The prospect of a government-appointed ‘regulator’ for our Premier football league has caused concerns at FIFA. The proposal to have a body which SHOULD control how the teams and their owners ‘behave’, both financially and responsibly, whilst not joining new ‘superleagues’ and checking on the suitability of proposed club owners, may contravene FIFA’s article 15 – Read More-
These are the 10 important things to remember about Chelsea: 1. I fucking hate them 2. I hate them more 3. They’re shit 4. I hate them 5. They’re violent and nasty 6. They can’t even get sent off properly 7. I hate them 8. Their manager needs to make the transition from ‘bemused’ to – Read More-
The leadership battle hots up, ‘up there’ in what is currently the northernmost extremity of Great Britain, though if they get their way, that title goes to Carlisle. Possibly Newcastle, need to get a map. First we had ‘Katie-gate’, in which Kate Forbes was brutally exposed as… A CHRISITIAN!!! The worst thing you could ever – Read More-
Its the anniversary of the war in Ukraine. Sorry, the ‘special military action, NOT WAR’, war in Ukraine. Depending on which side of the Donbas you sit. Or really, which side of Putin’s mind you sit. Because if you’re inside it (and good luck with that, holy shit!!!), you’re defending your country from the hostile – Read More-
Nicola Sturgeon is ‘istry’. Gone. In all but she’s still hanging around making a nuisance of herself in that ‘dead man walking’ kind’a way. Or perhaps ‘suicidal woman walking’ as she actually quit herself. And the leadership race is hotting up. In a rather tepid, low-key, never-eard-a-none-of-em sort of ‘hotting up’. Favourite at the moment – Read More-
There’s an American doctor, (they’re ALWAYS American and everyone there who passes their 11-plus becomes a ‘doctor’), who has come up with a nutritional plan to end what she calls ‘addictive eating’ or ‘cravings’. But what I call ‘perfectly normal desire to give your body what it is naturally wanting to redress an energy imbalance’. – Read More-
I can’t tell you how happy yesterday’s football result made me… but I’m going to try. Not just to upset West Ham fans, not just to probably irritate Arsenal fans, but just because I want to due to my extreme joy at this event. Also, here’s a funny thing: my mate Bobby became a grandfather – Read More-
Buoyed by the amaaaaaazing success of ‘the best World Cup ever’ in November, possibly the ‘best World Cup ever in which more than 50,000 people died making it happen’, maybe even ‘the best World Cup ever in which freedom of expression and human rights were banned and the beer cost 20 quid a pint’, those – Read More-
For many years I’ve advocated a radical stance on diversity, inclusivity, support for marginalised minorities, particularly of a gender variety, the abolition of all statues of slavers, imperialists, colonialists, bankers, wankers, skanks, lanky people and any form of old white men. The worst kind of human. The ultimate dead end of the spectrum. And I – Read More-
She’s gone. La Sturgeon. Or, as numerous memes have alluded to this week, Le/La /Autre Sturgeon. But you can’t give credibility to memes. They’re insulting, abusive, should be banned on decency grounds and are incredibly funny. But the legacy Nicola Sturgeon leaves behind after her eight years at the helm of Britain’s most Scottish of – Read More-
