@YTJourno Personallly I’d like to see Antoine Semenyo end up with a winners medal. From a local college, through the ranks at Bristol City and tearing up the Premier League. Seems like one of footballs good guys too.

So who do we want to see lose this one most? 115 v Bought it All FC is at 3pm at least. #FACup

@TheExiledRobin Just seems a bit odd that with Skubala it was widely reported that we triggered a release clause & went about it all above board & with JM we would approach direct & ignore Pompey. There must be rules to follow & for a brand new sporting director to ignore them seems a risk.

@Dan_Carleton That’s what happens as fairly standard. Certainly did with us and Manning last year - the club usually only approached when there’s a deal to potentially be done

A fair number of the first few points stack up with other bits I’ve heard off a small group of usually semi-reliable sources….make of that what you will

@RobVDS70 @Truth12123 @SkyNews @Baddiel @cathynewman David is spot on. In hindsight KS had no chance with right wing media and social media on his case from day one. Most X gobshites couldn’t tell you why they dislike him, it’s just the trendy bandwagon thing to do. people that never said a word about the Tories.

@Truth12123 @SkyNews @Baddiel @cathynewman Let's be honest though, and I am definitely not a Starmer fan, but social media had already decided he was the worst Prime Minister within a month of his election. Baddiel has a point.

'It's a bit like what is happening in football - everyone hates them if they haven't had immense success within five games.' @Baddiel tells Sky's @cathynewman that 'a normal bloke or woman that is ok to lead the country, is not good enough anymore' in today's culture.

@TheExiledRobin QPark car park in the Mailbox do an evening rate 6pm - 2am for about £9. You can book ahead online .It’s 10-15 mins walk from there to Brindley Place / the Arena. Plenty of food & drink spots around there. Decent safe car park, some of the other Birmingham multi story’s are awful

Slightly odd request, but if anyone knows Birmingham centre well, can you recommend a best non-extortionate place for me to park for 5hrs on Saturday eve? Also, somewhere not too busy that does food that I can watch evening football. Daughter is off to Louis Tomlinson gig at FT!

@BristolCity @fever_uk A laughable second half

Full-time. 🤝 | @fever_uk

@thehodge19 @alexwickham Are you suggesting he shouldn’t wait to know the facts before correcting the record? He’s already been accused of lying by not bringing up information he very well might have not known. Having all pertinent info seems essential before further comment?

@alexwickham Everyone seems to be missing the fact is that Starmer found out on Tuesday, however did not correct the record in the House on Wednesday at PMQs. He is breaking the ministerial code by not doing so. I dare say he will claim he was waiting for the full facts from an investigation

EXCLUSIVE: A team of Cabinet Office officials accessed a highly secure portal last Friday to review UK Security Vetting conclusions on Peter Mandelson as part of the Humble Address motion. What they found was conclusions of a top secret report showing security officials had raised objections about Mandelson’s appointment. On making further enquiries it then became clear to them that Olly Robbins had been presented with the conclusions of the UKSV process by a senior Foreign Office security official who Bloomberg has agreed not to name. It appeared Robbins had not necessarily seen the full details of Mandelson’s vetting, only the conclusions and what are internally called “residual issues”, sources say. Nonetheless, Robbins and the senior FCDO security official had agreed that despite the negative conclusions they would go ahead and grant him DV clearance, sources say. The senior FCDO security official has since left the Foreign Office. It means the government was left in an extraordinary situation this week where not a single member of staff still in post at FCDO had seen Mandelson’s full vetting report. When Starmer found out on Tuesday he was furious and then on Thursday sacked Robbins. A source described the situation as so opaque it was Kafkaesque. However an ally of Robbins points to the 2010 Constitutional Reform and Governance Act which states that ministers do not have powers over national security vetting. People familiar with the matter who spoke to Bloomberg today described an internal mess bordering on farce. The crux of the problem, some sources argue, is that Starmer had made clear he wanted Mandelson to be appointed and that he was relaxed about the publicly available information about his links to Epstein, Russia and China. That created a climate in which Robbins felt he was doing the PM’s bidding by clearing Mandelson. Ironically, Robbins’ defence against Starmer’s decision to sack him also appears to help the PM because it tallies with Starmer’s position that he was unaware of Mandelson’s vetting issues and therefore could not have intervened. Cabinet ministers are tonight reserving judgment on whether Starmer can survive this. First he needs to get through next week, then the locals. Most political sources we spoke to think Starmer can tough it out to the locals, but think it will factor into ministers’ and MPs’ calculations afterwards. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

@PolitlcsUK @HJS_Org Old retired Tory says what?

🚨 NEW: A retired army Major says Keir Starmer’s "failure" to fund the military is causing higher food and petrol bills "Britain lacks the escort and mine-countermeasure capabilities to credibly help keep [the Strait of Hormuz] open" [@HJS_Org]

@BristolCity Embarrassing. The bloke has been doing the job with his hands tied behind his back. He tells Lansdown a few truths and you cut him loose. What a pathetic club.

We can announce that Gerhard Struber has been relieved of his duties as Bristol City Head Coach. Roy Hodgson will take charge of the Men’s First Team until the end of the season, while the club will task the incoming Sporting Director with appointing a permanent Head Coach for the 2026/27 campaign. The club’s recent performances have not met expectations and therefore Struber and Assistant Head Coach Bernd Eibler will leave with immediate effect.

@BristolCity @fever_uk Time to start pushing those £600 season tickets isn’t it?

We exit the #EmiratesFACup. 🤝 | @fever_uk

@millarddvd @TristanCorkPost They don’t seem to understand that you need tried and tested affordable, efficient & reliable public transport in place before they squeeze the available roadways further. We’ve got First Bus who are none of those and have a monopoly in the city.

@TristanCorkPost It’s insane. More & more houses means more & more cars & yet somehow the council think it will mean more public transport and cyclists. It simply won’t! The centre has been ruined. Temple meads, Victoria st & Bristol bridge ruined. Portway next. Lunatics in charge of the asylum

The big changes to Bedminster Bridge - new plans from the council show the traffic flows, no-turns, new cycle lanes, bus lanes and pavements. I took a deep dive into this & worked out where drivers will and won't be able to go when this is done. bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-n…

@BS3Rob @BristolCity Joe Williams beside him in the next bed.

Rob Dickie inherits the curse. Never change @BristolCity 🚑

@BristolCity At least we doubled our money on him ….🙄

📣 We can confirm that Fally Mayulu has completed a permanent transfer to FC Arouca. The club wishes him all the very best for the future.

Thought for the weekend; Every mediocre track you hear on radio is robbing you of hearing something great ..of which there are tens of thousands that exist. You will never get time back. Ditto stations hammering the same old tracks until you end up sick of them.. @OfficialHuey

@BristolCity ‘The important travel information’ is traffic is heavy leaving Ashton Gate, expect delays. Incoming, movement is light and the roads are clear

Back at the Gate on Saturday! 🏟️ Get all the important travel information: 👇

@JackDHallett @WBAReport I don’t think he’s a scapegoat at all. He gets criticism as he makes mistakes & often looks a bit of a liability. The clip is the worst of the worst but each game he has a few flaps in him he gets away with. You could also have a clip of him aimlessly kicking the ball out of play

@WBAReport Personally, he’s been used as a scapegoat by the majority of the fan base. Don’t get me wrong I can’t see him being a promotion sides number 1. Shot stopping is decent but everything else you are kinda left wanting abit more

Interesting highlight reel for incoming goalie Max O’Leary… 😬 All the Bristol City fans are saying he’s absolutely awful btw. Is this another data-driven signing? #WBA

@htafc ANNOUNCE BOREDOM !

Liam Manning has been appointed Head Coach of Huddersfield Town, taking control of the Men’s First Team with immediate effect having signed a long-term contract with the Club. Welcome to the Terriers, Liam! #htafc

@Steve_Cockerham @BenObeseJecty @Keir_Starmer I wasn’t talking about who ‘started it’. I was pointing out the hypocrisy of a Tory MP suggesting that the Asylum package was too ‘generous’ when the Conservatives set the levels and they haven’t been made any more generous since the 24 election.

@Dan_Carleton @BenObeseJecty @Keir_Starmer Who cares who started it. Probably Tony Bliar under labour. Whoever it was sort it. Change the rules.

There will be no golden ticket to settling in the UK. Settlement is earned by contributing to our society, not by paying a people smuggler to cross the Channel. I am determined to make our asylum system fairer and smash the business model of criminal people smugglers.

@UKRedSoxFans @RedSox @espn @WEEI Woah. That’s shit .

In case any UK fans have missed it, the start time for tonight's game has changed- now starting at 1:08am! @RedSox @espn @WEEI #tremendouslylockedin

@BenObeseJecty @Keir_Starmer The last review and increase of asylum seeker support took place in July 23 when the UK had a …**checks notes**….Conservative Government. Maybe you should pipe down and sit this one out eh?

@Keir_Starmer Maybe you could start by not advertising such a generous asylum package?
