Football shirt collector. Sailor. Enigma.
Did you know that Rapa Nui (aka Easter Island), the remote island in the South Pacific, home of the Moai (giant heads), has a football team? They play their games at the Hanga Roa Stadium and their first official match was in the Chilean cup v Colo Colo in 2009.

Really enjoyed doing this and also listening to the other great collector interviews too.

My final shirt addition of 2024 is this match worn Filippo Bandinelli Spezia away shirt, worn in the 2-0 loss to Palermo on 01/12/24. Another great Kappa shirt for Spezia, and my second match worn shirt for Mr Bandinelli. Will hopefully complete the set in the new year.

Kitscene issue 3 is here and it will make for great Christmas reading. Not only because it is full of pages of kit goodness but also because I got to contribute to it!

The final of my 3 new match worn arrivals is this Slovenia away shirt worn by Erik Janža in the 1-0 Nations League away win v Kazakhstan on 13/10/24. Janža provided the assist for the winning goal from Jan Mlakar. The detailing in the fabric is once again lovely.

The second new match worn shirt arrival is this Villarreal home shirt, worn by Santi Comesaña in the 2-1 away win against Valladolid in La Liga on 26th October 2024. Santi has been one of my favourite players over several versions of Football Manager, delighted to grab one of his shirts.

First of 3 new match worn shirts. This one was worn by Nina Jakobsson in the Damallsvenskan match v Norrköping on 4th May 2024. AIK won 3-2. First Nike player issue shirt in my collection, really nice material. The yellow details on the black really pop, it's a fantastic shirt.

That's me home from my last ship for a while. Will be starting a new role in January, still in the Royal Fleet Auxiliary, but in the recruitment team.
Also: 4 matchworn, 1 squad signed and 4 other shirts have arrived while I've been away 🤣🤣
Photos to follow.

The scabbiest of scabs. Obviously we have our own problems with UK police, the Met in particular, however American police are another breed. Bought and paid for.
At the scene of the Amazon strike:
The NYPD has now erected barricades to allow Amazon contractors to enter and leave the distribution center, helping Amazon break the picket line.

Everton 23/24 Away shirt, patched up with the nameset of Belgian international midfielder Justine Vanhaevermaet. A really nice retro style to this Hummel effort.

It's easy to laugh off stuff like this as American Republicans being loopy, or say stuff like 'they voted for it, they deserve it' but have no doubt, once poor Americans are riddled with diseases that were once eradicated, the world will be.
Make polio great again
Well that’s a bit of hyperbole
RFK jr lawyer “no really.”

The lawyer helping Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pick federal health officials for the incoming Trump administration has petitioned the government to revoke its approval of the polio vaccine, which for decades has protected millions of people from a virus that can cause paralysis or death.

Could just watch Declan Rice putting the ball on top of the keeper with every corner for 90 minutes to be honest.

This is 100% it. Players are happy to compromise their religious beliefs except when it comes to other people. It is the very definition of selective outrage.
Interesting that when it comes to LGBTQ+ support or respect, it's a "no" on religious beliefs.
Yet almost no push back on having sponsors from the alcohol industry, gambling, etc.
Almost like it's a total bullshit excuse.

Been working on something on my website for a while now, not the easiest thing to do when on a ship, but I'm very happy with how it all turned out, and if you're in any way inclined to take a look, or throw a like or share my way, I'd be eternally grateful!
Cheers all!

I don't expect to see so many commentators earnestly suggesting that Arsenal would be better off with Emery than Arteta this weekend.

At least some of the West Ham fans might stay for the second half this time.

Norwich and Arsenal have both scored 4 today.
Today is a good day.
Also yesterday I got offered a job I interviewed for earlier in the week so it's really going quite well overall.
