I suspect it won’t be the case when all matches have been played, but I can’t recall a leading scorer netting more goals than the next two players combined in any such table…

Visited my parents in the town in Italy where I grew up.
Should have told the staff in a local bar that abbreviating ‘analcolico’ (“alcohol-free”) in a touristy town is not a good idea.
Couldn’t quite find the right words so didn’t.

Every Saturday the same question, especially if I was RD at parkrun because then I leave even earlier to get there (and it’s a 20-mi run)…

It would be unfair to label Moonchild Sanelly & @nadineshah.bsky.social as “opening acts” for Self Esteem. Absolutely phenomenal performances all round last night. Shah’s voice in particular shone far more than on record…
