    Brest are so close they can almost feel them.

    There. Done. Not that much effort required.

    Moving Cucurella into midfield when Chelsea has possession has almost made him a passable footballer.

    Yep, but you have to say if we don’t pick up the point we need against Spurs or Villa in the next two games bearing in mind both of them will have played on the Thursday night when they have had a whole week off you’d be very disappointed.

    I'm not sure whether going ahead with a Carabao Cup/Klopp wankfest parade or capitulating and cancelling it is the more tinpot of the options.

    A pity though as it would have been a fitting coda after he was criticised in his first weeks for the players giving it large to the Kop after a 2-2 home draw with West Brom.

    I obviously avoid watching City like the plague but I can't help but feel that Foden getting the football writers' award means this has been a bit of a shit season. Feel like it probably should have been Rodri if it had to be a City player.

    I'm sure they haven't lost in some 50 odd games in which Rodri played. Proper cunt, but proper cunt of a player too.

    Remember when 40 points used to be seen as safety? It could be sub 30 this year.

    Man, non-league is just lighting up with ex-Magpies. How long do I have to wait for Titus Bramble to manage Sunderland Nissan? Never mind, apparently they've been defunct for 15 years.

    Expect big signings in the IT department I guess.

    His remarks in an email to staff were sent on Friday afternoon. Ratcliffe then compares the standards with that of Ineos, the multibillion-pound company he owns.
    Yeah, I'm sure that's an apt comparison.

    That whole thing is redolent of every wanker CEO I've had, and I've had a few now. Record sales this month everyone, but hang on, there's a box of printer cartridges open in the corner and someone's jumper is on the back of their chair, this does not reflect the values of this organisation.

    Far be it from me to question Sir Jim's methods, but I suspect sending an email telling people they are shit, won't actually stop them being shit.

    I'd be interested to know whether things were a bit untidy and he's a grumpy old twat or if it was a proper sty.

    Because let me tell if there's one thing guaranteed to make people with too little else to worry about kick off it's a clear desk policy.

    We probably need a new term for it that doesn't include the word 'work'. Employed from home.

    Needed that.

    This Arsenal team really feels like it has been transported in time from the Benitez/Mourinho era. 4 defensive defenders, 2 defensive midfielders, hard work on the flanks. Quite effective in the play out from the back/error era.

    A soft penalty to be sure that could have been disallowed by VAR, but Christie should had 3 yellow cards after half an hour so fuck em.

    Your obsession with WFH is so funny. I always assumed I'd be exactly the kind of lazy cunt who'd find it impossible not to take the piss, but my #KPIs are actually BETTER working from home. What do you actually base your opinion on? I think they could do millions of studies proving fairly conclusively that WFH doesn't impact on productivity and you'd still go NO PEOPLE WHO WFH DO NOTHING. I can only assume you base all of your opinions on gut instinct and old man received wisdom and then you work backwards from that?

    I think the reality is that giggles has a massive chip on his shoulder cus he's a thick old spastic without any qualifications and is thus barred access from any job where you even could work from home.

    Check his Facebook, probably graduated from the university of life and/or the school of hard knocks. Probably just about more manageable getting through the day without throwing yourself off a bridge imagining there's a shady cabal of pretentious avocado eaters sitting around watching day time telly, while you driving about in a van or whatever you do and eating chicken fillet rolls in service stations is singlehandedly propping up the Irish economy. Rather than you just being a daft old man that is scared and confused by anything more modern than the world of Éamon de Valera.
