My dad had a pee in the next ‘stall’ to Mick Jagger at a cricket test match at Trent Bridge in Nottingham

Well, England won a #cricket match in Australia and under pressure because of Graeme Swann’s comments, I watched as much as I could overnight. So, probably not the best circumstances to give intelligent analysis of performances etc. Hollow victory in terms of the Ashes, but a victory.

Guardian report: 'There was nothing to report from a tedious opening aside from the pathetic and frequent poverty chanting by the Arsenal away support. Fair play to the Everton employee who decided to display an advertisement for ‘Fans Supporting Foodbanks’ on the giant stadium screens in response.'

Disappointing result last night. 8pm kick offs are a hard slog. Good to see the club responded to the pathetic poverty chants by our opponents with the ‘Fans Support Food Banks’ messages on the electronic scoreboards. Maybe Arsenal could send a message to some of their fan groups as well.

We created chances right until the end. Didn’t take them. That’s not the sole reason we lost but it’s also not the manager’s fault. We were a bit lucky they didn’t take all the chances they had (several gifts from us). Disappointment at a 2-0 defeat in that context is the sign of some progress #EFC

Saturday is my Stem Cells derby. In 2008 they saved the life of a lifelong @chelseafc fan. Love to see all @everton and @ChelseaFC accounts, getting behind us and joining the @dkms_uk or @anthonynolancharity stem cell register. Please RT to tell your mates 💙 #EFC #CFC💙

We’ve not understood the intensity required to be able to compete in #Ashes test #cricket. The need for constant focus from fielders and batters. The need for intelligent bowlers. Disappointed in Carse, Atkinson, Smith and Duckett in particular. Now wish they’d prove me wrong.

Some pretty ill-disciplined #cricket watching in that session. Fiddling around on other apps and lacking focus. Like the bowlers, I need to regroup and get back on it after the break. #ashes

I'm a late convert to test cricket but now absolutely love it. I think it's one of the very few things in life comparable to a novel - with different acts, a specific setting, character arcs that rise and fall, the beginning may end up being nothing like the end #Ashes2025

Super Jack gets the goals he deserves. Nice comments about Moyes #EFC

Elon Musk’s charitable foundation grew larger than ever in 2024. But, for the fourth year in a row, the huge charity failed to give away the minimum amount required by law — and the donations it did make went largely to charities closely tied to Musk himself, who is the world's richest man.

It’s so much like #Everton to take the pride and pleasure of a brilliant win at ManU and trash it with a game like last night. Unusually, I’m not blaming anyone who left early yesterday. I was there till the end with all hope gone because you have to suffer the awfulness to enjoy the good times.

Thats what maturity looks like, we all make mistakes. Onwards.

Also, if that lad who was our mascot is your kid, you should be extra proud of him tonight. That fist clench before the game was the spirit we need! #EFC #Evertonian

What a fantastic win!!! #EFC #UTFT

Strange there’s little nostalgia outside France for these glasses. At my very ordinary village primary school, we had these glasses for our water with school dinner. We used to have competitions about who had the highest number on the bottom of their glass. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

Just seen the shites score, how are sky sports going to recover from this

Don’t they call no balls in Australia? #Ashes #Cricket

Well, the bowlers have turned up ! #Ashes #cricket

how much does one have to hate this breathtaking, marvel-filled, glorious, beautiful earth we are undeservedly blessed to live on to think this?

Just out of interest, if you’re interested or involved in #FWWHist, what might you expect by way of events or media coverage in 2026 for the 110th Anniversary of the 1916 battles of the #Somme and #Verdun, as well as the #FWW #WW1 more generally? Anything? Nothing?

Visited the Imperial War Museum today, and spent the entire day in just two exhibits. The first is the new “Emergency Exits: The Fight for Independence in Malaya, Kenya and Cyprus” www.iwm.org.uk/events/emerg...

It's been incredible this week to see something that I, along with many others, have been working on for several years... "Emergency Exits: The Fight for Independence in Malaya, Kenya, and Cyprus" exhibit at the Imperial War Museum in London. The exhibition represents a significant evolution... 1/6

📣 Emergency Exits: The Fight for Independence in Malaya, Kenya and Cyprus. A new exhibition running at the Imperial War Museum between Oct 2025 - March 2026. I was approached last year to join the advisory panel and have been so delighted to see this project come to fruition.

Posting the day after the #EFC game is going to be my ‘thing’ I think. Yesterday turned on half time changes. But not just the game. The day. So much ‘new routine’ before. A poor performance against v good side. Then to a different level. Passion lead to belief. Crowd reaction to effort=*Support* 1/

Nathan Gill is no fringe politician. He was the leader of the Reform Party and before that UKIP in Wales. A Brexit Party MEP. A friend and ally of Nigel Farage, who in 2016 called him: "terrific," and "as honest as the day is long." This is a MASSIVE story www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

When there’s a handball against Everton we get some of the most technologically advanced camera’s you’ve ever seen. Salah handballs and it’s like footage from a takeaways CCTV on an episode of Crimewatch from 2006.

Not once in 410 Premier League games has there been 3 (or fewer) minutes added on for stoppage time. Not once…. Until today. #EFC #Everton

Enjoyed the game yesterday, despite the result. Sign of our progress. Villa have dropped off since we lost to them at Goodison - fouls, time wasting, etc. Thought it was interesting that playing James Garner at LB passed unremarked after the game. He just did what he does - a good job #EFC
