Simon Jordan on TalkSport, unchallenged yet again.

As a Talksport employee, I am embarrassed by this rebuttal of what Neville said. This moron pontificates without question. It is bonkers.

And yeah, i'll probably be sacked. Fuck it.

Think Oasthouse is actually my favourite Alan. That’s going nowhere.

Rarely have I agreed with anything more, I have never thought to myself this pint would be better if something was doing a bad version of Linger by The Cranberries too loud to ignore but too quiet to make out a single word.

Just become a load of sadmin watching it hasn’t it.

David Hartrick @davidhartrick.bsky.social · May 19

Always been a huge VAR fan.

David Hartrick @davidhartrick.bsky.social · May 18

Watching 1883 and then rolling into The Last of Us S2, as you might have guessed.

David Hartrick @davidhartrick.bsky.social · May 18

American scriptwriters, replace actual drama in your TV shows with constant unremitting bleakness to really make viewing them feel like hour after hour of sadmin. No one could ever get sick of that.

New Errant Thought, and it’s a weird old one…

Can’t explain that one.

David Hartrick @davidhartrick.bsky.social · May 13

Ta! Was one that I couldn’t explain and they’re always the best ones

David Hartrick @davidhartrick.bsky.social · May 13

Didn’t like this one did you.

David Hartrick @davidhartrick.bsky.social · May 13

You’re closer than you can imagine to something we will actually do.

Guy at a services plucking up the courage to grab a bongo mag from the top shelf in the shop as we watched, few false starts but when he did it got caught on the plastic shield at the front and collapsed it, whole shelf’s worth of grot came down leaving him in a sea of filth.

I nearly passed out.

Huge respect for you Grace but the cricket ep of Bluey is the single best explainer as to a) why sport is important, but also b) why we’re all here on social media to talk and write about it, and still love it. Never read a piece that understood sport so perfectly, I cried joyful tears at the end.

Grave Robber-tson @gemofamara.com · Apr 7

we need a social media app exclusively for childless adults so i don't have to hear about whatever bluey is again

Yeah that’s it, it’s good but at the moment it’s embarrassed to be a comic book
