Apologies in advance, but I can't resist. The retirement of Craig Miles means we can put a line under this 'quiz' question: What do Ashwell Prince, Charlie Macdonell, Daryl Mitchell, Dan Lawrence, Alex Davies & Steve Davies have in common? They have all be run out by Miles in first-class cricket.

A. They're nasty selfish attention-seeking cunts.

Will Pietersen tell us how to raise charity money through celebrity Park Lane dinners & slick golf days at Wentworth, & T20 matches at the Oval, but make the money magically disappear without ever accounting for it. Two links. register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk/en/charity-s...

Hey, big boy, what's your name? (by Steve Barlow) www.kumb.com/article.php?... #koyi #whufc

No clue why your captain and England international is not taking tnat.

NEW | A long edition… A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATELY UNBELIEVABLE EVENTS There are a lot of things going in the media coverage of Jason Arday and his memoir is part of a long history of dubious autobiographies. brokenbottleboy.substack.com/p/a-series-o...

Burnham is very lucky to have unearthed Starmer's genie at exactly the time the public is realising Farage is a crook and Polanski is a twat.

Fucking hell as if receiving automated rejection letters for jobs wasn't bad enough.

Life lessons from Ian Fiveankles. . .

Well this appears to be doing some numbers. Excellent crowd work by one member of the crowd. Feel free to join the nice people telling me I did a good job, or the large proportion of keyboard warriors telling me how they would have dealt with it better. 🙄

I don't usually write personal stuff, but a few words about my experience of being interviewed by Gary Stevenson. It started with a nice chat, comparing taste in hoodies... then the tone changed. He demanded to know why I'd deleted a tweet criticising him.

Per the new @privateeyenews.bsky.social, while David Sullivan was banned from contact with the women's and youth team, Karren Brady spoke in the Lords in support of an attempt to dilute the new football regulator's fit and proper test by narrowing the scope of civil cases that could be considered.

Unironically just want to read about Attenborough the channel controller who made snooker, saved rugby league and did stuff like this….

"Become king - they let you do what the fuck you want."

Robert fucking Jenrick

I think he’s got to bold enough to take Paq off early sometimes.

Was Gullis in the audience last night @mattgreencomedy.com to take inspiration from Sir GGG?

Oh man. Such sad news. Our legend, the incredible Billy Bonds has died. How he never played for England is beyond me. What a player, what a man. R.I.P Bonzo ⚒️💔

Always assumed this legend would live forever. Today I'll be taking my usual seat in the stand named after him. Rest in peace Billy.

RIP Billy Bonds 😢 my hero when I was a kid ⚒️ I remember waving the match day programme through the gates after a home game at Upton Park and rain-soaked Billy, a mountain of a man, coming over to sign my programme ⚒️

Absolutely gutted. RIP Bonzo 💔

rich dudes got freakier after butlers fell out of fashion, like say what you will about having domestic servants but clearly it was some sort of moderating force on old rich dudes having a fancy man follow you around saying shit like "oh dear sir, that wouldn't be very becoming"

Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement. Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph Because this does NOT add up! No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies… 🧵1/9

We call all agree to hate Tottenham and Sheffield United.

England on day one vs England on day two.

Best article I’ve read on Day One #Ashes

At this very moment Chris Mason is writing his "Five reasons why this spells disaster for Labour" piece. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Labour MP Brian Leishman: "The Government has surrendered to... the vile rhetoric of Reform. Does the Home Secretary not see that removing the legal obligation to support asylum seekers who will be otherwise destitute, is as far away from Labour Party principles and values as we can get?"

If they don't call this the Quorn Laws then the country truly is gone.

Now feeling quite embarrassed about wanting a Labour government for fifteen years. Feels like that period from the early eighties when I amassed every single Dire Straits album. Don’t know what I was thinking.

Day one highlights:

Periodically, this @pftompkins.bsky.social bit about the quality clientele he would encounter during his time working at a novelty hat shop will bubble up in my brain and then, having delighted me once again, will recede into the depths to await its next surprise visit...

KWP. 3-1. ALL OVER NOW!!! YOU EYE RONS. ⚒️

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

Always amazed by people who have watch parties for their favourite TV shows. If I was ever forced to attend one, it would be remembered for me shouting ‘CAN EVERYONE SHUT THE FUCK UP PLEASE?’

Ok, it's done. It's out. No 'beta version' excuses allowed now. Here's the review of the full release version of Football Manager 2026. trackrecordmedia.org/2025/11/05/f...

Southampton have sacked Will Still with the side 21st in the Championship following the 2-0 loss to Preston.😇 .

Make that an hour. Proper performance from the team today and a drop of hope splashed into to the rather gloomy outlook. Might actually watch a football highlights programme later. #WHUNEW

Some seriously committed and determined performances from West Ham players there to see out the win. Fist pumps for tackles and fouls won from Bowen, Paquetá, Diouf + more since the 60th minute

Every Saturday afternoon on 5 live; Ian Dennis is consistently outstanding; commentary and score updates with the context to them all; Radio at its best when Denno is operating.
