For what it’s worth, this is the text of the complaint I just made (edited slightly to avoid outing someone here)

Thank you for 15 years of entertainment, and for making this stand
I was outraged to learn that Robin Ince has been forced to resign from Infinite Monkey Cage because of his support for Trans people. I’ve been listening to Monkey Cage since 2011 and, frankly, Robin has always been the most important part - representing the average person, toning down the more irritating guests, and balancing out Brian’s arrogance. It won’t be anywhere near as good without him… not that it matters, because as a supporter of the LGBT community, I will be boycotting in future. To bow to the abhorrent wave of anti-trans sentiment being drummed up by the likes of Farage and Rowling is a disgrace to the history of the Corporation.

You COULD view this is a tribute to my Scottish friends, but really it’s just an excuse for haggis & whisky!
Might struggle to eat it all…🤣

Also worth looking at what attendance a properly supported side manages to attract for a third-round match against a lower-league side…👀 #nufc #newbro

A very entertaining evening, and the first time I’ve seen us win at the Emirates. Thanks Arsenal (ps if you tried staying on your feet you might have more luck! 🤿) #nufc #arsnew

Now I’m here for the second time, I’ve realised that what I don’t like is that curved end. I guess they’re going for a “yellow wall” but if it was level with the sides all the way along I’d like it much more #nufc #totnew

Since I’m sat in Manchester charging my car now, after the earlier snafu, enjoy some mocking of the Man U “fans” 🤣🤡 #nufc #munnew

Whose bright idea was it to out us round the corner so we had to funnel through the home fans to get in? Fucking stupid! #nufc #munnew

Not sure I’ve posted this on BlueSky yet, but I consider this definitive…
Teamsheet from Alan Shearer’s home debut for Newcastle, against Wimbledon, in August 1996. Clearly shows David Batty - the definitive defensive midfielder - wearing number 4, while CB Steve Howey wears 6. As is right.

Feels like I should have had a “restricted view” discount for this one… and should have brought my sunglasses 🤣 #nufc
