She sounds like the sort of artist who has been in the top 40 before as a feature, a bit like RAYE pre 2020s.

This is probably the most open season ever and therefore so hard to predict. It’s like year zero when there’s no real favourites. And yes, I don’t think arsenal are as good as we all think but will be favs as they won the league last time. Similar to Liverpool this time last year 👀

Or the Faily Mail reporting his weight when he was out for a run. Stories like that should really be banned

I work in the housing sector and see first hand how many people now claim PIP and how many children have diagnosis. I think they expect PIP to rise from 24 billion ore Covid in 2019 to 48 billion by 2034. I just want a fair system that the people who are vulnerable get protected and don’t risk losing out because the people who BS their way to these payments claim it and aren’t entitled to it. As Rooney said above the self employed who make up their incomes yearly are just as bad. The system has to be seen to be fair or it’ll fall apart.

Voted for Royal Blood

Some summer at city losing Pep, Rodri and Bernardo Silva all at once, surely it’ll be difficult for them to compete this season after that.

We will get at least one champions league group stage new comer this season as the Azerbaijani champions Sabah FK and Israeli champions Beer meet in this playoff. I know what most European nations will be hoping the winner to be! 👀 Azerbaijan titleholders Sabah were only founded nine years ago, but the club from Masazir just outside Baku scored four unanswered second-half goals against Aarhus to reach the play-offs. Hapoel Beer-Sheva also made impressive progress, dispatching former European champions Crvena Zvezda 3-0 on aggregate. Serbian forward Igor Zlatanović, formerly of Partizan, was among the scorers and will be a key man again against Sabah. The first leg takes place in Bucharest, Romania. The only 2 teams who are still competing at this stage who started their campaign in the 1st qualifying round on 12th July are the aforementioned Azerbaijani champs Sabah FK and Bulgarian champions Levski Sofia - fair play to them, both only 2 games away from a meeting with the big leagues of Spain/Germany/England/Italy after 8 gruelling summer games.

Fourteen teams are involved in the play-off round: ten from the Champions Path (four enter in this round, along with the six winners of the third qualifying round) and four from the League Path (the four winners from the third qualifying round). The winners of each tie advance to the league phase of the Champions League while defeated sides switch to the league phase of the UEFA Europa League.

Champions League Playoff Rd 1st Leg 17/19th Aug 26 Teams entering at this stage have their country in brackets. League route Dinamo Zagreb vs Viking Stavanger (Norway) Fenerbache vs Lyon Levski Sofia vs AEK Athens (Greece) Champions route Celtic (Scotland) vs LASK (Austria) Hapoel Be’er Sheva vs Sabah FK NEC Breda vs Bodo/Glimt Slovan Bratislava vs Celje

Did they A List it after it went to No1?

Thought they might, hardly a R1 anthem if they snubbed it at the time 😆

It’d be funny if we weren’t making these Xmas jokes up this time last year 😬

I always remember thinking at the time that they added the Coldplay track as they were so big and wanted to continue to play more tracks from the album as there was no cd single release (which was a shock at the time). Does anyone know if they play ‘Breathe’ on R1 Anthems like they do with ‘Moves Like Jagger’?

They won’t move there in 2029 but more likely in 2034. As I said previously the ideology or positions don’t matter as much as the electoral cycle when it comes to these kind of seats. But your right they may have to move to the centre if they are allowed in the 2030s to do that.

Yeh i agree, I was 20 and in uni. So many good retro songs. I guess late 2003 was when they were preparing to introduce the Brit pop II era with bands like The Darkness, Snow Patrol and Franz Ferdinand getting top 40 hits in the next 12 months. Was that Coldplay track a single? Also KOL with their first truely big era being supported and QOTSA on the C List then and they were Hottest Record just a few weeks ago on Jack Saunders show.

Went for The Big Moon!

Nice to see R1 are on board from the off. Hope they do well alongside other bands like this who are doing well like Keo, South Arcade and the likes.

Yes, but in many of the seats the alternative is the Liberals not Labour, so if things turn around again (which we will know they will now the establishment media has decided to go for Farage and Reform) those seats will likely turn Tory again.

Taking away all the nonsense, if they did hit Trump wouldn’t Vance be happy, he’d be president. Also, wouldn’t it just end up being even? They assassinated the Iranian leader. Also, as I said above which you haven’t answered, they didn’t annihilate them in Feb, what makes you think they can now?

Have they not tried to bomb and annihilate Iran already and came to the negotiating table with their tales between their legs.

Yeh agreed it’s a hard balance to make. I do believe a Tory party the English are ready to listen to would win those said Lib Dem seats no matter what. I think some of those seat (bar a few) are tory when Labour are doing poorly and liberal when there a protest against the blue party no matter their policies.
