I didn't know about the muted mics at the last debate so when I saw all the highlights I was surprised how calm and respectful Trump was to Biden. I couldn't understand it, I thought maybe he was being kind and had some sympathy to Biden due to his ill state at the time.

But then I remembered who the F he is and now I know his mic was muted it all makes sense. I'm surprised he didn't just try shouting anyway over the muted mic.

But just watching those highlights in isolation without that knowledge it almost...... kinda almost made him seem human.

So definitely, unmute the mics so we see the real Trump and let him implode.

It may not be what you are after but I find best source for news is You Tube fan channels like United Stand or FUTV.

They may just regurgitate the news from those sports journalists tweets but it saves me having to use Twtter myself and they summarise everything quite well usually. Although some go overboard and are often clickbaity themselves it's easy enough to spot the actual breaking news Vs the click bait titles.

Will be a shame to see him go but this is the exact type of transfers we should be doing, selling on squad players while they are still worth a decent transfer fee rather than letting them stay on until they no longer have any value.

This is a no brainer. We have already got 4 good options for wide players for 2 positions.

In midfield we have 2 good players for 2 positions. We need reinforcement there.

Get Sancho Out and Ugarte In!

Is Mazraoui an instant starter against Fulham now that Shaw is injured again?

Sweet pull. I'm a big fan of these scenic art cards rather than straight up character portraits.

Always a good idea to do your pulls in the car too, get the best luck in there!

So some more movement with De Ligt and Mazraoui in the door. Now we wait to see if we can get that much needed additional midfielder in the door before transfer window closes.

So far a decent transfer window, although injuries have tainted it a bit again.

It's exciting, we have a better looking defence on paper now, just hope we get the right version of De Ligt. Surely Ten Hag can get that version of him. Let's see.

Agree he has his negatives but the positives far outweigh those more often than not. He is a spark for us. Think how dull our front line would be without him over the last few years. He is exciting to watch when he gets it right and we still need that. Plus we do have Mount to cover him now if he does have bad patch.

This didn't make much sense to me. Wan Bissaka was a brilliant defender. He is the perfect person to keep for squad depth. He may not have been amazing going forward, but when we needed to lock things up he was a fortress! So an amazing option to have. I think West Ham have got an absolute bargain out of us. I think this will come back to bite us when we play the hammers in the league.

I didn't know this was a remake. Never heard of the original. I played Age of Empires 1 & 2. But not this.

How does it compare to AofE then? I might have to give it a try if it's a simpler game, I don't have time for complexity now a days.

I'm not bothered. No chance I'll actually play these games. Just as long as these sorts of crossovers stay in games and don't cross to other media then it's fine.

 

Not the news we wanted to hear overnight from the US tour.

Hojlund and Yoro both injured in the first half, apparently not from tackles but pulling up with separate injuries.

Any updates on their condition? Hope they will be fit before start of the season.

 

Apparently for a documentary. I wonder why they have picked a United game for this? Probably because they know there will be controversy, since we'll likely at some point throw the game by getting in a stupid position that leads to the ref having to make a idiotic and unexplainable call that will ultimately gift Palace a win late on.

 

The youth teams again showing the first team how it's done.

 

Manchester United Vs Everton at Old Trafford

Line up Onana; Diogo Dalot, Varane, Evans, Lindelöf; Mainoo, Casemiro; McTominay, Bruno Fernandes(C), Garnacho; Rashford.

 

Qatari banker Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani has withdrawn from the process to buy Manchester United. He, like the rest of us has given up on dealing with the Glazers and has walked away.

I see a lot of comments saying this is a disaster and the end for Man Utd, but if that is true it was over for us long ago if being bought by some Oil Giants from the Middle East was our only hope.

 

Appreciate the people taking part trying to keep this on the agenda. May be a few years before we'll see any progress but these people are keeping us on the right path, however long it is.

 

I know this isn't a Birmingham City football community but I think it's interesting and positive for the city that such a big name has invested in BCFC. It's another chance to get the city on the map, give it some more positive coverage. And if it works and the new club owners, including Brady, are able to get City back to the Premier League it's got to be good for the city right?

 

Ozzy the Commonwealth Bull is now being set up in his new home at New Street Station. Looking forward to seeing him next time I take a train into town. It's going to be quite the welcome for people arriving in Birmingham for the first time.

 

PreRelease is happening at local games stores on weekends of 29th July and 5th Aug. I'll be going to my local to play. I've always had good luck with pulls from PreRelease, not so much luck with placement in the tournaments.

Who enjoys PreRelease? What experience have you had? Are you looking forward to Obsidian Flames?
