Colin is a #Brexiteer. He wanted to be my friend. I accepted but now he is very angry.

Don't be like Colin

Well spotted @CatLaw75!

The @BBC in 2020, & again in 2021, confirmed the personal @Twitter accounts of freelancers (eg Lineker, Packham, & Andrew Neil) are "unrelated to" the BBC, & "the BBC is not responsible for its content".

#MOTD #IStandWithGaryLineker #GaryGate
Davie's new (October 2020) social media guidelines stated @BBC staff should, on their own personal social media accounts, 'avoid expressing personal views on current issues of political controversy', which as a right-winger he described using the pejorative 'virtue signalling'.
However, the response to a complaint about Chris Packham, which came in September 2021 - almost a year after Tim Davie had set out his new social media guidelines for '@BBC staff' in October 2020 - stated Chris's "personal social media account has no connection to the @BBC." 🤔

While all this focus is on @GaryLineker, he gets criticised a lot for tweeting about this because he understands that most people don’t understand the magnitude of what we are facing in our kids lifetimes and maybe our own. Worth watching. A thread #MOTD #MOTDboycott #football

What a day for the #BBC yesterday

Lost all their #MOTD presenters after @GaryLineker wouldn’t apologise for criticising the government (read that again!😱)

And while that was obviously the big story, their bad day didn’t end there….

1/7
They announced they’d wouldn’t be airing the final episode of the latest #Attenborough series on TV for fear of a “Right Wing backlash”

WTF?

It will go out on iPlayer where the poor snowflakes won’t see it….

2/7
Then we had the statement about why #FionaBruce felt the need to clarify it was a “one off” when #stanleyjohnson put his wife in hospital😱

Yes, she was quoting one of their friends and not expressing her own opinion, but of all the things to ensure they clarified..?

“Ian Wright and Alan Shearer have pulled out of Match of the Day this weekend in “solidarity” with Gary Lineker after the presenter was told to “step back” from his position”.
Source close to Gary Lineker says he has not agreed to step back from MOTD - claiming the BBC has taken him off air.

It’s understood Lineker is unwilling to apologise for his tweets and admit he should not have posted them.
Head and shoulders above Starmer's Labour in their opposition to the vile Tories. Better than the apologetic Labour left in making a stand and not retreating.

اشفاق احمد صاحب مرحوم ومغفور فرماتےھیں ہیں جس پہ کرم ہے،
اُس سے کبھی پنگا نہ لینا۔ وہ تو کرم پہ چل رہا ہے۔
تم چلتی مشین میں ہاتھ دو گے، اُڑ جاؤ گے۔
کرم کا فارمولا تو کوئی نہیں ۔اُس کرم کی وجہ ڈھونڈو۔
جہاں تک میرا مشاہدہ ہے، جب بھی کوئی ایسا شخص دیکھا جس پر ربّ کا کرم تھا، اُسے عاجز پایا۔
پوری عقل کے باوجود بس سیدھا سا بندہ۔
بہت تیزی نہیں دکھائے گا۔
اُلجھائے گا نہیں۔
رستہ دے دے گا۔
بہت زیادہ غصّہ نہیں کرے گا۔
سادہ بات کرے گا۔
میں نے ہر کرم ہوئے شخص کو مخلص دیکھا ـــ اخلاص والا۔۔۔ غلطی کو مان جاتا ہے۔ معذرت کر لیتا ہے۔ سرنڈر کردیتا ہے۔
جس پر کرم ہوا ہے ناں، میں نے اُسے دوسروں کے لئے فائدہ مند دیکھا۔

It’s early in the season & your team are having an awful start.

No decent signings over the summer, injuries stacking up & confusion on & off the pitch.

You have a new manager who keeps saying everything will be just fine. And you want to believe him.👇
👆Things are going from bad to worse

Painful to watch

Leaking goals at the back

No creativity up front

Baffling team selection

Incomprehensible tactics & formation

Fans getting restless

Hopefully we’ll sign some top players in the transfer window.👇
👆The transfer window comes & goes with no signings

Then reports from the dressing room reveal that the players don’t EVEN have the proper kit

Frustration is building with the manager, but he injures himself on the training ground & ends up in hospital.👇

How I went from 1 MILLION to 23k in 7 weeks in #FPL

If your interested read on, if not no worries.
#GW1 “A strategy in place”

Kept an eye on preseason games & formulated what I thought was a solid strategy based on players form from last season (BIG mistake)

Decent start with 68 pts
#GW2 to #GW8 “Abandoned Strategy”

The World Cup with late returns, lack of fitness, PL team selection chaos played havoc on my #FPL team.

Time for a re-think & major surgery.
