@TomBowenJourno Just wait till you watch the Tour de France!.. Blatant mechanical doping 😂

Can't believe someone's doing the London Marathon on a motorbike, that's got to be against the rules

@ActualNames1 There's a 'Fanny Tootle' (depends what way the wind is blowing) in the New Row Burial Ground in Blackburn.

@BrazilShirtPod Former 'sister programme' on the World Football on the World Service did a good interview with him a while back which would be worth tracking down in the archive. He'a the DoF at Aberdeen at present.

Let's get him on the pod!

@sidlowe Cos of the health issues related to his recent strokes & dementia - he's useless down one side as a consequence, cannot stand for any period of time & walks veering off line. Also seems to be wearing a form of brace on each leg to prevent 'foot drop'. Probably be dead by Easter!

Genuine question, beyond all the normal stuff… question about protocol, I suppose. Why is Trump always sitting down while everyone else stands around him? It’s a weird look, isn’t it?

@forest_fr1ends Shades of Naked Gun's 'Nice Beaver!'... 'Why thanks, I've just had it stuffed' (passes down taxidermy beaver).

- that reminds me, i hit a badger today in the car. - oh no, poor thing. - yeah, it was pretty messy — and unkempt. - unkempt?

@Peston Should Badenoch sack herself under her own rationale for hacking and doctoring website of a political opponent, or does that just come under ‘youthful exuberance’ 🤔

Kemi Badenoch’s call for Starmer to sack Reeves, for failing to register her family home when she rented it on moving to Downing Street, lowers the bar quite significantly for sackable offences by ministers. I am not certain all her shadow cabinet colleagues will thank her. The point is that there is a clear distinction between Rayner’s failure to take stamp duty advice and Reeves’s failure to register her home with the council for rent. In the case of Rayner, there was the potential for very large personal material gain. Her dismissal was inevitable. In Reeves’s case, it’s theoretically possible that her local council would have imposed conditions on her when renting. Also it is embarrassing for her that she had previously welcomed a different council’s decision to regulate renters. But she seems to have proof of her ignorance that her own council required registration. And she has apologised for not making the effort to find out for sure. The prime minister’s ethics adviser - Laurie Magnus, the morals watchdog originally appointed by a Conservative PM Rishi Sunak - has accepted her public apology as punishment enough. And her reputation has been damaged for being hasty and sloppy in her personal affairs. But should the PM “grow a backbone and sack her now”, in the excited words of a Tory statement overnight? Maybe. But if Reeves’s transgression is a sackable offence, would Badenoch sack shadow cabinet members for driving at 23 mph in a 20 mph zone, for example? Some would say speeding is a worse offence, that carries greater risk to life than what Reeves did, but at the moment the consensus would be that a minister can pay the fine and get on with the day job. Badenoch is apparently saying that almost all cock ups in a minister’s personal life should disqualify them from holding public office. Would that stipulation really give the British people the public servants they deserve, or perhaps simply deter anyone with common sense from going into politics?

@TomBowenJourno Chorley are very switched-on to this kind of thing. When teams travel up to play Bolton/ Preston/ Blackburn etc. and Chorley are away they contact the supporters associations and arrange for the coaches to use their bar & facilities for pre match drinks. Boro should do this 👍🏻

I might have to ask Mat if he knows any good stops around the Eastleigh area. #Saddlers

@sidlowe Promised a pot of gold... Delivered a crock of sh!t - Much like an awful lot in this world of late!

Well, that’s disappointing. They told me there would be a pot of gold. 😂

@BrazilShirtPod Current manager went to prison for bankrupting the local rivals!

Without mentioning what club it is, tell us something totally unique about the club you support.

@NoContextBrits Stale p!ss & flies.

@JamesHorncastle Same as the Inter centenary maglia from the ‘08 season.

Geezer CFC

@TomBowenJourno Good article 👍🏻 getting into David Conn territory: follow the money!

Morecambe FC has been up for sale for over 1,000 days. Prospective buyers have come and gone, but the background of the latest buyer, Panjab Warriors, also raises some significant questions... Read in full: open.substack.com/pub/tombowenjo…

@TomBowenJourno He's one of those players that with a bit of luck could go 'all the way' in his career.

Had the pleasure of watching Jonny Stuttle last season when he was on loan at Farnborough - including scoring twice in an 8-2 away victory! Walsall have quite a player on their hands. #StuttleAgain

@sidlowe Our spanner also has this uncanny knack... They always seem to be found in the most remote or unlikely of places!

The dog never goes out with a tennis ball, but always comes back in with one. It’s magic, you know.

@NoContextBrits The origin of the term of abuse ‘Berk’ is an abbreviation of rhyming slang; Berk being a shortened ‘Berkshire Hunt’.

@ajwhite1981 @sidlowe What’s on the plate or behind it?

@sidlowe Looks like a battered hoof.

Love these parody accounts

@sidlowe It reads as though his account has been hacked by the right honourable Sir Michael Take MP.

@SpencerHakimian @jonlis1 It’s like you’re being presided over by Ralph Wiggum 😱

“The bond market is going good. It had a little moment but I solved that problem very quickly. I am very good at that stuff.” - Trump Every single sentence is more wrong than the previous.

@supertanskiii Turning into ‘Tweedle Dumb’ & ‘Tweedle Dumber’… Either that or Humpty Dumpty & he’s about to have a great fall 🤔

Dear god, has it learned how to spawn independently?

@PeterStefanovi2 In today’s episode of both ‘no shit Sherlock’ & ‘FAFO’ 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

Oh dear
