This happened to me a few years back. Senior exec got some flak for bar management and sometime had to take a fall. That was me - got offered a settlement. Just under 50% of my salary, plus bonus, holiday pay etc if I left that day. Otherwise they would make me redundant, work my 3 month notice and get statutory. I got a solicitor involved - immediately got the offer multiplied by 1.5x and made them pay for outplacement services - which helped me define my career, apply for jobs and get working again within 6 weeks.

Spurs have also had an element like that.

Someone was trying to sell those 'on the charge with Farage' stickers on X last year. Had a lot of threats made against him by West Ham fans. We do have our share of idiots following us, but we also have a lot of fans who are proud of our heritage in fighting against racism.

When I was a kid back in the 80s, I distinctly remember being scared of going Christmas shopping in London because of terrorism. I wish I'd known then that the face of terrorism was actually much more like a yellow pages advert than what I'd built up in my head. I'd have been a lot less scared.

Pour wet concrete in there, to just over the top of the newspaper. Poke a cosy hangar into the top. Wait to set. Pull the concrete block out. You might need a new bottom bracket.

That's not a cyclist. He's riding a lime bike.

That looks awful. I'd rather feast on the flesh of my dead mother than eat that. 🤮

Don't give the name of the hotel - it might encourage people to give it horrible Google reviews.

Which would be a real shame.
