Bloke from Salisbury, England. In my 60's, somewhat unbelievably.

    The German rendering of Ben Lyttleton’s Twelve Yards reads like it’s about monitoring elves

    I’d read that book too

    Thoughts on yesterday’s Tottenham - Chelsea match ⚽

    • wasn’t it marvellous?

    • caicedo was maybe lucky to stay on, but not as lucky as Kulusevski

    • Spurs need to take action against the daft people who chucked stuff at our players, and the FA need to take action against the daft club that gave them the stuff to throw

    • I love all sorts of music…but “Tottenham Hotspur, it’s happening again” is my favourite song

    • The Athletic: Palmer’s Panenka penalty was as brilliant as it was utterly disrespectful.

    • as I say…. marvellous

    Thoughts on the Chelsea match this afternoon

    • lovely to see a bit of proper ice-cold Cole Palmer magic again

    • Caicedo man of the match imho

    • great tackle by Cucarellla for the first goal

    • indirect free kicks in the box seem really tough to score from

    • the Arsenal are ahead of us in the League on alphabet. We need to change our name to AFC Chelsea ⚽
