A great way to fight back against AI taking away work from creatives is to buy art by actual humans. (Reply to this post with your own art/website etc. But only if you’re an organic life-form). www.worldofmoose.com

Upcoming matches: 9/1 Fulham-Watford 11/1 Gladbach-Bayern 12/1 Leipzig-Werder 14/1 Leverkusen-Mainz 15/1 Bochum-St Pauli 18/1 Kiel-Hoffenheim 21/1 Wigan-Burton 22/1 Leipzig-Sporting CP

“Ninety minutes are up. It all comes down to this. Drama in Dublin. This penalty to send the Republic Of Ireland to the World Cup…”

One more Bundesliga game to go before a 🎄of EFL matches: 22/12 Bochum-Heidenheim 26/12 Derby-WBA 29/12 Sheff Utd-WBA 30/12 AFC Wimbledon-Gillingham 01/01 Crawley-Charlton 04/01 Watford-Sheff Utd and 09/01 Fulham-Watford (FA Cup)

So, the “abridged version” of It’s A Wonderful Life on Amazon Prime. Avoid like the plague. Essentially cuts after George is thumped by Mr Welch and deletes the *entire* Pottersville sequence, coming back for Auld Lang Syne, completely missing the whole point of the film!

Prepping for #FCBFCH at the weekend. A couple of mildly interesting discoveries: Tuesday’s red card was Manuel Neuer’s first in 867 senior career games. And DFB-Kapitän Joshua Kimmich was once, a long time ago, a team-mate of Heidenheim’s Denis Thomalla (at RBL in 3.Liga and 2.Bundesliga).

Encouraging a future commentator…

Next few games coming up: 3/12 Huddersfield v Wigan 4/12 RB Leipzig v Eintracht Frankfurt* 7/12 Bayern München v Heidenheim 8/12 Wolfsburg v Mainz 10/12 Leeds v Middlesbrough 11/12 Stuttgart v Young Boys 12/12 København v Hearts *highlights

Terrific edition of #DerKlassiker! Always a privilege. #BVBFCB

The thing that really terrifies me about AI generated images is what it enables terrible ‘footy banter’ pages to do

Henrik Larsson somehow looks both 50 and 15

My cries of “but it’s November” were ignored…

I am right in thinking everyone wants to Rejoin the EU aren't I? Like if you do RP if you really do

Trying to read a story on the once great Express & Star’s website is now next to impossible and a thoroughly unpleasant experience. Do the owners actually think people enjoy wading through something that looks like this?

Spent a very pleasing half an hour reading through this excellent @optaanalyst.bsky.social piece on one game wonders in the Premier League. Some long-forgotten and evocative names… Orpheo Keizerweerd! I was actually witness to Jarosław Fojut’s only game. theanalyst.com/2024/11/prem...

1/ I’ve become an unofficial evangelist for Bluesky. (I don’t work here.) As a former dir of product mgmt @Twitter, I’m impressed w/ the innovative and courageous choices Bluesky has made. They’ve come up with a better way to do social media. Some have asked me how I explain this outcome. A🧵>>>

But Emily loved him.

Jeremy Clarkson, who owes his fame & fortune in large part to the BBC, sneers at the brilliant @vicderbyshire.bsky.social for being ‘classic BBC’ when she uses *his own words* to describe his position.

Now that she owns Jeremy Clarkson (net worth £55m) Victoria Derbyshire's family have to pay inheritance tax on him when she dies.

(Go West) Life is peaceful there (Go West) In the open air (Go West) Where the skies are blue (Go West) This is what we're gonna do.

Hungary-Germany is live on @viaplay’s Youtube channel tonight. Link hard to find directly on YT, but I think it’s here: www.youtube.com/live/fE0Cija... #HUNGER

Jeremy Clarkson is turning up to the protest tomorrow. A reminder that he bought his 312-acre farm in 2012 for £4.25million in HIS OWN WORDS so that he: *would not be required pay death duties on the land*

Man who told The Times in 2021 that he’d only bought his £4.25m farm to avoid paying inheritance tax to lead protest against inheritance tax 😂🤣😂 www.thesun.co.uk/news/3179317...

If you feel the same, spread the word.

Anyone else having issues like this? Showing as unseen interactions, but when I open the app there’s nowhere near that number.

I’m sure we’re not far from the day Paul Dacre comes clean and admits the Mail’s just been one big wind-up…

Okay, seriously, we're at 9.4K. Can you help us get to 10K by lunchtime? My boss would go ballistic if we managed it. Please and thanks. 🇪🇺

Not gonna lie, to have already 10% of my X following on here is really encouraging. Especially when I suspect a lot on the other place are bot accounts…

RNIB 👏👏🤣🤣

Fabulous family Sunday at the beach. Life’s little joys.

Thought Germany were excellent tonight. Musiala and Wirtz electric as twin 10s, Kleindienst offers more all-round than Füllkrug. Andrich such a stable midfield base. 7-0 by no means flattering #GERBIH #UNL

On #GERBIH world feed comms tonight. On air shortly www.youtube.com/live/_V6qJoo.... Free in UK and selected other regions I believe…

Who ya gonna call? 👻👻👻

As someone who loved working on Ligue 1’s world feed at the height of Lyon’s noughties dominance, to see where they are now is really sad. (See also Bordeaux).

Great to see so many familiar faces and voices from football broadcasting appearing here. If you’re not already, give these a follow: @raecomm.bsky.social @garytaphouse.bsky.social @johnrodercomm.bsky.social @chrissharples.bsky.social @tonyjonescomm.bsky.social @dbeckett.bsky.social

First Christmas lunch of the year today. 15th November. Turkey, pigs in blankets, sprouts. The lot. Felt very wrong but very right.

Ahead of Saturday’s game v Bosnia-Herzegovina, I looked up Germany’s previous four senior men’s internationals in the city of Freiburg. Blimey: 2006: Luxembourg 7-0 2004: Malta 7-0 2002: Kuwait 7-0 2000: Liechtenstein 8-2 Nailed on 0-0 then.

Upcoming commentary games in the remainder of November: 16/11 Germany-Bosnia & Herzegovina 19/11 Hungary-Germany 23/11 WBA-Norwich 24/11 Holstein Kiel-Mainz 26/11 Sunderland-WBA 27/11 D.Zagreb-Dortmund 28/11 Cercle-Hearts 30/11 #DerKlassiker Dortmund-Bayern

I wonder what the last ever tweet will be?

Isn’t the spelling and grammar so much better here?

Anyone who has made the leap here and is looking for football people to follow, this is a great way of finding people quickly
