Agree. I think its popularity lies in its accessibility.

Not bad mate and you?

The Lambshank Redemption

Probably been done already!

Maccabi Tel Aviv’s derby against Hapoel cancelled tonight in Israel’s league after riots in & around the stadium, leading to injuries.

Yeah, maybe the safety committee and West Midlands Police got it right?

A tweet from Sky News reading 'Aston Villa fan Andrew Fox says he has received online abuse and even death threats following the decision to ban Maccabi Tel Aviv fans from the match in Birmingham.' A follow up tweet says 'This is a correction of a previous post that incorrectly identified Mr Fox as Jewish'.

A page from the Henry Jackson Society website for Andrew Fox, Research Fellow, which says he joined HJS in 2014 and that 'Andrew specialises in Defence, the Middle East, and disinformation'.

Sky News is platforming a guy who says he's from a Jewish Aston Villa supporters group, but it turns out that the guy a) isn't Jewish, b) the group doesn't exist, and c) he works for the right wing Henry Jackson Society, whose website says he 'specialises in disinformation'. Well, quite.

All Saints Church, Four Oaks War Memorial Sutton Coldfield has an interesting history well documented by a collection of primary sources housed in Sutton Coldfield Library.

Further sorrow was to come for the Grove family. Percy’s sister Emily married Russell Sandon Turner in June 1917. He was later killed in action in October 1917 with the 5th RWR.

Huge congratulations to @kamalimelbourne.bsky.social on holding a firm line in such a calm and professional way, faced with such utterly offensive nonsense. ~AA

Don't forget that 41 Tory MPs in the last government took Russian donations. That might account for media reticence to report on the Nathan Gill case.

Hahahahahahahaha

Wasn’t she also ennobled?

I thought Rogers was better today.
I agree about Pau but I would like him to be stronger and harder to knock off the ball when defending. Digne looked much better with Pau than Mings.

Who would have thought.

Please repost if you agree that British TV News is betraying our democracy by giving Farage what looks like more coverage than all the other opposition parties combined.

Weren’t 9 of the starting 11 (or something like that) yesterday Gerrard era players? I’d like to think we’d moved on a bit more from that personnel wise.

My mate went to school in Willenhall with a girl called Tanya Hide. Imagine saying that in a Black Country accent.

Possibly the best TV series ever.

We Can Make an Impact. Urge Nigel Farage to Release His Tax Returns

There is a petition demanding that Farage publish his personal tax return. It is now at 31,000. Spread this far and wide. As someone that is running to be PM his finances should be 100% transparent or resign. What has he got to hide? Just asking questions.

Calling Lee Hendrie a Villa legend is a bit of a stretch.
