Under-reported by the media but also under-reported by Labour.

Stuff like this lands a lot better than worthless Tory-esque soundbites like ‘We’ll put more money in your pocket!’
Yesterday the government confirmed the £69bn funding for councils, a 6.8% increase on the previous year.

It includes £880m more for the Social Care Grant and £270m for the new Children's Social Care Prevention Grant.

Another #safc player that gets stick but was excellent today was dan Neil. Not playing in his best position but that role just in front of the back 4 is so important. Gonna get caught out now and again but never shirks. Always trying to set play up and make things happen. Bit of credit due.

I think it is safe to assume that that FA cup game is going to firmly be a Saturday 3 o'clock game

And yesterday's trip to Sheffield United is now at number in the biggest gaps in trips. I was last at Brammal Lane in 1998(4-0, Bridges retired Brucey). 26 years, I'm not sure there are many other grounds that can beat that gap

Says a lot that about 90% of the traffic I’m seeing on X right now is absolutely convinced the British govt is about to embark on a mass programme of state murder of the elderly and vulnerable. What was until recently the town square of politics has become the preserve of the bad, mad and deranged.

Finished work for today, off tomorrow and all roads lead to Sheffield.

But first, pub tonight

I know I shouldn't laugh really as I've been there trying to get a ticket for a sold out away game. But the amount of posts on FB asking for 4+ tickets for Fridays game is hilarious
Bluesky - ‘Point gained in circumstances, have a nice weekend lads!’

X - ‘Fuck them gutless bastards and Speakman out’

Facebook - ‘Anyone got 6 tickets for Sheff Utd away going?’

Good news, nightshift had not kicked my arse this week the way it normally does.

Not saying I'm full of beans, just not as wiped as usual

Both in the news today for differing reasons. Michael Sheen who remortgaged his house to fund the Homeless World Cup, Jeremy Clarkson who bought a farm to evade tax.
