Does the loser get two tea towels?

That striker does not look inspiring. A right journeyman. But he could prove me wrong.

Woken up all anxious about Rovers today.

Ruth's top tip for today - Watch Vergara's equaliser just now for Napoli. That turn is delicious ❀️⚽️

πŸ’™ Blue Monday, or just another Monday?

Today is β€œBlue Monday”, known as the β€˜most depressing day of the year’. In reality, it’s just another Monday and one less one until the evenings get lighter, the weather gets warmer and the cricket season starts. β˜€οΈπŸ

I admittedly don't post a lot. I keep meaning to post more as this site can be too quiet.

I remember winning at Brentford in about 2009 and, after the game, some of their fans proclaiming us to be on the up while they were going nowhere.

Rovers finally got a point last night and I couldn't care less. Am angry at those players and grieving the loss of DC. I had planned on getting a ticket for Barrow Away but, at this point, I don't want to make the effort for those players.

It's how I feel. Did Crewe in 95 but I'd been planning to do Barrow. As it stands, I'm not bothering. Too angry at those players.

I'm upset about DC. Furious at the players. A horrible day.

No, I didn't go today.

I love sitting here by myself with just the Christmas lights on, watching the Ashes. 3.30 alarm but I love it ❀️🏏

I can't do non-league again. I just can't.

Right then...alarm set for 4.15. Target is to be showered and ready for the day in time for the afternoon session at 5.10. Which is precisely the time by which all my high hopes for England will be over.

I think I'm most excited about having a beer that fills up from the bottom. Like something out of The Jetsons.

I'm going to Spurs v Chelsea tomorrow and I am very excited for what feels like the Holy Grail of ground ticks πŸ˜€

An important piece to write though. Much love ❀️

If it still hurts a lot, it probably is. Ouch!

Someone reckons a lot of the new electric buses have neon lights, different colours. It's only that one I've noticed though.

What's with this weird dark red lighting on the bus? Was like it yesterday too. Maybe because it's still dark out?

Aw, I was at that too.

Yyyyyeeeeeessssss! I don't know how I did it in that chaotic ticket scrum but I got myself a Kraftwerk ticket!!!!!!!

When I saw them in 2017, they were probably the greatest gig I'd ever seen.

It's going to be amazing.

I'm trying for the Beacon this morning. In 2017, they were outstanding.
