Listening to @arseblog.com interview @jonspurling.bsky.social and his book Highbury and it's 20th anniversary. Made me think of the chapter on Willie Young. I hope we get the Arsenal podcasts discussing Willie. What a player. Very sad to hear this

Liquid 'Sweet Harmony' - a short thread

I went to the wedding party of my friend Rehana this weekend. Rehana and my wife first met at university and they've been friends ever since, and I'm now lucky enough to call Rehana my friend too.

8 years ago the Lions started there official match with a special guest who'd informed everyone prior to a 28 hrs journey to New Zealand he had #mnd. Doddie Weir. #doddieweir. @mndoddie5.bsky.social . Win, lose or draw for #the Lions thoughts with a legend

A very lovely holiday in A Coruna. Ran, ate and swam. And a little drink. Went to Santiago Dos Compostela. Saw Alannis Morissette. #awesome #acoruna

Watching Pulp last week & listening to the album since has had a profound effect on me. I'm reminded me of the things I love about this country & how they've been eclipsed across the last decade by dull little flag waving angry people who don't like anything about it at all... including themselves.

On Sunday, i'll be running my first marathon in Edinburgh for Doddie Weir and his MND charity ‪@mndoddie5.bsky.social‬.Wish me luck

Thanks.

The delights of Premiership football. So Spurs have played just one English team in a European final? I'm not even a spurs fan. This is the Guardian, maybe get someone like @adampowley.bsky.social to tell you the error here ? Or a Wolves fan maybe?

That new Pulp song isn't fucking around at all is it. It's an absolute fucking banger.

@whuhistorian.bsky.social I'm very happy with Declan. Been for job in Sheffield at weekend. No luck but off soon. Hope you're well

Can't listen to podcasts on Arsenal or politics as depressing. So got into listening a podcast The Rewatchables with @seanfennessey.bsky.social . Listening to Sideways and lost in translation.

Finished my proposal for PhD at Nottingham Trent. Not sure if i'll get it but I really just enjoyed the process and support from members of the academic community, friends and family [esp. my girlfriend]. Made me want to read and write more. Tell you how it goes.

@arseblog.com #arsecastextra Question for pod. Does this feel like season 2007-8 all over again? A humiliating defeat in LC semi? Injuries to our attack? A loss in the FA cup? QF defeat in Europe? 4 points ahead in season at xmas, end up third? An unwillingness to buy a striker?
January 8, 2025 at 7:14 AM
PhD proposal is now complete. It's not perfect, but it's been worth it just to research and read again. Still, a few bits to do. Then send it.....

Happy Xmas one and all. Except Trump supporters
