I was there last night with my son and his Villa supporting mate. Weird atmosphere in the pubs before and after - everyone resigned to the loss before it happened and treating it as an excuse for a piss-up.

I have a really strong memory of trying to draw Martin Chivers sat next to my friend Stephen in primary school aged about six or seven. I remember the jealousy of realising Stephen was better at drawing than me.

It’s the team London incomers always land on (Starmer, Corbyn etc). They never choose QPR or Palace or Charlton do they? Fail to realise they’re the MK Dons of their day - franchise football.

And to you! How are you doing?
