Charlatan!

I have got to find the appropriate dressings and sauces for it, but the hat I'm going to have eat because Jordan Henderson can actually still cut it at this level, will be a dainty dish indeed.

And Neall Byrne is the 14th separate goalscorer in all competitions this season in 18 games.

Nine years since these disturbing scenes at Halesowen.

By the letter of the law, that’s probably a red card offence…

The players here are defending on the goaline, so there has been a corner. I think the linesman probably took up that position in those days as primarily his job was to check on out of play decisions. And you cant be offside from corners.

Not at all. I think it's the calfskin vellum that your printers seem to be using that most impressive!

The team @thecitygent.bsky.social has produced something of a triumph for the 250th edition of the multi award winning publication

YouTube video by Marsh Family "Grand Old Duke of York" - parody of English nursery rhyme by the Marsh Family on Prince Andrew

Here's a version of the English nursery rhyme, "The Grand Old Duke of York" 🎶 about the man who says he isn't going to call himself it anymore ... though whether he should be taken at his word ... 🤔

Great flags!

The assessment of the opportunity, the power of the shot so it hit double top with Luke Littler accuracy and that Cleary should strike the ball from the circumference of the centre circle 65 yards out, giving Sam such little chance of saving it, make this the best goal I've seen on our or any ground

Well, Reyes Cleary's goal today was the best I've ever seen live. I'm not exaggerating. Sam Walker really didn't stand much chance.

As exciting a derby game as we've had at Valley Parade for quite some time. And 22228 there to see it.

The Bantams and the Tykes share the spoils.

BBC4 Feedback this week interviewed Chris Mason on the BBC favouring Reform. When his egregious defence included how he strove "to pursue truth without an agenda", I blurted out my cocoa

Well that's worth a follow.

Chester has equalised in injury time against Morecambe in the FA Cup. Fin Shrimpton scored the goal, which has forced the Shrimps into a replay.

On #BBCQT - Fiona Bruce said that the audience and public didn't want to press Reform UK on their dodgy links to Russia.

I disagree.

RT if you agree it's in the public interest for Reform to explain about their links to Russian money and bribery!

They were and could have got more. Michael O'Neil is yer man again. Now it's Germany.
NI must try now to evoke the spirit of the 1984 Euros qualifying when they beat West Germany, who were World Cup runners up, 1 nil at Windsor Park.
And NI won in Germany too, missing out on the finals only on GD.

He'd probably make a better one than Mr Farage, would he not?

Well, I guess the jester sang for the King and Queen In a coat he borrowed from James Dean or was it Harry Worth.

Crackerjack!

That's the thing, Max Power gives us composure and more control of the game. We probably win the game if he plays.
So one thing we need to watch is our discipline. Swan was also fortunate last night. What's good is I didn't think this could stop us winning games, rather than avoiding losing them.

The Damascena Rose Water business I visited in Bulgaria has an interesting take on the Statue of Liberty at its entrance. Look at her devilish tail. $$

Rather a good day for those of us who are of a Claret & Amber and indeed Yorkshire persuasion as I complete my holiday in the southeast Balkans. New advocates found in the Rose Valley, Bulgaria

Just watched a rerun of our game the other night on Bulgarian telly. Here's Andy Cook scoring.

Thank you, Jason. Reading your article whilst on the beach on a windy Black Sea Coast in 🇧🇬

Day 2 in Bulgaria. Bansko haa a charming old town district but nowadays is said to be the best ski resort in Bulgaria. No snow today, but this is a view of the 2nd highest peak in Bulgaria and 3rd in the Balkans, Mount Vihren

My first day in Bulgaria.
These photos show the fountain in front of the Ivan Vazov National Theatre and right the St Aleksandar Nevski Cathedral, both in Sofia. This cathedral is the largest Orthodox cathedral on the Balkans peninsula.

We just scale even greater heights week by week.

If Newcastle doesn't take us seriously, we could cause them serious inconvenience.

Well done, Graham and team.

My pal Skippy I try to provide a light breakfast for him/her in the morning.

Yes, William Joyce.
