@mattylufc_ Doesn't bode well for beating Wolves and Burnley to be honest. Can't break a side down

Why do we not try win games of football anymore? Dull, trying to be too safe bullshit dragging us further and further into the mixer over the last few weeks. Don’t get it. Hope results go our way tomorrow big time.

@anon_opin Have a wank and chill out would be my advice

I'm getting really pissed off with all the Americanisms that are creeping their way into British society. It's a dog LEAD, no you can't pet my dog, you can PAT it, and no, you can't get a coffee, not unless you're going to go around the counter and make it yourself.

@EmiratesFACup Anton Stach?

Set-piece magicians 🪄 You’ve got a free-kick in shooting range to win the game… who are you picking? 👀

@Burton15Marcus @Joel04148950 @Captain_Tiggles @benjonescricket We all thought we were going to win it? Did we?

@MikeB237 @Joel04148950 @Captain_Tiggles @benjonescricket His hundred at OT in the ashes is one of the best you will ever see and was why we all thought we was gonna win it this year unfortunately Crawley was extra poor one of the reasons we lost

Crawleyandduckett is the worst thing that happened to Ben Duckett. He averages the same opening the batting as Andrew Strauss! He averages 10 more than Crawley! They are not the same!

@Burton15Marcus @Joel04148950 @Captain_Tiggles @benjonescricket I admire your commitment to this bit.

@Joel04148950 @MikeB237 @Captain_Tiggles @benjonescricket Because he deserves the chances with some of his knocks

@Captain_Tiggles @Burton15Marcus @Joel04148950 @benjonescricket You're wasting your energy. Marcus lives in Baz's post fact world.

@Burton15Marcus @Joel04148950 @MikeB237 @benjonescricket You can be inconsistent and average 50. If he went 0, 0, 100 on loop then fine. The tons probably win matches. But he averages a ton every ~23 innings. By comparison the recently dropped Pope, off the same no. matches, scores a ton every ~11 innings...

@Burton15Marcus @Captain_Tiggles @benjonescricket I'd love to live in your world of rainbows and unicorns

@MikeB237 @Captain_Tiggles @benjonescricket He averages 30 because he’s inconsistent and normally gets out driving

@Burton15Marcus @Captain_Tiggles @benjonescricket 🙄 That'll be why he averages 30 then

@MikeB237 @Captain_Tiggles @benjonescricket No normally he is good

@Captain_Tiggles @Burton15Marcus @benjonescricket Consistent doesn't mean good in this case. He is consistently poor.

@MikeB237 @Burton15Marcus @benjonescricket Averaging about 30 in both domestic and international FC cricket over a large sample size kinda shows Crawley's level. He looks great when he comes off. He just doesn't come off more than what, once every 3 or 4 series?

@Burton15Marcus @benjonescricket He's very consistent

@MikeB237 @benjonescricket Crawley a decent player he’s just inconsistent

@Burton15Marcus @benjonescricket Imagine how well an actual good player would complement Duckett

@benjonescricket You couldn’t be more wrong Crawley and Duckett complement each other so well it’s why they take bowling attacks down unfortunately in the Ashes they didn’t get it right and need to be smarter

@StuartSmudge @RATW_official @BBCOne No one is stopping you doing it on your own if you want Stuart.

No flights. No phones. No safety net... Let the race begin. 🗺️ #RaceAcrossTheWorld, coming soon to @BBCOne and #iPlayer

@jimb0_12 If City would like to be not shit tonight that would be great 👌

@jimb0_12 @127J_H Just the phrasing of the tweet isn't right. Clearly written by an Indian English speaker.

If you’re getting paid £35k a week and you’re still this unenthused, I have to assume the gig is absolutely hideous.

@jimb0_12 Dead ball and everyone has a dose of grow the fuck up.

@mattylufc_ "Runs"

Michael Holding. Next question

@tds122 Feel the same on Tua to the Falcons!

Don't know whether to laugh or cry

@Louis271192 Americans are special though aren't they

@MikeB237 I thought it was the same day everywhere that changes time zones Solstices and all that

Why do people think the clocks go forward tonight? It’s the 29th march ? 🫠

Congratulations to India... #T20WorldCup2026final #INDvNZ
