Joao Pedro was excellent for #bhafc for most of his time here, scoring some huge goals, but the last few weeks of the season certainly soured a lot of people's perception of him. Red card, training ground bust up, body language that suggested his head was gone

I recently asked #ChatGPT to create images of generic stars of various reality shows. I don't know if it says more about AI or #LoveIsland that its images for that are scarily believable

June 2005: Brighton sign 18yo forward Colin Kazim-Richards for £250k (funded by Coca-Cola) from League Two side Bury June 2025: Brighton sign 18yo forward Charalampos Kostoulas for £30m from Greek champions Olympiacos #BHAFC

Watson, Boscagli, Coppola, Kostoulas I love how much business we're doing early in the summer, getting incomings lined up before preseason training has even begun. Bloom giving Hurzeler the best chance he can at a successful second season #bhafc

It's not often I'm casually browsing in-store, which is perhaps part of the problem, but seeing how little physical media is on offer in the likes of HMV and Game is sad. It's mostly memorabilia tat. A casualty of streaming

Can UEFA make Inter and Barca play a third leg? Remarkable from start to finish, 180+ minutes of football at its best. A great advert for the #championsleague

A point is a fair result overall – VAR right to overturn two penalties while Verbruggen the busier keeper but not tested that much –and yet... Gomez has got to be scoring with that free header. Awful miss #BHAFC

O'Riley hasn't been particularly involved. Wonder if we'd be better off putting Gomez or Ayari on at half time and moving to a more conventional 4-3-3 #BHAFC

Can Harry Howell play up front? The attacking options off the bench today are... limited #bhafc

Even before summer transfers, we have Tzimas, Enciso, Yalcoure, Buonanotte, Ferguson, Osman, Cozier-Duberry, Sima and Sarmiento returning from loan that could be part of the squad. That's definitely big enough and deep enough for the UECL #bhafc

How easy is it to grow a tree from a seed? Could it take hold by simply planting the seed a few inches deep? Always wondered how feasible it would be for guerilla gardeners to secretly plant trees all over the place wherever there's a decent patch of grass and create forests

I've been playing Atomfall and while I'm definitely enjoying it, it feels like the game is trying to put me off with forced rambles between objectives. This sums it up well

Not sure why but I've just remembered an incident on a forum I used all the time as a teen. One user sent a topless selfie to another. He then shared with a few others before it was then posted on the forum for all to see. This sparked a huge debate.

With Bournemouth away at Palace and Fulham playing Chelsea, Brentford is probably a must-win. With six games left, and looking at the run-ins, I suspect 12 points will secure European football #BHAFC

Dreadful performance, as per usual against teams near the bottom of the league. Wasteful in attack, low tempo in possession and weak at the back. Season is fizzling out at an alarming rate – we'll be lucky to nab a Conference League place at this rate #bhafc

It's sad to say but it feels like every week now a starting centrehalf becomes a bigger and bigger priority for the summer. Dunk really looks like he's on a downward trajectory #bhafc

Would love to see Harry Howell make his debut today but ultimately I just want a comfortable win. We so often slip up against teams that, on paper, should be a routine three points. After the disappointment of the last few games, nothing but a good win will do #bhafc

Just realised that, despite not playing an FPS on a keyboard for likely more than decade, my hand instinctively rests in the WSAD position Always good to be prepared I guess in case the text I'm editing turns into a boss battle and I'm firing en-dashes at it

The first episode of #BlackMirror S7, Common People, is a haunting, depressing watch that will stay with me for some time (and we don't even have American-style 'healthcare') So glad it's back

Stupid game, awful week, season very much hanging in the balance. We can kiss goodbye to any Champions League dreams and just hope to sneak into the Europa or the Conference League #bhafc

Sad about Val Kilmer – he’s always be my Batman. Weirdly I'd been planning to rewatch Heat on my commute today anyway. He wasn't out of place next to De Niro and Pacino

It's a shame Sony hasn't ported the Infamous series to PC. Seems like it would be an easy sell, even if it was just Second Son

Just saw the video to Baby by Justin Bieber for the first time in a decade. Had no idea Drake had a cameo but I suppose it makes sense he'd be loitering at a bowling alley with a load of 13-year-olds

Keep seeing people saying we've looked better defensively since Dunk was injured, which is true... ...but that's also the period where we've changed how we defend, having Minteh drop to right back in a 5-4-1 without the ball. Not sure it can be dismissed as a personnel issue #BHAFC

In a season defined by managers refusing to change system regardless of results, Fabian Hurzeler deserves huge credit for making big tactical tweaks after the 7-0 loss against Forest and bouncing back with five straight wins, sacrificing possession for defensive stability #bhafc

Went to bed early because I've been really tired lately. Woke up 20 minutes before my alarm. Thanks, body. Really helpful.
