Oh man. Such sad news.

Our legend, the incredible Billy Bonds has died.
How he never played for England is beyond me.

What a player, what a man.

Back home after negotiating the M25. On chef duties and having a deserved beer. Having Big Parade from Beak. It's their flagship brew Parade but saturated with the finest hops. Gave it 4.25. It's spendid. All you want from a decent DIPA

A couple of days in Essex. Popped into the Lakeside on our way home to get some Christmas shop done, and the decs are a couple of mark I Ford Escorts hanging from the roof for this year's effort. Could anything be more Essex.

Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement.

Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph

Because this does NOT add up!

No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies…

I’m off at the moment, I can turn the channel over. So my immense sympathy for all those travelling #Pompey fans present for that insipid and toothless display, in bitter November weather, at a ground the Blues haven’t won at since 1955.

You can pick lots of holes in that performance but if you can’t defend set pieces it makes many other aspects redundant. 2 Sheff Utd goals from 5 corners in 54 minutes and no way back. Needs to be fixed urgently, feels like it’s got worse #Pompey

Nothing in that half in open play but #Pompey just cannot defend set pieces at the moment and sooner or later that will catch up with you. Devlin’s instinctive punch on the line led to a red and a penalty. Mountain to climb for Portsmouth

The curse of Bramall Lane continues. I have been their in my younger days at least 3 times and always seen us lose. Can't see us getting back in this, but you can only hope. The legend that is Terry Devlin and he can play anywhere. What a save!! PUP

Farage has a long history of racism.

Chris Mason will be along later to explain that “this is why Starmer must resign”.

When the racist comedian Bernard Manning fell out of fashion in more tolerant times and stopped appearing on TV he defended his long history of appalling offensive "jokes" as nothing more than "banter"and insisted that he "had a go at everyone".

This is the Bernard Manning defence.

Previously, you could have (unconvincingly) said you didn't know Farage was a nasty racist ****

Now, if you vote for him, you have to say you know he's a nasty racist **** and you are happy with that
