“Post an album that was important to you when you were 11.”

Great stat

Astor is so underrated.

Saving some for Wednesday

Dagger is a great album, along with The Molotovs, probably the best of 2026 so far.

Nice and early, does anyone know the earliest ever?

It was Bristol Rovers, and being of the City persuasion, it remains their only win ever that I enjoyed.

Don't forget, they won the title the day Arsenal drew at home to Manchester City.

Despite all of this I quite enjoyed this tale, even if the business end of it seemed more than a touch unlikely.

Release day for Ist Ist. Everyone's favourite Mancunian doom merchants. A familiar wall of sound, stomping anthems in what nme would probably describe industrial. It's fucking great, give it a listen.

More minutes for Norgaard, or less rest for Dec/Zubi.

Peak Pulis, Villa should be fucking ashamed.

Once you don't care, you notice that how dull sport is. Even elite sport. If the result isn't important, 95% of it is just dull.

Stroke has robbed me of lots of things, but I have saved hours of not watching shit football, cricket, rugby, nfl and athletics.

This is very true. One of the effects of stroke brain is that I can no longer invest in a side for one game only. Back in the day I could find a way to watch, say, Crewe vs Torquay. But now I don't care, really really really don't care. If it's not Arsenal (occasional Bristol City) I can't watch.

January goes out with a bang. The debut album from The Molotovs is a generational release. The most important UK debut since Up The Bracket, 24 years ago.

Lande Hekt is a bit more twee and introspective, local indie from Bristol.

Both are marvellous.

Having seen Villa twice this season, it's not as if you are Netherlands '74. More like Greece '04, waiting for occasional counter attacks and only attacking in the last 5 minutes of each half. Glad I won't have to watch you a third time.

You seem very rattled yourself, by the way. Obsessed even.

I was at school with him, don't believe a single word he has ever said about his school days.

Oh and if you're asking, he was a cunt then too.

A thoroughly enjoyable read, it is a must for any fan who supports the club win, lose or draw. Probably one to miss for the number of Arsenal fans who regularly shit their pants on social media after any game that is not won. Arsenal are in a good place, Arteta has built a great side. Enjoy the ride

1/2 Second book of 2026 (very apt). A collection of contemporaneous blog posts, so the book stays in real time all the way through. Making it a documentation of the season on the pitch rather than a deep dive of anything behind the scenes. Autumn hope turns to winter despair and spring acceptance.

All of Bristol City's recent good work was in spite of Manning, not because of.

He can't pick a striker so don't let him buy one, unless comes back to Bristol to take Mayulu and Armstrong off our hands, he's welcome to both of them.

If you like playing like an away side at home, then he's yer man.

Liam Manning has arrived, would expect gravitation towards relegation.

Absolutely 100% correct. No foul play on

Getting his almond lunch from the cafe in Bristol, UK

The first season I started to attend football regularly, I saw him score 5 goals in a week in Bristol. Hattrick against City in the league on a Saturday followed by 2 at Rovers in the fa cup the next friday night.

Good move all round, he'll do well in the Dutch league.

Bayern look likely to get the other top 2 spot, so can't be drawn together.

Probably 30 mg/100 ml, but then it's only 8 o'clock.
