Out today! . Travelogue from Stornoway to South Wales via Scarborough, Sunderland and some places that don't begin with 's'. Social history from murals to Marx via the banning of leaping on Sundays. Guaranteed to leave the Last of the Summer Wine theme tune as your earworm.

The scramble after the game to thank Jonny Howson and say goodbye. Again and again you hear that there's no loyalty in football and that everything's changed - this man said bollocks to that and captivated us with his feet.

I was a 12 year old season ticket holder the last time we won the first four games in a row. My moods were dictated entirely by Boro results and all week I dreamed of Saturday. Nothing has changed, which is probably not good in some ways, but bloody hell: I love this club.

Work took me to Deepdale today. Had to leave just as they were unfurling matchday. I've always loved these. Ideal garden furniture. "PROGRAMMES! PROGRAMMES!"

The term ‘match report’ is misleading, and serves no purpose in describing what football journalism does

Despite my local Ikea's hideous decision to axe free tiny pencils - my number one item of journalistic tech - I've found a supply. As such, I'm soldiering on, back in training and ready for another season of Slow Match Reports for @NutmegMagazine.

Lovely scenes in the London area. Sol Brynn would've caught that sun had it flown into his area, or at least parried it out for a corner.
