Les Misérables
Much has been made about the cosplaying of women footballers – you know, the whole on-pitch slo-mo performative dance, together with the vacuous press conferences, minging magazine articles, asshole adverts, unmeritorious medals, and the tosspot Tik Tok turdbait. The overreach and grim gaslighting are embarrassing. Perhaps a thumping by Spain in the Euro final might…

A Flair Cop
England ‘footballer’ Jess Carter has whistled up the cops to probe the online hate directed at her. Yes, you read that right. A shedload of labour-intensive man hours will now be ploughed into an investigation about a handful of hurty words unidigitally prodded into a keyboard by some weary gobshite. Surely, it takes a bit…

Sure Thing, Muskie!
The issue with any debate about grooming – or to be precise – rape gangs is that everyone focuses on a profile of the perpetrators. Particularly when it suits their agenda. Talk about looking down the wrong end of the telescope. A fact about crime, and this applies as equally to perving as it does…

Tap-In
Another day, another Team England loss, and two hours of my life was gone forever. Sometimes I think I’ll never learn. Cue the rearguard. The shambolic shitshow shoo-in was predictably re-imagined by the client press as an inevitable defeat in the wake of the new Brazilian wonderkid. The ‘new Romario’, no less. Nothing Gareth could…

Not Fit to Iron the Shirt
Former footballer and manager Joey Barton has ruffled a few feather boas in recent weeks by stating some of the least controversial comments imaginable. He has said that the current locust swarm of female pundits are crap. That’s not even an opinion. It’s a fact. Claiming that their presence on screen in the context of…

Twearps
Hold my Prosecco while I have a whinge. For the second year in a row, the public has voted a woman footballer the ‘Sports Personality of the Year’. Their game, their rules. Good luck to all the women making money from football. I say the same about proper players making zillions from Premier League merchandising.…

Demon Strays
Another day, another protest. Is this a functioning country or a students’ union? Sometimes, it’s hard to tell. Now, I don’t have any allegience in respect of this Israel-Hamas dust-up. It’s all tragic, but I don’t really give a toss. And let’s be honest, who really does? But what is this pro-Palestinian protest going to…

Snatch of the Day
Good evening. Match of the Day will still be showing tomorrow but some soli-dar-idee will mean action only and no expert punditry. Business as usual then. I’m personally torn on this issue. I passionately support freedom of speech, but witnessing the Leftwaffe’s kamikazes ploughing into empty fields without shots being fired makes my ring tingle.…

Lez We Forget
Another day, another bandwagon. And so the Women’s Euros came to pass. If people want to celebrate a gang of lesbians playing in slow-mo to the standard of a very average regional non-league team, that’s fine. But let’s not confuse it with sporting excellence. Just for context, in 2017 the US team played a match…

Gueye Bashing
Spare a thought today for Idrissa Gueye, who is about to have his career curtailed by the thought Nazis for pulling back from the abyss of virtue-signalling hell and refusing to take one for the team. It’s been the most controversial LGBT issue in sport since the Green Bay Packers relocated from the town of…
