Happy birthday from Germany, Ben. Hope you have a great day!

Some great players there and Jim Smith as the manager. 👍

Excellent. Well done! #kro

Blues vs. Lincoln in the FA Cup.

Not a very exciting draw but at least we are at home and should also be able to rest a few and still get through like we did against Blackpool.

Trevor Francis & Tony Towers celebrate the rarest of beasts; an away win at #VillaPark in the #SecondCity Derby in October 1977, Keith Bertschin bagging the only goal of a customary tough, tight contest.

German Bundesliga team Werder Bremen has quit X and moved its official account to Bluesky.

Here’s some cool stuff you can do with Bluesky It’s not just an Alf pics repository.

I learned some stuff about Bluesky I did not know by reading this.

Maybe worth passing it on to others so we can all start getting the full benefit of the 🦋.

There have been so many arrivals over the past few days, and so many first rate football writers among them, that I don't think it unnecessary to re-post a link to this updated starter pack which has now well over 100 entries (compared to 40 a week ago). go.bsky.app/LkYr5cE
