@Nick___Collins I hate City more than I hate Arsenal. But I hate Arteta more than that.

Do people hate Arsenal that much that they want city to win?

@SundayChants Excellent refereeing

Meanwhile in Bolivia, a defender was SENT OFF after receiving TWO YELLOW CARDS in the SAME play. 😳⛔️ Unbelievable scenes. 😅

@ChinUpGoAgain I've never understood why people view this as bad etiquette

Bad Etiquette or Not? 🧐 Tony G: “I’m the one paying $7,300.”😬💵 Nasty move.

@VanjaPoker I play in a small stakes two table rebuy tourney every week. It ticks none of these boxes and is wonderful.

Signs of a Bad Table 1. Everyone tight 2. No table chat 3. Lots of headphones 4. Regs everywhere 5. Short stacks only 6. No straddles 7. Strategy discussion 8. Slow play/tanking 9. Phones out constantly 10. Abusive/toxic players What else?

@albiongirl68 How many points did you win the league by?

9yrs ago we win promotion to the Premier League and what a ride it has been #bhafc

@PokerGO Probably a treble up in my weekly £10 tournament. I play low stakes and rarely cash poker. It tends to work best if I've raised pre as I'm viewed as quite tight so it's disguised when it hits straights, flushes or full houses. Good for bluffing with too.

@Phil_of_Shields Interesting. Might be the first to pick this one. What's the biggest pot you've won with it?

Without naming pocket aces, what’s your favorite hand in poker?

@ExtremeFootbal4 He's absolutely terrible. He's obsessed with refereeing deciaions and has no feel for a game.

Is Darren Fletcher the best football commentator???

@ToonPolls I'd sell any of them for the right price as long as it's done early. We all know it's coming to an end and it's better to rebuild with purpose than cling on. Their attitudes have stank this season. Can't afford that again. Barring that: Bruno, Hall, Miley

Regardless of whether you’re Howe In, or Howe Out, most people seem aligned that a major rebuild is needed this summer. Which #NUFC players would you NOT sell?

@NUFCEdge Does he have the pull for modern players? They were mostly children when he was last good. Since then he's thrown dozens under the bus.

I’d honestly take him. Even for just a couple of seasons. He’d certainly have the pull for players and there’d be no fucking about with him.

@v11_eed @K11Luc @GazBainbridge Totally agree

Disagree. IMO, the only signing that didn’t make sense at the time was Elanga - but given Howe’s track record of improving players, I reckon most people gave him the benefit of the doubt. Ramsdale made sense because we needed an experienced No.2. Ramsey made sense because he’s a bloody good player and considered a step up from Longstaff. Wissa made sense because we needed a player with a similar profile to Isak. Fee aside, Woltemade also made sense because he’s talented and we needed a No.10 to offer a variety up front. We know they weren’t his first choices - but the club had to take a gamble or go into a 50+ game season with no strikers. Like I said, hindsight’s a great thing.

With the information he had at the time of signing them, we ALL agreed and supported the signings. Almost a full season of data later, he is allowed to change his mind

@PokerStarsUK One of the more satisfying bad beats

🗣️ K5 is calling a three-bet shove?! #WSOP

@SavMondo Sorry to read this Sav.

My son would have been 18 last week and no one remembered but me. The world keeps turning, life goes on and people have forgotten but I always remember April 9th.

Another triumph for American diplomacy

@ThaEuropeanLad Spurs. It's the biggest humiliation one of the European Super league separatists could ever face. I'd be happy for it to be any of the 6 of them, but I'll take Spurs.

Be honest with me please. What would be more satisfying for you as a hatewatchers. Seeing Spurs get relegated or seeing Arsenal bottle all four competitions and go trophyless again?

Richard Tice demanded Angela Rayner quit over £40,000. Will he over £120,000?

@KrissNufc83 Mongs is a new word to describe football supporters who've watched a player who thinks he's brilliant give well below 100% for over a year.

Other than Bruno, he’s the one player I’d be devastated to go. He’s an absolutely huge player for us, despite what some mongs say.

@JamieMagill5 @WelsbyElton Steve Watson. For a brief spell he looked like he could make a top class centre back (awesome v Barcelona), then was sold and I doubt ever played there again.

We seldom if at all hear the term "utility player" in football anymore ⚽️ The quintessential utility player in the 80s/90s would have been someone like Alan Harper of Everton and Manchester City. Any other contenders, past or present? @WelsbyElton

@Davros_Suker9 @paddypower Somehow Wolves stay up after a narrow 55-54 defeat at West Ham. I can see how this idea could backfire.

@paddypower Scrap 3 points for a win. Only get points for scoring. 1 point per goal.

What needs to be done to make the Premier League better to watch?

This is the key bit that the Howe Out crowd seem oblivious to. #NUFC
