It's hard to overstate the sheer dullness of Paul Robinson.

I can't recall being so pleased for a player. Utterly deserved recognition for his all round game. (I'm still seething at Ramsay's snubbing of Howard Kendall & a paltry cap for Harvey, so this feels right)

BBC radio commentary on the Arse Everton game is shamelessy (or shamefully) partisan for the gooners.

Alan Whittle (whose contributions brought the title safely home in 69/70) for Everton, scoring against Forest (I think). Bought this to help rekindle memories of these times for a friend now afflicted by dementia.

Johnson's shape shifting would make a contortionist proud. Isn't an illegal war the time for a vote of no confidence in his leadership?

Alistair Horne's magisterial account of this in The Price of Glory: Verdun (1962) is gripping.

It's been solely about medal returns for ages & it's a thin metric, just to give the tiresome cheerleaders from the BBC something to wax about over-enthusiastically. The leadership of these organisations rarely changes too. Virtual sinecures.

Bradshaw rightly highlights Duvall's criminally under-appreciated The Apostle, in this warm appreciation of his work. www.theguardian.com/film/2026/fe...

Robert Duvall was a vigorous and subtle actor who always performed with passion and conviction
From his steely self-effacing consigliere in The Godfather to his surf-crazed Wagner enthusiast in Apocalypse Now, just to see him on screen made me smile

So it is. Another Messiah though not as miserabilist as Corbyn (that would be nigh on impossible). A great deal more media savvy too.
