We looked very tired today which is why getting that draw was crucial. Job done & safely in the hat. Semenyo our best player by a mile and he played 20 mins which tells you a lot. Meanwhile - Tijani Reijnders...what the hell is he, apart from lightweight, with no strength, vision or awareness #mcfc

Only one thing to do in these BALTIC conditions - Happy Garden for tea! Being told a rather optimistic 20 min wait lies ahead.

Peter Barkworth (Where Eagles Dare), Blossoms, Taylor Harwood-Bellis, Alan Gowling

Top batting by Phil Salt there who's also a top Bert as well, still sporting the appropriate shirt number #mcfc #berts

One of the maddest elements of Brexit - and there are *many* - is the rewards that continue to be lavished on the blithering idiots who sold it & continue to be proved wrong about everything every day…

Where to start - the last 10 mins alone were worthy of a book. Throw in a non-denial VAR decision that neither side wanted & it had the lot. Guehi and Bernardo utterly magnificent for us. Huge +3 and character check that. Well in Blues 🩵 #mcfc

Great last over by Sam Curran under pressure there 👏 - as for the rest of our bowlers, hmm. Hats off to Nepal, a fantastic game that.

Nigel Farage tells GB News that Keir Starmer's decision to appoint Peter Mandelson as US ambassador shows his judgement is "seriously wrong" and he should stand down as Prime Minister. Here's what Farage said when Mandelson was appointed

Absolutely this 👇👏

Jarvis Cocker lobbing baby bells at Judy Finnegans face - with moving eyes and teeth - was genuinely one of the barmiest and best things I've ever seen on tv. Shooting Stars was essential viewing in its pomp, an absolute hoot.

1976: “There will be flying cars in the future.” 2026:

Richard Littlejohn wrote about fly-tipping in yesterday’s Mail, today Boris Johnson turns his attention to a bus driver sacked for beating up a thief. Anything, literally *anything*, to avoid addressing the now utterly undeniable shame & humiliation of their pathetic cheerleading for Donald Trump…

1. Biomechanics of the Knee 2. Human physiology and response to exercise 3. Issues in Sport 4. American Politics 5. American Literature and Cinema

Surely bound for West Ham. Makes so much sense it'll probably never happen though.

Johnson culled the Tory Party of all but its grimmest dregs & now the grimmest of the grimmest dregs are defecting to Reform. It would be funny if it didn't alllow them, along with Farage, to pretend that they're not responsible for the state of the nation.

Reform is basically a suburban petrol station's DVD bin of Tory politicians.

With Nigella on board, and Noel Fielding already in situ, theyll be more innuendo than a Carry On Film - tremendous stuff.

This AFC Championship game has been an absolute stinker so far. Just a painful watch.

Can I suggest ‘Abide with me’? You’re welcome.

@pidgeos.bsky.social Turns out there is a plan Jo! Love the Peralta add & really like Tobias Myers for the pen as well. Its been a great week - maybe a depth OF piece somewhere to protect Benge and we have a roster.

Now we're talking Mets - what a great week this has been #lgm

Nigel Farage apologises for 17 breaches of MPs’ code of conduct

Shambolic and shameful performance that. The club owes refunds to all the fans who travelled #mcfc

Where to start with that 1st half. Team selection baffling; Team formation a shambles; Effort level questionable; Defensively a clown show; Star players hiding all over the shop #mcfc

Great start lads. Superb response to Saturdays no show. Not #mcfc

Welcome aboard Marc - please dont be shite #mcfc

We've spent ten years being proved right about all the things the loudest, biggest voices in the UK media insisted, often obnoxiously, we were wrong about. The real kicker is that there's no consolation whatsoever in being correct. Brexit, Putin, Johnson, Truss, Trump, Twitter, Netanyahu etc etc...

Villa fans still booing Grealish who got them a fee of £100m & left to win - "Checks notes" - 3x Lges, 1x FA Cup, 1x European Cup, 1x European Super Cup, 1x World Club Cup; whereas if he stayed at Villa he'd have won - "checks notes again" - bollocks all. What an odd bunch they are #mcfc #efc

Not a clue what the hell this performance has been from City but the complete lack of any application/desire/effort requires some explanation from the club. A pathetic surrender that - and the result actually flattered us too #mcfc

That team selection for us today gives me the creeps. The back 4 🥺 #mcfc

@pidgeos.bsky.social Morning Jo - there has to be some sort of a Mets plan doesnt there? No bothered about Tucker - & especially not on those $ - but surely it wouldve made far more sense NOT to let Pete & Edwin walk? We are now backed into a corner & the world & his wife knows we are desperate.

And this below pre-match highlights why I'm sat watching and Peps won 30 odd pots as a manager 👇 #mcfc 😂

Sensationally good performance from the Blues that. Bernardo running the game, Alleyne a revelation at the back, Semenyo a constant threat, Doku a livewire - proud of them 🩵 #mcfc

Don't like this at all. No holding midfielder at all - we are set up to concede goals against a team who are very good at home. A rather baffling selection with some square pegs in round holes again #mcfc

Acceptable Cup draw that. We'll take it #mcfc

Marvellous - just in time to miss 2 key league games he shouldve been available for, with a squad on its knees in terms of numbers/fatigue. Im Assuming he can operate as an emergency Centre Half? #mcfc

United manager sacked; Celtic manager sacked; just need Slot to get the push and it's "House"

Can Sky Sports pan the camera on Rod Stewart again just for laughs please.

My sincere year-end thought isn’t an original one, but its importance has been underscored to me repeatedly over the last 12 months: be free with telling the people you love that you love them, casually, and at every chance. Great love, small love, every type of love.

Was in Barbados in 1994 for the England Test match - Devon Malcolm tried to kick our taxi in St Lawrence Gap. We told him where to go (politely)

Jeff McNeil traded for basically a bag of balls and The Mets had to pay $5m too? Very clear we wanted him out of the clubhouse at all costs #lgm

#mcfc Absolute creamer 🍺

Another marvellous demonstration of technique by an England opener there. Not

Batted lads. Just the 150 short this time but here we are.

2nd leg at home - that'll do #mcfc

Just pointing out that the UK has the highest pension and minimum wage we ever had. Also the highest level of regulatory protection. Because it is rarely mentioned when everyone talks about how terrible everything is.

Huge result for us that. Well in Blues. Tears all over the TNT Sport crew who cheered Madrid on all night to no avail - lovely stuff 🩵 #mcfc

Genuinely didn't think refs were allowed to give pens vs Real in the Bernabeu tbh. Rudigers been rugby tackling strikers in the box for years so thinks he has a free pass to do so #mcfc

Would've played the team selection tonight vs Leverkusen, and the Leverkusen selection this evening but here we are #mcfc
