@Al30906 @FlashHeart59 @Noirchick1 Charles Laughton's classic 'The Night of the Hunter'

@FlashHeart59 @Noirchick1 what is this from? Thanks

The actress smartly ditched her early glamour roles and became a serious dramatic award-winning star. Who is she?

@RedCircleFP @ccfc_07 @JackOrton96 Did Ref see the hand or just Rushworth impede w/ contact. (Ref only gave pen but no yellow) If Bobby Moore toe-pokes a ball off a striker's foot before he he shoots but Bobby's momentum takes the striker to ground is that a pen? Obvs not last ditch challenges happen all the time

@ccfc_07 @JackOrton96 For the terminally dim. ‘Got the ball’ does not mean it’s not a foul, and in this case a penalty. If you commit a foul to get the ball it’s still a foul regardless. If hack a player down but happen to kick the ball in the process is that not a foul because you ‘got the ball’?

Sack off every championship ref and start over

@Ojbb_ @j3cK_b @adamwyatt42 @Joeytaylor123 Law 12 (...goalkeeper only has to touch it...)

@j3cK_b @adamwyatt42 @Joeytaylor123 Jack you haven’t got a clue lad, Diaz didn’t have control of the ball afterwards. Was never gonna get anywhere near it 🤣 Even before he dived on the floor

People saying Rushworth wipes him out so it's a penalty, does that mean the touch doesn't count? I'm confused, what's the ruling? Surely if he gets the ball, then it isn't a penalty? 🤔

@artlowy8 @1968Tv Goalkeepers have to guess 360 where a ball's gonna go - left, right, low, high etc., - in a split second Banks is near post for the cross Everyone behind the goal was waiting for the ball to hit an empty net - Banks cut if off with one-handed rapid reflex dive Rare brilliance

@1968Tv I must be the only person to think this save is not as good as people make out. 😬

Back in June 1970, the BBC’s David Coleman commentated on one of football’s iconic moments and said “And This The Save Of The World Cup” Is it still the greatest save in World Cup history? #WorldCup

@lutontownST @kevshat Counter-intuitively; it is Luton's HOME form that's left them needing snookers to get into the play-offs - not the AWAY form. With the exception of Lincoln, Cardiff and Plymouth no team in League One has a decent away record Luton have not won enough games at HOME COYH

⚽️🚨“SOME OF THE BEST FOOTBALL WE’VE PLAYED UNDER WILSHERE” | Luton 2 Peterborough 1 - instant reaction⚽️🚨 @kevshat highlights gives his instant take as Town took a big 3 points against Posh and saw results elsewhere go their way to offer a hope of reaching the play-offs.

@LutonNews_LTFC The referee - on his debut in League One* - had a clear line of sight. He bottled it. *soccerbase.com/referees/refer…

So then, pen? Or no pen?

@dthroat @FXMC1957 BBC documentary "Linford" bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…

@FXMC1957 He liked a nice cup of herbal tea too.

2 April 1960. Linford Christie was born in St Andrew, Jamaica. He won gold medals in the 100 metres at all 4 major athletics championships: Olympics, World, European and Commonwealth.

@AnthonyBraithw7 @StanCollymore WC2026 expanded (48 teams) from WC2022 (32 teams) For WC2026: 54 UEFA teams got 12 winners slots + 4 P/O slots = 16 qualification slots For WC2022: 55 UEFA teams got 10 winners slots + 3 P/O slots = 13 qualification slots UEFA 2026 one less team taking part w/ 3 more slots

@StanCollymore Guess the CL models has not helped ,look at most home nations championship players at best ,biggest teams in Europe and esp England hand pick overseas players from smaller countries making them better.

Watching the World Cup as a kid and thinking there wouldn't be an Italy for 3 editions would have been as absurd as suggesting Brazil would miss 3 editions. Unthinkable. Not sure how deep the rot goes ( coaching, academies, pathways etc) but imagine being a young Italian player or aspiring coach with virtually zero reference points to look at on the international stage.

@itstom_white @Crystal81370907 @bbcoxfordsport @BBCSport ...reading the article; Oxford are uncomfortable because - as relegation rivals to Blackburn - O'Neill could potentially call up 4 players for a FRIENDLY and O'Neill is cited as saying calling up players in the EFL is fine as they have a lot of resilience

@Crystal81370907 @bbcoxfordsport @BBCSport Yeah rugby league international coaches I believe are part time, ice hockey head coaches usually have a club role unless like semi retired.

BREAKING: EFL confirms at least one Championship club has raised concerns over a potential conflict of interest involving Northern Ireland and Blackburn boss Michael O’Neill. #oufc Story with @bbcoxfordsport @BBCSport ⬇️ bbc.co.uk/sport/football…

@LMc31214115 @retrofootballnw @LutonTown @QPR The Oak Road was 'Home' end (until 1991) Kenilworth Road was 'Away' end with open terraces and no roof.

@MigCrew2000 @That_Mr_Raw @LutonNews_LTFC Charles -- it was obvious to most of us at the time that Luton were pants under Bloomfield (and had been under Fraud Edwards) x.com/Run2Swim50/sta…

@That_Mr_Raw @LutonNews_LTFC This is 1 of many examples

That’s the issue with all those dropped points for the Hatters in recent weeks then, as Stockport, Reading and Wycombe all win today. Luton now 6pts off the Royals in 6th, with Stockport 8pts ahead in 5th and out of reach now you’d say.

@AndyBodfish Easily worst ever England kit

30 years ago today. England debut their iconic grey kit against Bulgaria, Les Ferdinand scoring the only goal at Wembley. They wore it only twice more in 1996, in the Euro semi against Germany and Georgia in November.

Gary Oldman on the "magic" of James Stewart: "James Stewart is almost too tall to be a star in a strange kind of way. He's too skinny and he's got this really strange voice when he talked and you just think this shouldn't work. He's not Humphrey Bogart, he's not Edward G. Robinson, he's not James Cagney and yet somehow it's magic when the camera is on him." (Interview to BBC, 1997) Clip from: Rope (1948) Director: Alfred Hitchcock

@NewStatesman @Will___lloyd 21st Century Neil Kinnock

A CERTAIN IDEA OF ED MILIBAND by @Will___lloyd The story of the post-Blair Labour party, if it can be contained in one individual, is the story of Ed Miliband. This is not a story about backstabbing brothers, back room deals with “union paymasters”, election promises printed on tomb stones, questionable slogans on mugs, bacon sandwiches, or double kitchens; nor anything as vulgar as retail policies aimed at marginal constituencies. Miliband’s story is really about the exhilaration of ideas: where they come from, why some of us fall in love with them, and what propels those ideas from the fringes of the debate to the fulcrum of an era. This is not an argument about whether those ideas and the policies they eventually become are right or wrong. It’s a story about the long-term political power that commanding those ideas allows an individual to wield. It is about the years of Edward Samuel Miliband - and Milibandism - which might be seen as the latest, or perhaps even the last, attempt to restore a social democratic political economy in Britain. Since July 2024, when Labour returned to government, it has been hard to work out precisely the point of this administration: to spend a bit more here and there, but leave an abject economic settlement largely intact; or to be much more than that, to fundamentally reshape Britain? For the last 20 months, Miliband has stood distinctly apart from those growing doubts. Even his enemies admit that the Minister for Energy Security and Net Zero knows what he is doing. That, in large part, is why he is so hated by his opponents. Miliband is getting social democratic things done at scale: during an era of uncontrollable global conflict, which began with the Ukraine war and is spiralling in Iran, when the direction of energy policy has become the most fiercely disputed issue in British politics. Miliband and his ideas have become a lightning rod for opponents of this government. (“Eco-zealot”; “madman”; “hysterical eco-obsessive”; “muddled climate zealot”; “demented fantasies”; these are Fleet Street editorials’ relentless tribute to his perceived threat.) And yet, as one of those critics, a source who had worked with Miliband during his leadership of the Labour Party between 2010 and 2015, grudgingly admitted: “There is something about Ed that is significant. He is a symbolic figure… the last flickering of social democracy.” Cover art by Mona Eing and Michael Meißner

There’s been a media blackout on this corruption story. Why? Well, because the alleged perpetrator is a Democrat. If these allegations are true, this is one of the most brazen abuses of tax payer money in recent memory.
