  1. Monday Aug 5: Ok well us signing a new goalkeeper was probably the last transfer rumour I expected, but it feels like there may be something to this one, as if you were making up a bullshit rumour this doesn’t seem like the kind of thing you’d come up with, so therefore I’m assuming there’s something in it. I know nothing about the lad in question, Giorgi Mamardashvili, but he was meant to be boss at the Euros and he’s been Valencia’s number one for three seasons. The suggestion is he wants to come here but not while Alisson is here, so the plan is to get him now and then loan him out again, preferably to a PL club. That club is claimed to be Bournemouth, who also want to sign him. Ah, Richard Hughes obviously didn’t change his password when he left! Maybe I'm imagining this, but Alisson’s time here feels like it is coming to a close and we’ve probably only got one more year of him, maybe two at most. He can still be great for many more years but it feels like he’s going to want a change of scenery and he might fancy that Saudi money. Achteberg reckons we were close to losing him this summer, so it makes sense to have a succession plan and if this fella is the best out there then sound, go and get him now. Meanwhile, saw a headline on news now saying "Everton want Matip". As if! Firstly, you don't go overnight from the heights he had at Liverpool to slumming it with Everton. He'd be mental to do that. Joel has been building a spectacular house back in Germany. He didn't live anywhere fancy when he was here and he was putting his money into building his dream house in Germany. I assume near Schalke where we got him from but I don't know. He'll be looking to go to a German club if possible, and if its not possible he'll be doing a damn sight better than Everton. He'd probably retire before signing a contract there. The other reason this seems ridiculous is that Everton wouldn't want him either. He's not their type of centre half and his skillset wouldn't be needed there. That isn't even a criticism, it's just a fact. They need the big, physical, defend your own box and put your body on the line type of defender. They don't have a place for an elegant, ball playing, adventurous maverick who loves his mazy runs. Also today, Solanke is closing in on a move to Spurs that will net us around £8m because of a clause Edwards put in when he sold him to Hughes. Those two will have the cigars out when that deal is finalised. Or instead, how about getting those new contracts sorted? For us to be going into this season with no deals for Trent or Virgil is fucking appalling. Players are even making jokes about Trent and Madrid now. Either Nunez or Diaz today (difficult to make out which one said it) made a crack about him and Real Madrid, and a couple of weeks ago there was a clip of Curtis joking at the end of his press conference that "I can't believe no-one asked me about Trent". Either there's something going on, or they know there's nothing in it and they're having a laugh about it. If he had a contract it wouldn't be an issue though.

(She then went on to parrot a load of racist bullshit.). What else do you think you're being labelled Far Right for, you stupid racist gobshite?

  6. I’m sorry to start a thread on this but we have to talk about the menace that is @Bob The man has posted some pictures of breakfasts that he has cooked with his own hands and they should be considered war crimes. The man is a fucking cunt and should be locked up or at least shot in the knee caps. Ive never have had an arch enemy before but Bob has strode in with his shit eggs and become that man. I fucking hate Bob and I can’t take it anymore. Let’s all club together and take down the demon that is Bob. Fuck you, Bob… fuck you to death. Thank you for listening.

  7. Ireland finishing in 18th and coming within a whisker of winning a few more medals (Adeleke in the 400m and the women's 4x400m spring to mind) is great for us. Our best ever showing with 4 golds and 3 bronze medals.

  10. There is probably a 0.000001% chance the actual picture is a turd on her stomach. Not zero, but close to it. The internet, and twitter specifically, is a fucking cesspit. I saw a post last night that said NATO had fired a nuclear missile at a Russian airbase, with the guy who posted it declaring repeatedly that he’d seen it from “40 reliable outlets” and then posted 4 or 5 times a screenshot from just one of them while people pointed out what the picture was actually from, and then he just fucked off out of the conversation and left it there. Disinformation on that, and other platforms, is bringing the world to its knees, so even the tongue in cheek stuff can fuck off. I don’t like or dislike Jordan - no real opinion on her, but misrepresentation, at the minimum, is miserable.

  12. I put a bit of weight on over the summer and have being doing that intermittent fasting for the past 3 weeks. Try and only eat between 1900 and 2200 with at least 10000 steps a day. I’ve shed 4kg over the past 3 weeks and now back to 91kg. Going to carry it on until I get back to 87kg.

  15. We’re currently on holiday in Montana (where my wife is from) and we drove through Bozeman on Friday before his rally. I was desperate to go, it would have been hilarious to see him and all his dumb fuck followers… …It would also have been some claim to fame to say “I was there” had he been assassinated. Still, I bought this in Vegas as a birthday present for my Dad…

  24. More Satanism and nonce worshipping incoming from the French if the opening ceremony was anything to go by. Who knows what they'll pull out of the bag tonight. Probably a reenactment of the death of Joan of Arc but this time with a live British nun in place of Joan. Despite French efforts to ruin it, still an enjoyable games, although Preston could have imo done a better job. Better food for one.

  29. Sevilla game is the only one I’ve watched from our preseason. Dont think the result or the performance tells much at all really. Game was played at a lower pace and intensity than you’ll get in a league match, against an opponent one week further away from their first league match. Anyway it’s good to win, and we did produce a few quality moments. Still thought our high pressing didnt work too well, and as long as they bothered we also had a few problems playing through their high pressing (mostly at the start of the first half to be fair, they didnt bother or manage to press a lot after that) So nothing much in it for me, Ipswich away will be a totally different thing. From the individual performances I thought Jota and Diaz were our best players. Also Grevenberch decent at times, and Trent showed his attacking quality on a couple of occasions. Quansah mostly solid and calm, expect him to start in the league. Stephenson from the short time he played looked good. And a brilliant finish from Nyoni, great piece of skill that. On the more disappointing side it looks more and more to me like Salah isn’t the player he once was. He did produce a few brilliant passes, which seems to be his best attribute now. But his 1 v 1 play and finishing didnt look convincing at all.

  33. That brings it back to the "legitimate concerns" nonsense. They've been radicalised by a constant drip-drip-drip from certain politicians, the Daily Mail and Express, the BBC's platforming of lunatics because they ensure an audience of supporters and haters and social media echo chambers. I think they honestly don't see themselves as far right or even racist for the most part. "Are we the baddies?"

  37. When it comes to exercise, there's not really a right or wrong, just try different things and pick the ones that you actually enjoy or don't despite. As long as its challenging enough to get your heart rate up it'll be enough. It has to be something you like because you'll not stick at it otherwise. In terms of shifting weight though, it's 75% diet, you don't REALLY burn much from exercise, but you should be moving more because you'll get fitter and paired with weight loss, will be best for your health. It's not really about doing anything fancy, there's no magic trick or exercise but the fitness industry likes to sell the idea that the next thing you buy will be the thing that finally works for you. It's just about sticking to the plan and making steady progress and doing it for long enough to see results, the reason people so often fail is because they quit just before they start to see the reward for the effort and consistency, but that's not sexy or exciting and doesn't sell products. Consistency over intensity. You're much better off doing just enough but often than going all out on some fancy exercise plan and buying lots of fitness gadgets, but just getting bored after 3 weeks because you're not actually enjoying what you've signed up to.

  38. I deleted my twitter account after someone I followed decided to share video of those two football fans being shot in Belgium (? Holland?), but started a new one to engage with the film festival material we were putting out. When I've checked in there the past week, despite being left-winged, I'm quite appalled at the fascist, right-wing material being pushed on the "for you" channel. Howie's correct. Delete the app.
