    I have an offer of Club Wembley if we make the final, which I'll probably take up.

    Not in Club Wembley, youth. Them's the posh leather ones.

    I think in this case they'll be made from the skins of all the dead polar bears who will have died for the cause.

    The U21s are playing Athletic Bilbao in the Premier League International Cup. I think it's the semi-final and I assumed it was 2 legs, but it has gone to extra time and Forest have just taken the lead.

    2-0. 90 seconds left.
    Penalty scored by Manni Norkett, which sounds like Ali G describing The Spice Girls...

    The first couple of paragraphs on Athletics article on MGW

    "Morgan Gibbs-White is pointing. He points a lot.

    He points to where he wants the ball. He points to where he thinks his team-mates should play the ball. He points to where he thinks his team-mates should run. He points to where he thinks his team-mates should be."

    Tricky been coaching?

    I'm not sure you could call Tricky a coach. Even if you took all his teeth out and put 52 seats in his gob.

    Yeah. But shouting and pointing?

    Nailed it.

    Love that the stats crowd can't get their head around one of their favourite measurement stats not actually providing insight into a game of football.

    Possession is only going to be insightful towards outcome if all other things are equal*. That is to say, if you have the majority of possession, but never try to score, you will not win a single game. Even if your possession is 100%. The stat these people really need is percentage per possession percent of actually trying to go something.

    Or they could use their eyes.

    * If one side takes risks with the ball, and tries to score**, and another side doesn't***, the outcomes will likely be quite different for the same possession, and same quality level.

    ** ie traditional English football.

    *** ie this turgid Spanish dancing crap that the commercial corruption of football, in favour of protecting a small number of brands, has lumbered us with.
