My colleagues & I have taken a huge gamble to set up @thenerve.news We’re trying to build a new independent publication from the ground up. Social media is our only distribution for now.

Sharing this article in your networks would make a huge difference. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏

There is intent, no matter how hard or slow he made contact with Tarky, whether he goes down or not, that is a Red card all day long. Initially I was shocked they didn’t do anything about it, but really just used to the fact that the PGMOL still has an agenda with us.

Matty Dillon @mdillon7.bsky.social · 10d

In today’s game it’s a red all day.

Andrew Jai Presly @andrewjaipresly.bsky.social · 10d

Not exactly Big Dunc on Paul Sharner but they shouldn’t be relying on Tarkowski not being a diving cheat should they. It’s a 🔴 if he was one &/or the PL weren’t irredeemably corrupt #UTFT 👊🏼 💙🤍
