each year i’m more and more convinced that English football and the Premier League peaked when Boaz Myhill deliberately kicked the ball out for a corner instead of a throw in cos of Rory Delap
Brazil and McCoist at Cheltenham is fantastic. Little vox pop with some woman asked about Brazil and she says 'I don't know who Alan Brazil is.'
Cuts to him and his out to the adverts is:
'I hope you never backed a winner you old cow.'
A master of his craft.
No qualifier in the HISTORY of tennis ever made a grand slam final. From thousands of them. And then she not only does that. But wins it. Without dropping a set. Without being taken to a tiebreak. She got taken to 5-5 once all tournament and it was in the second qualifying round

Ben Stokes in T20 chase: take the game deep, dot up for no reason, drag the chase out
Ben Stokes in test chase: FUCKING SLOGGGGGG we’ve gotta get it done tonight
Funny how it was assumed Luton would be the embarrassment of the league yet the other two have outdone them by a staggering amount. These lot are on track to concede 100+ but Megamind’s Burnley spent over £100m to be on the same points 😭
⚽️✨ Football journalist Henry Winter: "When the Ballon d'Or nominations come out, I almost retire and spend 48 hours looking at the clips, going through stats and looking at my notes of games."

Konaté was sent off for this. Yeah we may have deserved fuck all out the game but this decision rattled me.
It's not even a foul for me but there you go.
Illegal pirate websites are run by criminals who often try to steal personal data. Watch the Premier League properly on Now TV. Does identity theft worry you?

Jose Mourinho praises Mikel Arteta in his post-match interview
Don’t think it will be a great call, series is level there’s a 10 day gap. Makes more sense to play him in the next and give him a gap before the fourth if they want the option of resting him with that test having lesser turn around. Just too much on stake to rest him for third
🗣 Borja Mayoral, talking about the 2018 UCL semifinal:
"We were losing 0-1 at HT, Kimmich's goal. We were playing very bad. Zidane entered the dressing room... I had never lived something like this.

On this fifth and final day of the fifth Ashes test, it’s time to take a Sensodyne Sensitivity Free Moment. Because life is too short for sensitive teeth.
before Wimbledon she was out of the top 300 and wasn’t even given a wildcard originally because they thought she was ranked too low. Got it after two wins in ITF Nottingham. And ended up like this. Jesus Christ how is it real
