@andyc @footy the 90s boyband look.

@andyc I remember seeing an interview with Mark Clattenburg talking about some high profile games and simply admitting to stuff that people always suspected.

Stuff like realising you’ve got a call wrong and hoping for an opportunity to ‘even it out’.

Made me reconsider how many bad refs there must be out there.

Unless he’s a wild outlier… It’s possible, since he’s an absolute bellend, but unlikely.

@sabreW4K3 @luke that would be better as a swimming kit, because they have trunks.

@morph @footy

I can’t ignore any post that says ignore. It’s my sickness.

@andyc and obviously I watch far more Man Utd than I would otherwise choose to because if Mrs Basil misses a game she gets grouchy.

@andyc
Sorry, this was a snide reference to the final being, in all likelihood, influenced by the corrupt official.

I’ve only ever seen a tape of the final, but given how they played, I can only imagine the suspension was justified.

@andyc no second team in the way you mean here. (As in, not including local non-league)

But watch plenty of matches I’ve no investment in if I think it will be fun, and miss games that I have some investment in if I think it’ll be crap.

E.g. I wanted Inter to win the CL but didn’t watch as I figured it would be dull.

I didn’t care who won between Union Berlin and Freiburg last month but they are both fun teams and I managed to find a stream (While Mrs Basil was watching ManU v Wolves I think)

@andyc and the poor fella was robbed of a European Cup medal.

@Spudger swap you for mediocre, downright bizzare, and 19th.

@privsecfoss mostly to read low cadence personal blogs or programmer / tech blogs.

I would prefer a river of news interface to a traditional RSS reader but haven’t found one I like yet.

Yeah, I’m surprised how much I like the look of this. I’m into it.

@luke @footy certainly in a golden period of their history. Basically spanning the career of Modric 😅

@luke @andyc yeah had seen that it was pretty much a done deal. Great signing I think.

@andyc we were utter piss all season long. I have hate in my heart for that chaos/effort narrow red-bull-ball bullshit.

It was a complete shit show from start to finish. A master plan of disaster.

@andyc I would never forget James Milner! (Really hope he breaks the PL appearance record)

My current (unexciting) keyboard is the Logitech Ergo. Nice shape, very lame keys.

@andyc @Spudger certainly gonna be interesting to see what happens with Poch. The profile of Chelsea squad can be kindly described as elite, but strange.

@Luke @andyc

I’m sure they’ll find the right bank accounts to make some deposits.

@cfenollosa
What A Beauty 😍

Don’t think my stupid wrists could cope with a non-ergo keyboard, but if they could, one of these would likely be on my desk.

Have to assume Chelsea and Spurs will continue to be Chelsea and Spurs…

Klopp must be getting tired.

Postecoglou was on my wishlist for Leeds before they completely imploded, ah well.
