Two years ago today we lost Motty. This was my tribute cartoon...

Should be disallowed, Hudson Odoi isn't allowed to shoot into that corner.

I thought Civil War was a bit of a mess when I saw it in the cinema but watched it again and it's much better on second viewing.

(Bit niche this) but maybe they're all just fans of The West Wing Weekly podcast

Facebook keeps trying to get me to buy some magical sleep powder made by Georgie Thompson and Ben Ainslie

It's because you can't leave your house without it costing £40 I reckon

Should just say he's training an AI model and they'll apologise for bothering him

aw poor boomers

Come and rinse my marketing budget the night before Sloan

Aside from maybe the Brighton promotion game, this is the best atmosphere I've ever experienced at the Riverside

Just cannot see any of the teams likely to finish 5th or 6th in the championship play offs getting promoted. They'll just be Norwich style cannon fodder for whoever misses out from Burnley, Sheffield Utd, Sunderland

She's extremely Truss-y

Not pretty

One thing that surprised me at Boro yesterday was how much the fans have turned on Ayling - big cheer when he got subbed. Seems a bit harsh to me, don't think he's anywhere close to being the main problem.

Salt in the wounds stuff on match of the day with Adama and Tav both absolutely flying in the Premier League.

As bad as I've seen in a long time today. A team much more likely to finish in the bottom half than the play offs. Zero positives of any kind.

At the time I remember me, @simonfarrant.bsky.social , @orbinho.bsky.social , @oilysailor.bsky.social and a few others discussing what we should call it instead of xG but never settling on anything. Probably would have pushed on that had we known it would end up being a big thing.

Could not have fathomed when I was sat reading the draft of Sam Green's foundational blog post about it in the manky "kitchen" at Opta's Waterloo office that xG would end up being such a prominent stat on outlets like the BBC.

My work Teams profile pic was uploaded shortly after I joined the company, 10 years ago. The transition from that to my actual face when I turn the camera on must be like the bit from Last Crusade where the guy drinks from the wrong grail.

Sad news this. RIP Paddy.

£50 that the Chancellor's anonymous former colleague is a little grumpy about having to pay VAT on little Timmy's school fees

We now go live to Chris Mason for his take on the 'quirky and tantalising goings on across the Atlantic'

Bring back Aitor

Iling Junior has been absolutely dreadful tonight, miles off it.

“Sue Cook’s pulled out”

This bus campaign is my personality now.

may be beside the point/extremely obvious but i feel like you can only ignore extreme wealth inequality for so long before it metastasizes into something that fundamentally remakes and destabilizes the world by giving people access to so much money that they are fully above consequence

You don't hear much from GaryVee these days do you?

This was quite a read

The side quests in this Robocop game on Xbox are hilarious. Just done one where Robocop has to take a get well soon card around the precinct to get various officers to sign it.
