@swanabi It would be greatly appreciated if you could not spread the word about how good Lawlor is, please! We would like to keep him at Cardiff for as long as possible. Please tell everyone he's unprofessional, calamitous, and has been seen leaving nightclubs at 4am before a game!

Still sulking after last night and I'm not ready to fully focus on the positives BUT how bloody impressive is Dylan Lawlor. Confident and composed... very excited to see him continue to develop. *Reverts back to huffing and puffing*

@Savigma Nobody who steps up to take a penalty in such circumstances should ever be criticised for missing. Fair play to them for having the courage to do it. Johnson should never have been on the pitch to take one, though. Once again, that's on Bellamy.

BTW I don’t think for a second any Wales fans (at least with real profile pictures #bots) will be hounding Brennan Johnson & Neco for those missed penalties. So I don’t think they need to be pandered about it, it wasn’t their fault we bottled a 1-0 lead and they’ll know that.

In all the depression of this morning, it's a small consolation to know we witnessed arguably one of the greatest saves by a Welsh goalkeeper ever last night.

@dantyte If it's any consolation, after the physical battering Bosnia gave us, I couldn't see us beating Italy on Tuesday, even if we won last night. That's what I'm telling myself anyway! 😭

That feels ten times worse this morning. The World Cup is transformational for the vibe of the nation and my kids now have to have a summer like I had in 94: a USA WC we should have qualified for and all the positivity that brings in dark times.

@thebarryhorns To be fair, it's only recently that our subs at Cardiff haven't had a huge impact on games. Most of the season, the subs have had a positive impact.

Wales eerily similar to Cardiff. Manager has got them playing great football. Great spirit in the camp. Can't seem to impact games positively when using the bench.

21-month-old Jawad Abu Nassar was detained alongside his father by Israeli forces in central Gaza — and returned to his family ten hours later, alone. Doctors found wounds on his legs consistent with cigarette burns and signs of torture. The Israeli military denies abusing the child, and says his father — who remains missing — was a Hamas member who used him as a human shield. It has not publicly provided evidence to support that claim. Watch the full report from @sparkomat ⬇️. Warning: contains some distressing images. youtube.com/watch?v=kbc7RI…

@Danielprice92 No subs in extra time either, especially when Johnson was blowing and anonymous all game.

@SteveDayWriting Sorba coming on for the last 10 mins of normal time is baffling!

It’s bad when even Swansea fans know bringing Cullen on was a bad choice. Bellamy just fascinated with being correct about his decisions in my opinion. Bellamy’s football is clearly better but the same issues as page. No idea what to do in games.

So now we know, Farage is too frightened to appear on QT in front of his own constituents. He has lied about rules preventing him from appearing. No surprise!

@Danielprice92 Totally agree mate and it seems we're in the overwhelming majority. I just don't get how anyone with any experience of football at any level can prefer Harris over Broadhead, Koumas, or Sorba.

@SteveDayWriting He’s like a youth manager during the game. Figuring out how to get his favorites on the field. Harris and Cullen shouldn’t be in the 23 let alone the first on the pitch.

@films_that Yeah, sure!

@SteveDayWriting Steve, can we send you a DM about this please?

What is a film that YOU THINK is underrated or under seen? Comment below and we’ll add it to our list!

Something new and uncomfortable is happening on parts of the British right. Religion is being rediscovered. Not as faith. As a political weapon. 1. Figures like Nigel Farage, Robert Jenrick and Tommy Robinson are increasingly framing politics in civilisational terms. Christianity vs. something else, Britain as a religious identity under threat. 2. But this isn’t a revival of faith. It’s a repurposing of it. Christianity is being used less as a belief system and more as a cultural marker. A way of drawing lines around identity. 3. That matters because it is, at its core, selective. The language of “Christian values” appears most often in opposition to immigration, to Islam, to social change. It is rarely accompanied by any serious engagement with the actual religion itself. 4. Genuine faith is inconvenient. It asks for consistency, humility, moral discipline. Political rhetoric is not. It is flexible, opportunistic and used when useful. 5. Which is why the current trend feels less like Reform have found God and more like hypocrisy. Religion is being used as shorthand for belonging, not as a guide to conduct. 6. There is also a clear political incentive. Framing issues in civilisational or religious terms raises the stakes instantly. It turns policy debates into existential struggles, where compromise looks like surrender. The irony is obvious. Many of the loudest voices invoking Christianity are not known for deep religious observance. The appeal isn’t theological. It’s tribal. 7. And that has consequences. Once politics is framed in these terms, it becomes harder to have serious discussions about policy such as migration, integration and housing because everything is recast as identity conflict. It also risks degrading religion itself. When faith becomes a political prop, it loses credibility as a moral force. Religion has always had a place in British public life. But there is a difference between faith shaping politics and politics exploiting faith. What we are seeing now looks much more like the latter.

@Cymru @carling @LiamJCullen @tomking I'm not sure you could have chosen a worse lager to partner with!

@DarranPearce @callumtaylorbfc The nagging issue for me is that I just can't see them making this decision if they're top half of the table. Spencer always struck me as someone who couldn't take losing very well. Probably something that's made him successful as a businessman.

@SteveDayWriting @callumtaylorbfc Yeah I don't see how they can comeback from this to be honest. Unless he's hoping that someone with wealth is going to get involved

So confirmed that they can't afford it anymore. Not really sure how he thinks he is going to generate more interest than there already is.

@callumtaylorbfc @DarranPearce It was definitely an idea based on a foundation of sand. I was never a fan of the name and how they approached it, but I respected it was their thing and Spencer has done an incredible job with his YouTube stuff down the years. I can see this being the beginning of the end.

@DarranPearce I always felt like that would be the way cos his fan base was mostly kids when he was big in the ‘YouTube world’ but even he isn’t involved as much in that part of things now. Was always goin to die down when kids got older and went to their local team / dads teams etc.

RT if you would never vote Reform UK!

The offence for which she was jailed falls under Section 19(1) of the Public Order Act 1986. The PM at the time that law was passed - a certain Margaret Thatcher

Gaza. Completely flattened and destroyed. ▪️Over 70,000 dead. ▪️Over 20,000 children dead. ▪️90% of residential buildings destroyed or damaged. There is no justification for this. None whatsoever.

Israel is wiping out critical bridge after critical bridge in South Lebanon. Civilians can’t flee. Ambulances can’t reach the wounded. Entire communities are cut off from food, medicine, and essential supplies. This is intentional. This is a crime against humanity.

One day, Donald Trump will die, and his supporters will try to punish the people who say things like this.
