My first ever Champions League game at SJP made for a great evening. Lucky enough to be behind the goal for Burn’s beautiful header. Very impressed with our back line: Thiaw and Trippier were excellent and I am very excited for the day when Hall is back at full fitness.

Great time watching The Stan win the Newcastle Flooring Senior Cup yesterday at St James’ Park. Really entertaining game with a historic win!

Feeling very proud to have not only finished the Manchester Marathon but to do it in 3:30:45 in baking heat 🫠

Anyway, when I was working on my marathon of every surviving story before the 60th anniversary I worked on this list of top five stories for each Doctor.

Here’s mine - also opted against Haaland and Salah in order to invest in other players who can yield very good returns.

I listened to The Rest is Politics on my run (I know, I know) and they were advertising free Bollocks to Brexit passport covers if you subscribe to The New European. Think the Lib Dems should make a similar offer with their manifesto.
