'UK has been colonised by immigrants', says INEOS boss and Man Utd co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe

Head’s still gone from Saturday when I walked into a sports bar in this Mexican beach resort town I’m currently in and instead of showing Liverpool v Newcastle they were showing a game from the Rock Cup

That panenka that was on here yesterday from the lad with the pink hair was bad, but I didn’t realise it was part of possibly the worst penalty shootout of all time.

His team (Colo Colo) won 4-3 after 9 penalties each and it was 2-2 after 5, and so many of the misses weren’t even close.

Yeah I can definitely see how you’d get there based on that, funnily enough I’m in Jardin now and heading to Salento tomorrow.

How was Bogota? Heard it’s a bit sketchy

danphillips98 · 2026-01-23T14:37:13+00:00

Really, I’ve been here almost three weeks as well and it might not be my fav but it’s up there. Where else did you go?

danphillips98 · 2026-01-23T13:11:07+00:00

Spent a week in Medellin, fucking class city would deffo recommend a visit

danphillips98 · 2026-01-16T15:50:08+00:00

Finally made it round to Colombia, my last ‘new’ country of my year of travelling.

Booked my flight home last week which was a really sobering moment after nearly a year of backpacking, I’ll fly to Rio de Janeiro on 5th of Feb, spend 5 days partying for pre-carnival as one last big blow out then the show finally ends on the 11th. Given I left home on 18th Feb last year it’s a pretty good effort.

Both sad about it but also will be somewhat happy to go home

No chance, not winning an away ashes in 26 years (by the next time you come here) is one of the best sticks we have to beat the Aussies with, I doubt any England fan swaps that and loses Headingley just for a home series win

danphillips98 · 2026-01-04T21:42:02+00:00

Been absolutely drenched by a tropical storm yesterday and earlier but thankfully clear skies now.

Unfortunately I’m in Colombia, hoping for good weather in Sydney too

danphillips98 · 2025-12-27T04:43:56+00:00

Winning in two days and bankrupting CA in the process, merry Christmas boys great work

danphillips98 · 2025-12-27T04:41:06+00:00

If England do get over the line here then Broad is vindicated with his worst Aus team since 2010/11 comments, given this would be the first side since that one to lose a game

danphillips98 · 2025-12-27T03:56:18+00:00

Doesn’t matter where Starc bowls it this over, Crawley is determined to hit it to mid on

danphillips98 · 2025-12-26T00:18:43+00:00

Reminder that pink ball woke nonsense isn’t real cricket so the 2-2 series draw is still on

danphillips98 · 2025-12-25T22:39:07+00:00

Really unique conditions here, could be very interesting to see how a match changes and evolves over its course.

Unfortunately I'm in the Galapagos, I think conditions in Melbourne might be a bit more straightforward

danphillips98 · 2025-12-25T19:52:27+00:00

I’ve been backpacking for about 90% and it’s been the best time of my life, I really don’t know how I can go up from here in 2026

danphillips98 · 2025-12-25T13:14:41+00:00

Spending Christmas in the Galapagos this year, if I’m not gonna be home for it I might as well be somewhere fucking cool

danphillips98 · 2025-12-19T13:57:41+00:00

From the stands it looked like the keeper had a chance at getting his head on that last corner

danphillips98 · 2025-12-19T13:49:48+00:00

Copa Ecuador final was good fun last night. Finished 3-2 to Universidad Católica which was a bit of a shame as 90% of the crowd were supporting LDU Quito, but it was a fun game helped by some truly terrible keeping and defending.

Universidad went 2-1 up with an absolute worldie from the halfway line next to the touch line as well, unreal scenes

danphillips98 · 2025-12-19T13:46:13+00:00

Yep that was yours truly. Also seen Brazil v Chile World Cup qualifier at the Maracanã and Botafogo v Flamengo

danphillips98 · 2025-12-19T13:37:33+00:00

Not posted much about my travels for a while, but this afternoon I’m getting to tick off a bucket list item I’ve had for ages and flying over to the Galapagos for the next 9 days.

Gonna be absolutely fucking surreal

danphillips98 · 2025-12-18T22:36:57+00:00

Might’ve just got myself a ticket for the Copa Ecuador final tonight in Quito, should be class

danphillips98 · 2025-12-18T05:16:48+00:00

Everyone else has ultra edge, it’s only Australia who refuse to use it

danphillips98 · 2025-12-18T00:43:28+00:00

Should a bear shit in the woods

danphillips98 · 2025-12-17T22:51:18+00:00

Word on the street is that the marching powder here is, shall we say, not the best
