    RIP Bill Lyons (@Bill, previously @de niro) update re funeral pg 51/JustGiving link p52

    Reactivated a decades-old photobucket account to find these - cannot remember the context. But of course, the Faroe Islands trawler is City folklore

    RIP Bill Lyons (@Bill, previously @de niro) update re funeral pg 51/JustGiving link p52

    Bill was one of the few people that took me under his wing when I was a snot-nosed little shit coming over from Australia for a few games in 2007. Always good for a pint and a yarn. He's one of a few that I will never forget the hospitality that he showed, and many more messages from here speak...

    Urawa Red Diamonds (N) | CWC Semi-Final | Pre-Match Thread

    If anyone is thinking about this - might organise a cheap (well, relatively speaking) piss-up in Qatar a couple of days before if any one is transiting through Doha.

    City’s New Kits

    How you fuck up cream and maroon I have no idea. Actually yes I do: introduce bright orange. So fucking stupid. If the badges/sponsor was maroon it'd be fine

    The Bluemoon Song Cup 2023

    Fair play for consistently picking out such random, yet quality matchups

    Running thread

    Wouldn't say "properly" got into it last year because I'm way too inconsistent, but I usually manage to punch out 7 miles twice a week. I'm never going to break any land speed records (under 90 minutes) but it's long enough to make me feel like I've earned it - and more importantly I guess it's...

    The Bluemoon Song Cup 2023

    Quite possibly the finest Aussie exports ever (ok we kind of pinched them from New Zealand, but when has that ever stopped us) One of the most perfect songs ever written, the bridge a particular highlight

    Phone addiction

    Yeah but you're not carrying around a newspaper that constantly updates every ten seconds and you spend up to 6 hours a day flicking the pages across I feel sorry for kids growing up in this era, just being manipulated into spending as much time as possible starting at a screen

    This rain has actually set it up for some nice Bazball action England bat for almost all of tomorrow, declare 6 overs before stumps and set say 320, that's a tantalising target

    Peter Drury replaces Martin Tyler on Sky Sports

    Peter Drury is a brilliant commentator, and has the uncanny ability to really nail the big moments. He was on the World Feed for the Aguero goal and nailed a similarly spine-tingling call for that one. His commentary for the 2010 World Cup opening goal is instantly iconic. The problem with...

    Saudi Sovereign fund

    Al Hilal also regularly get 60k plus at big Cup and Champions League games. And it means nothing in the scheme of things, but they have 2/3rds of the twitter followers we have. I don't watch a lot of Saudi football week-in week-out, but these are BIG clubs man, and with history. This isn't a...

    Autophagy (and fasting).

    I live in a muslim country that observes ramadan once a year and it kind of forces you to do something similar to this, and was surprised how easy it was. You couldn't eat anything at the office, but you'd at least go somewhere quiet to have a drink. And no restaurants or malls would open until...

    Kyle Walker

    It's the reason that so few teams go 3 in a row in the league, or back-to-back in the Champions League. The mental toll to back up and climb the mountain again is so tough

    Peter Drury replaces Martin Tyler on Sky Sports

    Thanks for Aguerooooooo, but he'd dropped off massively over the last few seasons. Guy was comatose for just about every goal he called - for any team - over the past 5 years. And FWIW Drury is contracted with NBC in the US, he's not on the World Feed commentary. Would be interesting to see if...
