    [Politics] The French election

    I actually think the French are potentially about 7 years ahead of us, rather than lagging behind. Le Pen (the far-right, not so secretly posh, leader who wants the country to isolate and remove itself as part of European blocs...) had under 10 seats in the 2017 legislative election. She then...

    [Albion] Pascal Groß the raumdeuter - officially leaves for Dortmund :(

    In the less attacking sense, it's also Jack Hinshelwood. Who, injury aside, has been able to learn from Pascal on and off the pitch. We've got a tactically flexible, wise beyond his years, home grown star in Jack and whilst we'll all feel Pascal's departure, I've got no doubt that he'll grasp...

    [Albion] Pascal Groß the raumdeuter - officially leaves for Dortmund :(

    As reliable as they come… Auf Wiedersehen, süßer Prinz.

    [Politics] Lisa Nandy our new Culture Secretary - football insight

    Football “is part of our civic inheritance”. That’s good.

    [Football] Leicester lose appeal against Premier League PSR charge

    A reminder that Manchester City's case is extremely different to Leicester's and City will get punished when the true course of justice is able to play out. Manchester City's case is for 115 charges and it is extremely complex and that is why it is taking longer than these pretty...

    [News] Nigel Farage and Reform

    Well spotted. 2/20 from that graphic then, both for historic allegations that have been resolved. As per my post, plenty of actual unresolved allegations of a very serious nature across all parties in parliament.

    [News] Nigel Farage and Reform

    Looks like it's only Naz Shah, and the allegation of racism seems an unbelievably vague allegation. It presumably relates to the incident where she shared a post (not her own) on Facebook about Israel and Palestine in 2014 that was in poor taste (for the time). She was investigated, given a...

    [News] Nigel Farage and Reform

    Recently is the biggest stretch I think we'll see before 10pm. Most of those are under different leaderships, some over a decade ago. Eric Joyce for example was suspended and removed from the Labour Party in 2012. David Chaytor (whose name they haven't even bothered to spell correctly), Denis...

    [Albion] Fabian Hürzeler **SINGED 15/06/2024**

    A bit, but it's far more expensive and difficult to stream anything live than to record and upload (especially with multiple mics etc.). And for the audience that it would bring live (maybe a few hundred on a Tuesday morning whilst most are at work) it is probably nowhere near worth the time...

    [Music] Glastonbury 2024

    It looked like the ultimate festival moment on the box to be fair (God bless the BBC and their commitment to broadcasting things like this in 4K HDR). That run of Someone Great, Dance Yrself Clean and All My Friends was perfect. The unison between crowd and band for that final 2 minutes was...

    [Albion] Yankuba Minteh SINGS on 5 year contract

    You're probably right. I've gone back and had a look at where I read it and it's a mediocre twitter account and a few posts on Toon forums. Not really as concrete as I thought!

    [Albion] Yankuba Minteh SINGS on 5 year contract

    This is correct. Though I'd say that with us paying the £30m up front (rather than in instalments), I'd be quite surprised if the deal was favourable for Newcastle in terms of a sell-on. Seems that they needed the money in the accounts now, and they got that, I'm sure we'd not give them much...

    [Music] Glastonbury 2024

    Yeah, I think I read from some of those ITK on eFestivals that it was just a massive logistical nightmare and the opportunity to do 3 nights in Dublin came up and was the far more attractive option for the reasons you say. They seem to think that money wouldn't be a problem. No point rehearsing...

    [Music] Glastonbury 2024

    Think that Olivia Rodrigo isn't going to line up. Would put an early bet on her being the 2027 headliner if she isn't next year. I really wouldn't be surprised if it is Taylor Swift tbh. Eras tour ends in December and she can have a nice break and finally play the spot she was supposed to in...

    [Travel] Best way to Bayeux from London…

    Mémorial de Caen is probably the best war museum in Europe and well worth a visit. And a second vote for Honfleur, spent many a holiday there and it's just a lovely picturesque place to be. Great food and cider there as well.

    [Music] Glastonbury 2024

    Williams Green basically became unmanageable on the Thursdays. As there was very little on elsewhere on that day and it became known as the secret set tent (Everything, Everything, Mel C, Bastille), things got a bit dangerous and they decided to move Carhenge down there and do something new...

    [Music] Glastonbury 2024

    In the least mean way possible, don’t listen to it during Glastonbury if you dislike it? As per this thread, it’s a massive deal that most people love. It’s one of the biggest hits for the BBC and their coverage reflects that. It’s a bit like being at work during the Euros and having people...

    Yep. What a set. All My Friends looked biblical. Imagine being in that field, with the sun shining down, singing “I wouldn’t trade one stupid decision, for another five years of life” along to LCD. Magic. Edit. For those who haven't seen it, see below!
