Lads, we’ve hit peak Bristol. www.bristol247.com/news-and-fea...

Casemiro looking forward to the magic sponge there. With loads of custard too

The boys from Brazil. Fuck me, matterface.

If they’re toffee apples he’d probably like them a lot

Have we had a proper comedy result yet?

My sources tell me that a queue of inebriated egg chasers is forming outside a dreadful Chelsea nightclub to have it with Ben Stokes

Not sure about this Canada kit, looks like a plasterer’s radio

That Marsch would be hard work to play for. Dread to think what his team building events would look like

Sky's coverage of Ben Stokes' retirement shows why we need some journalists, not just ex-players, leading their broadcasts. There is a story in this retirement that needs revealing (so we can celebrate him as much as anything else). Sky presenters are not going to go near it

Thank God for Athers and Doull. This is why you don’t have recently retired cricketers commenting on their mates.

Take all the wickets, open the batting, write the theme tune, sing the theme tune

Stokes retiring! Might actually cry

Not my words Lynn, the words of dom96

Massive thanks to @clarkgwent.bsky.social, I now routinely refer to “chazzers” and my kids think I’m mental

@rafesher.bsky.social you well mate? Many new signings?

Morning @jimmyjazzesq.bsky.social

If we finish 2nd and have to play France, I think we might be in record defeat territory. It’s like watching two different sports

This whiffs of a group of players that were tied the team 2 hours before kick off

We’re all watching Croatia Ghana yeah?

Watching Spinal Tap. Derek is stuck in the pod

Sorry people of North Staffordshire but I’m not remotely interested in lobby

Wonder who this guy's supporting tonight? #EngPan

That’s one of the weirdest drops I can remember seeing

My dad was ace but by golly was his music taste dire. Jim Reeves, Johnny Mathis, Helen Reddy, Carly Simon, John Denver. He once told me that Jimi Hendrix was “a bloody shit!” In fairness I went to see Don McLean with him and it was decent

Tony Hawk when asked what’s in his shoe cupboard, 1992

The difference between them facing out second string attack and us facing theirs is quite something #thecricket

“I never thought it’d apply to members of the Shitey Party Who Privatised Social Care” says Baroness Ruth of Shitey Party Who Privatised Social Care

I see Tranmere have signed Tom Conlon, good luck to him

my kind of Jubilee, the Japanese national team vs. 100 kids

It’s weird how paying people to make this sort of content didn’t turn out to be a sustainable business model for BuzzFeed.

If only we’d recently played against two teams with excellent wicketkeepers to give us an idea of their value #thecricket

Ooo debut album by the delightfully monikered Oral Habit

Always rated Baltimore death metal bands that feature parrots as lead singers

Well the cricket is going brilliantly

Back on the other site, years ago, there was a thread about the most pretentious thing people had ever overheard. Someone said they witnessed a guy at an ice cream van asking for 'two Magna'.

Haha. Me niether.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... The world's largest tape loop.

Worried about the AI data centres in this heatwave. They need a lot of constant hydration, you know. If you have one local to you, please check in on it.

We have been poor since Starmer resigned

I’m only still watching because I don’t want to miss Anthony Barry at half time

Garffeld

Only one album to be listening to in this weather

Shout out for the Joachim Löw inspired classic

Fella at number 18 put up a Facebook post saying scrap outside his if anyone wants up. Went up and absolutely leathered him all over the gaff. Not often you get an open goal like that though. 👊👊👊

Did an absolutely massive LOL at that

29 October 1983. #StokeCity 1 Coventry City 3 Briefly summarised by David Proudlove in his Packmoor Primary School weekly diary the following Monday

Absolutely love living somewhere which has a new prime minister every five minutes

By any metric this game shouldn’t be enjoyable but I’m really enjoying it

Went to Halfords earlier, on Father’s Day as well. By the power invested in me by Richard Hammond, I award myself 5000 bloke points

What if Keir Starmer turns up tomorrow with a sick fade and just point-blank refuses to admit that he is under any pressure. Is there a plan in place for that?
