David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I'm not really paying attention, but I vaguely get the impression that Doctor Who is now an indie kid in skinny jeans and puffer jacket, with blue hair. I'm there for that. Would have been there for it in 2005 TBH. 050

David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 03/10/2026After thirty years of being aware of how to say "David Bowie", I'm now relentlessly pronouncing Kieron Bowie's name wrongly. Ah well. 000
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Modric still playing, I see. At least Craig Gordon was a goalkeeper... 000

David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I wouldn't have installed the Forest app on my phone if I'd known it was going to bleep at me every fucking time Oliver Glasner blows off. 000
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I guess it's not every team who can beat Spain. 010
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Celtic actually contrived to be worse than last week. How is that possible? 001
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Trying and failing to understand how this Celtic team has got this far into the league season with a 100% record... 000

David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 05/09/2026It's only taken the 48 years to get around to this. You'd think the sods would rustle up a goal at least. 020
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Apparently Ski Sunday was still running. I didn't know it was 1976. 000
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 30/08/2026I'm also wrong, cos I missed Marillion (with and without Fish) and, ironically, Fish, and Baby Queen and more I don't want to think about right now... 110

David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 29/08/2026We also got "for all intents and purposes" at least four times. 030
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 29/08/2026Is Ally McCoist the only man in telly still saying "at this moment in time" every ninety seconds or so? 030
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 13/08/2026I often get "Go Reds" type catcalls walking around London in a Forest top. Of course when I come to Glasgow I get an East Midlands voice complaining as I walk into my hotel, on the basis that he's a Notts County fan. I don't actually think I've met one of those before... 000
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Faintly amused that today's match at Ibrox featured players called things like McGeady, McCrorie and Devlin but they're not necessarily playing for the team one might think they are... 000
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Actually, this one I can get on board with TBH. 010
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Dying to point Jim Smith at this and retire to a safe distance. 130
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 02/08/2026The correct answer is "Systems of Romance, Vienna, Rage In Eden" and I will not be taking questions at this time. 030
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 31/07/2026Six times, she sez. I think there are maybe four films I've seen six times, if you're lucky. None of them is Star Trek. I've not seen any Star Wars or Marvel film so much as one times. I don't think I know what 'Ghibli' means. I wasn't made for these (six) times. 100

David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 28/07/2026In autumn 1979, I saw City of Death. In summer 1980, I saw it again. A couple of weeks later - literally the day I didn't see The Leisure Hive as I was in an outdoor swimming pool in Ayrshire at the time - I randomly saw The Beast Must Die. Twenty years on, I saw it again and clocked Duggan in it. 080
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 28/07/2026If I'm very honest, I barely know who Christopher Nolan is, and I'm at peace with that stance. 001

David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Very amused by John Gordon Sinclair on the radio at the weekend talking about people asking him what he's been up to since Gregory's Girl. He points out "...you're asking me what I've been doing... since *1980*?" 020
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 19/07/2026I enjoy especially that it was won by a team and not a diva purported 'GOAT' supported by ten blokes who are scared of him. Fuck that particular media narrative very much and very specifically. 100
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 19/07/2026I'd like to point out two things: Argentina had fewer shots at goal in the final than Scotland did in any of their games, and: we're still the last team to beat the new world champions in a competitive match (and we fucking deserved it too). 012
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 19/07/2026I really didn't hate that. Enjoyed watching a team trying to cheat it from second one getting it shoved right up them. 140
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 19/07/2026I really hate that in the country that invented rock and roll, they're punctuating extended breaks by playing The Final Countdown. 010

David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 16/07/2026A propos of nothing obviously, I would just like to re-emphasise that "not giving a shit about coming third" speaks huge and weighty volumes about why everybody hates you. Ooh. Bit of a giveaway. 241

David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 12/07/2026Ten years ago that pub was closed and essentially a fire-avoidant building site. Right now, it is of no more use to me than it was then. 041
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 12/07/2026I walked into the pub over the way from me about ten minutes ago - doors wide open - and they said "sorry, the bar's closed". I literally stared at the guy for five full seconds and said "...at twenty to ten?". As I left, I politely asked: "Why are you even here?". I leave that question hanging.wide.open 031
David Darlington (Anderson/Oakes) @deejsaint.bsky.social · 12/07/2026Has anyone ever devised a word for "someone who vanished from your life ages seven because they moved half a mile across town (and thence to a different primary school) but who you met again aged 11-12 when you started secondary school"? Clinton Cards may have missed a trick. 010
