we are behind brentford in the table six months in. they sold their captain, two top scorers, their goalkeeper and three of their starting backline. plus had their manager leave.
how has the meaning of that fact not sunk in to more people in understanding what is going on at tottenham?

Reading and listening to takes saying you can’t move the dial on Thomas Frank. Yes you can.
- why bring on Palhinha when down by 2?
- before sending off why constantly not playing through passes when obvious runs being made?
It’s just so frustrating.

Kremlin operative Kirill Dmitriev is a director of Gazprombank (which channels payments for Russian oil & gas) & Transneft (giant oil & gas pipeline company). "Work with the US in the Arctic" = destroy the world's climate system to enrich Russian & US fossil fuel kleptocrats.

Join me again this Christmas Eve in the Patriot Zone.
One of my favourite EVER days on Twitch was Christmas Eve 2023 when the viewers and I created the most patriotic festive room and we had the BEST time. Let's do it again this Christmas.

The easiest position in any company for artificial intelligence to replace is the CEO and the CFO. They certainly couldn't be any less heartless

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

I say this with full understanding that Liverpool is going to win but Liverpool’s management of the last 20 minutes of this match is professionally embarrassing. #COYS

The fact that Frank has had to make zero tactical changes after Xavi went off because we just ping it to the wings and cross it in, so we don't need anyone in the middle says a lot about us... #COYS
