Turns out the drone was more entertaining than Arsenal.

Arsenal have been rubbish thusfar.

I keep hearing today that Manchester United are the biggest club in the world. I would beg to differ. Seems to me that there are a lot of people living in the past, on the fumes of previous glories. You can't rebuild anything if you don't recognise where you are. No delusion, just realism.

No notes.

The digital euro will bring the benefits of cash into the digital age: a secure form of public money that protects privacy and is accepted across the euro area, says ECB Executive Board member Piero Cipollone to Milano Finanza. Read the interview link.europa.eu/PFJjgx

This is the position from a game played between Sumiya Shinguun IM and Kazybek Nogerbek GM at the 2026 Atyrau Open. At this point, Shinguun found an extraordinary "invisible" move which gives White a winning advantage. The Times' David Howells picked it as his "move of the year". Which is it?

Stress tests cannot predict the next crisis, but they can reveal weaknesses and improve our capacity to prepare, says Supervisory Board member Patrick Montagner. As risks evolve, system-wide stress testing must become broader and more agile link.europa.eu/FTgtbM

This PSG v Barcelona match is a little like a basketball game.

I've only turned on this game and Michael Oliver has annoyed me three times in 10 minutes.

This seems like the perfect sponsor for Manchester City.

@lulu-mri.bsky.social - Strictly - Johannes actually isn't bad. Josh is the weakest of the three presenters in my view; seems like a fish out of water that is trying too hard.

An announcement from the Premier League: "The result of today's match involving Liverpool and Manchester City has been declared null and void by the independent panel. Cheating cannot prosper." A statement by ProRef: "We picked the wrong referee again. Sorry"

I would like to hear a lot more booing and invective from the Liverpool fans in this game. Score after 11 minutes: Liverpool 0 Cheats. 0

I must be missing something; why are the fans of the cheats carrying inflatable bananas at Anfield?

If I were Hamilton, I would quit Ferrari at the end of the season. Utterly useless race team. Vasseur cannot change the culture.

Charles Leclerc is being completely selfish here. He doesn't understand team strategy and Ferrari are far, far too slow to issue a team order. Ridiculous really.

Effectiveness and simplification go hand in hand, says Supervisory Board Vice-Chair Frank Elderson. By focusing on material risks and ensuring the most relevant weaknesses are addressed without delay, supervisors can make the dialogue with banks simpler and more effective link.europa.eu/DhbQ3g

So, here it begins - the UAE fight back - Etihad Airways publish a statement I dictating that they are exploring their legal options regarding the EPL. Despite not being mentioned at all, the airline decides that they have somehow been damaged as a result of the published redacted City report.

Just saw an ad for Jamie Oliver's Channel 4 programme "20 minute meals" In a segment, Jamie proudly proclaims a dish he has made as "so good!" It got me thinking; I've never heard any TV chief say anything negative about what they have cooked on TV. Can't see Jamie saying "that's a load of ****!"

I've just seen Bernardo Silva's "tackle" on Martin Odegaard - thank you for the link, @arseblog.com. There is no question here; Silva should have been dismissed for violent conduct.

Cracking Album this. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍

So, I've just turned on RTÉ 2 TV. Ireland are currently beating Israel 3-0 (or 0-3 as it is technically an away game). I thought RTÉ were not planning to show the game with commentary, but they seem to have picked up a UK feed.

Guys, anyone in Ireland should watch Virgin Media 2 now as there is a great conversation going in re: the Israel v Ireland games.

Can I just make it clear that Sky Sports News are not reporting the Manchester City story properly. Manchester City have been found guilty of breaches. It is not "reports that the club has breached". Stop sanitising that club.

So, it is 50 years since U2 formed, so they are doing a relatively impromptu gig on Grafton Street.....getting set up now.

What do you think of this @refbooks.bsky.social and @kenstephenson.bsky.social ? No card at all was the ref assessment on the night. I'm not sure I agree with that.
