For some reason I keep getting stymied by the age verification thing, sorry. You can find me on Instagram and DM me there (or LinkedIn if you’re on there). Happy to chat. 👍

Limited experience, admittedly (and only in Wales), but the point you make rings true about government support for music. Weird thing is that the success stories originate from the grassroots, not from costly large-scale projects.

Gets my vote for Wales’ most underrated player in the current squad. 🙌

We’d clearly ran out of headline-writing energy by that point in the week… 🙄

To think we were actually paid a grown-up wage to do such silly things…

This was a controversial issue in house. NME staff were on strike. Danny Kelly (editor) and Alan Lewis (publisher) put it together. We thought the subsequent appointment of Steve Sutherland as editor after Danny left was to break up the editorial team and make sure it wouldn’t happen again.

To be fair, he took Carre down well, which is more than most teams manage.

Almost as good as the thought of being in an ‘LUFC WhatsApp group for donkeys’. 😉

Belgium badge for me, if you get rid of the daft crown and the Royal FA nonsense.

Steady on there… Been banging on about Wilson to my supremely tolerant LUFC WhatsApp group for donkeys. 🤞 he stays fit and Farke doesn’t drive the fans mad by starting Aaronson ahead of him. #jaydasilvanext

From the other side of the fence, I always marvel at the guts musicians show when they release new music, often with no idea what people will make of it.

No messing about from Emma Hayes, calling it “a victory for immigration.”

You’re very welcome. Remember writing the review. Had to delve into the back issues library for research, as nobody had a clue who he was (it didn’t help much tbh).

As a one-club city, the football club has a lot of power. This lot seem to understand that. Obviously, commerce plays a huge part in it all of it, but I’m cautiously hopeful this is part of a genuine regeneration project, rather than a cynical land grab. We’ll see…

Strangely the mag is in immaculate condition. A copy of the short-lived Raw mag came with it. The publishing companies went crazy with these promos, until they realised sales tanked if there wasn’t a freebie attached…

Stuff you find in boxes #3. A 1995 edition of Select magazine, with 31 year-old snacks still intact (although the Tango seems to have evaporated…). May be of interest to @nndroid.bsky.social

Stuff you find in boxes #2. A Kappa shirt signed by the Wales football team who played in the 0-1 win away to Qatar. Mark Hughes’ first match as manager and John Robinson scored the goal (had to look that bit up).

Stuff you find in boxes #1. This painful memento from one of the darkest days in Welsh football 50 years ago. Note ticket cost…

A must-watch for any Welsh rugby fan... Hang on, make that anybody who feels that the administrators running their clubs/unions/companies Just Don’t Get It.

Superb. Plus a weekend in Montpellier is some reward for fans who’ve more than earned it.

Won’t ever be able to watch the replay without thinking: ‘he’ll definitely score this time…’.

Love Foxy when he’s in controlled fury mode. Distinct ‘honestly mate, you’d be best off walking away now…’ nightclub doorman vibes.

Taking into consideration my massive 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 bias, I’ve been advocating this since May. He’s shouldered the creative responsibility for Wales since Bale retired. Was under the impression he’d signed a new contract over the summer and gave up on boring anyone within earshot about it.

Thanks for your consistent and informed coverage of Welsh politics. We shouldn’t really have to be grateful, but we are…
