This is SO GOOD by @heawood.bsky.social on Lily Allen’s new album, and Lily Allen full stop. I am vicariously living the pain of that Kate Bush anecdote. open.substack.com/pub/heawood/...

It's Christmas

If there was a way we could harness the steam that comes out of some pundits’ ears every time we score from a set piece, we would hit Net Zero early.

Why is hot honey in everything now?? Or it's 'marry me' something??

Am wondering if all of those suddenly deciding they’re against communities living “parallel lives” might reconsider their support of religious schools? Or indeed private ones?

SAKA!!!!!!!!!

This is IMPORTANT!

CHLOE KELLY

Such a great film! And only 90 mins!

Great fun!

Mr. Marinakis jump scare

Comedian goes to Saudi Arabia - and beyond!

So many films are either yet another biopic of some pop dude, or the 97th instalment of a tired franchise.

A tale of two managers, two Brazilians, one colosseum, and one sound: hahahahahaha

Rory McIlroy: ‘I think golf should be held to a higher standard than what was seen out there. Golf has the ability to unite. Golf teaches you life lessons. It teaches you etiquette. It teaches you how to play by the rules. It teaches you to respect people. Sometimes this week we didn’t see that’

Ok ok maybe an eff off win then. X

Me watching those dejected Newcastle fans after they were harassing Bukayo and Viktor all game long

Feels appropriate

Hero

I don’t look forward to our games at this stadium at all. Not because I’m worried we’ll lose, I’m worried when we play at the Etihad or Anfield but I still look forward to it. But with this fixture, my valid concern is that after the game I will not be talking about football.

Have muted the sky coverage.

Is this referee a fucking towel monitor too?!

More Sassy Ref Carlos, please #scd #strictly

My two boys love women's football, women's rugby, women's cricket etc Being able to watch both women and men's sports means there's more of it which is great! ♥️

There used to be an "indice de performance" in the Monte Carlo rally, which rewarded the car which performed the best in relation to its engine size. In football, Oliver Glasner's Crystal Palace would win it almost every round of the PL. Chapeau.

97 - Timed at 96:59, Eddie Nketiah has netted both the latest winning goal on record (from 2006-07) scored by Crystal Palace in the Premier League and latest winner conceded by Liverpool in the competition. Drama.

Yes, Brentford!

Wow! Can't wait #TheBrideMovie www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJra...

Teenagers can die and be maimed by violence, but cannot be allowed to read about it. Teenagers can get SID and underage pregnancies and suffer sexual violence, but must be protected from reading about sex. Does that about sum it up?

Where's Unai off to??

A man who wishes he was a fisherman right now 🎣

Casemiro scored and then decided he was done for the day

This is how blatantly the #BBC and other news favours Reform. This is appalling and unbalanced and needs addressing NOW. www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/how...

Saw a video on Instagram that pointed out that Dirty Dancing came out in 1987 and was set in 1963, so if it was remade now in 2025 then it would be set in 2001, and now I need a little lie down in a dark room for a while.

Great read!

Despicable.

I'm working on a map of Arsenal matchday recommendations (cafes, bars, pubs, restaurants) for a new section in the ArseMAIL newsletter - sent weekly to @arseblog.com Patreon members. If you've got suggestions, don't be shy, let me know and I'll add them.📍 www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/e...

1997 - Noni Madueke is the first player with all five vowels of the English language in his name to score for England since Paul Gascoigne against Moldova in September 1997. Scrabble.

Attendance for the men's England game 1k more than for Arsenal women earlier.

First new thing that can GET IN THE BIN: mid match interviews with managers and players. Lord give me strength.

Worth a read!

Graham Linehan once took issue with a sketch I did and tweeted about me referring to me not by name but only as to who my boyfriend was and called me an NPC ( non player character.) It was misogynistic and his “standing up for women” schtick is baloney.

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life. And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should
