The entire blackout needs reviewing!

I’d say that questionnaire is a bit guiding?

At this point go and beg the Premier League for a points deduction. We’ll have had our punishment then and we can actually wipe the slate clean for next season.

I’m not dismissing his ability, as he’s clearly talented. However, the reason many players will take a quick fix to money is football is ruthless. For every Bellingham, we can all name players that have fallen after being hailed as Wonderkids and generational talents. Sonny Pike, Alan Halilovic, Keirrison, Gai Assulin, Kerlon, Sebastian Deisler, Sergi Samper, Josh McEachran, Michael Johnson, Denilson, Bojan, Hachim Mastour, John Bostock, Ravel Morrison, Adriano, Freddy Adu. Every academy will have players that are special, before we had Monga, we had Nyoni. Football has levels and ability is only a fraction of what gets you to a level. The standard at Championship standard alone is in the top 10 divisions in the world. So if you’re playing in that, you’re most likely in the top 20,000 players in the world. You also need the right attitude, drive and network around you to be a success. What made Bellingham special is a mix of the above. If you read his story, the sacrifices his parents made for both Jobe and Jude is unique. They’re grounded players and those types of players are old school but generally more relatable. You can’t blame any player for leaving this dumpster fire of a club in its current state if he can make life changing money elsewhere, in a better working environment. He could get injured like Alves or Braybrooke did tomorrow and never play again. Football is short and even dropping 1% puts you so, so far behind.

It’s a bit like when the in-laws turn up at the weekend. You just want some peace and quiet and they’re spouting off.

Other than the gold selling bit. That was a numpty move and he gets a bit of a black mark for that. Even as a conservative supporter, I can appreciate that he did a decent job. Maybe that’s more that fact I’m maybe centre right though, which is where you’d argue maybe Blair was.

I didn’t run a single 5k in 2024, as persistent injuries and more walking away from sport due to work commitments etc. However now my work / life balance has changed, I’ve picked up C25K again and I’m building this back up. Man am I slow though! You lose so much natural fitness when you’re past and have spent the last year eating free buffets and sat on your rear end.

So are we saying we still don’t know who shot JFK? Here’s a thought, maybe they were aiming for his wife from the window and missed. Thus starting the biggest “who dunnit” in world history?

A really bizarre one for me today!! Wordle 1,375 2/6 🟨🟨🟩🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 It took me ages to work out what the work was though! It’s 3AM …..

I think it’s difficult sometimes, as so many outside influences generate the butterfly effect. I’d maybe lump her into the same pool as Lamont, Hunt and Osbourne. Rishi and Brown divide opinions on people as well. I don’t think either did a bad job given the circumstances really.

I’d have Reeves as a distant 2nd though. She and this government aren’t exactly great.

I feel the same way as you. I think it cuts that little bit deeper having children. It’s a rough but excellent watch.

So instead of sending asylum seekers to Rwanda, this labour government wants to send them to the Balkands now.

If we sell now, then we have to pay loyalty bonuses. If players ask for a transfer, we don’t. That bill, will run into millions. This is why clubs wait.

Okay, so I’m after a 60 inch, wall mounted TV. Any suggestions?
