This picture came up in my Facebook memories. I had a brief secondment with the BBC when they were moving from Television Centre up to Salford. We had a bit of fun with the old sets (yep, me with short dark hair. Not my best look):

TBH, it’s because it came up in my Facebook memories and my first reaction was, “Oh! What a twat!”

I fucking despise Carragher with a passion.
Having a rant in the Chelsea-Spurs match about the number of PL players who go down like they’ve been shot, as if he’s only just fucking noticed.
And which player does he name-check? Macallister. No-one else. Absolute fucking shithouse.

Macallister falls down like he’s drunk to be honest.

He’s played like he’s drunk some of the games this year too.

Had he been drunk, he probably would’ve played better.

Lee Dixon should be on antidepressants. He is so fucking negative he ruins any England match I’m watching.
Carragher is now just a shit stirrer. And that shit is bullshit.

There a whole lot of stupid on the internet. A whole lot.
But then there’s this. Fantastic.
Roy Waddle looks like he could have been cast as a close relative of Martin Riggs in Lethal Weapon. Roy Ivanov..just looks like Roy Keane.

Roy actually looks almost exactly lik Roy Ronaldo now. new hairut and looks like he’s lost a bit of weight. With all the ex pros recently announcing cancer diagnosis I hope that’s not the case with Roy as well

he thinks he’s clever and he thinks we didn’t take notice that he picked out Macca of all the players he could’ve. Like he said, absolute shithouse

Sam Matterface last night following Salah’s goal said that the Egypt fans will be cheering all the way from Cairo to Giza.
A distance of just over 4 miles. Absolute dope.

I think this is a pretty good take from Rory Smith (smart guy, people should listen to what he says) about how increasingly punditry is focusing less on the moment and more on trying to create moments that go viral.

I really hate the CBS coverage here in the US as what insight they bring is shouted over by the buffoon double act of Carra and big Meech. Yet they are incredibly well regarded and I have to think it’s because as awful as it is to watch it produces viral moments and that is now the point. Unfortunately

Oh yeah a lot of it is boring punditry and then viral clips, I even think the ITV decision to put Emma Hayes with a chalkboard was an attempt at that.

Micah Richards was taking absolute pelters on social media throughout the England coverage last night.
Just search his name on here. People were saying he was on drugs, asking why he seemed so angry, why he was so twitchy, why he was speaking the way he was and calling him all sorts.
It’s a perfect example of why we should never assume we know what’s going on in someone’s life before judging or mocking them.
Hours before the game, Micah’s father passed away. Yet he still turned up and did his job. That takes incredible strength.
Just remember, think before you speak. You never know what someone is carrying behind the scenes.
