Things I learned today (Part 2)

Harry Maguire is still in the England squad.

Joelinton, the Brazilian soccer player hasn’t got a brother Raul or Paddy either.
It appears to be a kind of a christain name with a string of surnames to be added.

He is some man for wan man

My father thinks his name is Joe Linton, and that he’s English.

Pete has serious BDE apparently. You’re talking 99 energy. Kudos to the blackest white man alive. Drove Kanye cray cray.

Dave Fanning is 66.

If you said he was 76 it wouldn’t have surprised me.

What?

Shouldn’t the wanker be retired so?

Mauricio Pochettino roomed with Maradona at Newells Old Boys. Poch tells the story that Maradona requested him to share a room (probably looking for a dogsbody no doubt), but that Poch was in such awe of the great man he just stayed up most of the night staring at him when he eventually did go to sleep.

I most likely heard this, but it doesnt appear to have registered with me. Louis Van Gaal has a progressive form of prostate cancer and while the surgery was successful, he will be stepping back from managing entirely after the World Cup. You’d love to see them pull it off for that reason alone.

Back in Black by AC/DC is the second highest selling album of all time. Thriller is the highest selling.

In 1929 the USSR changed the week from 7 days to 5 days. A week was now 5 days.

You worked 4 days and had a day off. People were divided into 5 colour coded groups with a different day off per group.

They went back to a 7 day week in the 1940s.
