@MozzaTheRozza @jones_mog I think they're just pointing out that a lot of businesses are going to go bust as a result of ridiculously high costs.

@jones_mog have you not thought of economising? or dont Gen-Z do that these days? i have to have a starbucks, i have to get a frap. I must have the latest trainers. cost of living, HELLO? SMH

Lovely day out to Port Eynon today with grand daughter. However, £39 for 2 fish and chips plus a kids version with just soft drinks is mad. With £6 for parking £45 for a day to the beach makes it an expensive day out. Unless something is done to help hospitality this summer we could see many of our UK hospitality businesses really struggling by the end of the year. #UKHospitality #Wales

@iam_me31244 @socialistp40357 @RachelReevesMP Footballers don't work for us.

@socialistp40357 @RachelReevesMP Strange how nobody moans about footballers wages. They contribute nothing to society. Have tax avoidance scams and some get paid £1m a week. Nobody seems to care about that tho

Dear @RachelReevesMP. Can you explain to me why MP's on £98'599 per year from April, are getting a £3'300 cost of living payment too? Most "working people" are lucky if they earn £30k, and they have to pay the cost of heating their homes and pay their own rent and mortgage too.

@billythbook @GraemeAtkinson5 Losing the sky sports coverage then RPGTV was a nail in the coffin. Aware SSR cover it too but it’s always lost in a sea of pish French and American horse racing.

With the right promotion and some TLC to the tracks the dogs could become popular again.

@SimonNott @jerry38952034 @BettingSitesCom @curraghrace It's not a fact.

@jerry38952034 @BettingSitesCom @curraghrace No on-course bookmaker is going to pretend to have paid an unpaid ticket. That’s a fact.

@FlaigyCFC All football fans going regularly back then and earlier than that, didn't realise how lucky we were! Those were the days!

28 years ago today! I miss these two and I miss that Chelsea 💙

@James82310331 Ryan Moore barely raises a smile when he wins a derby, Barzalona did this and got slagged for it. Typical of the UK.

Incredible take when you consider Barzalona did this in an derby

@wrocky366 @DavidRhysLewis9 Wrong

@DavidRhysLewis9 Most working class lads are right wing lad. Always been the same amongst the core support at United.

Absolutely stunned these last few days to discover how many United supporters on my followers are supporters of Reform & Restore Britain. They are no longer on my followers as they clearly know nothing of our club or the history of Manchester.

@BlobWarriorUK @PaulEmbery They'd miss being on their phones or consoles if they were down the pub

@PaulEmbery Youngsters drink less and don't socialise like we did. They'd rather go and look at each others exhaust pipes and rev a car engine than chat up women.

When I was growing up, pubs would often be rammed until closing time (not so much during the week, but certainly at weekends). The bell for “last orders” would usually spark a rush to the bar. These days, even the most popular pubs seem to start emptying out around 8.00-9.00pm, including on Fridays and Saturdays. Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon? Is there a reason for it?

@jon_hindle Proper trainer!

A man you very much want to keep on side in the early season. 👇

@TBJ_Racing Ridiculous ban.

Billy Loughnane was handed a 21-day ban for improper riding after the stewards ruled he acted against the instructions of the vet at Southwell on Thursday evening. David Loughnane’s Beelzebub, received a kick and was subsequently withdrawn by the vets having been deemed to be lame. He then proceeded to ride the six-year-old back from the start. Not very good from young Billy, and a big lesson learnt here for the young man!

@carl_thompson70 Was lucky to be there as well that night. Barca were fantastic that night. Still had terracing in the corners of the top tier! 🤣

Barcelona v Manchester Champions League, Nov 1994 Attendance: 114,000 I had no match ticket that night. A few pesetas to a steward though and I was in. Manchester (United) were roundly beaten 4-0

@RacingMikey96 That's the BHA all over. If I was Billy, I wouldn't even give them the satisfaction of appealing. I'd take the ban, it'd make me more determined to win the jockeys title, I'd also stop doing any interviews or PR as a result. Racing should realise they're lucky to have the likes

Interesting words from David Loughnane about the horse, and it seems rather unfair to ban Billy Loughnane for 21 days when by all accounts he hasn’t really done anything he shouldn’t have.

@AshDavidsonUK @l_is_for_legs @spiritofshankly There is no defending the clubs on this. The fact of the matter is, the big clubs don't want regular match goers. They want day trippers who don't mind paying more to get in and will spend more once inside the stadium. That and corporate is all they're interested in now.

@l_is_for_legs @spiritofshankly Depends on the job

Also it’s interesting they are linking it to inflation in 2026 - in 1994 it was £8 to stand on the Kop in 2026 that would be £17.10 if it had kept in line with inflation 🤷‍♂️

@mekit_happen @rudkin_abigail That's a nonsense argument. TV money, sponsorship money, kit deals.........have all increased massively.

@rudkin_abigail Nobody likes paying more for tickets, yet nobody complains about player wages or transfer fees being astronomically higher compared to years past. It's an easy google/AI search to see that: Wages: ~+3,000% to +3,500% Transfer fees: ~+500% to +600% Ticket prices: ~+100% to +150%

So disappointing this. We’re being priced out of the ground and they won’t realise until it’s too late and the atmosphere doesn’t exist anymore. No matter how little the increase is it’ll be the difference for someone between going and not going.

@TheAnfieldWrap The game is gone for working class lads now, no matter if you support Liverpool, City, United, Everton.... They don't want normal season tickets holders. They want corporate and day trippers who will spend, spend, spend and don't mind paying extortionate prices for a match.

"By announcing three years, you're almost ending the conversation" "You're looking at, in three years time, tickets that are £70 to get into Anfield, and you're looking at season tickets that are over £1000" 🎥 TAW Unwrapped

@ManUtdHeritage What a Magical Place it was back then!

@Darcy2988 @NewsMurray @back_the_BBC It's scare tactics as per usual. No one should be defending these companies, they're making plenty

@NewsMurray @back_the_BBC I’m fine with GDPR not shielding criminals from the consequences of their actions.

Sky TV has been given the go-ahead to obtain personal bank details of dodgy-box users. Surely that's a breach of GDPR law?

@brehon1982 @EssexgoonerMr @MagnanimousUk 🤣🤣🤣 you sound like an MP

@EssexgoonerMr @MagnanimousUk It’s cyclical, good times and bad times. Get your head down, work hard for your kids, fight back in whatever way you can. We’ll come out of this like we always do 👊🏻

Honestly at this point UK prices are just made up: How is a return train to London £170? How is a "cheap" weekend away in England suddenly £600 when I could fly abroad for that. How did £700 rent turn into £1500 for the same house? Why does my car insurance rise every year on the same car with no claims? And since when did two bags of shopping come to nearly £100? We're finished. Absolutely done. 🇬🇧

@22Hater_ You're retarded.

Another fact: In 25 games in the UCL , Cantona scored 8 goals, and never made it to a final in his career. He never played at a World Cup. 0 goals at Euros A guy who benefitted off an awful Premier League era, which was evident in his European and international performances.

Just to confirm so that people who aren’t clued up on Cantona’s time at Utd don’t get fooled by this stuff; In 97 you needed 69 points to win the title. Cantona scored 11 goals this season He made the PFA TOTY once in 7 seasonsc during the WORST era in Premier League history
