    Are you calling me blinkered? I'm saying I'd be done if they had taken over at Old Trafford. It's beyond football.

    Aye, and I'll give up flying on Boeings, stop watching Disney and delete Facebook too. I'll also make sure I never pay taxes or spend any money in the UK.

    Here's tonight's list of companies to boycott, guys:

    Anybody who has bought tickets for gigs through Live Nation, I'm afraid, is going to have to throw them in the bin or turn up and boo whilst burning Saudi flags.

    I think there are some differences for direct and indirect ownership. Anyway, maybe you can cheer on the half time gays being stoned to death.

    There's a difference, but surely boosting their investment and giving them more power is a no-no? You can't use Uber or buy a Tesla either btw.

    The silver lining is it'll be nice to have an absolutely valid reason to hate the guts of another team and cheer their demise hard where previously you'd just kind of dislike Brighton for being dull af #teamkiko

    Win-win, lads. We'll either sneak a trophy or spaff a ton of money on a failure circus.

But you can guarantee if the league find we've broken or bent any rules there'll be a demotion coming our way. But I don't need to tell a Sunderland fan about that!
    We're currently looking at Coventry being promoted from our league in controversial circumstances. If you know our history with them as well as yourselves, well let's just say you couldn't really write the script.

    Swindon's example probably wasn't the best one to use in the context of the pandemic. Several lower league clubs are going to need bailing out in some form if they're to survive this.

    Newcastle are everyone's second club though, which creates an obvious dilemma.

    I didn't actually mind them, purely for their history of flair players but I can absolutely get on board with the hatred of the delusional twats. Just a shame this will probably mean they get to keep the most exciting footballer of this decade.

    If it came to it, I would support helping your lot out. Derby days were the best days. Sunderland Till I Die is too relatable to be enjoyable.

    Final Group games today before the quarters:

    Friday 22nd May

    Russia v Czech Republic - 7pm - ITV Hub

    Italy v Germany - 7pm - ITV Hub

    GP W D L GF GA GD PTS
    Germany 2 2 0 0 5 0 5 6
    Italy 2 1 0 1 3 3 0 3
    Czech Republic 2 1 0 1 2 3 -1 3
    Russia 2 0 0 2 1 5 -4 0


    Italy need a result against Germany to guarantee being in the next round. The Czechs just have to beat the weakest team in the group...

    Today I learnt that Barcelona spunked €35m on 30 year old, second choice goalkeeper, Neto.

    Bonkers.

    It was just some top class financial fiddling with Valencia getting their number 2 in exchange for a similar fee, right? You got to love the sport

    Didn't they also whaff Ł15m up the wall on Daniel Braithwaite earlier in the season under the guise of an injury CRISIS?

    That was a brilliant wheeze. Leganes went to the FA after losing Braithwaite and asked to use the same rule to get someone in and the FA told them to fuck off.

    Would be class to see the licences go to someone who wasn’t a stroppy cunt and wanted to improve it. Though they are cunts for doing it just because they’re down a few bob. Didn’t matter any other year.

    I'm watching that Gascoigne documentary at the minute. The lad couldn't tackle for shit but he sounds like he loved all of his time on the pitch. Unlucky as well. That said, I don't think Fergie could've managed him.
