Anyone know who this swaggy Don was warming up with the squad before the Barca game? Never seen him before. He had calves of steel and great technique.

@daisychristo And also, you’ve written a bloody book on this so I should probably avoid trying to lecture you on things you definitely know - I’ll buy the book 😂

@daisychristo That said, it’s still rubbish when VAR does intervene! It can take too long, gets involved with decisions that are subjective, removes the frantic joy after a goal because the seed of doubt is always there, etc. Of course, speed of decision making would absolutely help though!

The biggest thing I have learnt from VAR is that speed in decision-making matters. Compare Scenario A & B. If VAR worked like A, most people would be for it. Instead it is much more like B. Speed in decision-making isn't an enemy of quality; it's an aspect of quality.

I'd add: If you don't care about football at all, this book is still worth reading. The problems it identifies and analyses not only ruin football matches, but prevent us from building high speed rail and deporting paedophiles.

@theonlypeterkay Except he clearly doesn’t believe this - by all accounts he has a very high opinion of his own intelligence and brilliance. This is clearly (to me anyway) pretend modesty and performative self-deprecation

Cummings caught in a transient moment of clarity and honest introspection: He admits in terms, that he was an incompetent, over promoted Dunning-Kruger, an unqualified and incompetent poser who, together with his boss, should never should have been in such a position of power.
Dominic Cummings@Dominic2306

The lies and coverups in the Inquiry Report are so extreme that it’s inconceivable it’s the result of pure stupidity and incompetence. It can only be deliberate lying. Baroness Hallet and the lead lawyer Hugo Keith KC should be stripped of all official jobs, all gongs, and legally barred from working in the law for the rest of their lives. They have spread lies in their report and suppressed critical evidence including the crucial fact that the most powerful official in the country today, Cabinet Secretary Chris Wormald, was responsible for trying to force the PM to tell the country to organise ‘chickenpox parties’ and was complaining, even on 12 March 2020, to the then Cabinet Secretary Mark Sedwill that I was blocking this madness. (I WAS blocking this madness -- i.e 'being disruptive' as the Inquiry puts it. Whatever your view of covid and 'lockdowns', nobody in their right mind should have been encouraging it to spread *as fast as possible* in March 2020.) The fake Inquiry tells so many lies it would take pages to list them all. And they deliberately did not ask the ~30-50 young women working in No10/Cabinet Office - including those brought in by me against Cabinet Office opposition and hatred -- to give evidence *even when they were one of just a handful of witnesses to meetings the Inquiry itself says were crucial* and it can’t figure out what happened, and even when *the young women themselves presented the evidence to the crucial meeting*! 1 or 2 might be just normal modern Britain incompetence but this cannot explain the TOTAL exclusion of ALL the young women not ONE of who was asked to speak and most of who were not even asked to give written evidence. This is not explainable by any normal incompetence, only by a very deliberate desire to *avoid getting the evidence* because the evidence undermines the fake history they want to tell. And a desire to avoid the spectacle of young women in court telling the truth about the massive incompetence of so many senior older men. Disgrace is too weak a word for the Inspector Clouseau Inquiry and its lying report. 'Damned lies' is a better description. The next House of Commons should pass an Act of Parliament declaring the Report ‘fake history’ and punishing those responsible including, but not only, Hallett and Keith. Iraq, the financial crash, the attempt to overthrow the EU referendum, covid and its procurement farces, Afghanistan, the Ukraine farce and its procurement farces, the lawfare against British Special Forces while importing jihadis literally called 'Jihadi' who then do jihad -- over and over the Insider world of SW1 screws the country, avoids responsibility then covers it up. TIME FOR REGIME CHANGE. Ps. the "23,000 lives" number is totally bogus too -- they've spun this fake 'model' to the public for political reasons, as happened during covid.

The murder of Charlie Kirk is part of a disturbing rise in political violence that threatens to hollow out our public life. A free society relies on the premise that people can speak out without fear or humiliation. No more political violence.

@Guesty22 Or anyone. My gut says we get Wissa for an inflated fee. But at this point we need a body. Any body. Because we can’t go into the season with only one first line striker.
