Tattooed, always seeking caffeine and most often found at the football (LCFC 🦊 and Bills for 🏈), cinema or reading. I love film scores & books/words.

Leicester City 1 Wrexham 1: Shambolic second half sees Foxes throw two points away
The Championship draw specialists versus the plucky, newly promoted darlings Wrexham. Did you see a potential banana skin in the making? Maybe. You probably also aren’t surprised to read that…
