Yes the chairman should’ve befriended other clubs’ owners (???) and sold up two years earlier to any old bunch of Bury style fraudsters rather than holding out for the seemingly excellent buyers he found.
What a terrible take
Can we just stop this “We love Roly” about turn online? He alienated other clubs management, he acted like a dictator and his club secretary acting as minder. We ended up in L2 because he refused to go before the “magic” 30 years. So many online hypocrites this week, clowns tbh🙄

What jumps out most from this article is Biden saying both that he wouldn’t have run again if he’d had his cancer diagnosis then, and also that he wishes he’d been tested earlier. Did no in the inner circle of the frail 80yo leader of the free world think to check his prostate?
I have closely covered both Mitt Romney and Joe Biden. The revealing scene of Romney pulling Biden aside, telling him to pump his arms to look more energetic and fix his gait - and Biden appreciating and following it - illustrates something about both men. theatlantic.com/politics/202…

Did not realise until this interview that Mixu Paatelainen is involved at Spartans 😳
📽️ WATCH: Shrewsbury's new Chairman Scott Davidson speaks to @BBCShropshire @Footienick about his vision for the club on and off the field.
A very impressive first impression!

This is the stupidest suggestion you will ever read on Twitter
Said this about Russell Brand earlier this year, and feel even more strongly about it now about the David Walliams allegations: there should be a staggered age of consent.
Someone in their thirties has no business having sex with a teenager, even if they're 'legal'!

The picturesque market town of where?!
It’s hard to believe that a young Jude Bellingham had little interest in the beautiful game. He spent much of his early childhood in the picturesque market town of Stourbridge, just outside of Birmingham, more likely to be found playing British Bulldog with his friends. Or making daisy chains for his mum. “As soon as the football came out, I wasn’t interested,” Jude remembers. “I didn’t want to get kicked, I didn’t want to kick anyone – just leave me to my daisy chains.” But when his younger brother Jobe Bellingham – who now plays for Borussia Dortmund and England – picked up the ball, something in Jude clicked. The rest, as they say, is history: britishvogue.visitlink.me/Yd…
ALT Image one shows Jude Bellingham from the torso up, looking into the camera. He wears a pale yellow top under a pale blue shirt unbuttoned halfway, with a thin brown belt and dark trousers. A black coat is slung over his shoulders. With his right hand, he pulls down the necklines of the top and shirt, and with his left he leans against some wooden cabinets. Behind him are pale tiles with an orange floral motif.
ALT Image two shows white writing on an orange background that reads: “I think fans put players on a pedestal sometimes and I never really want to be seen like that. I’d rather be seen as someone who is a human being first” - Jude Bellingham.

When even Nick Bradley is making not-so-subtle digs, your game is fully up
Unfortunate for young Frank Kennedy at @DPWorldTour q school with his dq. I built his swing from 10.5 to just before him ‘not’ playing in the Walker Cup. All I’ll say, because I’ve been asked, is that ‘all behavior is learned’..those who know will know what I mean’

30 years of competent unspectacular ownership, hopefully his legacy is choosing a good successor amongst a sea of fraudsters
Shrewsbury Town is delighted to announce Biscayne ST LLC, a company controlled by Miami-based businessman Scott Davidson, has successfully completed its acquisition of the football club.
Biscayne ST LLC has acquired 87.4% of the club's shares, previously held by Roland Wycherley MBE, who has now stepped down as owner and chairman following 30 years at the helm.

Kids in small-town, normally-overlooked bits of England discovering a bit of regional identity and pride, learning independence of travel and supporting non-commercialised sport. Really isn’t too far removed from being an allround good thing tbh.
Great primer on an increasing issue in non-league football. Most fans can't stand them. It really took off post-Covid and has never abated since.

My hottest take is that where we are now with sex pest bullying from TV 20 years ago, is where we will be 20 years from now with the psychological aspects of Traitors and the like.

Everyone always says “trains don’t work like this any more”, no one ever asks “why don’t we make trains that work like this any more?”
Just another example of modern technology that doesn’t actually do the job as well as the stuff it replaced
Trains haven't worked like this for like 30 years and yet the folk myth of the elusive "extra carriage" persists
