Couldn't miss the opportunity to watch Good Will Hunting on the big screen, as it's a movie I've always enjoyed. Watching it, I realised that I hadn't seen it since Robin Williams passed. He really was special, wasn't he? ❤️

If I'm mistaken, and reincarnation is real, please don't let me come back as an amphibian. I've tried the whole 'body covered in slime' thing over the summer, and it's not for me. 🫠 Happy Autumn!

Stepping into a gym environment for the first time since I was a teenager was pretty intimidating (some of the machines look a bit like torture devices), but I really enjoyed my first two sessions. Feeling positive and motivated. 💪

Carpark: "Full" If I parked in the overflow, knowing what a pain in the ass it can be, I'd be very unamused walking through the East Stand carpark and seeing all the empty spaces.

Releasing an American-themed shirt with 'United 93' on the back is insensitive and crass, regardless of timing. But originally planning to launch it on the anniversary of 9/11 is unbelievable in the extreme. Gobsmacked.

It has been years since I read a book that isn't about football. McFadden's writing style is fast-paced, with short, sharp chapters, making her work accessible and easy to consume. Not a masterpiece, but enjoyable enough that I've already started another one of her books—Never Lie.

I remember being a bit unpopular with the rest of my family because I insisted on queueing for Be Here Now while on holiday. The first band I ever loved, and one that still means a lot to me today. An enjoyable, emotional film. It's so nice to see the brothers in a good place.

As much as I enjoy anniversary screenings, they have a tendency to make you feel old. That said, and my aging body aside, watching Terminator 2 for the first time in about 20 years was a blast - it holds up extremely well.

The definition of dominance: we were in complete control throughout and only ever looked like extending our perfect start to the season. 4 games. 20 goals. 4 clean sheets. There are more difficult tests to come, but it's been a brilliant start to the season by anyone's standards.

The Odyssey is one of the most cinematic experiences I've had the pleasure of enjoying in a long time; there were moments when I genuinely felt my heartbeat racing as the incredible sound design flooded the room. I've already booked tickets to see it a second time. Phenomenal. 👏

The suggestion on YF that hundreds, if not more, of people will cancel their season ticket payments as a result of yesterday's news has my head spinning. My fault. I should have known better.

Our friendly against Peterborough United has been brought forward 24 hours and will now take place behind closed doors. Both #OUWFC and Posh won their opening pre-season games 5-0, with victories over Maidenhead United and Sutton Coldfield Town respectively.

Enforcing a digital-only future while simultaneously announcing the closure of a digital storefront is certainly a choice, Sony. If I'm forced to go all-digital to continue a hobby that I've enjoyed for decades, it won't be with PlayStation. L after L. www.tomshardware.com/video-games/...

As an aside, I also want to take a moment to say that whoever cast Mark Wahlberg as Sully in the Uncharted movie doesn't deserve nice things. 😩

Paid £470 (£429 factoring in my Ticket Exchange credit and Ticket Disaster's fee) to renew my Season Ticket. Excellent value, especially when you consider matchday pricing. At the same time, however, £30+ for an adult ticket in the end blocks of SSL seems a bit excessive IMO.

Second viewing of Toy Story 5 - this time in 3D. Unfortunately, I found the implementation of the technology to be pretty underwhelming. I'd recommend watching it in 2D and saving a few quid on the ticket uplift. Good movie; it's going to do monster numbers at the Box Office. 🤩

Well, that was certainly unexpected! Even though I don't think Bloomfield deserved to be sacked, I'm not particularly bothered by his departure; it's the timing that concerns me. Why now? Bizarre. Also... 👇🫣

Happy OUFC Season Ticket Renewal Day to those who celebrate! Mine has been reduced to £470 in SSL, minus the £43 I had in Ticket Credit from making my seat available on the Ticket Exchange, making it £427 in total. Can't grumble at £18.57 per match! 💛

1. If a team felt compelled to cheat against one of the worst teams in the division, it's not likely to have stopped there, is it. 🙄 2. Oxford fans were left wondering what we worked on in training most weeks last season; it seems Saints couldn't figure it out either. 😉

The lump in my throat when the game was paused to remember Amelia was physically painful. I can't even begin to imagine the pain, strength, and courage of those that knew and loved her in the days since her passing. So heartbreaking. RIP Amelia. #ForeverYellow. 💛🕊️

The application and sheer levels of concentration required to turn in that kind of performance, in those conditions against a team who hadn't lost a league match since March 2023, were next level. Immense Oxford, one and all. 👏 #OUFC #OUWFC #COYY 💛💙

If someone scores a goal in a stadium and there's no one there to see it, does it really count? 🫣 Attendances - actual bums on seats - continue to decline, which is a concern at such a pivotal time; but the reality is, it has been an abysmal season.

A top draw for both clubs as it guarantees the end of a 12+ year wait to reach the Fifth Round for one side. We last reached the Fifth Round in 2013; Boro 2009. This was also the last time we played at the KassStad. Potential good omen? We defeated another NE team to do it. COYY!

Zootropolis 2 is brilliant. As a huge fan of Zootropolis, I'm so pleased. It's one of my most-watched 4K UHDs; I expect the same to be true of Zootropolis 2. Such a fun, heart-warming, beautifully animated movie. Loved it.

Sparky on the scoresheet and a second-half goal; and we still haven't lost a Championship match this season when we've been leading at half-time. A massive 3 points. You Yellows!
