So, @james1940 0:34-0:39:
- Budyonny warns: “Withdrawal of Southwestern Front will lead to losses in men and a large quantity of equipment.”
In fact, Budyonny warns: “DELAY in withdrawal of Southwestern Front will lead to losses in men and a large quantity of equipment.”🤯

Et voilà, la pièce de résistance.
@james1940 0:34-0:39:

Has anyone on @WeHaveWaysPod bothered to check whether this makes any sense?

I think that’s what they call a “breathless first half”. The 10 minutes when Liverpool went 2-0 a up - a glimpse of what’s to come. Brighton are superb. Araujo - the best player on the pitch. OMG, this is so much FUN!!!
We lead at the break 🙌 #LIVBHA
ALT Half-time graphic for Liverpool vs Brighton in the Premier League. The half-time score is Liverpool 2-0 Brighton.
I chose not to remember Sander Westerveld doing THAT against Chelsea.
@Andrew_Heaton left me with no choice. You have to remember it too now.

Wouldn’t say that’s the most Arteta thing imaginable but it’s in the top one.
Chelsea - Spurs easily the most toxic for me, Clive. So spiteful.
Brentford - Fulham at the other end of the scale. I mean, come on… plus both hate someone else more.
This is the London map of Premier League hatred.
Ahead of Chelsea against Tottenham Hotspur, The Athletic asked its London football experts to weigh in on the three teams their club’s fans dislike the most.
■ Tottenham top biggest rival list at two clubs
■ The team with no Premier League rivals
■ Brentford’s mindset shift

Full credit to @almurray btw. He summed up my despair perfectly.
Get the man his own show. He should be on stage!
FIN. 🫡

Remember that meeting @ Stalin’s on the 11th? Wasn’t just about Kirponos.
They were also changing commanders
19:10: Len. Front - Voroshilov out, Zhukov in
19:20: Western Front - Konev in
19:25: SW Dir. - Budyonny out, Timoshenko in
Not very “sacked on the spot”, is it?

Finally, how does Stalin react to Budyonny’s warning? @James1940 (0:50-0:55): “Well, he goes apesh!t. Sacks Budyonny on the spot.”
There is a tiny flaw with this story.
The warning came by telegram in the morning & the directive removing Budyonny was sent in the evening.

Wise words, applicable to both, the situation of the Southwestern Front on 11 Sep 1941 and this 55-second clip. (9/n)
On we go
@James1940 0:27-0:33 brings in Budyonny, creating false chronology, as the Stalin-Kirponos call happens after it on the 11th, not the night before.
In fact, in the transcript of the Stalin-Kirponos call you can see Stalin referencing & quoting Budyonny’s report.
