    What's the insinuation there, that he's injury prone? He's only missed 14 games in 3 seasons and 5 of those were through covid and flu. Average of 3 games a season with actual injuries seems pretty good.

    Pogba's told him to take one for the team. Ole out within weeks unless he grows a braincell and plays McTominay at CB.

    John, our coach is hopeless hence the disgusting state of affairs you saw.

    Steve Bruce trying to get his arguably superior Club Knowing credentials over, but none of the idiot players know where Sheffield Wednesday is, so he has to get Roy Keane and Gary Neville in to back him up and instantly loses them.

    VAR has just taken LITERALLY 5 minutes and 10 seconds to allow Vietnam's goal against Oman. It wasn't even a close call... just fucking about by the officials.

    McTominay should definitely not play centre half

    Watching Faroe Islands v Scotland. The former, for a bunch of dolphin-killing 19th century fishermen with a population less than that of Dunfermline, actually ping it about quite nicely.

    Sure they murder dolphins but they've probably got bad qualities as well.

    Fishermen piling on the pressure. They also have an Ultras section behind the goal, complete with graffiti flag, which seems to number about 40 people.

    It’s been another horrendous start.

    McTominay is absolutely useless for Scotland more often than not. I don’t think our striker has touched the ball either

    With the players we have on this should, in theory, be interesting as we don't go behind very often.

    Therefore I look forward to Waistcoat going five at the back and re-implementing the double pivot at half time.

    That’s nice about the Scotland support, but what about the Faroe Islands?

    Scotland struggling against the Faroes was as predictable as Scotland winning a crucial game against Israel in the last minute. Were they on the piss on Saturday, Waff?

    Lyndon Dykes is such a donkey that it somehow works in his favour. Kind of glad him and Christie are banned against Moldova.

    We’ll beat Moldova. Faroes are weirdly okay for such minnows. Denmark only scored around the same time against them too. We were fucking embarrassing though and the manager is horrendous at changing it up. We probably need a point against Denmark now to guarantee a seeded play off spot. Our record at home in qualifying games is quite good and we do raise our game in these types of games so more hopeful of that than i was of a good performance tonight

    Well, at least it wasn't the worst thing I saw tonight. The John Lewis advert I've just watched has blown it out of the water.

    Canada being undefeated so far in WCQ, including drawing to Mexico at the Azteca and to the USA in Somewhere, USA is going to make the inevitable ‘5th place, narrowly missing out’ finish all the worse.

    Who knows, but people said I was mad when I asserted we should sack him after the Euros before we'd kicked a ball in the final.

    I know there are boys that don't go on to want to change gender that mess about with make up and dresses and you do need to "let life happen" (), but you can't make an advert like that without evoking transitioning and to watch John Lewis Insurance and Partners (no less) cynically exploiting that for commercial gain made me feel quite sick.

    My wife liked it and tried to get me to come in and watch it, so I guess you/we aren't the target market [it being on during bake-off also probably a clue there].

    I've just had the thought that Giggles and Kikó could have been like Roy Keane and Gary Neville if things had worked out differently. Maybe there's still hope.

    I caught it after the football and before the news, so I'm guessing it's everywhere.

    I mean, it's very well made, I just don't think companies should be commercialising what I'd imagine is a hugely challenging period in the lives of everyone involved and for long after too. But then, I am 41 and oozing white male privilege, so what do I know?

    You've got me. If I thought anyone at John Lewis Home Insurance and Partners (no less) gave one single shit about trans issues and the issues were as grave as people would have you believe, then I'd probably applaud them for doing it.

    I saw it during the GBBO break, and my only takeaway from it was 'if my kid knocked a full pallette of wet paint onto the carpet like that I'd chin the little cunt into next week'.

    I thought the same. He can wear a dress if he wants but the first thing he breaks and he's getting a clip round the ear and told to wise the fuck up.

    More like 1) the sentiment that what you see in that advert is 'let[ting] life happen'; and 2) that it should form the basis of an advert for home insurance. The logic of it all leads to legitimised noncing.
