Kids in small-town, normally-overlooked bits of England discovering a bit of regional identity and pride, learning independence of travel and supporting non-commercialised sport. Really isn’t too far removed from being an allround good thing tbh.
Great primer on an increasing issue in non-league football. Most fans can't stand them. It really took off post-Covid and has never abated since.

My hottest take is that where we are now with sex pest bullying from TV 20 years ago, is where we will be 20 years from now with the psychological aspects of Traitors and the like.

Everyone always says “trains don’t work like this any more”, no one ever asks “why don’t we make trains that work like this any more?”
Just another example of modern technology that doesn’t actually do the job as well as the stuff it replaced
Absolutely baffling that 99% of BBC Sport (and News) output is written like this now; but the remaining 1% is Tom English producing the absolute polar opposite
I know nobody cares about the written word any more, but sometimes @BBCSport now seems to go out if its way to produce the most hideous prose imaginable.
Good grief

Almost certain the 16 year old used dad’s credit card to pay to select that seat, so he wouldn’t have to sit next to this clown for ten hours
Well done @British_Airways - a family of three holiday booked and you’ve decided to put my 16 year old son in a middle seat five rows and the other side of the plane.
It’s the BA32 flight from Hong Kong to Heathrow tonight. Can you help?
Mum wearing a face mask in the interview, there goes any sympathy I might have had
A Hampshire couple have been fined £600 and ordered to pay a further £6,000 in costs for allowing their 14-year-old son to work on the family's mobile food trailer.
Dexter, their son, enjoys it and has a passion for it.
That’s typical of the laws in this country. Encourage the work shy and penalise the hard working.
As if the stress on this family weren’t enough the family said they were tackling the dispute with the council while supporting eldest son Oskar, 17, while he received treatment for blood cancer.

Whilst this is obviously completely absurd; considering it’s all just various social faux pas, I wonder who will be the first person hauled up on such complaints to use the “I’m ASD neurodiverse and don’t understand social norms and cues” excuse
