Here's some stunning punditry from Danny Murphy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CPgoMgWSDo

"VAR should be scrapped because players aren't celebrating goals" is a shockingly bad take even by his standards.

TRP Post of the Month October 2021

City have ended the contract with the PR firm who posted this, who are themselves doing an internal audit to figure out how it got approved. Some poor intern is so incredibly fired for this.

So yes, it was real, but apparently City were just as shocked to see it as the rest of us. I thought it was fake at first because of how bad it was, but also because the image used had Nike kits. Turns out "PHD Manchester" got everything all wrong in the most hilarious way.

The use of "influencers" and "genuine story" in the same sentence at the end wraps that whole thing up perfectly.

If you're not striving to improve, you'll end up going backwards.

quote:


What happened on Saturday was very predictable.

Concede first, moan, fume, Silva out. We've not won a game from behind under him and our away record is terrible.

Equalise straight away, oh actually this might be alright. First set piece goal of the season too (in the Prem).

Miss a few sitters, make some subs that are very loving questionable, 'why the fucks he brining DCL on???'. DCL scores, get in there! Maybe I was wrong about Silva, maybe we'll finally win a game from behind!

VAR. gently caress sake. Maybe Pickford will save it? Nah. Take a draw then. 6 minutes added time? Where the gently caress did that come from? Last minute own goal, Everton that.

And on the non football side, it isn't much better.

As promised I walked round to my cousin's house earlier this morning to ask her out. Now I don't want to use the words 'lead on' but they might apply here. I was under the impression we had a connection, we get on well, have a similar sense of humour, and we shagged a few weeks prior. In my mind, the next step would be a form of exclusivity. Turns out we aren't on the same wavelength. And I'll be honest it was pretty loving awkward lads.

TL;DR she told her sister about us (no one else in the family knows) and now it's loving spread around like Spanish influenza.

it’s not actually dead iirc but the PE firm who owns them canned the EiC because he wouldn’t exclusively publish sports stories, even though non-sports stuff was often better received.

Sadly, I don’t think any of this will make Billy’s writing and general assault on grammar any better.

The owner of Deadspin had the gall to require his sportswriters to write about sports and they refused.

gently caress those writers and gently caress Deadspin, they were trash at the best of times.
