John Arne Riise on the time he met his childhood bully in a McDonald's shortly after they won the Champions League. "I went back to my old city which was Aalesund, because my brother's child was doing something there which I wanted to go and support. Anyway, I parked my car up and I recognised a guy, walking towards me... it was one of the kids who used to bully me." "I could see he was wearing a McDonald's shirt, and there was a McDonald's about 100 yards away from where I'd parked. I just thought to myself 'I have to do this'." "I bought myself a red Ferrari, which got delivered just a couple of days before our summer break. I decided to bring it back to Norway with me, because I'd just got it, and I wanted to use it for the month during my break," he explained. "In Norway, the rule seems to be that you shouldn't believe you're something which you're not, but I was really proud of what I'd achieved that year, and it was always a dream of mine to own that car, so if ever I got the chance, I was going to buy it." However, despite his humble ethos, he shared how he could not resist approaching his former bully to hammer home the comparison in their lifestyles. "There's nothing wrong with working in McDonald's, by the way. But, you know, the comparison was that this guy was there, and I was here - that was my first thought.” "So, I walked into the McDonald's and went over to his counter. He was looking down, taking orders, and so he called me over and looked up. You know when you have to double-take someone? That's what he did, and that's when I knew he knew who I was. "He knew that I'd just won the Champions League. He knew the Ferrari was mine, and I knew what he was doing now - again, there's nothing wrong with it, but the comparison was so big." Riise then revealed his final insult and claimed, despite not making a big scene, he felt satisfied with the outcome of the subtle, yet striking reunion. "He took my order, I got my McDonald's, thanked him very much and walked away. "Obviously, I threw the McDonald's into the bin, but the feeling I got when I walked out of there, just made everything worth it for me. You don't need to do anything crazy, or say anything stupid, but in that moment, just going up to order from him, for me that was enough. He knew, and I knew." What a story… 🤣

Paul Peschisolido on Neil Warnock taking the Sheffield United players bowling: “He convinced us all to put £10 in a pot, winner takes all. “We agreed for some fun, then he pulled out his own bowling shoes and custom ball, shot 250 and took all our money.” 😂

🚨We are now in a place where a whole town gets locked down by the Government for a boat that has not arrived…. Gosport. Haslar Bridge shut. Coaches at Fort Blockhouse. Masks banned. A dispersal order on the entire town until 7am Tuesday. Anyone who wants to stand there is sent to a car park. If not you’re threatened with arrest.. The boat is still in French waters. The government will not even say this is the landing. Last time, they took the people to Dover.

EXCLUSIVE. Coaches being flanked by police escort again here in Hampshire. Looks like a big arrival imminent with that amount of coaches.

🚨 Harry Kane on Jude Bellingham’s performance against Croatia: “I said something to Jude after the match. ‘You know, you’ve made the rest of us look a little lazy tonight.’ He smiled and said, ‘You scored twice.’ I said, ‘Exactly. And somehow I’m still standing here talking about you.’ One goal, three assists. I got two goals. Bukayo got two. Gordon was brilliant. And Jude somehow managed to leave fingerprints on almost everything. That’s what makes playing with him strange. Before my first goal, I see Jude with the ball and start moving. With some players, you’re making the run hoping they’ve seen you. With Jude, sometimes I think he’s seen the run before I’ve decided to make it. Goal. Later Gordon scores after Jude has helped move us through the pitch again, Bukayo gets involved, everybody is enjoying themselves. At half-time we’re four up. I remember sitting down and saying, ‘Jude, that’s enough now. Let somebody else play football.’ He just laughed. Then late in the game Morgan Rogers comes on. Fresh player. Probably thinking, ‘Six-nil, I’ll just enjoy the last twenty minutes.’ Jude apparently decides Morgan shouldn’t leave empty-handed either. Another pass. Goal. Third assist. Afterwards Morgan came over smiling and I told him, ‘Don’t get used to this. Normally international football is difficult.’ Jude was standing nearby and said, ‘Just make the run.’ That’s him. People have spent years debating his position. Is he an eight? Is he a ten? Should he play deeper? Should England build around somebody else? As captain, I’ve stopped caring what number you put next to his name. Put Jude where he can see the game. We’ll work out the rest. Because I’ve played with some unbelievable footballers for England, and the rare ones eventually reach a point where you stop being surprised by ridiculous performances. Tonight Jude scores once and assists three goals in a 7–0 win, and somehow nobody in our dressing room is shocked. That’s probably the biggest compliment I can give him. A few years ago, that performance would’ve announced Jude Bellingham. Now? It’s just Jude having a good night.”

Saturday's the day we play the game.

THEY WILL MAKE YOU PAY TO BREATHE...THE WEF WANTS TO MONETIZE OXYGEN AS A BILLABLE ASSET. “Water, soil & oxygen should not be infinitely accessible. They are assets that should be included in global economic balance sheets.” The World Economic Forum believes you have NO right to the air you breathe, the water you drink, or the soil under your feet. They want to monetize breathing itself — turning it into a privilege you have to pay for, tracked, taxed, and controlled by global elites. Your very existence will be a billable service on their balance sheet. This is the Great Reset in action: total control over the fundamentals of human life. The elites are coming for your breath.

🚨Lisa Nandy. “Goes full North Korean” First in the world, she says, a comprehensive social media ban for children. Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and X, off for under-16s from next spring. On games, livestreaming and talking to strangers switched off for under-16s, and off by default at 16 and 17. To enforce it, the government will demand you prove who you are. A ban sold as protecting kids, and an identity check for everyone else.

🇬🇧 Meanwhile in England “He won’t pay, he won’t pay” Tradesmen throughout the West be warned. There is a certain growing Culture that often simply refuse to pay for work even though they have no reason not too.
