Mallorca again. Same place as last year. The big change is, that for the first time in living memory, we can go in September. Half price everything :-) |

It's really depressing. Is it Nourry's fault? Or is the owners' fault in lumping all this responsibility on an extremely inexperienced and incredibly young bloke?
Who knows? The result's the same. |

That sounds excellent.
Meanwhile, I was listening to Sean Penn on the Louis Theroux pod and he recommended Euphoria.
Watched the first episode last night. Jeez. Punchy or what.... |

He was good yesterday and generally seems to have stopped his habit of going for tricks and flicks in dangerous situations. And he's got real pace.
I like this version of Ashby. Not the one I saw at the start. |

It's a weird one. Massively frustrating to watch at all the home games I've been to this season.
Seems to have picked up for some reason lately. A sudden run of assists and a then a great bit of control before his goal yesterday.
Obviously if he carries on like this, great. But will he? Hmmmm..... |

That really was a grim watch. B&Q here I come.
Edited to add; when I saw that Field was out again I remembered one of Jack Supple's stats about the points we pick up when he starts vs those when he doesn't. Not good.
Then of course we've been lacking Chair for much of this campaign and Saito's now crocked (poor fella). Then I read about Smyth's ridiculous retrospective three match ban (WTAF??) and my heart sank further. And then Varnane got injured in the warm up. You couldn't make this stuff up.
So I wasn't surprised that a lively and in-form Swansea were able to dominate for long periods. But it made it a hard watch.

X is full of shit. It attracts the world's thickest and angriest people. It's the online equivalent of a flat roofed pub. |

I thinks he was mates with Matlock - seem to remember an interview with him saying he always stayed at Matlock's place when he was in London. |

I've got two tickets in the Lower Loft (and have had for several years). But at the start of this season some members of an ahem "interesting" family decided that they wanted to be all together and started using my seats.
I had three major barneys with them at the start of the season where I flat refused "go somewhere else".
FFS you can't make this stuff up. |

I don't usually give up on books but I did with American Psycho. I found it both boring in long parts then horrifically brutal. Shame, as I loved Bret Easton Ellis's earlier books.
Another one I gave up on was JG Ballard's Crash. More horrendous gore combined with bizarre sexual fantasies. WTAF? |

Saw him live at the Kentish Town Forum in the early 90s.
Was blown away by just how good the Blockheads were. Phenomenal band, amazing live.
I later found out that Trevor Horn often called them in to Sarm Studios as session musicians.
Still listen to them to this day. I use Hit Me With Your Rythm Stick as a reference track every time I get a new set of headphones. |
