Andy Preston accepts mayoral defeat with good grace

It is possible for officials to make an incorrect decision without being in any way negligent, e.g. if they're unsighted. They can also make poor decisions, much the same as players. Incidents of outright venality in the English game appear to be rare, but there is academic research to support...

As any Sunderland fan will tell you, it's not a derby.

Indeed. A firm shifting to an all-EV fleet would probably lose workers.

The refs' own associations don't support them. I was sickened to see Howard 'look at me' Webb chucking his members under the bus in pursuit of personal publicity recently. I'd absolutely love it (Keegan style) to see refs sending players off right, left, and centre, abandoning games etc until...

I've just remembered - wasabi peanuts

Is the gas used for energy or as a feedstock?

Now you've done it! Cue yet another endless EV vs ICE thread.

Varying degrees of smaller. I suppose the point I'm making is that our use of comparative adjectives like 'smaller' is, by definition, relative and context-dependent. When Gibbbo was quoted the comparator for the FA was the entire English game - we were 'small', unimportant, and disposable...

Gibbo in 1986 the Football League showed a lack of support and Gibson claimed they wanted to “crucify a football club, and this small club in the north-east was the one they picked on.”

Another vote for Antstop. Instant result for me

He's growing a nose like Sir Alex Ferguson. Sounded ***ed as well.

I think the more recent Just Stop Oil protests are moving in the right direction. Closing roads, bridges, and stations caused significant disruption to the lives of ordinary people for little gain for their cause. Shifting to disrupting televised sporting events gains high-profile publicity at a...

Go and see Say Sue Me - they're from Busan and brilliant live

Or his silence was bought.
