Bad luck you Aussies #thecricket

Some brilliantly brainless cricket from Afghanistan. There were two balls left, lads

Nepal were fantastic. England got lucky, though that last over by Curran was something else #thecricket

Some goal, that #thefootball

I’ve never been to Minneapolis but in my mind it’ll always be associated with brilliant music - Prince, Husker Du, The Replacements, The Hold Steady- not murderous, fascist fuckheads.

Lads, this album 👌

*posting on twitter* oh ho, I’ve made a wry observation. Better make sure a bunch of pedophiles see it

The only thing stopping Littler winning everything for 20 years is if he gets bored of winning, or gets too heavily into the booze, or has to do a midnight flit because he diddled the taxman.

#Ominous #thecricket

this is not behavior becoming of a FIFA Peace Prize recipient.

We have the best, the most beautiful jam butty mines you’ve ever seen

I finished writing two books this year and so didn't have an awful lot of time for much other work. However, I enjoyed writing this piece, if only because I had waited quite some time to be able to get my teeth into some genuinely great Van Morrison music again. www.uncut.co.uk/reviews/van-...

Brydon’s bowling like a busted carse #thecricket

Joe fucking Root. What a player. Talk nah Aussies #thecricket

Poor batting from Basement. Just stick around for Joe ffs #thecricket

I dunno, I think that’s a bit dodgy, mate

Sad news. A great player who got runs against good bowling attacks in a period when we were generally pretty rubbish

Shocked to see this old Spanish Peanuts book translates back into English as YOU'RE GOING TO BREAK YOUR NECK, CHARLIE BROWN

First for me last night - went to a gig where we stood and watched a bloke’s back for an hour

This Liverpool side is giving off Roy Hodgson era vibes

The ability of this England team to create and then spurn match winning opportunities is infuriating #thecricket

Not good at all #thecricket

Doris, bloody hell #thecricket

Hello that old Ashes wake-up feeling #ffs

So, the Ashes eh? Currently unable to shake off the old, fatalistic feeling that because we’re playing in the bright, striped sunlight of Australia we’re bound to knack things up.

Morning everyone.

Liverpool are going to be riotously entertaining this season. Not sure it’s going to be good for the old heart, though

Absolutely !!!insane!!! to me that the UK government, lobby and newspapers litigate at length every minor infraction by the BBC, rival newspapers, or what some random columnist has posted. But all of them just carry on not even commenting about this media owner. He’s not hiding, he’s telling you!

The fact that Tyler Robinson was raised a Mormon will become as significant as the shitposting gaming memes he carved on his bullets

For everyone who now needs a quick education on the extreme far right wing Groyper movement that has been out to get Charlie Kirk for not being far right enough for years, here you go. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groypers

Julian Cope on #totp. Once we were a country

A biting critique of Thatcher’s Britain by UB40. Or woke nonsense, as it’s now known #totp

John Foxx is one of those lads who started out a bit weird and a bit great, then got weirder and greater #total

It’s been nearly 35 years but I still feel like we haven’t recovered from that fucking song being number 1 for a million years #totp

Utah Saints. The third best band to come out of the Morley blip and bleep scene #totp

Tbh, they should just have let Prince write everyone’s songs #totp

I keep reading that it was Linehan’s views which cost him his marriage. I dunno, I’m no expert etc, but maybe his wife just came to the conclusion he was a colossal prick?

SHIT! DID YOU SEE THAT? #lfc

Reform will have to reselect in Croydon, as their initial candidate for Mayor had been dead for 6 months when they selected her, Inside Croydon report Being dead is one way to pass the social media vetting but was likely to get noticed eventually insidecroydon.com/2025/08/27/f...

Turned on the telly and Tinseltown in the Rain made my heart stop for about the 1,454th time

Sorry to see Big Daz leave #lfc. Farewell you crazy bastard

England could and probably should have won that. But on the other hand, after arseing up selection, and Woakes missing the entire 2nd half of the match, you can argue they did bloody well to get as close as they did

Gah. What a game though. And what a series. 2-2 sounds about right

Hmm. Not sure it’s worth Woakes going though this

Unreal effort by Siraj. And he gets a new rock in a couple of overs

This could be torture #thecricket

Never doubted Bashir

Can definitely do without Siraj turning into Geoff Boycott tbh
