I made a cameo on @VFTLpodcast to chat about Chelsea, Coventry and low xG chances, with @kvlmason and @Dan_KP.

@SebSB @VFTLpodcast @kvlmason @Dan_KP Optimism very well placed Seb

@Paul_Newman66 @VFTLpodcast @kvlmason @Dan_KP What a wonderful night.

Fake football quotes are an increasing menace on social media.

Why do they work and where do they come from?

Credit to @SebSB about the only positive spurs fan before going to Stamford Bridge. Talked up the win on the VFTL podcast

@djjnr2 🙌

Into him, @Mrjamieohara1.

@SebSB hang your speech from the podcast in the Louvre.

@MattWTate Broken clocks my friend.

Nobody should indulge Cole Palmer’s protests there. He got a let off with that first incident, wasted the reprieve and then gave the referee no choice but to send him off.

Mathys Tel. Magnificent.

Pipe night in the away block. 🚬🚬🚬

That’s ridiculously dangerous from Said El Mala. Shoves two Schalke players into each other, both subsequently replaced with bleeding head injuries.

@SebSB Similar to brian brobbey last season on Romero and Vicario

@Beezus37644877 Worse IMO.

@SebSB Yep.

@jonoblain Also: knows exactly what he’s doing.

@SebSB It's the same as nudging a player into the advertising boards. Not in the handbook though...

@jonoblain Horrible and snide.

Not even a yellow card. Absolutely hopeless refereeing.

This is how your seriously hurt someone. It’s a red card.

Gianni Infantino has been on a world tour ever since the FFE scandal broke, staging photo ops with executives from dozens of different countries and federations - see his IG for how busy he’s been.

A fair question: how much have all the private jets and hotels cost? And why is blic?

@SebSB Very valid question! And is it used for the purpose of campaigning?

@Ramon_Vega71 Whatever it is, I imagine he’s not travelling EasyJet or staying in an Ibis.

A week since release and already
OIAL: Hearts has hit nearly a quarter of a million views & incredible response.

In an age where so much has been reduced to short formats, nice to see there’s still there’s support for the longer form of storytelling.

@ElMengem It’s brilliant work, Eli

@SebSB FIFA isn’t a governmental organization. It’s not public because they don’t have to make it public

@ailliwre It doesn’t have to, but it absolutely should. Infantino styles himself as a redistributor and it’s never been more important to understand where all this money is actually going.

Fake quotations on social media are a big problem in football.

But why are people falling for them and where do they come from?
