“At some point, something has to matter again”. Nail on head, this leadership group are either uninterested or unwilling to make the decisions which will make England better on the field. Sack them all.

It is crucial that we are able to compete on multiple fronts and believe a change of approach will give us the strongest chance for the coming season

Wondering what the great Bill Nicholson would make of Thomas Frank. His style of play, his management of creative players, his constant downgrading of the club, his digs at the supporters… Absolute polar opposites. Our greatest ever and one of our worst ever. #FrankOut

Can’t believe Frank hasn’t been sacked yet. Just appalling, week in, week out.


This is a really beautiful bit of writing about a magical sporting moment, that can be appreciated even if you don’t care about baseball. Gave me goosebumps.

Not really his fault, but sack him anyway, IMHO.

Sack McCullum, sack Frank, save Christmas.


Heard this on the pod and was so relieved to hear how I felt expressed so succinctly. DobMob forever.

This is literally what queer fans were told to do when the WC was in Qatar. You don't have to do whataboutery when the exact situation already exists. There was constant "respect the culture" messaging around Qatar '22. Why is it only the case when that culture is homophobic?

If the host city wanted it to be an anti-LGBTQ+ game, should the countries respect that as well?



Thank you, Emi Buendia!

Letting tech people touch the arts has to be one of the worst mistakes humanity has made. They have such deep contempt for creativity, ownership, and shared experiences. Life itself is an enemy. They will strangle every industry to death to have each cough up an extra dollar.

Re Spurs fans booing etc: Spurs are charging 70, 80, 90 quid to watch a team that's won 3 league games at home in the last calendar year. Remarkable that people are turning up at all. Clubs insist on treating fans like mere consumers. Can't be surprised if they act accordingly

Harry Brook is a wonderful talent, who seems at times determined to waste it. Like a Michelin Star chef who starts juggling the plates he’s just made on the way to the table, just to liven things up. #BBCCricket #Ashes


That is a dreadful decision.


How are you taking off Bergvall here. Ridiculous
