Evening all, I'm off to Santiago, Chile in late August for the next same-city derby for the #DividedCities series and looking for local contributors, if anyone has contacts they are willing to share? Divided Cities 2 should be with you soon! 📚 #colocolo #UdeChile

Another fascinating weekend of same-city derbies. Almost a year since attending the Zürich Derby for Divided Cities 2. Need to get to a few of these in the future.

Some notable same-city derbies tomorrow. FA Cup draw got in the way of me attending Vienna. Bruges from May 2024 in up coming Divided Cities 2. And I just want to get back to Argentina.

You're going to a match in minus temperatures to watch 14th in table versus bottom. Both averaging one goal per game. And it maybe doesn't sound too appealing. Until its the Hamburg Derby, being played in the Bundesliga for second time since 2010/11. And at the more intimate home of St Pauli 😍

Wish I'd picked Expected Goals by @rorysmith.bsky.social off the book shelf long before now. However, holiday allowed a cover-to-cover read. Amazing book and so many similarities from nearly 2 decades in data insights at universities. That you'd assume wouldn't have such adoption challenges.

Think I'm on worst train possible to Tottenham (A). Packed. Seat next to me has had a person with a cat for last hour or so (I'm allergic and now struggling to breathe through nose) and now someone else is sat across the from me watching videos in an Asian language at full blast!

Good start to the Tunis Derby. Club Africain appears to have not processed ticket payment despite it still showing on my orders. Turkish Airlines flight brought forward an hour, leaving a little under 2 hours from train arrival. Train cancelled whilst on it, so now have 1.5 hours until take off 🤦🏻‍♂️

Democracy cannot survive if people like Jenrick, who is prepared to lie continually and without compunction, can prosper. Football in the 80s was frequently violent and, especially in the first part of the decade, awash with racism. These were not halcyon days, especially for non-white Britons.

Something has fundamentally changed in Birmingham. And Britain, too, has changed with it.

Consider football: the rough and tumble of our national game is nothing new for the West Midlands. Growing up in the eighties, my Dad took me to more than a few matches at Villa Park in the away end. The language, chants, and antics were - at times - less than well-mannered.

But it was largely good-natured fun. Where there was violence, the police put a quick but firm end to it. Such was the rhythm of British life. The same men and women worked together all week, turning up and supporting different teams on a Saturday.

Hold back at Galatasaray last night allowed me to try to check in to flight... and realise I was going to the wrong airport believing online check-in was unavailable! Sometimes, you can have too much travel. However, on to Tirana!

4.20am. Trying to negotiate an early check-in/extra night. Thought it would be longer through security, etc and we'd be having a 6am breakfast in a cafe or similar

Has felt like a particularly long international break, so it's good to have three games in 7 days. Particularly when one is the League Cup and LFC should utilise more of the squad
