I just watched yesterday's #Championship highlights on @itvx.com and crikey so many cracking games and goals! The league is really hitting its stride now this season, and wide open (as ever) for the play-off places.

Could all of the UK home nations, plus Ireland, make it to World Cup 2026?! Can they avoid each other in the playoffs??

#WatfordFC old boysi King Ken Sema and Domingos Quina's Pafos have just earned a Cyprus club's first Champions League win in 14 years by beating lumbering Pape Gueye's Villareal

6 years ago this was the big #WatfordFC debate 😜

FWIW I'm glad we stuck with the good old recognisable moose!

I've just watched some of this on BBC2 - incredible interview with Tom Fletcher

Political Thinking with Nick Robinson - Gaza, Trump and me: UN humanitarian chief Tom Fletcher - BBC Sounds
Seeing Gaza is like 'driving through the ruins of Hiroshima, or Stalingrad, or Dresden'.

As far as competitive matches for entertaining football watching go... the Champions League was awful tonight with easy wins galore (and a nil nil between two also-rans) whilst the Championship games I watched some of were much better!

Shall we have a proper #WatfordFC reset now?
Where are we at...

- Same owner & Chair/CEO
- New(old) manager & coaches
- Talented & balanced squad
- Consistency needs to improve
...from everyone 😘
- Results will still be mixed
- Haven't won away since Feb
- But expectation is play-offs
- YouOrns!

Are you an unwanted football manager? Young, unknown and from a random country? Old, past it and feeling discarded?

Come to the 'Gino Pozzo Home For Football Managers' at #WatfordFC to find a new opportunity, then soon after, a nice pay-off!

(PS. Quite like the AI misspelling)

This tweet has been doing the rounds on Twitter now that Nathan Gill has pleaded guilty.

If only someone had tried to investigate UKIP & Russian interference 🧐

There’s another timeline where the Guardian supported me, doubled down on the investigation & I look 5 years younger ..

This #TShirtDay on @BBC6Music I'm celebrating Don'Worry who are currently on their Idealism album tour. Playing at Wharf Chambers, Leeds tonight - I was at their Lexington, London gig on Friday which was belting!

I loved Coldplay in 2005 when I saw them at Glastonbury. Absolute fair play to them for still going, and doing this ludicrously big tour.

But who is actually going to watch them now? I mean just sooo many people want to see this stuff. My guess is the Radio 2 / MagIc FM types around the world?

Last November Farage told Sky News:

“I’ve just exchanged contracts on the house that I’ll be living there in – is that good enough?… *I’ve bought a house in Clacton* What more do you want me to do?”

Oh, I dunno Nigel.

Tell the truth?

Nigel Farage admits he was wrong to say he had bought house in Clacton
Reform UK leader says he should not have claimed he was buyer of property that was really bought by his partner

✅ Head to VoteClimate.uk/register and tell Labour climate is your top priority at the next election.

Such a cool, beautiful album 🎶

Listening on the train back to London. Somewhat accidentally, as I use Les Nuits as a morning alarm, so just kept it playing for the journey.
