One of the most annoying things about moving to Apple Music from CDs is the odd inability to find various compilation albums for quite a few artists. Sure, you can create a playlist but it really should be possible to go and get Shaved Fish without having to make it myself.

So what the hell is going on with Man City’s sanctions for their financial misconduct? Will anything ever happen?

How the hell is that not a foul on Jesus? #arsenal

Why is Shrewsbury’s pitch so narrow? It’s like a kids pitch.
January 1, 2026 at 3:21 PM
Good god Shrewsbury’s kit is the worst thing I’ve ever seen. #BristolRovers

Are there really enough people in the country that enjoy ‘boogie woogie’ to sustain an annual show like this?

I’d like Arsenal to score 5 so that Villa can begin their inevitable slide down to 8th where they belong.

How can it look offside from one side of the pitch and onside from the other? #arsenal

Rogers worries me. Glad he’s English; wish he wasn’t playing for Villa.
December 30, 2025 at 9:33 PM
Merino lucky there
December 30, 2025 at 9:32 PM
How the hell is that a free kick on Rogers? #Arsenal

Prediction: Gyokeres will lose his place to Havertz.
December 30, 2025 at 9:30 PM
Haha fuck you Martinez #arsenal
December 30, 2025 at 9:23 PM
Could Villa take any longer with every free kick / goal kick? #arsenal #ARSAVI

Rovers have been absolute dogshit tonight but that was never a penalty #BristolRovers

Goalkeepers are so over-protected, whether being fouled or fouling. Tell me this wouldn’t have been a red card if it had been committed by an outfield player. #gyokeres #arsenal

Music biographies are the greatest. As soon as I start one I just need to listen to anything related to the subject, and before long I need to listen to everything I have ever heard or not heard

Villa should be docked points for playing Hi-Ho Silver Lining at the end of the game.

Was having a chat with a non-native English speaker this morning and she used the term ‘over-simplicated’ instead of over simplified and I thought it sounded great.

Oh good god the news about Rob and Michelle Reiner is just unbearably sad.

My absolute favourite director growing up; it’s one of those ‘it can’t be actually true’ moments.

As more devastating revelations appear about Nigel Farage we ask, can he survive this?

This isn’t a unique observation for sure, but Quentin Tarantino, criticising someone’s *acting*??

Don’t get me wrong I love lots of Tarantino movies, but he’s the worst thing in every one them that he appears in, by a country mile.

I remember where I was when I heard about John Lennon’s death. I was in school assembly and the headteacher talked about it. I loved the Red and Blue albums back then, aged 9. We used to listen to them in the car. It’s the only primary school assembly I think I can remember. youtu.be/uVXR2LYeFBI?...
