Fulham usually prove hard work for us for some reason. They also put up a righteous fight at the Tarquins, so not expecting a pushover but we should still win. Be nice to see Doku get some playing time.

My favourites - Capetown, Helsinki, Windhoek, Savannah, ReykjavIk, Gaborone. Special mention for Pointe Noire because that’s where I was when I found out about the takeover. The worst - Lome, Kinshasa and Bangui - all wildly unsafe, Chittagong in Bangladesh was the dirtiest, New York and Paris...

The Marsden/Moody/Murray/Lord & Paice iteration of Whitesnake were the pinnacle of hard rock/blues. RIP Bernie.

Didn't one of them roll out the 'we can go back to imperial measures now' chestnut recently, to the acclaim of absolutely no-one?

As someone who worked in central Africa for a fair while, much of this is post-colonial. We (the UK) generally got out and fucked off sharpish (with the exception of Kenya and Zimbabwe) and as a result, many of our former colonies have been able to forge their own paths politically and...

A win playing mostly in 2nd gear, that we'd have won more easily if we'd scored the penalty and against a team that only attempted to play something that looked a bit like football in the last 15 minutes. I don't blame them for that, they're shit so the WWE stuff was the only way they could...

Turned on to see a football match, so why is one team playing rugby league?

Two tonight - Both LA films, both private eye films, both brilliant. Carl Franklin's Devil in a Blue Dress (1995) and Shane Black's The Nice Guys (2016). The former is a great throwback to the Noir movies of the 40's, the latter a genuinely funny Noir set in the late 70s.

It's To Live and Die in LA. Vanishing Point is great too, but it's basically the whole movie.

Everyone was in behind Lauren Charvet, from what I remember.

That's a demented reaction to a pre-season kickabout from the Tarqs. I guess we still live in their nightmares.

Watching City under Pearce was like watching football with all the joy stripped out of it, under Ball it was like watching football with all the intelligence removed and under Clark like watching a team that had had its sanity stripped away. They were all an endurance test, but for different...

Second this. I only spent a few days in Candolim but it was great. Bonus for the food, which is the best we ate out there. Kerala was brutally hot and humid and we were working in the tropical forests in the foothills of the Western Ghats in August so it was wet and leech-ridden. The coast is...

I worked for a bit in India. Where abouts are you thinking of going?

At the very least, showing a bit of interest in Sane might get the German rags to shut the fuck up about our players in the press.

I’m still angry about the Walsh-Creaney thing.

They also come in a dull green colour and it was one of those that tagged me. It was largely my own fault, they’re not generally considered to be life-threateningly venomous, but they are bad-tempered and I wasn’t being careful enough. The swelling went down on its own once I got to Nairobi but...

What's the fuck does 'on the exit ramp' mean - is he coming to Arse by cross channel ferry?
