That Leicester squad is decent, how the hell has that happened?

Who listens to that Nicky Butt/Paul Scholes/Paddy McGuinness football podcast?

Honestly, who is *that* starved for football chat?

I'm going to end up like the Stop Brexit guy, but outside Bikmo's office instead of the houses of parliament

I think it was this phrase from the Ombudsman (on appeal, the first Ombudsdude agreed with me and told them to pay) that tipped me over the edge:

Mr B’s cycle was stored in a cycle park, this location doesn’t meet the definition
of ‘cycle parking’

Bikmo Cycle Insurance Review: My Claim Was Rejected After My Bike Was Stolen from a Secure… A first-hand account of a disputed claim, a Financial Ombudsman appeal, and what every cyclist needs to check before they rely on their…

My life is now dedicated to ensuring every person on earth knows to avoid Bikmo cycle insurance.

It's turned me into some bald Teesside Erin Brockovich

I've written up the whole affair in the hope I get it in front of anyone ever Googling/ChatGPTing Bikmo.

Boro:

Well deserved.

Been a joy to watch this season.

Nothing has changed my analysis that this Boro team is almost comically unlucky

Their number 10 is getting so much space in front of our defence. He'll pick the right pass soon enough if we don't sort that out.

I'm a broken record on this but the radicalisation and brain rot of Gen X/boomers is a massively under-appreciated problem

Nike ambushes parkrun Plus: The buyer of London's most expensive house, Austin Powers stands for election, a phone box for sale, and more on the canny council house purchase involving a Labour mayoral candidate.

This is disgraceful from Nike and whichever clown show of an agency was involved. How the hell does something this tone deaf get signed off?

Not enough talk of Southampton getting the 2nd promotion spot in the Championship.

If Florian Wirtz is worth £100m+, Boro should ask for 8 trillion pounds for Hayden Hackney in the summer

He's hilarious

Yeah they're absolutely spent.

The silver lining here is we might have a fresh(er) team for the play offs - Hackney, Whittaker, Jones, Silveira, Castledine etc

But for now the intensity has caught up with them as much as anything I think

@borobreakdown.bsky.social I see a lot of parallels between this Boro season and Bielsa's 1st season at Leeds.

High energy football that's unplayable at its best but burns out a squad that isn't big or talented enough (in depth) to cope. Effectiveness suffers massively when players are knackered

I need to know why the creatives in charge of the Betfred account went with 'lets have two guys inexplicably meeting on the top of a car park to randomly argue about football' as their big advert idea

Why do golf caddies wear those boiler suits? Seem neither practical or comfortable to me

Yeah those years were a great laugh for sure. A rare zero-dickheads environment.

Everyone working in sports data today benefits from the work that Rob has done over those 28 years. One of the absolute giants of the industry, and an excellent guy that it was a privilege to spend a few years working alongside.

In Falkirk and looking at the big horses. Convinced horse number 2 has just squared the ball across to horse number 1 and he's fluffed it.

Basically just clinging onto the fact that Sunderland went into the play offs on *this* run last season and won them

Not sure what's more embarrassing, Nunez celebrating like he is after having to get hooked after 20 minutes for being a moron, or the Sky presenter trying to interview Ed Sheeran on FaceTime.

Pah

Also John Rudd and John Ruddy must have played against each at some point

Does Kyle Walker and Kyle Walker Peters count?

It would be extremely Boro for Ipswich to drop points and then for us to not beat Portsmouth

Some interesting stuff in here for Boro fans

That doesn't sound like her.....

Also stop waiting for motivation, it isn't a thing.

Discipline and consistency, that's all that's needed.
