  • I was at OT today. We were shite in the first half. Better in the second. Definitely the better side overall. Chelsea dangerously close to becoming an Arsenal. Big win.

  • Boyle won’t bring patriotism. He’s about as left as they come.
  • Bizarre. Especially given the fact he’s got Carte Blanche to act like a lunatic.
  • Can they walk out of a massive vagina rather than a Lift (Elevator)?

  • I’ve not seen it yet, but hoping to soon. A mate of mine made a good point the other day in saying that the ‘We need a black Bond’ debate feels redundant and almost backward thinking after this film’s success. It ultimately proves that with the righ…
