John here, putting the tool into Rentoul.

Dodgy offsides and goalkeeper aside, get Thelin as far away from this club as possible. It’s way past saving now.

Genuinely forgot Jimmy and his clownshoes were playing tonight.

Coming back to @drummondsaberdeen.bsky.social next May. I’ll be warming everyone up beforehand with a 2 hour post punk set. Tickets on sale now! www.drummondsaberdeen.com

Mel - quoted in the manifesto of a fascist mass shooter who murdered seventy seven people, including a large number of teenagers he specifically targeted as children of socialists - says incitement to murder is disqualifying. Every day, these papers are rubbing everyone’s faces in their impunity.

Suzanne Moore in 2020: "As a feminist, I would argue that gender is socially constructed, and it can be reconstructed." And in 2025: "This must be the year Britain finally kills off trans ideology." Transphobia is the engine that pulls the train of fascism.

My final Drummonds playlist of 2025 is now up… open.spotify.com/playlist/4Pf...

RIP Claudia Cardinale. Much like Robert Redford, she was a rare case of a beautiful performer with a filmography full of bangers who did NOT become right-wing later in life. Here she is punching fascist Brigitte Bardot in the face in Les Pétroleuses (1971).

“Heaving”

Time to stick a fork in Thelinball. It’s done. Has been for a while.

Hearts.

We must unthinkingly support an institution which is a direct threat to democracy. That runs PR firm for the far right, which rushes every rambling & incoherent unionist press release to the top story. Who put lives at risk during covid. Which treated brexit like gospel and Scotland as an irritant.

I’m back for the last time in 2025 on Belmont Street…tonight from 11.30… @drummondsaberdeen.bsky.social @doricstudio.bsky.social

Watching One Battle After Another for the third time this week. Simply one of the best films I’ve seen in years.

The Liz Truss Show - Behind the Scenes

Not many Scots can say they’ve scored the winner against them at Wembley. R.I.P John Robertson

This is from a word scramble gameshow where the host of this show gave plenty of clues and the contestant still got the answer wrong.

The next issue of @blackandgoldmag.bsky.social is coming soon, and it will feature my article on a rather memorable (for the wrong reason!) match in Aberdeen’s history at the beginning of 1984.

Merry Christmas from us to you! Thank you for your support of the @afcheritage.bsky.social magazine. Here’s a wee peek of the cover for the next issue, featuring a very wintry scene, as Dick Donald surveys Pittodrie during the Dons’ abandoned fixture against St Johnstone on 3 January 1984.

This is an actual tweet from the DOJ acting as Trump’s personal defense attorney. If they had any evidence that the Trump–Epstein documents were fake, they would've shouted it from the rooftops on day one. But they didn’t. They’re lying liars defending pedophiles.

My mum's flat is now on the market. Shares appreciated. www.aspc.co.uk/search/prope...

We should never have cancelled the Jeremy Kyle show. It kept the kind of people who put flags on lampposts occupied as both viewers and guests

I’m sure Russia knows what we are going to do before the American people since they have so many people serving in the Trump admin sharing intel with them.

It’s about that time for my favourite albums of the year, starting at No12… Wolf Alice - The Clearing

Hard to express how much I love this. Twitter is the Nazi site for Nazis. Delete it, ESPECIALLY if you're a famous person or political leader. Abughazaleh does a great job explaining that it's also TRASH and doesn't even let you reach your audience. Get the hell off.

This week at Drummonds 👇

A review? No tents? No orchestrated performance outside her home with 40 police officers and all the Scottish press?

@yyc1903.bsky.social 35 years ago chum. And a Jim Bett masterclass the day after at Ibrox as well if I recall.

Your team struggling? Can’t buy a win? If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire Aberdeen FC.

BREAKING: At least 16 files from the Epstein release disappeared from DOJ's webpage, including a photo of Trump, with no explanation.

🎁 THREE POINTS WRAPPED UP!!

Blimey.

CALVERRRTTTTT-LEEWWWWIIIIINN!!! YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!

I love Dominic Calvert-Lewin despite what I said about him 6 months ago when we signed him 😬 #LUFC

Redacted.

Nobody works this hard for this long to cover up something this bad unless they are guilty.

Started / Going

A busy night tonight at Drummonds, and it’s free entry all evening. Open till 3am, I’ll be playing all the best in indie & alternative tunes sponsored as always by @doricstudio.bsky.social

The perfect chav trifecta here - Burberry, bouncing on bugle and absolutely bottled the second he senses an early night.

From sponsoring nightclubs to having yer brand on a can of beer. This lad is going places! 👍

Finished 35th out of 36, and below Shelbourne who didn’t score a goal. Well done, lads 👍
