I worked on the launch of Google dining in the UK & EU (which is very similar to this), it wasn't a quick piece of work, my big win was reducing dev time by about 80% to ensure we launched before our competitors. I can't believe that this wasn't in development before he was PM
I know people are worried about fuel prices. And I get it. You get to the pump, watch the numbers climb, and wonder why it's costing so much more than it used to.   The reality is that global events are pushing up costs, and families here at home are feeling the impact.   But I won't accept that there's nothing I can do to help.   That's why from today, you'll be able to see petrol and diesel prices on Google Maps, compare nearby stations and find the cheapest option before you fill up.   It's a small change, but if there's a practical way to help people keep more money in their pocket, I'll do it.

I like to challenge myself and regularly build stuff with AI, to keep my knowledge fresh in the industry. This weekend I built a little game looking at if it was possible to be as succesfull as City without breaching the rules, have a look theproductconsultant.co.uk/t…

The 115 verdict says City's books were inflated by £830m+ of owner money dressed as sponsorship. There is an argument that that was the only way of breaking in to the elite So, could they have got there legally? I've built a game to find out theproductconsultant.co.uk/t…

@KieranMaguire , you've said you've never seen anything as damning. So I tried the opposite question, how would the clean version work?

A little something I worked on with @playnimbusap Which players would benefit/who would suffer if Man City's titles were redistributed. I give you the medal ceremony playnimbus.app/the-medal-cer…

What happens if City loses all their medals? Which players benefit? We’ve built a handy website so you can find out. Bernardo Silva hands back 15 trophies while Troy Deeney gets an FA Cup. At least Bernardo's got plenty of shelf space for the inevitable shiny stuff at Real Madrid. Who else gets a medal? Steven Gerrard, for one. Search any Premier League player at playnimbus.app/the-medal-cer… #ManCity #FACup #FantasyFootball

So he was Barca Manager when they were paying off the refs and City Manager when they were cooking the books to do what they wanted... is his legacy tainted now?? realmadrid.com/en-US/news/cl…
"His work is NOT tainted" ❌🏆 🎙️ @GuillemBalague says a finding on Man City is not a finding on Pep #BBCFootball #ManCity

'We sent the money from our personal account, not our business account'
Man City will claim sponsorship cash was paid by government — not owners. This, sources say, will be the basis of their appeal, even though the evidence has already been rejected by the commission. A new panel will, of course, be appointed for appeal. thetimes.com/article/975bbd7…

It's really dangerous how 3 well known and popular footballers can talk down PSR/FFP without seeing past the benefits for the top 6. As restrictive as the rules may be, they work. 14 years pre FFP 27 clubs went in to administration (thats a 1/3 of the FL), 14 years post 'just' 7
Are the PSR rules fair for everyone or do they favor the red cartel to keep the status quo; anti-competitive rules that prevent any other ambitious small clubs from competing with the big boys...??

I support a team who has been in administration, had fans putting loose change in buckets to keep us going and then had a billionaire take us over, over spend and then get hit with a world record fine for it. I've seen both ends of the scale and still think we need regulation.

bbc.co.uk/sport/football/175… City pay us to lose this one as well?
🚨🗣 - Wayne Rooney jokes that Man City should get another charge for THAT game against QPR. 😭 Mike Dean (referee of the game): "I just said, 'What's going on here? Why are they [QPR] giving the ball back straight away [to Man City]?"

This is an absolutely disgraceful comment to be making and broadcast. The normalisation of antisemitism right here, when a european football analyst belittles the murder of 6 million jews in europe in the 40s on a sports channel.

But who would he play for when england play american? Hmmm?
Harry Kane has raised the possibility that he could combine becoming a specialist NFL kicker with finishing his football career in MLS playing the two sports simultaneously. More from @JackPittBrooke ⬇️ bit.ly/46ZCXgV

🚨 NEW: Andy Burnham is set to scrap the law that bans football fans from drinking in the stands "I don’t see how it can be fair that some supporters of one sport can be treated differently"

Who writes this rubbish? In the premier league era alone Fulham and Swansea have also done it!
Bournemouth will join Brighton tonight as the second current Premier League club to go from the fourth tier of English football to playing in Europe 🤩📈🇪🇺
