@michaeltsb.bsky.social Re: today’s pod and not wanting players to go on to better things after leaving Leeds. Surely there should’ve been an honourable mention and exemption for the phenomenon that is James Milner?

🔴How a ‘Populist’ Media Has Mainstreamed the Far Right
Right-wing daily papers in the UK do not represent ‘public opinion’ – they simply reflect the radical right views of those ‘who own and run them’, argues Julian Petley

@thesquareball.net Well, listening to the last 3 eps in release order was a bit up and down. Match Ball, followed by a Member’s Show recorded before Saturday, then the chat with @grahamsmyth.bsky.social. Oof.

@robconlon.bsky.social Excellent summary of the last 7 years. I’d never actually crystallised it in that way. A proper rollercoaster.

A big win of the modern right has been to close the space in which nuance can even sit.

@thesquareball.net Imagine what it would be like for Burnley fans if they end up 3rd, with the fewest defeats, and lose in the play off semis. This is worse than our infamous George Graham season.

@stephenmangan.bsky.social Just binged The Island after listening to your DID ep. Chuckled away at all the scenarios and it’s opened my eyes to that @martinlewis.moneysavingexpert.com 🤣. Looking forward to the inevitable S2.

@thesquareball.net Stuck £10 at 14/1 on 10+ shots on target. 10 changes and we still managed 8 (0 from our centre forward). If only Joseph had contributed 2, it would’ve made up for the result.

@tmbg.bsky.social Before Manchester gig I asked whether there’d be blue canary nightlights at merch stall. Asked again at gig. Not available on UK webshop. Finally bit the bullet & ordered from US store last week & it’s on the way. Now gutted about 15% Black Friday offer. Darn, boo, dash. 😫

@thesquareball.net Fine reminder of Viduka 4, Liverpool 3. It’s mad that I got to witness it and then went to Milan 4 days later to see Dom Matteo score a rather great goal.
