    Ali Al-Hamadi

    Interesting article on the Athletic about Al-Hamadi who spent a little while in our academy before turning down the offer of a professional contract here in favour of dropping down the leagues to play more first-team football. Looks like it worked out for him. I've copied the article if anyone...

    WTF?

    Every time that we feel embarrassment at the useless people elected to represent us at Parliament or the Senedd, it's like an American wants to show us we've got nothing on that clown car of a country: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/world-us-canada-67421998 In the middle of a Senate hearing, a...

    Captain Tom's family

    Anyone else feeling much sympathy for the crap they're getting? After reading up on it, I can't say I am. Obviously no-one should receive abuse and death threats, but their actions seem to be pretty self-serving. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-67099214

    Aaron Lewis

    Did anyone see ex-Swans youth player Aaron Lewis' goal for Mansfield at the weekend? Not bad at all. https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/12958032/the-best-goal-youll-see-this-weekend-aaron-lewis-first-time-strike

    NSR - PL games

    Don't usually bother watching a lot of PL games these days, but enjoying Brentford vs Tottenham so far. Probably watching the Liverpool vs Chelsea game later with my boy. Brentford still the masters of the dark arts, winning an incredibly soft penalty, getting opponents booked and somehow...

    £259m!

    Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal have apparently made a £259m bid for Mbappe. Insane. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66291108

    Playoff Finals ranked

    A ranking of the 16 Championship playoff finals that have been played at the new Wembley: https://www.football365.com/news/ranking-championship-play-off-finals-wembley-overdue-classic Spoiler: We don't make top spot, but the game that does actually makes coming second a better result...

    Pratley

    On a slightly different note this evening, something made me look up Darren Pratley. I'm sure plenty knew already, but I wasn't aware that he's Leyton Orient's club captain at the age of 38. Played almost every game for them this season as they went up as League Two champions and has signed a...

    Ten players sent off!

    Makes our cup game with Scunthorpe some years back look tame in comparison... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63540624

    Oli Cooper

    Just like Joe Allen back at Ninian, there's something special about seeing a homegrown player score in the derby. Surely (barring injury) Page has to take Cooper to the World Cup now right? He cannot justify taking Colwil or that Fulham teenager ahead of him at this point.

    Heatwave Deaths

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-63171417 Someone needs to tell the ONS and UKHSA that they're being a bunch of snowflakes complaining about a bit of sunny weather, like Darran said at the time...

    Grimes

    Saw a stat on WalesOnline in the Swans player ratings from yesterday that Grimes has now played every minute in the last 60 league games! For one thing, that shows impressive stamina and resistance to injury. It also made me wonder if there was any player in our history where managers and fans...

    Obafemi

    Having a good day for the Irish by all accounts. A brilliant assist and then a 25-yard screamer for his first international goal. Limped off now, but hopefully nothing serious.

    The Ryder Cup

    It's coming up soon and I saw this article about Brooks Koepka on the Beeb: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/golf/58562548 Is that a good indication of why the US record is relatively poor in modern times? They almost always have the better players, but are all about individual success and so find...

    In more important news...

    Cardiff are bottom of the table and we're in the playoff places again: https://www.football365.com/news/ranking-the-2021-22-championship-home-kits-from-worst-to-best Although I think Cardiff were hard done by looking at the Fulham monstrosity.

    Those crazy Americans

    So it's illegal to make a toy gun that looks like the real thing (for obvious and sensible reasons), but it's not illegal to make a real gun that looks like a toy? I presume that's because nobody thought anyone would be stupid enough to do such a thing...

    Priti Patel

    Lisa brought up the lovely Priti Patel in the Sarah Everard thread, but I thought it better to start a new thread than potentially derail that one. I see the government are using a pandemic to try and pass laws that will massively affect people's right to protest and give the police more...

    Attention outrage brigade

    If you want something else to grumble about, how about this: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cornwall-56188851 My favourite part is: No shit Sherlock. Have a think for a couple of minutes and maybe you'll realise there's a few important differences between Wales and sodding Cornwall.

    Skewen disgrace

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-56189469 It's rare that I agree with Stephen Kinnock, but how can the Coal Authority be 'responsible for remediating mine shafts and making sure mine-water has a permanent solution', but not liable for flooding when those measures fail? That's like saying I'm...
