Theatre for 35 years, mainly for children and young people. Politics, sport and cultural things. Seasonal Mill Worker. East Lothian. Definitely football and walking football.
Clarke's caution means we will never see the best from a decent squad. Leaving Gilmour out, the one player who can provide a level of rhythm and control should be illegal. A more clinical team would have murdered us before we started scoring Sunday league goals 😂 #SCOGRE

Scottish football needs a reset. Club Brugge tonight have a back line all from their academy. Rangers have a back line from all over who seem to have never played football before. All our clubs, including my own Hibs, don't build from the youth in the ways that others do. And it's killing our game.

Quite brilliant
This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

A wonderful story for Katrin-Berger, and a brilliant save to take them to penalties. The French must be kicking themselves, simply ran out of ideas. #WEuros25

Incredibly brave Israelis. There's always a glimmer of hope that folk, and young folk in particular, the world over, will stand up for humanity.
These young Israelis are enormously brave and deserve full-blooded commendation and support
Young refuseniks burn their IOF draft papers in the middle of Tel Aviv
They refuse to serve in the Israeli Occupation Forces, and are willing to go to military jail for their position. The new generation of refuseniks is supported by the older, many of them spent months in jail already

The Club World Cup has nothing on the drama of the Women's Euros. This is a proper competition and is only going to get better. Last 20 mins of Switzerland Finland was nerve wracking. Great stuff 😊 #WEuros2025

Watching Wales is way more exciting than watching Scotland. Maybe it's something to do with a young manager with fresh, positive ideas 🤣 C'mon Wales!! #Wales

Scotland have some very good players. We know that. And yet we go out against Iceland and....sit back. Play long vague balls. Forget the goalie, Clarke hasn't got a clue what to do with the talent he has. #ScoIce

Faragism & Reform are on the rise in Scotland & it shouldn't surprise anyone considering Scotland's complacent, centrist politics. Mainstream politics are failing & people want change & tragically are turning to Reform. My @scotnational.bsky.social essay.

Lewis Ferguson, Scott McTominey, Billy Gilmour, Hibernian Women and now the utterly majestic Kim Little (Champion of Europe with Arsenal). Been a fine few weeks....I'll ignore Celtic screwing up and costing Hibs in Europe 😊 #Arsenal #Napoli #Bologna #Hibernian

Not an exaggeration to say that Scott McTominay is on the verge of going down as the defining figure of this Serie A season. An extraordinary scissor kick to put Napoli on the verge of a 4th title. They would not be close without him.

My grandmas were immigrants, my mum & sisters in law are immigrants; my sister & nephews are migrants. My kids study maths, Shakespeare, dance, act & score tries alongside the kids of immigrants. My dad’s life was saved by immigrants. Immigrants have made us richer, wiser, stronger
