I love how salty City fans are getting over people finding Haaland's record...well, dull. I think they must assume everybody is as overjoyed as they are that they've gamed everything at their disposal to eradicate any form of meaningful competition in this league.

It's a pretty big achievement, regardless of which team you're in, to score a goal a game.

It is a big achievement, but it's not a surprising one. Before the season started I'd been telling people he'd probably get 50.

I was listening to a podcast and they mentioned how Dixie Dean had to have a bollock removed after a nasty challenge for Tranmere when he was 17. Then 17 years later in a pub in Chester a man brought him a pint and he recognised it was the one who caused him to lose a bollock so he went over and battered him. Haven't looked this up but it's quite funny to retaliate 17 years later if it is.
I am confused now as I didn’t know if there was such a word as bollock. Always thought there was no singular for bollocks.

You've obviously never dropped one.
