News and #FPL obsessive (🌍21st in 23/24 if you must ask).
A bit of cycling too.
Nice to see a bit of sunshine. I wonder what tomorrow will bring?

I thought that hoarding transfers in #fpl would leave me in a great position for the big pivot in #gw24. Turns out the choices are incredibly underwhelming 😔

Before you ask, it's £12 for the Fosters ashtray.

Probably read less really good books this year than previous years. But these two are the standout fiction and non-fiction reads of 2025 for me. #booksky #booksof2025

We've got to that point in the season where everyone's team feels a bit similar (seems to come earlier every year, like 🎄)

Being up all night covering a by-election is not great for #FPL transfer planning when there's a Friday deadline.

Before the gw6 wildcard: 4.3m 🌍
After the gw8 bench boost: 1.1m 🌍

83pts this week. I think Saka's calling. #FPL

I think I saw Jeremy Doku nutmeg two defenders at the same time tonight. What a ridiculously good footballer he is.

Give it to Allardyce until the end of the season.

Managed to get some Super Furry Animals tickets for next May. Not quite the bargain price they were first time round... #SFA #bargen

Decent wildcard - decent progress. Up to the top 2.5million 🥳 If my subs can repeat this next week on a bench boost I'll be very happy. #FPL
September 29, 2025 at 9:04 PM
Only three of these are surviving on the wildcard. Warra season so far. #FPL

What could have been for Joe! I'll take it anyway. #FPL

I've worked at the BBC for nearly 15 years. People are always talking about a guy called Ed Poll, who I've never met but is across all kinds of big decisions. Last week, I learned it's actually a department called Editorial Policy.
