As a football fan I genuinely don’t understand the fuss about the Ballon d’Or. Never have, never will.
I can honestly not think of anything more tedious than an overhyped popularity contest.

Not convinced Staveley / PCP acquisition of West Ham is actually dead - Would be interesting to see what happened if she came back in at say £750m. She’d only have acquire DS and TS’s shares to get the 51% controlling interest for only £382.5m… 👀

West Ham selling Diouf wouldn’t be the end of the World, but they need to get cute and do what other clubs do.
He’s 21 and he’s not going to be stopping at Brentford for more than 1 or 2 years - Better to take £10m less now and get a clause in for 20% of the next sale. Could be worth another £20m.

Watching Infantino desperately trying to sweep everything under the carpet, only for UEFA to keep coming back even more determined is actually becoming very, very funny.

If David Sullivan is insistent on disregarding all advice and attending tomorrow’s West Ham game, the Board should simply lock him out.
It’d be interesting to see how much he fancies taking a seat amongst the general supporters…

Well said UEFA. Keep the pressure up!
You know... That slippery crook Infantino is doing wonders for unity in Europe.
Maybe he should award himself the next FIFA Peace Prize? 🤣

It’s abundantly obvious exactly who put Infantino up to this, and the lack of support now is absolutely deafening. 🤣

Re West Ham transfers.
I’m convinced the silence is simply due to the new regime stopping the leaks.
The so-called ITKs can’t tell their Patreons they’ve been cut off, it’s bad for business.
That doesn’t mean that everyone inside the club is doing sweet FA. There will be deals getting lined up.

Honestly starting to believe UEFA will not be FIFA members in five years time.
Infantino is a grotesque despot, if we can’t separate him from FIFA then we need to separate ourselves from it.

The very best feature of the football season in the last four years is when all the Arsenal fans, the same ones who’ve spent all season screaming about how great they are, suddenly start getting all offended and ask people to explain why everyone hates them and wants them to lose. 👨🏻🍳 👌🏼

Plenty of female pundits working regularly in both men’s and women’s football coverage.
Remarkable that it’s never occurred to Eni Aluko that the reason she’s been frozen out is that nobody wants to work with her, precisely because she keeps coming out with militant victim-wallowing tripe like this.

West Ham have always survived going down because they were a proper club with a fortress stadium and an East End survivalist spirit.
Sadly none of that is the case any more. Customers in a half empty athletics bowl.
A great football club destroyed by one thieving, incompetent goon.

Sigur Ros at the Royal Albert Hall.
I’ve been listening to this band for 20+ years, never seen them play live before tonight. They were incredible. Incredible.
Gig finished 3 hours ago, still in an Uber now. Had a nightmare trying to get home and I wouldn’t change a second of it.
What a concert.

In the pub carrying 3 pints, my mate came up behind me and pulled my pants down. Undies came down too. Roar of laughter went up. A few weeks later spotted him filling up at the petrol station. I snuck behind him and pulled his shorts down. It wasn't him. Got in my car & drove off
