Not posh enough for my village, not young enough for my football team, not thin enough for my jeans. My views are my own - but then, who else's would they be?
Hampton in Arden, England
Joined February 2009
As my Twitter gets more ranty and sweary, I've decided to at least give one degree of freedom from normal life by changing my twitter handle. I mean, my opinions are flawless, but there's a voice in my head saying I don't really want to have that awkward conversation with HR.

Idea: Call Smethwick, tell them we all want Christmas off then come up with some ruse that means the game has to be called off...the weather is mild and dry so... HOW ABOUT FLOODLIGHT FAILURE!? No-one will ever guess we just want to get pissed on Christmas day!

Another @MidlandLeague side call off due to "floodlight failure", like pub league going out on the piss on a Saturday then saying "pitch unplayable" from their beds on the morning. At Step 7 they'd play at 2pm anyway!? Maybe Boxing Day off is written into all those contracts...

Processing centres deliberately closed by the Government to create this narrative. Hotels used so they could give cushy contracts to their wealthy mates. Our problems are not the fault of migrants or people fleeing a better life. It's the greed of the super rich.

US desperately celebrating winning holes like theyโve won the cup itself. Someone tell Bryson they are still 1 down with 7 to play.

@LBC My 82 year old mother in law moved here to marry 60 years ago. She raised two kids, worked and paid taxes all her life, for the last 10 years was her husbandโs carer (he passed away this year). She never applied for citizenship cos she didnโt need to. Farage wants to deport her.

On this 9/11, we remember Osama Bin Laden, who was a human being and a father who didn't deserve to get shot for having different opinions. Murder is wrong.

Seeing working-class mates who I know do work for cash to avoid taxes mocking Angela Rayner and praising Farage, and latterly Boris Johnson for being men of the people. Weโre fucked arenโt we?

It takes some balls to predict this division. It takes balls like ten pin bowling balls to leave this prediction up. @GornalAyWe @Knowle_FC

Those calling out our CHs should bear in mind that they usually have a GK behind them who acts as an extra CH when we have possession, and a CM in front of them (Tomoki) who effectively gives them an outlet to play through the lines. Those two are crucial to the way we play #bcfc
Not a single player on that pitch can be knocking CD door when theyโre not playing in the coming weeks. Not one player had a decent game. Neumann a very lucky man heโs got Klarer next to him too by the way #BCFC

Hopefully everyone can moan about him now instead of Stansfield. It's getting a bit dull tbh, cos we thought we'd left it behind in L1. #bcfc

Tremendo el cariรฑo que les tengo yo tambiรฉn a ellos. Son una ciudad y un club INCREIBLES ๐คฉ๐คฉ
Por cierto, tremendo el cariรฑo que le tienen a @mikelsanjo6 por la zona blue de Birmingham. Y eso que jugรณ solo una temporada y sin gente en las gradas de St Andrewโs por la pandemia.
