Centre-left, likes going to gigs, cinema and sports. Spend far too much time obsessing about Bristol Rovers, Miami Dolphins, Manic Street Preachers, Paul Heaton and the future of the planet.

Finally, Man City are, or rather should be, proper fucked. Etihad will be a good Gas away day next season.

The US government really need to STFU. It was 5 blokes caught stealing diesel from a farm house, due in no little part to Trump’s war on Iraq pushing up fuel prices over 30% in 6 months.

Oasis tours selling out instantly, a reasonably popular (for now) Labour Prime Minister and it’s all kicking off in Drumcree. Are we back in 1998?

I’m in the South Stand. It’s a pain in the arse now getting up for latecomers, early leavers, the incontinent (including myself), the pie eaters and the early half timers. Doing more of this during the game is just a bigger nausea

Plus I don’t really want to go home every Saturday evening with my clothes smelling like my aftershave is ‘Eau De Thatchers’.

I’ve imbibed several dozen units of alcohol while watching rugby, cricket, NFL, darts and horse racing (they make football fans look like a temperance society) I have no wish to do the same at The Mem. Pre match, half time and one while the traffic clears after the game will do for me.

He campaigned in 2016 to make the country 5% poorer, then buggered off to Monaco in order to not pay towards the upkeep of the country. A true patriot shithead.

Honest Bob won’t be happy until the boats are machine gunned mid channel and the occupants left to drown. What a total shitcunt of a human being he is.

Just a shame it wasn’t at sea at the time, and he would need to rely on the… *checks notes*… RNLI

Absolutely woeful by Celtic so far. Seems that the players can’t raise their game, lacking the effort of Rangers and then some. Something seriously wrong in Paradise I think.

I remember having the European rail timetable book to plot the journey depending on England’s passage. Stayed mostly in youth hostels then. Very different to the UK ones.

For some reason this song came into my head when reading the Ed Sheeran stuff. 40 years old and still as relevant as ever youtube.com/watch?v=8kDv...

Wooden spoon certainties say hello. I’d just like Somerset to win at last. They’re supposed to be Glos’ rivals but I dislike the Pears far more.

Watching Bournemouth v Brentford on MOtD, or as I like to call it, the ‘where were you when you were shit’ Derby. Not that I’m jealous at all…

Well that was a load of old shit. Reality check for Rovers today. HMS Piss the League is back in the harbour thankfully.

Why hasn’t Danny Thomas been nicked on a conspiracy charge yet, or at least inciting racial hatred?

I don’t give a crap whether you are left or right, or what race you ate, what belief system you follow or how you define your sexuality. If you go on a protest looking to conceal your identity or hide who you are then you are a gutless wanker. End of.

On my way to the first Rovers home game, listening to the new Paul Heaton album that came out yesterday. It’s soooo good, and Rianne Downey is such an excellent co singer.

You do know @lbc.co.uk that Ferrari has just platformed Ryan Bridge, unchallenged of course. His organisation has people in custody for a recent murder, another charged with child sex offences . Yet you allowed him to spout his racist crap.

At least top 7 is the least we can expect, automatic is achievable I think. Get a good start and it’ll be 10k plus at the Mem all season.

When will Nick be happy? When we machine gun the boats? When there’s limpet mines all over the Channel? When innocent and desperate people die in their hundreds? That’s ultimately what he wants.

By trying to turn FIFA into a global NFL or MLB, without any input from the true stakeholders of football, Infantino has screwed up massively and risks a split that can never be repaired. He has to go. Fuck Trump, fuck his family, fuck FIFA and anyone rooting for this abomination.

I like Football (soccer) a lot I like the NFL a lot. They are different sports with vastly different histories, morals and rules. One is the truly global game, the other only properly set foot outside the US a couple of decades ago (I was at the first London NFL regular season game)

Anyone else completely unaware until today that the Commonwealth Games begin this evening? I fear that without the BBC coverage it’s going to completely tank. Can’t be arsed with highlights on Channel 5, just not the same.

Gutted about Kevin Keegan. My first football memory is watching the 1974 cup final just before my 7th birthday. Not just my first football hero, but along with Ali my first hero of any kind. RIP King Kev.
