I am becoming increasingly conscious of this. This is the hardest individual action for me. I love travelling, and I want to do more of it. If someone said that I could either never get on a plane again or never eat meat again, the decision would be so easy for me. I'd never eat meat again. One simple thing I'd happily promise to never do again is to fly internally within the UK. Admittedly, I've only done this twice (Birmingham to Edinburgh and back, and Edinburgh to Glasgow and back) but I go to Scotland often for work and most of the time I drive or get the train depending on how much equipment I have to take with me. In all honesty, it probably doesn't take that much longer for me to get to Glasgow from mine via train than getting from my house to Birmingham Airport and flying to Glasgow, yet the environmental impact of flying is substantially greater.

Fightstar were genuinely a really good band but were just never properly accepted because Charlie Simpson was in Busted.

- A suitable replacement available who would likely take the job. - Plenty of time to appoint that manager, for him to meet most of the squad and have time on the training ground with them. - 39 games of the season left with us still not completely cut adrift from those at the top of the league. The opportunity could not be any more ideal.

I had a negative experience but much of this was based on my circumstances at the time. I had a job that I was unqualified for and I sucked at (and was let go from), I'd just been dumped, I didn't know anyone there and lived alone, I started drinking heavily. I just was in a really bad way. I have a negative association with the city, which probably does cloud my judgement somewhat, but I also do just find it depressing.

Not sure this applies to Saturday. It only got ugly after the final whistle. There was plenty of support before they equalized. Had we won the game, the atmosphere would have been a positive one. We're in League One and drew from a winning position against 10 men. You couldn't expect people to be happy with that.

I had a negative experience living there, but generally I find the place really depressing. The whole city is basically a construction site, brooding high rise popping up everywhere, there are almost no open or green spaces or parks etc. around the city centre, very few sights to see, the weather is always shite and the place is just really grubby.

Ed Sheeran doesn't have to take a public stance in support of the Palestinian cause. However, I believe that he should take exception to a billionaire not only threatening to ban him from playing a stadium owned and operated by the Kraft group but who also rallied other stadium owners to withdraw from their venues being used if he didn't remove Macklemore from the line up for exercising free speech and and freedom of expression. As an artist, he should have a very clear stance on freedom of speech and artistic expression. He can do so without having to endorse the political stance of Macklemore. Let's not act like any of this is about antisemitism by the way. Kanye West has played and continues to play many of the same stadiums. If anything, a musician being banned from performing in stadiums for speaking in support of the Palestinians by billionaires, many of whom are Jewish, sets a very dangerous precedent, as it gives ammunition to genuine antisemites/Neo-Nazis as they see this as evidence of the "Jews control the world" conspiracy in action. The deliberate and very cynical conflation between Jewish people as a whole and the actions of the state of Israel is very dangerous. There are many Jewish people who have been openly critical of the actions of the state of Israel.

Man United are really bad. In other news, ice is cold.

I keep forgetting that Man City are playing a man down. They look really comfortable.

Only the the 7 league titles, a European Cup and several FA cups and league cups 😂

Performative shite from their fans. "Oooo look at us, we sing when we're losing 5-0 at home." Proper small time behaviour

Inshallah 0-4

They were so cocky. They won a terrible championship. It wasn’t sour grapes to point that out even though we went down. They are a terrible top flight side. Down with less than 20 points.
