RIP Brian Wilson - saw him at my first ever Glastonbury - feared the worst when he was helped slowly to his seat behind the piano by two stagehands. The lights turned up and what followed was simply astonishing. As for Pet Sounds - about as good as it gets as an album.

West Ham-Forest for me today.

Justice done there - never a penalty.

Decent final balls from either side very much not in evidence at the Stadium of Light this evening.

I am mate, but we’re in the paddock as SAR was sold out by the time I realised the game was on. What a pro I am!

I’m evicting Acerbi from the centre-halves union - that was a ridiculous finish. No right to be doing that

About to be on @BBCLondonSport discussing QPR.

I’ll fight anyone with fluffy pillows who says Getting away with it by Electronic is not a great track. You R’ss!

Hell of a way to win a game - brilliant strike from Andersen - more than deserved too. You R’ss!

Ferdinand and Savage making TNT Sport sound like Sky’s old Fan commentary guff from back in the day.

Fair play Spurs probably the most nerve-shredding game I’ve seen for ages and I’ve absolutely no skin in the game apart from a liking for Ange.

Enjoying the cultural delights of lovely Fuerteventura πŸ˜ƒ - here’s to 50 points - an achievement that shouldn’t be dismissed given the difficulties QPR have faced with ridiculous injuries this season.

Wasn’t there mate as flying out on hols this morning. Concussion protocol is the only reason I can think of.

#QPR have scored 8 goals via teenagers this season (all competitions), which is as many as they’d scored between the 2009-10 and 2023-24 seasons combined (8).

Indeed. Nice chunky compo clause hopefully helps.

Huge win that. Proper managers find a way in adversity and QPR have one.

Wow, Was never got the fuss over Rice during his West Ham days, but have to hold my hands up and say he sure as hell has become that player now.

Hell of a free-kick that - fair play Declan Rice.
