Duncan Grant - 🇺🇦 Stand with Ukraine

@Bmtaufiq @madeinbwera It's not Man U's own, it's about West Virginia written by an American over 50 years. Like yours, most club songs have been borrowed from someone who had no connection to the club ('You'll never walk alone", for example) but The Angel is about Arsenal's manor: Islington.

@madeinbwera 😃😄🤣😀 It is not as good as Man utd's own

The greatest football club anthem in the world..."Take me home"... #GGMU #MUFC

@Picrocrocin @XAngelH @AdamJSchwarz @RoyalFamily Thank you for confirming that you do not understand constitutional monarchy. There are several of them in Europe - none are like your 18th century idea of a monarch and most are a lot more democratic than the US system. I'd suggest you educate yourself but I doubt you could.

@XAngelH @AdamJSchwarz @RoyalFamily Thank you for confirming he is a puppet, not a King!

Trump is trying his toxic beta-male handshake, and Charles is having absolutely none of it.

@Dannynn__ @PLCPolice Oops 'tickets'

@Dannynn__ @PLCPolice That was the capacity of the old Highbury stadium and there were far more people wanting to kers than could get in.

Nope. This is what happens when a nation state buys a club, pumps it full of money, cheats, and drags it to the top. You can manufacture trophies with unlimited money and questionable accounting, you can’t manufacture a fanbase. Why can’t we just he honest about this?

@Mattjbaker01 This is good news for Adlington but it should never have been shortlisted. The Task Force report was ill-informed and lacked any credible analytical support. In the circumstances, the government should drop the pretence that it remains credible and apologise for the disruption.

Not surprised to see Adlington in Cheshire East dropped from this list. Locally, there's very visible opposition & regeneration is always about winning hearts & minds. You have to take people with you... Five sites cut from UK ‘new towns’ shortlist ft.com/content/d924bd…

@CFCNoFilter @Adaeze_michael And in your first 100 years, until Abramovich bought you the title, you had been English champions precisely ONCE and relegated 6 times. It doesn't matter how long it has been since a club won; it is much less important than how equipped they are to be champions again.

@Adaeze_michael Arsenal have not won the Premier League in over 20 years

Chelsea fans argument :we won this ,we won that ? When was the Last time your Club won the Premier league? It is almost a Decade now and you are Taunting Arsenal who are now top of the Log ..I been get am before No be Property o ..Chelsea will end the Season Trophyless

@InshallahSZN @Bbcprojj And Arsenal were missing Gyökeres, Gabriel Magalhaes, Havertz, Gabriel Jesus and Ødergaard (except for a few minutes when the match was already won). So don't moan about being far from full strength and ask why you haven't got a deep enough squad.

@Bbcprojj We are less than full strength we have had the greatest start of all time with two of our best players missing. One who has been overly relied on in the past. Plus even last night we were missing Diaz. Arsenal did well. But we were far from full strength

Guys are crashing out over a Arsenal loss in group stage. You boys would've lost the plot when Kroos missed open goals during our Heynckes treble team lost 3-1 to BATE Borisov 😂😭

@narindertweets @Ranga5317672481 No POC but definitely one POS

@Ranga5317672481 No..are you ok? Lol Im going by 3 episodes where we see her team of hundreds repeatedly and I saw NO POC. Not one Only 2 black models (that doesn’t count as that's for show)

I went into the Victoria Beckham documentary wanting to like her- truly. But sadly, it reinforces everything negative about her..nothing endearing about her - sense of graft or creativity, it was honestly painful to watch. Detached, entitled, and oddly joyless. She seemed more interested in appearing busy than actually doing anything! The only time she showed a flicker of emotion was crying to get more money from an investor- who had to tell her it wasn't financially viable to spend £80k a year on plants and someone to water them! 🙈 The real eye opener, however, was a team of hundreds and hundreds and not ONE black or brown person- all white. This is unacceptable considering she represents a global brand - its indefensible for 2025 @victoriabeckham

@bbcweather I've just driven home from London to Cheshire and it's been foggy most of the way. It was thick in some places and, e.g , a plane landed at Manchester airport right in front of me and it looked like a ghost. But the BBC Weather app showed it clear and sunny.

@Owen_jpegs @FabrizioRomano You mean like Saka, Nwaneri and Lewis-Skelly? When was the last time Arsenal had to sell a senior player they wanted to keep?

@FabrizioRomano The nigha would leave, Arsenal suck at making top talents stay

🚨 Crystal Palace and Norwich both made contact with Arsenal for 2007-born talent Dan Casey. Arsenal have also tabled an offer to keep Casey as he’s currently out of contract, talks ongoing. Casey (20 goals with U18 last season) could leave if a compensation package is agreed.

@Davide_F00 @Gushollington99 @Sporting_CPAdep @ZRAFC @CNN Given that Sporting CP lost 5-1 to "shit" Arsenal last year (& at home too!), what does that make your team?

@Gushollington99 @Sporting_CPAdep @ZRAFC @CNN We were winning titles even before Gyökeres 😭😭 Bro you have no argument, Arsenal will always be shit

Viktor Gyökeres' house is undergoing changes with a house removal van. The end of the saga is near. [Via @Sporting_CPAdep @CNN]

@Bosco27m @WelBeast It clearly isn't a tournament for champions because, for example, the champions of England and Spain aren't in it and other clubs got in for dubious reasons like Inter Miami who are there because Infantino fixed things to get Messi in.

@WelBeast When do Arsenal play,shit sorry its a tournament for champions not bottlers🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂

@LouisDunford The Spanish CL Final report (in AS) namechecks North London Forever - English version by Google Translate. Well done!

@DominicHanson15 @lbdrfc The idea that Tranmere "rolled over " against Donnie when they were fighting for their own survival is ridiculous. They dominated the game but failed to score just like Bradford did when you lost at home to Tranmere last month. It's a loser attitude to blame others.

@lbdrfc You had the more easer run in Colchester and tranmere both rolled over for you !

We’ve literally got the best manager and footballer in the league. Awards mean fuck all

@StephenJohnJam4 Pretty much what Liverpool fans thought in 1989 - how did that go?

You've got to feel for the 3,500 Arsenal fans who have tickets for Anfield, watching the guard of honour and then seeing their team smashed a few days after being knocked out of the Champs league by PSG. Karma 😂😂😂

@TheAttagirls My pleasure

@DuncanTeaching Thank you.

Woman of the Day barrister Theodora Llewelyn Davies born OTD in 1898 in Birkenhead was the first woman to knock on the doors of the Inner Temple a matter of days after Sex Disqualification (Removal) Act 1919 came into effect on 23 December 1919. In 1916, she studied law at London University and in 1917, she attended the first college for women, Girton College, Cambridge, which had been founded by her great-aunt, Emily Davies. There was no possibility of actually practising law though. Cambridge didn’t award degrees to women until 1948. It awarded them a Certificate of Proficiency which makes it sound as though they’d passed their basic road safety cycling test. In any case, women were barred from becoming solicitors or magistrates and not permitted to serve on juries. The Sex Disqualification (Removal) Act removed those barriers. It began its progress through Parliament while Theo was at Girton and a forward-looking (these days, some might say an unusually forward-looking) Bar Council could see the writing on the wall. “The question of the Sex Disqualification Removal Act came up, and that was going to open a lot of things…magistrates and solicitors and a lot of things. Not the Bar, because they never had been interfered with by legislation and the thought of having their special personality interfered with was abhorrent to them. They thought that even the presence of women at the Bar was more endurable than having it interfered with by legislation! So while I was at Cambridge, they opened voluntarily, by coincidence, without any unpleasant interference by the legislature, and it was therefore possible to be admitted.” Theo was admitted to the Inner Temple on 9 January 1920, at the age of 21. Seventeen days later, Ivy Williams (1877-1966) of Devon was admitted too. “They had to alter all the ‘hims’ to ‘hers’ and re-do it. However the man behind the desk seemed to bear up and got it done.” You see, that’s how you do it. No fuss. Other professions had to be dragged kicking and screaming into the 20th century and it took rather longer than you might think. Despite the 1919 Act, Proviso B permitted male-only juries if the indictment was deemed too shocking for delicate female sensibilities; cases like sexual assault or rape. This continued till 1972. Not a typo - 1972 - but back to Theo: Because of their years of study at university, both women only had to attend three dinners per term instead of the usual six. Ivy’s exceptional academic record at Oxford meant she was excused two of the four compulsory dining terms before being called to the Bar. She was called on 10 May 1922. Theo was called on 17 November 1922. “Owing to her brilliance and hard work she passed at a level that enabled her to cut two terms. So by this I’m not suggesting special generalship on her part. She was, in fact, the first woman to get called to the Bar. Though she never practised but then proceeded to become a teacher of law at, I think, Oxford. I didn’t really know her well, though I’d met her.” The first time Theo took dinner at the Inner Temple, her elder sister went with her as far as the entrance for moral support but after that, she was very much on her own. “There was very little fussification at the Inner Temple; that is the nature of the place. The Middle Temple and, still more, Grays Inn, have toasts and all sorts of things. But the Inner Temple is too grand for that, or considers it unnecessary…One just turned up. And I was of course scared stiff, but succeeded in concealing it, I think. I was then taken to the men’s robing room and given an ordinary black gown.” She was escorted to a seat at the end of one of the benches so that her long skirt would not make it difficult for her to climb over. There were no facilities for women of course so Theo was given a key to the Benchers’ House attached to the Hall which boasted a women’s cloakroom for guests at social events. “Some thinker among the benchers must have decided it was a good idea.” Theo spent seven years at the Bar, mainly taking on dock briefs, attending Assizes and turning out written work but she was once assigned a criminal defence case by a mischievous judge at Guildford. “I was taking a risk which I didn’t realise – that I might be picked by some enterprising criminal for a dock brief, which you had to take. I think it was half a guinea that you got for it and you might have to wait quite a time until the case came on. So the experienced slipped out when the dock briefs were offered. But it never occurred to me that I might get one. But the judge in question was Mr. Justice Darling who liked his joke of a morning and was well known as being a humorist, and so encouraged some man to choose me. I was appalled. It hadn’t occurred to me that I might actually be asked to…However, there it was. I had no choice.” He’d assaulted his wife with a hatchet. Sadly, I’m unable to tell you the outcome of the case. Theo gave up the Bar when she married in 1929 but she subsequently served on the executive of the Howard League, campaigned for the abolition of the death penalty, and later became a justice of the peace. She died in 1988 at the age of 90.

@kevebbs I was a weedy student but John was an apprentice at Lairds and a big unit which was handy when a disgruntled yokel shouted "There's 2 of the Scouse bastards, let's get em!" We made it safely and it was wise not to point out their misuse of the demonym.

@kevebbs In 1969 my mate John and I were walking home from the pub and talking about what we were doing at the weekend. Obviously we decided to go to Bournemouth and we were probably the only Tranmere fans there to see them win 5-1.

Remember when we used to play Bournemouth regularly in the league? Adam McGurk’s injury time winner in the sunshine at their gaff? Fucking tragic seeing how the clubs’ respective trajectories have differed since

@SteveSayre @TomHoefling @TheRickWilson Germany invaded Poland and Britain's treaty with Poland aligned them to declare war in the aggressor. Are you suggesting they should just have allowed Germany to raoe the world unchecked?

@TomHoefling @TheRickWilson Churchill as First Lord of the Admiralty and the British government declared war against Germany--not vice versa.

Exactly who started the war?
