    The refs are completely bent in this game - not in big ways, just with all the little things. The pro's bent performance.

    I don't know who this co-comm is (John Salako?) but he needs some coin from the Gambian tourist board.

    That’s some result at whatever the Reebok is called these days. Losing 6-0 in League One. Fuck that.

    In the same league, a bloke scored 4 penalties for Oxford. That must be some kind of record.

    It's probably our single worst ever defeat.

    Bolton were excellent. Afoloyan in particular.

    Was worried MK Dons' season was over with the recent departures but looks like Scott Twine is another prem talent willing to stick around for 6 months and carry them singlehandedly.

    Rolling the chant out beyond Ronaldo has made it a bit lame, but lol at making it into some major issue.

    Maybe HMP Newcastle, if the comments are correct (reddit comments obviously infallible).

    Some call by Southgate never to pick him, if true.

    Ideally out the club and in the jail if he's done it, which presumably it's pretty much definite if there are voice recordings.

    If anyone wants to understand how Rangers didn’t win at Ross County, or how they couple possibly concede 3, have a google of the goals. Good lord it was like Highland league.

    The Great Man wouldn't let them record him in the act. Yet another testament to his professionalism, and it explains his recent comments about young players that some people took to mean Mason Greenwood.

    Seems pretty obvious that United have covered up at least one previous instance (you don't go straight to insta with this stuff and put crosshairs on yourself if the proper channels haven't been tried and thwarted). World of trouble ahead.

    This could be a Yorkshire CCC type scandal. It happened at Middlesbrough a couple of years ago; instead of stringing up Darren Randolph, we shipped him back to West Ham and they buried it (the Tweets will still be up about a "medical investigation" before they agreed to signing him back).

    Possibly. Think there are a few things (including race) that could get in the way of it unfolding across the sport with unstoppable momentum - too many people have too much money to lose. But even if it stays confined to United and Greenwood, it will be a serious of test of the hyper-corporate PR operation that has dragged them through the last 25 years.

    Greenwood is/was a £50 million asset for United. There is no world in which a story like this comes to United executives some time ago and they don't choose the £50 million on the balance sheet over some young woman's welfare. No world whatsoever.

    If it makes it onto Feminist Twitter, it'll go mainstream. They'll have no choice.

    It's surely a given that this sort of thing gets routinely covered up in football. Rugby players are constantly being accused of battering/molesting women, and the player demographics are roughly the same (better if you figure part of this comes from a culture of entitlement). They just don't have the resources to make it go away so it gets out there.

    One of the Egyptian coaches getting involved



    There's gonna be a fair few red cards second half, I suspect. Ashraf for Egypt should have gone already for constantly screaming in the face of the ref.

    It's just so ingrained in them to go down under any sort of shove.

    This pitch looks awful. Can't tell whether that, or the ability of the players is the major contributing factor to most games being such shitfests. Obviously a duel of North African nations is only ever going to go one way, but it'd be nice to see the occasional piece of quality.

    This weird quote from her old man about her phone being hacked could give him a way out. She refuses to testify, sit the rest of the year out whilst 'seeking help' and all that wank, second chance... It's a very weird quote.

    The police can prosecute even if the victim doesn't want to these days. It'll just come down to if they have enough evidence. Which they probably don't at the moment.
