Each of Leeds 3 wins have been followed by no wins for 3 games afterwards - 1 win, 1 draw & 2 losses per 4-game series. We’re now one game away from the end of the first 3 series of 4 games, and if the trend continues then Villa will be a draw. But after that … 😬 #LUFC

There’s the Farke bingo card “still on a one-point-per-game average” line we fully expected post-game 🙄 Leeds will be nowhere near 1 PPG after the next 4 games, so saying it’s all fine now is pointless & Farke blaming everything but himself. Leeds are in BIG trouble. 49ers need to act now #LUFC !
DF: "Difficult run with three away games in four. Never in the bottom three, still on a one-point-per-game average."

Says Gnonto was an option off the bench, but they felt the extra two weeks of training after today would be better than risking him today after so long out, including a surgery #lufc

Today is a “must win”, so here’s your Leeds lottery question: If we lose today & then get the almost 0pts expected from the run of games Villa to Liverpool, which of the 3 “winnable” games following that does Farke get sacked, to give a new manager the January window to try and save us? #LUFC

That 6 point gap is now only a 4 point gap due to West Ham winning today, irritatingly. Leeds have not had a great weekend, and I expect Wolves to have a “new manager bounce” just as we’re heading into 6 weeks of almost un-winnable games 🙄 #LUFC fan finding it hard to stay positive 😬
Nice that Leeds have a 6 point gap to the drop zone already 💪🏻 #LUFC

My first move in #FM26 will be to bring Archie Gray back to #LUFC to play alongside his brother Harry, and then build a Leeds team around them. Not deluded, just optimistic 😆

Spotify’s founder, Daniel Ek, is another techno-fascist billionaire.

He’s invested in AI that specializes in war, surveillance and violence, so it’s no surprise he’s fine with running ICE ads on Spotify.

If you haven’t already, cancel your Spotify subscriptions. Let’s make them feel like Disney+.

Just listened to Chris Mason on Radio 4 defending BBC's excessive coverage of Farage & Reform. I was outraged by his response to legitimate criticism. I no longer trust the BBC's political coverage (actually I haven't for some time, but the BBC's behaviour has grown even worse of late).

“I’m old enough to remember when mainstream British politicians, who should know better, stirred up racial hatred as a path to power. You’re old enough to remember too because it was last Tuesday. And it was Robert Jenrick”

Cathartic anger at flag-flying racism.

Golf hasn’t interested me in years. Even when actually representative. However, it has taken a crowd of ignorant Seppos to really add the enjoyment factor to this Ryder Cup win.
Love this message to the cheating, felonious, treasonous, 5-times-draft-dodging morally bankrupt serial bankrupt Trump 🤣

I posted this 3 hours ago, and then immediately Europe started to properly “Leeds” it and almost threw their massive lead away. At least it’s retained now, well played Lowry #rydercup 😬🎉😎
#RyderCup 2025 is an allegory for the United States in 2025. Vulgar, inappropriate yelling about how great they are, and insulting others, when they aren't great at all.

Yesterday, the largest far-right protest in UK history marched through London, led by racist Tommy Robinson.

Today, we say: They don’t speak for us — and they won’t have the last word.

This Wednesday we come together against Trump and for a better future. Do everything to be there.

As expected, Charlie Kirk's killer, Tyler Robinson, was a black trans muslim Democrat... oh, hang on... sorry - he was the son of white Christian Republican parents in Utah and was taught to use guns from an early age. What a fucking surprise.
