Ten years ago today, I asked my childhood sweetheart, my best friend and the most beautiful woman in the world to marry me. All three said “no”.

Just set a new PB for the number of times I’ve said “For fuck’s sake” whilst watching an #oufc match.

Not the worst thing from tonight, but do you know which word doesn’t remotely rhyme with “zombie”?
Franco.
Do you know what team name rhymes perfectly with “zombie”?
Swansea.

We are definitely one of *those* clubs now then. Hire and fire. Rich owner’s playset. Whether you agree or not that Rowett needed to be replaced, the timing stinks. We will only progress as a club if we have a DNA that runs through everything, as we had in the Appleton era. #oufc

The slow creep of 12:30 kick offs, the distant owners watching games on iFollow, journeymen coming in on big salaries, and match activations was noticeable, but I could turn a blind eye to the changing culture at #oufc. But that can no longer be ignored when they sacked Des.

If you want to see Fackham Hall in the cinema, do it this weekend before Avatar commandeers all the screens like they’re made from unobtainium.

It was a total pleasure to be interviewed by @simonbrew.bsky.social on a podcast I have listened to since it began. Talk of Fackham Hall, camcorder origins and CGI pig.

All professional footballers can hit the ball with a ping but Cameron Brannagan connects with the purest of all pings - it makes a different noise to anyone else. (Also - yes, he did move the ball, but the keeper rechecked the wall afterwards - it was just perfect power and placement!) #oufc

Very much enjoyed new Mitchell & Webb on C4. If you like sketch comedy and want it to thrive, get watching.
Here’s my thing on why sketch comedy is so important…

With sketch output declining on television, comedy writer Andrew Dawson has written this compelling call for more shows to be commissioned.
