I’ve backed Hrgović at 6/1. He has excuses for his only defeat- against an opponent who brought a pace we’ve not seen yet from Moses and has franked the form since. Moses deserves to be favourite - but he is untested at this level and the odds are too wide.

Loads of chat about the sovereignty of islands in the South Atlantic lately- but barely a mention of the words Navitas or Sea Lion. It’s always about oil in the end

After sleeping on it- my attitude to Tuchel has softened. I think he should just be sacked and exiled to Rockall

Kunal has been a regular home and away for years. Also puts loads of effort into the Block 109 group- sorting crowdsurfer banners and trying to improve the Wembley atmosphere. A top England fan-

Man with a political project based on stirring up division and racial hatred calls for a timeout in the hope he can cash in on the achievements of a team that represents everything he claims to be against.
Many need to stop constantly politicising the team. Not everything all the time has to always be about politics. We’re in the World Cup semi-final. Maybe we could just enjoy it without being at each other’s throats for a change.

Rupert Lowe on Rogan: the fact checker must’ve been off. 2 hours of nonsense and contradiction with Joe saying “wow”.
In 1978 and 2002- the host nation cheated properly: behind closed doors. Here- Trump has openly told us he’s destroyed the integrity of the tournament and his mate Johnny is playing catch up
FIFA President Gianni Infantino:
“I have seen the public comments regarding the decision of the independent FIFA Disciplinary Committee related to the suspension of Folarin Balogun, and I would like to reiterate a fundamental principle of FIFA’s governance.
“FIFA’s judicial bodies are independent. They operate autonomously, apply the FIFA Disciplinary Code, and decide cases based on the applicable regulations and the specific facts before them. Their independence is essential to the credibility and integrity of football, and this must always be respected.
“Yes, I regularly discuss matters related to the FIFA World Cup with the President of the United States, and on this matter, I did receive a call from President Donald Trump, just as I receive calls from heads of state, government officials, football stakeholders and business executives from around the world on many different issues. During our conversation, I explained that there was an ongoing legal process involving FIFA’s independent judicial bodies and that the case would be decided in due course by the competent bodies. That is how FIFA’s system works, and it is a principle that I will always uphold.
“I read the decisions of the FIFA Disciplinary Committee when they are issued. Sometimes I am surprised by them. Sometimes I agree with them, and sometimes I disagree.
“What I always do, however, is respect those decisions and the autonomy of the bodies that make them. Whether we personally like a decision or not is irrelevant. Respect for independent institutions and the rule of law is what protects the integrity of our competitions and the credibility of FIFA at all times.”

I get dropping Trent because he can’t defend. I don’t really understand replacing him with someone who can’t do the killer through balls and also can’t defend.

In a UK stadium- this is epic.
In Saudi- it’s OK.
In the US- a complete waste of time. The Americans never give big fights the production they deserve. Also- every casual UK fight fan would watch at 10pm. At 3am -just the hardcore minus those who boycott it.
Till now I have not decided yet where the fight will take place and will work with me some ppl are making up a stories about it .. if you want to know the facts take it from me or the ring. If you want to waste your time listen to others .. I think you have tried me all past years and you know that what ever I say I do 🤷🏻♂️🥊

Mick Bower retweeted
JFK once invited to dinner 49 Nobel laureates, Robert Frost, William Styron, Ernest Hemingway, James Baldwin, Katherine Anne Porter, John Dos Passos, James Farrell and Lionel and Diana Trilling, and others. His line on the occasion became famous: “I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House—with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone."
Some of you were alive when that happened.
Tyson Fury sanctioned and banned from entering the US since 2022 strolls into #ufcwhitehouse talking about doing deals with Dana.

Hard to describe how ridiculous #ufc250 is. Just sad. The decline of the West summed up in one gaudy mess
The 3rd fight on the #misfits bill is body shots only. I expect this kind of thing on a show in the back of a WMC in Donny- but how can they get away with it on a televised arena show

How come the bottom’s dropped out of the supermarket red wine biz? Everything else costs a fortune- but the bottom shelf is cheaper every week.
