Stupidity from Salford aka Scholes and Beckham. Karl Robinson sacked.

Yes, disgracefully sacked for taking a possibly smaller than Accy Stanley club to the play off final! 👎

Yep, I wouldn't risk a trip to the US while the Republicans are in power. That could be another six years. One could easily get turned away at immigration.

A great shame as we have several good friends there who I'd like to visit.

Aw, please don't worry!😏 Donald loves the UK and its visitors to the USA!😉

Whilst cycling through Moffat earlier in the week I was surprised to see a shop window filled with Leeds united flags, banners and other merchandise

The owner's a Leeds fan. Bit weird, but at least it's not a shrine to either of the Old Firm.

Some great news for us West Ham fans -

From what I've heard, he is the subject of a Panorama investigation.

It's on Panorama this Monday evening.
I wonder if Daniel Kretinsky will buy Sullivan's shares. 🤔

I see one of the Iraqi strikers was held for 7½ hours by US immigration and the team photographer was denied entry.

You might be thinking of Iran? Iraq are based in West Virginia and flew into O'Hare the other day.

Christian Eriksen has had another medical emergency on the pitch.
This time his pace maker has kicked in and saved his life.
But surely he must stop now. No one thought he was ever going to play again after his first heart attack in 2021. So he’s had a good run.

Don't tell NotaDoctor - he'll claim only Danes can be vikings.

It's amazing. And miles better than the usual "here we are getting on a plane" rubbish that most teams do.

David Yarrow is a seriously good photographer.

Would you hire him for your daughter's wedding?

And what do you thing the Engurrlund equivalent would/should look like?

If I could afford him, sure.

Harry Kane just about preserving his modesty with a flag, riding a lion stabbing a dragon with a halberd.

I assume it must be retirement now. He has a year to run on his Wolfsburg contract, which may (my speculation) morph into a coaching role?
