Doddery, grumpy, and pedantic old git from Herne Bay in Kent with a passion for England Test Cricket, addiction to West Ham, dislike of the Conservative Party and dismay at the indifference to the climate emergency.

Billy Bonds was my West Ham captain growing up and then the manager on my first forays into away travel.
I shed a tear when I heard the news yesterday.
A legend that can never be replaced.
Rest in peace ⚒️

Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement.
Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph
Because this does NOT add up!
No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies…

Talking saves lives and we need to be honest about our mental health. It’s alright for boys and men to cry. Mental heath is just as important as physical health.

At this point watching anything other than West Ham is advisable.

The morning after…..
Abject from West Ham
Club is rotten on and off the pitch.
Players stealing a living.
Owners stealing a history and a culture .
Selection was questionable at best and suicidal at worst
Derby’s 12 point record is under serious threat
Time to change
SULLIVAN AND BRADY OUT

Private Eye offers up an excellently scornful commentary on the relentless polling. It’s become ridiculous and has oversimplified our politics to dangerous levels of stupid and irresponsible.

When Reform's Nathan Gill is sentenced for bribery, he will be the third of Nigel Farage's former MEPs to be jailed for being corrupt, after Tom Wise (expenses fraud) and Ashley Mote (falsely claiming benefits). What is it about Farage that attracts crooks?
