Obviously @adamlsmith.bsky.social is right about Guehi and I’d rather have someone else.

A horrible feeling that my defence of Slot will be similar to mine of Kenny in 2012 but with a similar outcome. Title winning managers being so easy to recruit and that. I think I despised the Red world in 2012/13 and I think I was right to.

B-boys B-girls

Awful when Jones went off. Try shooting, lads.

Sydney (a)

I have now blocked Dave.

2025 ‘Stoner’ was the best book I read last year

Must be 104 and still looks great.

A reminder.

For all the recent bias about dodgy spells, injuries, set pieces and ludicrous shouts about the manager’s job, it’s worth remembering that 2025 will be recorded as another title win for Liverpool. Happy New Year.

Loved visiting the SCG today. Difference between footy and cricket is that I could listen to tales about Bradman and Warne, supposedly the enemy, all day whereas Neville and Keane …

‘Unselected by Crocky Primary School but this young batsmen, with a headful of hair, finally makes his debut at the SCG to win the Ashes for Liverpool.’

Morning everyone.

It’s hard to imagine what it meant to me Holding you tight on the settee #earworm

Read Operation Mincemeat and it might be the most extraordinary thing I’ve ever read.

I’d quite like to start again and do it better. Thanks

2026 will be the Year of the Big Think About Stuff.

How IS Roger Daltrey?

Support your local podcaster. They’re up against this huge machine of posh lads, production companies with huge PR budgets, and lazy millionaire comedians. It was once a steam rally, now it’s a car show.

spare a thought for david walliams, doesn't have to be a kind one

I know we’ve moved on but can’t help but think about Mo Salah going back to the dressing room and facing Ronnie Moran.

Companies who ask ‘Are you happy to switch this conversation to WhatsApp?’ BIG RED FLAG

In a high school in Croxteth sometime in the mid-80’s, a young @thecenci.bsky.social’s life is about to take an irrevocable turn…

I quite like being radical left scum and like also that I know that those words should not be capitalised. Orange Prick.

Can I ask you to resist the urge to type the words ‘just reflecting’ on a LinkedIn post this week. Maybe, ‘just talking myself up in the hope of likes and affirmation’? Oh, go on.

Big fan of the saucer use. Different times.

I love this film.

Mad that I might be denied entry into the U.S and would have to explain what I mean by ‘no runners’

If you’re against a government making protest illegal it’s probably best to point it out now while you can.

I think it’s to play guitar or bass in a band again. Just a covers band that doesn’t take itself seriously. If you’re in Norwich …

Apologies again for the pod delays. @jonrees87.bsky.social is working on other projects and @thecenci.bsky.social isn’t even on the same continent. We will return!

Merry Christmas, Yours Henry Baker Tottenham Court Road.

… when I’m 60.

Done a lot of stuff. Black belt, three peaks, marathons, abseil, novels etc. I never thought I’d jump out of a plane but did so last week. Not sure what’s next and it’s worrying me. Humble brag, maybe but I don’t want to just stop at 60.

Used to love Christmas Eve. Now I dread it Happy birthday, Kags.

Arrested

At the next election I’ll remember that they arrested people for opposing genocide or even just holding a piece of card with the P word on it more than anything else.

Well, it’d be very Britain for this to be the country where she gets imprisoned for terrorism, and not anywhere else.

This week’s TAW column is about being a bit peeved after a win. mailchi.mp/theanfieldwr...

Suggested we put on The Holy Bible for ‘some Christmas music.’ Wonder if I can make it to Archives of Pain.

Interesting dynamic on Facebook. ‘Here’s a regional newspaper with visual comments calling you and your people twats? Follow?’

Not bothering with Drafts then, Substack. You fucking twats.

OK, I misremembered slightly, but I still think this is the kind ot thought that should stay in the shower

Great that this bullshit is being called out more now.
