@CPFCFAB Maybe more of a question: for the Arsenal home game, why did the club not have a loyalty points requirement to buy tickets?

@rapids96podcast I have almost zero sympathy for the Rapids attendance / relevance struggles these days. Ownership has the land, cash, opportunity & potential support to put the team in a downtown location, yet the idea does not even appear to have been considered.

You have to wonder how on earth a couple of trains which are already owned, operated by staff that are already employed on tracks that are already built is adding up to $62M? What else has been baked into the costs? msn.com/en-in/sports/f…

@RyderAshby @Judgmental_Jim It’s not even a celebratory song. It’s more a pre-/during game rallying cry “… on fire, your defense is terrified”.
English

@Judgmental_Jim I w100% agree. The post win anthem needs to be unique, like Rocky Mountian high for the Rapids.

Not a fan of Free From Desire playing after wins. To me that’s always been a Vancouver Whitecaps thing in MLS.
The rapids need to be playing Mountain Roads which we sing along to as well. somebody needs to pass this along to Matt Wells low key. #Rapids96

@CFCCath @lindsaymo1978 @AdamCrafton_ @TheAthleticFC Last summer, Switzerland offered free train & local travel on the day of the game & until 5am the following morning for all Women’s Euros ticket holders. Saved ‘00s.

@lindsaymo1978 @AdamCrafton_ @TheAthleticFC Yes I’ve been to Germany several times with both England and Chelsea … and I’ve chatted them around to get the fast train free on some occasions ;)

NEW: MBTA confirm $80 return ticket Boston to Gillette Stadium during World Cup, after @TheAthleticFC first reported it would be over $75. Quadruple the usual price for NFL games. No concessions for kids, over-60s or passengers with accessibility needs

@imonitie_lucky1 @NotFarLeftAtAll In the U.S. unleaded pumps are black & diesel is green, unlike the U.K. This is not an American petrol station.
English

@NotFarLeftAtAll This is a recycled 2019 video from a gas station in Houston, Texas not the UK in 2026. Petrol melts those bags in seconds anyway. Real panic buying is happening due to price fears from the Iran situation, but let's not amplify old clips.

@DENAirport Thank you for operating normally this morning, I touched down at 9:35am and made the 12 noon kick-off with ease!

Tonight, after 43 years of service, the #Class455 EMU’s (‘red trains’) finally bowed after a 3 month stay of execution for 6 units. Unfortunately work commitments meant I couldn’t be there but I did manage to secure a piece of one of the units to remember them by.

@pthread_mutex_t @HippchenK @bscholl @denversmayor Only the Heathrow Express. The Elizabeth Line & Piccadilly Line charge fares that are generally in line with other destinations on the network, taking into account distance travelled.
English

@RBamber @HippchenK @bscholl @denversmayor When Americans take the airport trips seriously they do a subway (Chicago) or light rail (Seattle) line right to the terminal, at the regular in-town price. Germans do it okay too (among those I know, Frankfurt and Hamburg). Heathrow is a bad example because it is so expensive.
English

Hey @denversmayor, congestion to DEN airport keeps getting worse. But we can fix it.
Let’s add a third lane to Pena Blvd and make it a smart dynamically priced toll lane. Here’s how:
- increase speed limit to 75
- lane is free unless average speed of traffic <75
- then ramp tolls automatically to maintain express lane speed of 75
The lane will more than pay for itself. I’m in to help you do this and make it a model for the nation if you’re up for it.

A little piece of Denver soccer history is made as the @denversummitfc kick-off thier first professional @NWSL game against @wearebayfc at @PayPalPark.
