Beyond gutted at this most awful of Monday morning news... Wimbledon legend Mikey T was a fundamental part of our football club. A totally irreplaceable one-of-a-kind, I'd known him since all those away trips around the country back in the 1990s... RIP sir 💙💛
Devastated the voice, the man, the legend Mikey T sadly passed away yesterday, many are called Mr Wimbledon, but none more than Mikey earned the right. Over 2000 consecutive Wimbledon games, I'll leave you with my favourite commentary of his sharing the emotion of all of us #AFCW

So, if I understand this correctly: - Fire and rescue services all over the UK have been tackling a horrendous number of wildfires, becoming more and more stretched with each passing day. - Those in charge came together and asked Andy Burnham to use the emergency alert system to ask people to stop doing stupid shit that leads to wildfires, because it could easily get to the stage where there are no longer the resources to tackle every new fire, leading to an even more serious risk to life. - A lot of people are furious about the above. Jeez this fucking country.

‼️ Listen to BBC Today: Q: “What is your appeal going to be to the people of Clacton?” Count Binface: “Well… I’m not Nigel Farage.” 😂 Farage called this by-election to dominate the headlines. Instead, he’s handed @CountBinface a national platform.

One thing I absolutely love about British politics… …the first thing Andy Burnham has to do after winning is shake hands with a fox and a bin

24 years ago today, an advance party of Dons fans arrive outside @FA offices at Soho Square, followed by hundreds more for what would become the last rites of Wimbledon FC, before we were betrayed by Raj Parker of @matrixchambers and @StrideSteve #NeverForgiveNeverForget

Since Marie-Louise Eta became Union Berlin's interim head coach: -Became the first-ever female coach to win a match in Europe's Top 5 Leagues -Got her second win today in dominant fashion in her final match -Ensured Union Berlin's Bundesliga survival What a job she's done 👏

Keir Starmer has been a disappointment, but anyone calling him 'Britain's Worst Ever Prime Minister' in a world where Liz Truss & Boris Johnson exist must have been kicked in the head by a horse

The Beeb, Sky & the Tabloids wanted Cameron, they wanted #Brexit, they wanted May, they wanted Johnson, they ignored Partygate, they even wanted Truss, they wanted Sunak and now they're behind Mirage/Farage...maybe, maybe it's time the UK ignored them & thought for themselves.

Please be careful in London. I have spent 25 years there, but I have never heard a story as frightening as this one from today in which nothing at all happened.
Nick Ferrari: Do you feel safe in London? Nadhim Zahawi(Reform): No... I walked from my home.. & an individual walked past me... & I walked into the middle of the road NF: What was he doing? NZ: He looked as if he hadn't slept for a week... he looked like he might be violent

When people in the UK are asked why they are now supporting Reform, a common response is because 'things can't get any worse.' They certainly can & almost certainly would if Reform wins power.

Accordion to a recent survey, 6 out of 10 people don't notice when a word in a sentence is replaced by a musical instrument.
