#MALKYMACKAY

The former boss at Cardiff City and Wigan Athletic was confirmed as the SFA’S new performance director. The general reaction was less than positive. @Smileyphil73 said: “Malky Mackay, Donald Trump, Honey G – 2016, what a year to be alive!!” @p_mcpartlin said: “I wonder what kind of texts Malky Mackay would have had to have sent for the Scottish FA NOT to want to appoint him.” @Rafferty1993 joked: “The Malky Mackay situation stuns me. Is our centre half situation that bad we call up a man who hasn’t played since 2008? Strachans lost it.” But @scottconnie said: “In the minority here but I think Malky Mackay will do an excellent job.”

#PINKPANTHER

It was announced that Rivington Biscuits, the company behind Pink Panther wafers, were expected to enter liquidation. It is believed that the company will cite Brexit as the cause. @Peterjstockwell said: “So #Brexit kills off pink panther wafer biscuits. Well done British people. Slow handclap.” @Iscentyouaday said: “I can’t believe it. I’ve loved Pink Panther wafers since before the internet.” @fudgecrumpet said: “Are they actually called Pink Panther Wafers? Isn’t that violation of copyright?” But @seantheyid1018 said: “GOOD, Pink Panther aint a biscuit anyway you ever dipped one of those in tea, well done 52 per cent of Britain #brexit”

#21STCENTURYFOX

British broadcaster Sky has reached agreement with 21st Century Fox on a takeover deal reportedly worth £11.7bn. @Nottmsteveh said: “Sky takeover will be a disaster if it happens. Government need to step in to stop this, but not very optimistic.” @londonblacktaxi said: “Got all excited thinking takeover would remove the Murdochs from Sky then I woke up!” @Growthinvestor1 said: “Murdoch’s Brexit plan worked, only way he would get SKY, Cameron said no, so he arranged Brexit lies #brexitshambles.” But @Richardmclean1 said: “I don’t really see how the 21st Century Fox takeover is going to make much of a difference.”
