So glad United didn’t go for him.

I’m not saying he’s not a good manager, or that the original decision to sack him was right. It’s the fact he’s previously been sacked at all which makes it an issue for me.

The weather. We were forecast light rain this morning. It’s absolutely hosing down with sleet in the mix, flooding everywhere. Absolutely sick and tired of it now.

I don’t even understand the clamouring for Pochettino, if I’m honest. I absolutely get that there’s a different regime at Spurs now, but why would a manager return to a club which sacked him, and why would a club re-employ a manager they have previously deemed not right for the job? All seems a...

Great news. For United, not England.

Just catching my first action of the T20 WC, and not sure I’ll be watching an awful lot more. Nothing to do with the cricket itself, but the buffoon stadium announcers who are bellowing into their microphones non-stop. It’s absolutely unbearable.

Sorry, I meant Palace at home was our next tough fixture 😉😇

His attitude is first class. He hasn’t let the fact he has been on the bench get to him, and when he has come on he has taken his chance. It’s his first season, as a young lad, at a new club in a new league when he has spent much of that time being expected to carry the attack. Carrick has...

I’ve already been asked if I’m disappointed in that result. Why would I be? West Ham packed their defensive third every time United had the ball. United did not play as well as they have been doing. We don’t play well away against this opposition. And we were never going to win every game...

I stuck it for 25 cringeworthy minutes, during which time Aluko did absolutely nothing to alter the views that so many have of her. The reverse, in fact. She just floundered under the questioning, and kept reverting to the fact that, if she shared a TV studio with pundits she regarded as...

As luck would have it, I have 47 minutes spare. Catch you all in a bit………

Loosely translated as “Get back in your box.” Jordan’s description of how Aluko comes across is absolutely spot on. And I suspect, and indeed hope, that she has just drawn a line under her broadcasting career. Horrible woman with a hugely inflated opinion of herself.

For once I am really irritated that I missed TalkSport this morning. I’ll bet it was absolutely hilarious. Whatever anyone says about Simon Jordan, he doesn’t suffer fools and Aluko is one of the biggest there is.

Okay, after some advice from those who know. Is it wise to take a Model 3 Tesla on a long journey, even if fully charged and with enough apparent range to complete that journey, if the signs (including an on-screen alert) are that the 12v battery is failing?

It was worth every penny! And there are big discounts available on food and drink at OT if you time your arrival right.
