    Yeah. I like that. Farage may not win on Thursday - Reform UK look like they will finish second behind Starmer's Labour - but I tip Farage to become PM in 2029. Despite that, I'm sure Farage will want to work with Le Pen on many things, not least the illegal Channel crossings. Farage is a great...

    I like how Kane does almost nothing in an entire match - like in this one - and you don't even notice him for 80 minutes in total until at some point he pops up out of nowhere and scores and it usually wins matches. He's England's all time leading scorer since they were founded in 1873 and the...

I started saying to myself: "Slovakia are in Dreamland right now. 30 seconds away...
