Is there a worse task than untangling xmas tree lights? They get put away perfectly laid out and emerge in a mass tangle. I will have to follow my annual tradition of binning them and ordering new ones lest I entangle and choke myself 😬

Nearly full bingo card of train delays getting to Sunderland in 6 hours 45 mins. Landslip/derailment ✔️ signals failure ✔️ slow moving preceding train ✔️ line suspension through item on overhead wires ✔️

I'm just looking at tonight's UEFA Cup and Conference League matches. I can see 12 away on that list I've been to in Europe with #efc, not counting friendlies. Some fantastic experiences. Hopefully, it will not be too long before we get to scratch the European itch once again.

Fans Supporting Foodbanks @SFoodbanks will be in the Fan Zone before the match tomorrow. They are extremely short of supplies right now, so if you are able to, please bring along a bag and drop it off with these very dedicated workers on your way in. 💙🙏

Off we go on the last of a long catalogue of Goodison adventures. Feels quite surreal. Very sad. Experienced the highs and the lows over many years and wouldn't swap it for anything #utft

I think that the move from Goodison to BMD is too big to take in one step. As an interim measure I propose that we play the first half of games at BMD then the second half at Goodison. #utft
