Managed to get some Super Furry Animals tickets for next May. Not quite the bargain price they were first time round... #SFA #bargen
A ticket to a Super Furry Animals gig in 1996 at Bangor University/Prifysgol Bangor.

Decent wildcard - decent progress. Up to the top 2.5million 🥳 If my subs can repeat this next week on a bench boost I'll be very happy. #FPL

When to play Alderete will be the next dilemma. I say this as a gw6 wildcarder who benched him! Happy with my Pope over Raya move though.

Nice to see someone else on Team Foden Pigeon 💪

It takes a pigeon to break the template (J Pedro uncertainties have led me the same way). Good luck!

Gyokeres below DCL 👀

Only three of these are surviving on the wildcard. Warra season so far. #FPL

What could have been for Joe! I'll take it anyway. #FPL

I've worked at the BBC for nearly 15 years. People are always talking about a guy called Ed Poll, who I've never met but is across all kinds of big decisions. Last week, I learned it's actually a department called Editorial Policy.

Reminds me a bit of this, which I found a few years ago in an old Western Mail. Rugby first, relationships second.

Breathalyser 'victims' is an interesting viewpoint, to say the least!

The early season curse is broken.

When your star men are central defenders you know it's not going well. #fpl

The coffee in your stout is from my local coffee shop! 🍻☕️

There's a case for playing Porro if we assume Spurs set up as they did against PSG. Tosin in the XI with Porro first sub?

Started Wirtz instead of Thiago. Skill issue #FPL

Struggling to find 2 forwards I'm enthusiastic about, without ripping up my team and getting Ollie Watkins and Ekitike.

The other 10% is Elliot Anderson or Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.

Finally, enjoy it. It's a game at the end of the day, and if it stops being fun and too much like hard work, step away and go for a walk or something. You might get an inspirational thought, and captain Ben Chilwell that week.

Try to leave your team/player biases at the door. I appreciate that is very difficut when #fpl have priced Joe Rodon at 4.0m 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿.....

Fixtures matter. You may disagree with the official #fpl colour coding from time to time, but a striker, on penalties, against three promoted sides in consecutive weeks is very hard to ignore......
