@tpacker I’ve seen more competitive pre season friendlies!

Argentina have repeatedly shown us everything football shouldn’t be. Today France and England showed us what it should be. No hate between players, no filthy fouls and trying to actually harm each other, no political statements, no favouritism, no disgusting behaviour from fans just the beautiful game.

@Nigel_Farage Well it’s easier to lie for you obvious!

Andy Burnham had to look down and check his notes 266 times yesterday. I don’t need an autocue to tell you what I believe in.

@DCBMEP @reformparty_uk @Nigel_Farage Another flip flopping Tory jumping ship..,.

Big news!!! I am joining @reformparty_uk . I believe the country needs a Revolution not just tinkering with. I am sorry to leave the Conservatives and retain great friends there; but feel I must assist in this Revolution and ensure @Nigel_Farage becomes that reforming Prime Minister - backed by a top team. More explanation tomorrow but this story today: express.co.uk/news/politics/…

@paulifd Look at the FIFA rankings pre competition. Scotland played two top ten countries in the group stages. England had it easy until they met Argentina who were their only top ten seed in the knockout stages. All that talent and out you went! That’s keeping it real!

Let’s keep this real. The abuse from Irish and Welsh fans is just hilarious, they don’t even qualify. The Scots are very jealous. They qualified, but England finished 3rd. The Scots finished 2nd last, saved by the stinkers of Uruguay. It’s all you need to know 😍 #eng

@jdcarX Seriously ? Not even close . It was bordering on a friendly !

What a absolute barnstormer in Miami, England and France just served up what might be the greatest World Cup game of all time as the Three Lions ran out 6-4 winners in this mad third-place playoff, Saka bagging a hat-trick like he was on a mission from the football gods while Rice and Konsa stormed out the blocks early to leave Les Bleus shell-shocked at 4-0 down. Mbappé still did his thing with a couple of beauties and the French fought back like the champions they are, pulling it to 5-4 late on, but Bellingham popped up at the death with that trademark swagger to seal it—pure chaos, end-to-end madness that reminded me why I fell in love with this game as a kid, no low blocks or cynical rubbish, just two proud nations going toe-to-toe with skill, heart, and a stack of goals that’ll be talked about for years. England grab third and some proper redemption after the semi heartbreak, France show their class even in defeat, and neutrals everywhere are the real winners. What a night!

@ScotTories What’s wrong with all parties accounts being transparent??? Something to hide??

Don't let the SNP get away with another cover-up. Join the campaign to demand an inquiry. 👉 scottishconservatives.com/news/stop-the-…

@LakotaMan1 Absolutely spot on !

Trump: “Just because you show up on a boat 500 years ago, doesn’t mean you own the land.” Me: “Exactly.”

@obviousenigma1 Another sore loser!

Oh look , hardly any fouls. Two teams playing to the rules. Unlike Argentina.

@Lord_Sugar Pretty sure they can do the same ! Get over it .

Is there a chance if FIFA watched this they would disqualify Argentina for cheating or have a replay with another referee

@MachiavelliBus1 @conor_matchett Chicken says it in parliament knowing he’s safe from any action!

@conor_matchett Sturgeon. Alex Salmond. What we all now know. The real reason for going after Alex Salmond. Here's a short clip of Sir David Davis M.P. in Parliament today.

DYNAMITE: Nicola Sturgeon 'tried to jail Salmond to cover-up hubby's crimes', ex-FM's ally claims Adds she knew about the crimes, tried to cover them up, and benefitted from them "She is lying", David Davis said. thescottishsun.co.uk/news/16559310/…

@HowlingToad @FTBLsection The draw gave them an easier run ( going by FIFA rankings) up to the Argentina game and if they had played , as well as they can, that would’ve been the case! Had they been on the other 1/2 would they gave gone so far? It’s a great squad of individuals but……

@GrahamRodger56 @FTBLsection A good draw in what sense? If England were in fact inferior to their opponents prior to the semi-final, wouldn't they have lost?

Be honest… Is this England team overrated?

@JohnPFrew @SteveTa65152757 David hasn’t got the balls to repeat that outside WM !

@SteveTa65152757 Utter rubbish my friend . Sturgeon made several poor and even wrong decisions and no Politician is immune from that . Blair in Iraq etc etc . Davis knows Sturgeon has no comeback with statements made under Parliamentary Privilege . Is he then a coward ? Perhaps

Sturgeon calls David Davis a coward. Sturgeon deleted all her Covid WhatsApp messages despite promising not to. Sturgeon said she would release her Branchform statement and now refuses. Sturgeon has run off to London after destroying Scotland. Sturgeon is the coward. #NippyKnew

@InnesMcgarry They’ve learned from the mistakes Labour made when using PFI loans to build new hospitals that when combined with service contracts cost billions more.

They were elected on a pledge to build a new Monklands Hospital as well. Funny they aren’t so wound up about that?

@ivanchargo @FTBLsection You had a pretty comfortable draw that resulted in you not playing a FIFA top ten ( pre World Cup) team until Argentina. I genuinely think the team didn’t play well and were lucky to get past Norway!

@FTBLsection No there not They just made it to the semi final on the World Cup, not bad if you ask me. Makes them the 3rd/4th best international team in the world. Depending on who wins between France and England 🙏🏼

@JLretronne @FTBLsection Good achievement- your draw made it comfortable but your players didn’t play particularly well.

@FTBLsection Kane didn’t turn up the knockout stages. Bellingham had a good tournament, so did Elliot Anderson. Rest were average. Spence had a good run when he came into team. Gordon is miles off being a Barcelona player. Good achievement getting to Semis.

@HowlingToad @FTBLsection Good draw ensured that!

@FTBLsection They were ranked 4th before the tournament. They will finish 3rd-4th. Seems like they are adequately rated to me.

@jdcarX Be honest , England were just as guilty !

Absolutely appalling shithousery. Messi not guiltless either. If you think this is OK in football, and not blatant gamesmanship… you are wrong.

@SportsUncensrd Palmer had a poor season and his form was very inconsistent. As for his character…. stupid to judge on one incident…….

👀 Graeme Souness questions Cole Palmer's character after a bad experience in Dubai: "I think he's outstanding...I got a little insight into [his character] in Dubai in February where he was extremely rude to someone in a restaurant." 👇 📺youtu.be/xxT3DlF900I

@Mike_Blackley @GrahamGGrant @DailyMail As soon as you see Daily Mail you know it’s poor journalism…..

Nicola Sturgeon has shown 'utter contempt for telling the public the truth' after refusing to release her statement to police on Operation Branchform. mol.im/a/15977363 via @DailyMail

@ConnollyBi50389 @ScotTories I recall the 60/70 ( I was just as teenager) and many politicians were seen as “working for the people” and respected. Jimmy Reid I always listened too (my dad admired him) but I genuinely don’t rate anyone as highly at the moment! We can but hope! Take good care !

@GrahamRodger56 @ScotTories Aye, politicians have always been an easy target for comedians, haven’t they? There’s never a shortage of material! But behind all the jokes, people just want honesty, accountability, and someone who actually listens. That’s usually what matters most.

The SNP can’t hide any longer. We need a full inquiry now. Join our campaign to stop the cover-up. 👉 scottishconservatives.com/news/stop-the-…
