Lush were a class act when they started out on 4AD. Miki Berenyi’s memoir was equally defiant and heartbreaking. Such a wonderful read. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fECE...

Serious and rightful recognition for Elanga recently. If he can maintain consistency he’s undoubtedly one of the Premier league’s most devastating players. #nffc

Out of Time feels like an underrated REM album, perhaps living in the shadow of Automatic which came quite quickly on its heels. It’s sounding stunning on this crisp and sunny north London morning.

MGW is Forest through and through. We must never forget though that it was Coops who was absolutely insistent that a team could and should be built around him. Without his resolve on this we wouldn’t be where we are #nffc

Some serious over-hyping of Konstas currently. Seems a little premature! Hopefully though he’ll be around in 10 months or so to take guard to one of Wood or Archer in Perth #cricket

What I loved about the first goal yesterday was Wood’s self-belief in lobbing the keeper. Had he got it wrong and Pickford caught it comfortably he would have looked a numpty. But he trusted himself. Amazing mindset #nffc

There is nothing, genuinely nothing, more satisfying than a thrilling test match finale. SA putting on an unbeaten 50 partnership for the 9th wicket to scrape past Pakistan definitely falls into that bracket. Scenes. #cricket

Manic Street Preachers are just as vital and exciting now as when they started out, especially live. When Generation Terrorists came out in 1992 it screamed flash in the pan. Yet, here they still are, nearly 33 years later #musicsky

I can’t get Kill Your Television by Ned’s Atomic Dustin out of my head. Think it must be a subconscious reaction to the amount of dross I’ve watched on the telly this last week. Oh, and they don’t do band names like they used to! #musicsky

I’ve become so completely one-eyed about what’s going on at Forest to the extent that I think it would be unfathomable for any player to leave us. Need to get a grip. #nffc

Hollywood strikes me as pretty bland these days which makes Kieran Culkin a much more appealing and interesting actor. You sense that his Succession character is not a million miles from his own.

Compared to the likes of Manchester, Liverpool and Sheffield it’s weird that Nottingham has produced so few great bands. Unless I’m missing any Sleaford Mods and especially Tindersticks are the exception.
