Missed this yesterday, but picked it up from this morning's @boakandbailey.bsky.social roundup - cracking bit of writing, well worth a read.

Love that Robert Plant's new project is him backed by 4 guys who look like Robert Plant 😁 #laterjools #joolsholland

One last pint before I head to the airport, for anyone going through a tough time. Matt Uggla, Josh Stones, all of Rochdale (not just football related tbf), Chesterfield's ground staff, Cav Miley, Nathan Ralph - thoughts are with you lads #oafc

Has anyone else scheduled a 300-mile house move for playoff final weekend? Just me? Magic...#oafc

How is a team the size of Ferrari so comically, consistently shit at making basic strategic calls?? πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ #MiamiGP #F1

Superb. I don't often get emotionally caught up in golf, but so chuffed McIlroy has finally done it (and after throwing it away 2 or 3 times tonight!) #Masters

The #Masters proper hates McIlroy, doesn't it?

Decent racing so far for #GrandSlamTrack, just a shame it's being played behind closed doors.

Going to pick myself a nice beer and settle in with this from @katiematherkm.bsky.social and @pelliclemag.com as soon as the rugby finishes later!

Obviously don't do this. It would be an enormous waste of everyone's time.

Superb performance. The most comfortable 1-0 I can remember. Raglan and Leake immense at the back, Caprice turned into prime Usain Bolt, Pett and Rossiter looking after the ball, Waters grafting his arse off and Fondop winning everything. #oafc

Lundstram doing well further forward, but I think I'd drop him deeper and get Kay on for Gardner. Stones needs to chill as well, something seems to have wound him up #oafc

Loved #Hootenanny as ever, think that's the first time I've ever seen Jools as messy as his guests - he had no clue what was going on by the end of that recording (and the show was all the more authentic for it!)

I am delighted that Jim Ratcliffe has realised that United's problems are all caused by office staff being allowed to work from home, and stewards being paid too much - sure things will turn around quickly now that's all been sorted.

Frank Warren being baffled by the fact that a bloke who was 3 stone overweight ended up being gassed for the 2nd half of the fight is hilarious #UsykFury2

Yep, I had it comfortable but didn't expect it to be unanimous. Frank Warren suddenly caring about accurate judging is hilarious

Wow! I had Usyk (the commentary on TNT was mad) but surprised the judges all gave that by 4 points #UsykFury2

Yeah, one of the reasons I think the York game is massive - make it clear we're in the mix when trying to extend/attract replacements. Hoping the talk from Wigan about him challenging there is just to drive up his value/attract offers from league clubs #oafc

That's why we don't overreact anymore - we're a completely different animal this year! Beat Braintree and York, and I'll be convinced this is our season #oafc

TEES!

We’ve had a little restock of β€˜Dogs of the Free Trade’ T-shirts and our best selling β€˜Pub’ tee in a new autumnal colour.

There’s also a restock of β€˜Dogs’ Totes.

We’re working on more stock of favourite designs, and there’s still a few items reduced on the shop.
