t

Usually by now there’ll be plenty wasps making a nuisance of themselves. Hardly seen a one.

I get that, strong urge to be near the sea though rather than being on it necessarily. Spent an incredible day on the Angus coastline last week, beaches and sea cliffs and all the fauna that comes with it. Kids will be finished with school soon so seriously considering a house move to the coast somewhere. I imagine living with a view out to sea would be incredible and so connected to the landscape and all the elements if that makes sense.

Just what you’ll need for the hottest day of the year.

Not sure Man U can afford to sack Ten Haag and his staff and bring in a new regime.., and overhaul the squad. Already sailing very close to the wind on FFP.

Another false dawn. All debate on immigration shut down again with anyone prepared to challenge the status quo vilified and labelled ‘far right’. Speaking openly about this issue or posting your opinion on SM risks your reputation, livelihood and even your liberty. Some of the protesters don’t help themselves attacking random ethnics in the street though. Wise the fcuk up.

Got careless? Always felt there was something with Christie.., same with Kelly Holmes.

One of their mother’s on TV bleating about her missing her brother’s wedding. These comments are on the money and I couldn’t have put it any better…

This is what happens when you let women out the kitchen. Oh to have the country run by white men in suits again.

Football fans are notoriously fickle, but the rollercoaster England have been on the last few weeks has been on a different level. On Sunday there were online polls to debate whether Southgate should be knighted, by Sunday night the polls were about sacking him. Only as good as your last game…

Sounds like he was in some pretty rough and difficult to access terrain. I would have thought within a few days in the heat out there a cadaver dog would have picked him up. Still, 29 days they searched and didn’t turn him up. Sounds strange but then I’m no expert in searching for corpses. At least his family have at least one answer and can bury him now.

I’d happily vote for the death penalty but it should only be used in exceptional cases and for the most heinous of crimes. A conviction must satisfy the criteria for reasonable doubt. Modern forensics etc. can often remove ANY doubt. Murder with provocation such as a jilted spouse etc. I’d still impose a custodial sentence, but murder of a stranger for or following sexual gratification and especially of kids, death penalty.., no question.

Agree with you on Bellingham, he has the makings of a hell of a player. And my ‘bottle jobs’ comment was probably a bit harsh but, whether it be individual performances or Southgate’s cautious approach, England’s big names failed to leave their mark on the tournament. I don’t even enjoy ramming failure down the throats of the average England fan (excepting maybe the 10 German bombers/boo your national anthem mob) it’s the relentless bullshit from media, with ex-players being the worst. The link below is just one example of the p!sh I am fed up paying to listen to.., a bit of humble pie wi

Attended by multi millionaire and former Labour PM Tony Blair no less. I’d imagine Keir Hardie will have turned in his grave.

Thread about the national team but change it to the league if you want. The EPL is the biggest financially.., granted, but still Bellingham opted for Spain.., CR7 went there as soon as he could.., Messi wouldn’t come to England. Real Madrid have as many EC’s as English teams combined. As for the football, I pretty much stopped watching 4 or 5 years ago.., all these risk averse tactical attritions are boring affairs for the spectator, I’d rather watch lower league or Scottish football. And as for the players, all I hear from the English media is how this might be the most talented squad ever…,

Scotland were poor.., well beaten by Germany, drew with the Swiss (you’ll remember them as you needed penalties to beat them) and sucker punched by Hungary chasing a winner. That’s about our level. England on the other hand went in as favourites, were poor in the group stage, handed a very easy run to the final versus the other half of the draw, and were lucky to get to the final with a last minute equaliser and surviving penalties. I think the only half decent performance was against a poor dutch team. Thin line my arse, England were fcuking abject this tournament.., this thread is ful

The gluttony on display at these all-inclusive hotels has to be seen to be believed.., it’s like something out of an Orwell novel. As you say the kids are the worst…, breakfast lunch and dinner, plates piles high with cakes, pancakes, waffles and doughnuts drowning in chocolate sauce and ice cream. And the waste is downright immoral.

Think you’ll find that it’s you that’s being bred out your own country. Even a team half full of immigrants couldn’t bring it home. Didn’t you flee England?

Thread about the Euros and you started the hate on the Scots. I hope you’re f***ing sick for weeks with this failure. For the record I’d don’t hate or dislike English folks, some of my favourite and most loved people on this planet are English. I just love seeing the arrogant entitled ones getting their comeuppance. Of all the large European nations, England are the biggest hype-jobs and bottle merchants by a country mile. One world cup where every game you played was at Wembley. Contrast that with the wins in major tournaments of Germany (8), Italy (6), France (4), Spain (5). Seria

Shot your bolt a bit early. England got an easy ride and rode a lot of luck to get to the final. Definitely nowhere near even the second best team in the competition.

Get that right fcukin up you.

Were the USA millimetres away from all out civil war?

Demolition job. Hopefully the first part of the Spanish double.
