I genuinely cannot believe how badly these multi million pound businesses are run. Barcelona, Man U, Juve, Spurs. Is it because the fall in revenues from not winning anything is small compared to the (rent seeking tbh) gains through tv deals and sponsorships? Surely there’s an incentive to get...

That’s the most amazing 10 mins of scripted tv I’ve ever seen I think. I’ve watched that sequence maybe 30 times. The sound of the feet on the floorboards…

Was wondering about Photek here. He’s now just a really boring film music producer. It’s like- the dullest most functional thing he could do

Realised yesterday I know the chorus of Circle in the Sand by Belinda Carlisle. Also Leave a Light On. It’s not like that’s an impressive feat of recall but it’s a bit weird. I won’t have heard those songs more than 5 times each in my life.

The Mbappe thing was always bullshit. They were never going to bid. It was all a performance to show the player they were interested before making a deal in Jan to pick him up on a free next summer

Yeah it’s a shame that racists and lunatics have grabbed onto it too. But it doesn’t make it a bad starting point. Also it 100% doesn’t mean it was done on purpose with some sort of 1 releases virus! 2 ???? 3 profit! type scheme on china’s part. A powerful authoritarian state fucked up, lied...

I mean it’s barley even a conspiracy theory to suggest this came from chinese lab. Of course it fucking did. There’s a bat virus lab in the city where the bat virus started. There’s your origin.

All true but the sad bit is this was all conditional on the team’s success. I would hate to imagine the amount of shit the team would have got for taking the knee if Muller had scored and Germany gone on to win. Sterling would be the scapegoat, and he’d have got it way worse than Saka or...

One of the best things about football chants is that you can hear the regional dialects in them. The Liverpool chants and songs are very scouse. The Celtic version of YNWA is audibly Glaswegian. I guess that’s part of the ‘yob’ thing that classist snob Corpsey referred to above- there’s a voice...

The guy who says Southgate should get the job must be well chuffed with this video. The guy who'd almost lost his voice and wanted Pardew must be gutted he hadn’t lost it entirely.

I’d take a winning side. I’m (probably) over half way through my life now and I want to see England win a tournament. I’ve seen 3 semis and that’s it. More boring sides- Greece 04, Spain 10- have won major tournaments so being interesting isn’t a pre requisite. But yeah there were times...

Isn’t it pretty common to change your team from game to game? And there haven’t been massive changes game to game. They used 3 at the back a lot over the last few years anyway. it’s going to be interesting over the next few days as people get used to the fact that England are both boring and...

Don’t get me wrong, I ripped to my iTunes first. I’m not an animal.

No thread has ever killed me like this thread. I can't work out which one hurts the most but I think it's Lee Perry Arkology. I bought that. I showed off to the girls in 6th form. I've given it to a charity shop.

There's one around football that really pisses me off where one eyed fans of (INSERT CLUB BUT MORE LIKELY PLAYER HERE) compare their fave to another amazing player and say there's no competition. They use phrases like "My striker is clear" and "There are levels to this game" or similar. It's...

Where can I find this mix?

It was really good, saw them play a bit of it live at a festival and it sounded great there as well. And the Avalon Emerson rmx of Sugar for the Pill was fantastic too

Like this a lot. It kickstarted a 6 month trend of half decent unofficial dnb remixes of rnb tracks eg this, which isn’t bad

Burchill’s politics is harder to read but essentially she’s just a horrible, terrible person. Looking at the Tommy Robinson in Russia stuff, seems to be the case there too. Sure he’s a racist nationalist but that’s just an outgrowth of the fact that he’s a massive cunt.

Another example of good, late, Weatherall strings. Second half of the track only, 4:30 or so onwards.
