Trav Le Bleu

I'm a postie, it's been Christmas for weeks

Get that book published! (The one I keep telling you to write.)

Puts me in mind of Alex Batty, the kid who went missing for years and was recently found in France. The news (Radio 6 I think I heard it on - possibly Radio 5) was saying that they were waiting for his passport to be sorted so he can go home. Why? Just let the kid go home! I suppose you could argue that after all these years what difference does a few days make, but seriously, what's the point? When he gets home he'll want to leave the country almost immediately? Personally I find the whole thing about passports, nationality, borders and the movement of humans far too complex. Just let people be where they want to be. What's that Suella? Billions of them want to be in the UK? Rishi was right - everyone should learn maths to a competent level.

It wasn't the move. I would've accepted that. It's the fact he said he wasn't leaving less than 24 hours earlier.

Pro-nons-iashiun. Noel Gallagher.

I still listen to new music in my 50s, but I've noticed that people who do listen to new music past their 30s were invariably NOT into chart music. The music I liked listening to in my 20s rarely troubled the top 20, even less so now that all that seems to make the charts is latin based rhythms or pity-me-dirge-anthems that make Joy Division look upbeat.

Seems like the BBC needs to create Radio 7: Radio heaven for miserable old gits across the land!

No, but you can understand why Blackburn might want to.

I was thinking something similar to this. I was thinking that so many people have been saying Ipswich can't keep this up, and they have! Reminds me of our 2015-16 season. It would be ironic if we did a Spurs.

Plan A is early in the game to both tire and frustrate the opposition, then you shift to a more attacking game. Fairly happy with this as it seems to be working against nearly all strategies.

I'm just made up for @Finnegan. The boy's just got his first football team named after him. So emosh.

Ricky P is decent.

Villa at home. Goal that laid him out, but won the game after being 2-0 down fairly early in the season. So crucial, cos it would've knocked confidence.

That's the joke.

Are you worried he might kill him?

RIP @Jattdogg

Moving slightly to one side, Bill Kenwright v Michael Oliver would be interesting.

Disclaimer: I do not condone violence against referees or indeed anyone. Just a bit of hypothetical nonsense.

Christmas - that time of year when you lie to your kids

Why is it when some of our players put in a good performance they're still not good for fans, or it's just a flash in the pan, or they need to do that every game? Just enjoy a good performance, get behind the players. Using it as a reason to criticise... words fail I'd hate to work for any of these "could do better" fans.

Good life hack.

Reality - so annoying. This cartoon - hilarious.
