Blown away by the kind support for my upcoming book. The last two and a bit years was essentially me telling myself that nobody would care, or want to buy it. Writing 75000 words I was convinced nobody would ever see. So thanks for the love 🙏. Order:

What on earth has become of Manchester Utd and Rangers? Absolute howlers of clubs these days. Is it a symptom of decline in the quality of top flight British football more generally?.

Going to a National Trust property, having an ice cream and obsessing over Nectar points is the new ten pints in a beer garden.

Winning the league aren’t we.
#Boro's pressing pays off again. Morris wins the ball off Topic in the Norwich half, plays a one-two with Hackney, and slides a low cross across the box that Conway turns in from close range. Two goals in three minutes. 0-2.

Every time I see a YouTuber acting like a chopper, it’s on Market Street. Manchester has fallen. Sort it out.

Everyone in Manchester losing their heads over a London pizza brand that’s just been bought by a German pizza brand via the fund that spun out Gail’s nationwide. Fair play to them but it’s just another chain now. Manchester has much better.
McWin-backed brand L’Osteria to acquire majority stake in Pizza Pilgrims

The very simple way to make football better is to cancel parachute payments. Yet somehow they persist.

Ok, because I’ve spent the last couple of years watching Red Star, here’s a player to watch. Loaned out last year and a raw talent the previous non-league campaign, Jovany Ikanga has all the ingredients to be a Ligue 2 menace up front, in the 10 or off the right. Big potential.
