Mansfield lost 2-1 to Arsenal today. And honestly, that is fine. The scoreline was never really the point. Let me tell you what actually happened at Field Mill today, because I am sure you would want to know. Nigel Clough, son of the great Brian Clough(if you know him), walked out as Mansfield manager to face Arsenal in the FA Cup fifth round. His father was one of the greatest managers English football has ever produced, he won two league titles, two European Cups over his coaching career. But the one thing Brian Clough never won in his entire career was the FA Cup. The closest he got was the 1991 final, where Forest lost to Tottenham, with Nigel himself playing in the attack. The last FA Cup match Brian Clough ever managed before he retired was against Arsenal in February 1993. Forest lost 2-0. Nigel played that day too. Today, 32 years later, his son stood in the same competition against the same opponent, this time as the manager. The full circle was not lost on anyone who knew the history. And Mansfield made Arsenal work for it. A League One side sitting 16th in their division, 54 places away from Arsenal, winless in nine league games, gave one of the best teams in Europe a proper game at Field Mill. They had already beaten Sheffield United 4-3 at Bramall Lane and knocked out Premier League Burnley to get here. They belong on that stage...not because of anything but because of the magic of the FA Cup. They lost 2-1. But any Mansfield fan under 60 saw their club in the FA Cup fifth round for the first time in their lifetime today. That is football heritage. The FA Cup did not deliver the upset today. But it delivered something just as valuable. It delivered a story that I am sure will be told at Field Mill for a very long time. That is what this competition does. Every single time. And Mansfield would not have had the chance without the FA Cup. My name is Ajoje. I am a FIFA Licensed Agent and International Sports Lawyer. I write on the Law and Business of Football, a lot.

@LovelyGeezer65 Probably Cologne. Their mascot is a goat, kölsch is the local beer and the sticker is designed like a beer mat where the server will tally how many you have so they know how much to charge when you get the bill

This is honestly one of the most chilling things I've ever seen. They saw the fire spreading on the ceiling, and instead of evacuating the DJ kept the music playing as they kept dancing, laughing, and recording death approaching them. Disaster and death are commodifed content.

New video shows fire spreading at bar in Swiss ski resort, with guests failing to react. At least 40 people died

Witnessed something incredible at the Amsterdam train station yesterday Fat and loud American tourist was trying to buy a water bottle for €4.50 Threw a €5 bill on the counter and started walking away ""Keep the change man" said in a typical annoying Californian accent "We don't do tips here. This isn't America" cashier responded The American tried to leave again but luckily security blocked the exit "You didn't get your receipt for tax purposes" "What?" Store manager appeared with a form "Did you attempt to give our cashier extra money?" "That's unreported income. He has to declare it now. Pay social contributions. It becomes €0.24 after tax" The American was baffled "Bro but in the US—" "In the US, workers beg for tips because they're underpaid. Here, we pay living wages" manager swiftly interrupted him They made him take his €0.50 back and quickly filed an incident report for "attempted tax circumvention" This is what a properly functioning society looks like

Seems like a good time of year to remind people that Elf is the worst film ever made. And to be included in the top 100 comedy films of all time is ironically laughable. Dragging my bollocks through shards of glass would be funnier than watching this for a second time
Variety@Variety

The 100 Greatest Comedy Movies of All Time: #Elf Will Ferrell’s childlike earnestness in delivering the film’s indelibly daft lines — “You sit on a throne of lies!,” “Son of a nutcracker!” — turned “Elf” into a high-concept classic and cemented its place as a Christmas perennial.

@WomblesDream Bought one this morning very easily. Theres always a bit of un necessary panic for these games. I guess lack of transport on NYD has put many people off though
