Nope, an inflatable power boat.

So was the downtime to lumber us with the new layout that looks like a horrible kids site from the early 2000s and seems to be ever more common on modern forums? Why have internet forums become obssessed with these sort of skins in recent years? One of the reasons I liked talkfootball was because it had the feeel of 'classic forum' - this is dreadful.

Water deaths in this recent heatwave seem incredibly high at 40 deaths in July as of yesterday and more today sadly, an unintended but entirely foreseeable consequence of closing swimming pools during Covid given the younger age of many of these? Or just drunks?

Anyone noticed the Google entry for this site coming up as chineee/Japanese some other country characters?

Season Ticket renewals are open. Seems to be an indication there will be a general sale period afterwards

It isn't April fools day, I had to check too don't worry

This has to be some sort of 'there thick of enough to think I'm serious so I'm running with it' performance art!!!

There's no definition of abuse in the article whatsoever, it's hard to qualify whether or not 'abuse' is something to be worried about. 'Your a useless fucking moron, missing that' is technically abusive, but I don't think most of us would be saying nobody should be allowed to say it.

Read the article, that's not the case. They're counting anything abusive, Harry Kane comes in for 100+ in the tally, not racially motivated. The 2,000 figure is being unfairly linked to racism to grab headlines, it's disappointingly tabloid-ish from the Guardian.

Across England’s three group games against Croatia, Scotland and the Czech Republic the Guardian identified 2,114 abusive tweets directed towards or naming the players and Southgate. This included 44 explicitly racist tweets, with messages using the N-word and monkey emojis directed at black players, and 58 that attacked players for their anti-racist actions, including taking the knee. So 1,900+ of those weren't racist. Abusive is a very broad term
