Go on Binface!

@footballcliches.bsky.social Official football club Strava accounts are now a thing for some reason

It annoys me that he isn't called Count Binhead

Maybe I am a big gets upset by football shirt designs guy

Can't get over how bad it is

Steve Hodge was on the radio yesterday and he said this was an intentional back pass which a) I never knew and b) what the hell were you thinking man?

How did Mo Salah take that penalty? Egypt the keeper

@domshawecho.bsky.social @scottwilsonecho.bsky.social Oooh ooh I know this one - Frazier Richardson

Everton have basically got Hackney for half price if this is the market price for midfielders

I think Everton is a good move for Hackney but I also think *teams better than Everton* are costing themselves a bunch of money here, because they'll just end up paying double that in a year.

*sad face*

Who knows what we might get should England veat DR Congo!

@footballcliches.bsky.social I'm catching up on episodes but genuinely stopped-in-my-tracks shocked at how @cdeccleshare.bsky.social pronounces "Panama"

Can't wait to collect those bags

There has never been a single remotely amusing joke, anecdote or comment about "Larry the Cat"

@footballcliches.bsky.social the Mechelen spell stops Erwin Koeman from having a satisfyingly symmetrical club career

Too much fun tbh.

It's 2026 and the sports industry is still talking about gamification and "second screen experiences" sportindustry.co.uk/news-categor...

My Facebook feed is absolutely flooded with right wing (seeming) accounts freaking out about the proposed U-16 social media ban. Feels all very bot-farm'y and disinformation playbook adjacent.

@footballcliches.bsky.social Her right foot is what?

If Spain were Boro, Cape Verde score from a 95th minute corner here

Wake me up when the knock out stages start

I'm massively in favour of the social media ban for Under 16s, but not entirely sure how YouTube is going to be included in all of that. YouTube is basically TV for that entire generation.

A quick check of Twitter to see if Southampton fans are contrite or accepting of their play off explusion yet, based on the new WhatsApps. Nope, not a bit of it. Still Boro's fault, apparently. This may be more a Twitter thing than a 'Saints fan' thing but it's remarkable anyway.

Some mad stuff in here www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

I've been largely enjoying From, but whoo boy is season 4 bad. It's like every episode has a different writer, but the caveat is that writer has never seen any of the previous episodes, or maybe even the show at all.

Started to play through GTA V again, trying to complete it before GTA IV. It holds up astonishingly well considering how old it is now.

A British 'Mount Rushmore' of absolute whallopers.

So many of the local news posts about Boro's defeat yesterday are swamped in the comments by Southampton fans trying to make some equivalence for the reasons the two teams didn't get promoted. Lads, it's not the same.

@footballcliches.bsky.social referring to the winner of the play offs having less time to sort transfers out, Phil Brown described Hull as being 'behind the curve ball' on BBC earlier

Fair play that’s the most annoying thing I’ve ever seen

Football is so broken that even the Hull fans on my train home yesterday were looking forward more to the parachute payment season the year after next than a season in the Premier League.

Reflections on yesterday. Gutted about : not having any moment to celebrate, no goal, not even a shot. We never ever just get our moment. Losing Hayden Hackney, our best young player in decades. Not gutted about: not being in the Premier League,not bothered about that bit. Next season will be fun

90+4 though? Even by Boro's wembley heartbreak standards that's a proper gut punch.

Kim Hellberg deserves a big hug & a holiday. His season started in Sweden long before joining us. Since arriving, he helped us all forget about the 🐍. Introduced some at times brilliant Hellball. And, with a full pre-season & players of his own, next season will be immense. We Shall Be. #utb #boro

Would've missed my train had it gone to extra time so be grateful I suppose

Fair play to Hull, given everything that happened they're the right team to go up. Don't want to sound too salty but I do think they'll be lucky to get double figures in points in the PL though.

Give Hellberg the squad he wants and next season will be great. Lovely bit of added beef with Southampton and Wolves to spice it up too. Will be sad to see Hackney go though.

10 Boros out of 10 that. No notes

Let's go!

Wish we'd got an earlier train as cutting this a little finer than I like, but we're on our way down from Leeds to Wembley. UTB
