Who else wants to score against Spurs this week by shooting from just outside the box? How has Frank not made closing that down a priority after last Sunday and PSG? #COYS

Radiohead, O2, 25/11/25 - The last post Weird Fishes / Arpeggi Fingers crossed this run of European residencies will kickstart their alchemy to create something new. A feeling though that this is a lap of honour they’re on. Victorious swan song. 2026 I suspect will hold the answer #Radiohead #O2

Radiohead - Separator, O2 25/11/25 They have always sung to my very soul, burrowed deep into the marrow of my bones. For 30 years now their music has soared and connected with me like no other band ever has. #Radiohead #O2 #Separator #London

Sit Down. Stand Up. A song title that perfectly encapsulates my evening sitting in an aisle seat. Every song people were up to either the bar or toilet. Couldn’t spoil what was an incredible evening last night in the O2 #Radiohead #O2 #SitDownStandUp #London

A visit to the Churchill War Rooms #Churchill #WinstonChurchill #Winston #WarRooms #ChurchillWarRooms #London

Radiohead at the O2 25/11/25 The best to ever do it. “Music… bloody hell!” (To paraphrase a 90’s behemoth of another sphere). Last night was a privilege, the set phenomenal. An experience I will never forget. This is Like Spinning Plates off Amnesiac, 2001 #Radiohead #O2 #London

“This is really happening…” #Radiohead #O2

So. Much. Death #Booksky #FirstWorldWar #WWI #Europe #MaxHastings

Has “To dare is to do” ever been so redundant a club motto as under this manager? The team’s body of work in these 12 league games to date is strong evidence for the the prosecution #COYS #THFC #AudereestFacere

The rhythm section really was what made The Stone Roses great. Mani’s baselines are some of the most recognisable of the era that still drive those anthems 30+ years on: Fools Gold, I Am The Resurrection, She Bangs The Drums, I Wanna Be Adored to name a few. RIP Mani #TheStoneRoses #Mani #RIP

There was a lot of noise around this when it was released a couple of months ago. It was totally justified, it’s superb. A gripping true story that moves your emotions everywhere: despair, joy, disgust, confusion, sadness, hope. @jonathanfreedland.bsky.social‘s book is my book of the year #Booksky

Trigger Point: I can’t be the only one praying Lana does us all a favour and cuts the wrong wire? #TriggerPoint #ITVX

There has never been another act like The KLF - there never could be! This is a fantastic episode. Time to dig out my copy of the Pure Trance mix of What Time Is Love #TheKLF #The90s

I don’t really get excited about anniversary editions of albums where there’s demo after demo filling up the tracklist. However the Love Kraft 20 years reissue from Super Furry Animals is a joy. Lazer Beam b-side Colonise The Moon is bliss (No Sympathy reworked?) #SuperFurryAnimals #SFA #LoveKraft

Part architectural history and very much part social history, naturally with politics throughout, this is an excellent study of high-rise living in Britain since the Second World War by @holsmith.bsky.social #Booksky #Highrise

A vivid first hand account of the months leading up to July 1st 1916, the Battle of the Somme. The day the diarist, Captain Charlie May was killed. The impending doom of those last few days, the outcome known to the reader, are very poignant as well as the fate of those mentioned throughout #Booksky

A deeply impressive piece of work from @jasonburke2.bsky.social. Such a good read #Booksky

With the caveat that there are two very creative players absent through long term injuries; this Spurs side is bereft of any craft, guile and style. It’s very difficult to pin point exactly how they set up and set out to take the game to the opposition. A difficult watch #COYS

Shown very little in the final third bar Kudus’s delivery for the goal. Need to find a way to get Simons in the game #COYS

know you have to have an unwavering belief in your abilities to be a manager at the highest level. But sometimes you’ve got to recognise when a job is not a good fit and pass on it. Hindsight maybe, but Big Ange never looked like the right man to follow Nuno at Forest, mate. Feel for him #COYS

When Qirat won the Group 1 Sussex Stakes at Goodwood it had never been seen before in a Grp 1 - 150/1. Powerful Glory in the Grp 1 Qipco Champion Sprint: “hold my beer” - 200/1 !!! @ascotracecourse.bsky.social #Horseracing #ChampionsDay #QIPCOBritishChampionsDay

Looking forward to watching Champions Day this afternoon. The Champions Stakes has everything you would ask for - the best horse in Britain, in Ireland and in France clashing. The star is in the QEII though with the return of Field Of Gold #Horseracing #QIPCOBritishChampionsDay #ChampionsDay

By now you know what you’re going to get. And if you liked the first four books, you’ll like this one #Booksky

@thetwomatts.bsky.social I always enjoy the podcast but thought Tuesday’s was exceptional.

I’ve dipped in and out of Manic Street Preachers since 92. More out than in but when I’ve connected with them, I’ve loved them. This is an impressive piece of work from @keithcameron2.bsky.social telling the stories behind 168 MSP songs with input from Wire & Bradfield #Booksky #ManicStreetPreachers

Good to see Jonathan Ross channeling his inner Nicky Wire with his get-up in this Trojan horse challenge #Traitors #CelebrityTraitors #ManicStreetPreachers

This episode is a great listen #Rave #90’s

Looks a beautiful day in Paris at Longchamp. Kalpana ew for me in the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe #QPAT #Horseracing #Paris

@footballcliches.bsky.social Goalhanger’s Tabby Syrett has to be a Cliches listener. 16mins 55s into her discussion with Dominic Sandbrook on TRIH bonus episode about L’étranger by Albert Camus she gives the game away

Does everyone in Northern Ireland only call the police “peelers”? No “fuzz”, “cops”, “5-0”, “po-leese”, “pigs”, “plod”, “old bill”, “polis”, “rozzers”? #BlueLights

An epic, towering story of Calcutta (Kolkata) in the 1940’s and the Second World War. Panoramic and cinematic the novel took Ruchir Joshi 25 years to write. Took me 2 weeks to read (900 pages) I was thoroughly absorbed #Booksky #GreatEasternHotel

Stunning finish, Palhinha #COYS

Surely even the most ardent believers in the “Dr Tottenham” principle didn’t see this continuing tonight? #COYS

Sleeper at Tramshed in Cardiff on the Inbetweener tour celebrating 30 years. They were brilliant. Louise has always been a magnificent front woman and she was so engaging last night whilst she and the band, who sounded superb, put on an such an entertaining show #Sleeper #Cardiff #Inbetweener

Looking at the state of the UK this century through the lens of football. Especially reading again about the Covid lockdowns I’m sure I’ve got PTSD. I’m not talking vet-returns-from-Nam type PTSD but that time definitely left its mark. Anyway, great book #Booksky #EPL #Football #PremierLeague

Where was the West Ham marking at that corner? Who cares? #COYS

Listen, fair play … #Radiohead

I loved how @ronanmcgreevy.bsky.social starts his book with the assassination itself and then goes back to set the context and work his way through to 22nd June 1922. Before tackling the fallout and various theories on the decision to ultimately kill Henry Wilson. It’s a great book #Booksky

What a film that is, by the way. Three hours well spent #TheBrutalist

The Red Brigades in the ‘70’s & ‘80’s brutally terrorised Italian industry and the state, the oppressors of the workers they claimed to represent. They were, at times, slapdash, hypocritical and ruthless for ruthlessness sake. @footymac.bsky.social forensic study captures this time superbly #Booksky

A few highlights from today’s visit to This Is What You Get at the @ashmoleanmuseum.bsky.social in Oxford. An exhibition of the collaborations of @stanleydonwood.bsky.social and @thomyorke.wastehq.social over the last 30 years on the artwork for Radiohead & The Smile. So great! #Radiohead

An account of the work done by Varian Fry and his brave colleagues working the south of France to evacuate exiled cultural Germans, often Jewish, who were wanted by the Gestapo following the Nazi’s lightening invasion of France. It’s non-fiction that reads like a thriller novel. Frightening #Booksky

First World War spy novel based around a true case of the time for the nascent MI6. I devoured it #Booksky

Once the gap opened stand rail side, Buick delivered. Ethical Diamond ran out a very good winner. Blindingly obvious statement- Willie Mullins is the master! Melbourne next I’d imagine #EborFestival #York #Horseracing

Ethical Diamond backed into favourite now at the off #EborFestival #York #Horseracing

Saturday this season is bringing the joy for Spurs fans. If we could just forget what happens on the days in between … #COYS

Will it be the same pain today as a year ago? Personally I prefer the stablemate Ethical Diamond but the massive caveat is will he settle? He looked so good at Royal Ascot over 1m 4f but an extra couple of furlongs will find him out if he pulls too hard early again #EborFestival #York #Horseracing

A balanced biography of the imperial hero #Booksky

Is there another club with a roll call of high profile failed attempted signings longer than Spurs’s under Levy? #COYS

So good! The first 4 eps: Oasis / Trainspotting / Nirvana / George Michael captured the nostalgia but also the excitement of the monumental decade. Looking forward to arriving at my 90’s - rave, clubbing, superstar DJ’s and British electronic music: Underworld, Leftfield, Chems Prodigy exploding
