Anthony Taylor having an absolute stinker here. PGMOL through and through.

Lovely to have Peter Drury's poetic full time monologue accompanied by a woman giving the double two fingers to Newcastle fans.

Seeing spurs in a bright yellow away kit is a lovely bit of nostalgia. Seeing them 3-0 is also nice.

Please please please let's not spend the next seven months having this conversation

This is what happens when a ref lets a player get away with whatever he wants. Caicedo should've been booked ages ago and Taylor did nothing to rein him in

Two years ago today I was in a queue on the Altiplano to get from Chile to Bolivia. I've done a lot of border crossings in the past, but none quite like this one.

As if last night wasn't sweet enough after all the misery from Bayern down the years, their most experienced players throwing tantrums because they don't know how to process being comprehensively played off the park is a beautiful cherry on top. It could've easily been 4 or 5.

Antigua Guatemala has been damaged by regular earthquakes over the centuries, and many ruined buildings were just left as they stood. It gives a unique backdrop to this football and basketball 'cancha', which skaters also use when they can. 📌 Antigua, Guatemala 🇬🇹 2024

Yes, it's easier to say in my position when you don't have a business reliant on its reach, but really there is no excuse to still be using twitter. You know what it is, you know who he is. If you're using it, you're supporting it.

We live in a mad world when a load of conservatives are angrily protesting a ban on a group of visiting football fans who tore up a European city less than a year ago.

There is not a single thing on the planet that this man won't use as a photo op if he can find a way.

Been playing around with some black and white editing recently, and I think it can work pretty well. ⚽ Dinamo Zagreb v Rijeka 📌 Stadion Maksimir, Zagreb, Croatia 🇭🇷 2022

🇵🇪 The Andean Bruce Grobbelaar! When you feel the rhythms flowing through your veins but you have a clean sheet to keep! The pure innocence of youth 🥹

That is an absolutely insane decision. What??

Hapoel Tel Aviv ultras have routinely protested their government's genocide in Gaza. Their bitterest rivals are the self-proclaimed 'most racist club in the world', Beitar Jerusalem. They don't hide how they feel about them. ⚽ Beitar Jerusalem v Hapoel Tel Aviv 📌 Teddy Stadium, Jerusalem 2023

“Maybe I met him on some boys’ trip? I feel like I’ve seen his penis before. Have we ever gone swimming at the same time? You have a mole right here under your rib cage, right?” said Trump

It's beautiful that as Tommy's morons were descending on Westminster, Englishmen called Eberechi Eze, Ethan Nwaneri and Chukwunonso Madueke (in for England's Bukayo Saka) were on the pitch doing big things for The Arsenal. That's my club, my London, my England, and it's never going back.

Gone for a different type of ball today lads #T20Blast #FinalsDay

@theonion.com admin now wondering why they're getting flooded with comments from England

We're back

I'm looking for a good home for 100+ rugby league programmes in superb condition from the 1940s, 50s and 60s which belonged to a dear friend of mine, now gone. Suggestions and proposals in my replies, please, and RTs appreciated. It is a rather special collection. Thank you.

Presumably if Liverpool play at the Emirates later this season with Salah, Ekitike, Wirtz, VVD and Frimpong all injured, still have the better of the game but lose to a 1 in a 1000 free kick, we'll hear endlessly about their bad mentally in big matches?

Three years ago today I took my camera into a stadium for the first time. When it comes to wild derbies, I decided to start with the best of the lot. ⚽ FK Partizan v FK Crvena Zvezda 📌 Stadion Partizan, Belgrade, Serbia 🇷🇸 2022

I see PGMOL are busy improving football again

Lower Block Editions, 45 and counting... and this loyal supporter has 'em all. Without customers, small independent brands and publications simply wouldn't exist. Cheers to all those who've dipped into their pockets over the last few years and bought a copy. LB x lowerblock.com/shop/?filter...

3 years ago today I got on a plane for the first time after coming up with the 'Who We Are' idea and arrived in this city for one of the most infamous fixtures in football. Let me know if you recognise where it is...

Comuna 13 was once the most dangerous barrio in Medellín and this heavily overlooked space was used by gangs for public executions. Its change into a 'cancha' for basketball & football embodies the transformation of the community into a vibrant hub of art and music. 📌 Medellín, Colombia 🇨🇴 2024

Decided to have a rebrand of the account and actually put my name to my pictures. Felt like being nameless had the look of one of those aggregator accounts calling itself something like 'Casual Ultras Global', so for those who didn't already know, this is me!

Incredible that United spent hundreds of millions, played genuinely well at times and still have 1 point from 6. Fergie cursed them or something

In sanitised PL stadiums this is a remarkable banner to see. Fair play to Palace fans. #Marinakis (Photo from the other place via Google, not mine)

Lazio fans greet their city rivals across the Olimpico in the Derby della Capitale. ⚽ Lazio v Roma 📌 Stadio Olimpico, Rome, Italy 🇮🇹 2023

Just wait until Our Nigel hears that another football shirt has been released with the national flag in the wrong colours

I didn't even realise it until now, but this is the book I've always wanted Jonathan Wilson to write. It'll be brilliant.

It's not all about the Superclásico. Home fans welcome their fiercest rivals to the pitch in Buenos Aires' other big derby. ⚽ Independiente v Racing 📌 Estadio Presidente Peron, Avellaneda, Argentina 🇦🇷 2023

No matter how many times they're shown the overwhelming majority of the country aren't racist morons, our media and political classes will keep acting like we are

Farthest I've been: N: Stockholm 🇸🇪 (59° N) E: Byron Bay 🇦🇺 (153° E) S: Melbourne 🇦🇺 (37° S) W: Falealupo 🇼🇸 (172° W) Cool thing about Falealupo was, at the time, it was the final bit of land before the international date line, so the sunset there was the last sunset in the world.

Always well worth a peruse: the best photos from Euro 2025

I hear Brazil international Joelinton is being humiliated by a kid in Year 10.

Usually I want nothing but failure for Barca but I really hope this is the fresh start that turns things around for him. He deserves it.

Hello friends. It's my birthday today, and the best present you can give an independent artist like me, is to share my work around so that more people can find what I do, so that maybe I can keep doing my thing, It is tough out there rn. Either that or a winning Euromillions ticket. Thanks 💛

Please don't interpret this as a cry for help because things are fine, but I am available for written / podcast / radio work for the Euros. Not going on hols till after the tournament so I am around and UK based for the entirety.

This is perfect.

Outside and inside, is this football's most iconic architecture? ⚽ Milan v Napoli 📌 San Siro, Milan, Italy 🇮🇹 2022

Thanks for coming, Ben Duckett

PSG are very good at football
