Back to work today, and it’s a cold day too - already wanting to be back in Vlorë, or anywhere else that looks like this ✈️🗺️ #albania

What a place Tirana is, crazy & bustling, with new buildings flying up everywhere, but no infrastructure to match - it takes some getting used to, but once you are it’s a great city, with lots of green space to escape the car horns ✈️🗺️

Tonight’s TNT coverage has been better at celebrating Sam Rosen and his career than anything MSG or the Rangers organisation has done (yet?) #NYR

Newcastle need another 5 goals to jump above Chelsea on goal difference, and based on this start, it’s definitely possible #LEINEW #EPL

And with that loss, the Rangers have 6 games left on the worst season that I remember watching Of the 6 games left, there’s maybe 2 that are winnable, it’s going to be a tough last couple of weeks #NYR

Awful effort on that shorthanded goal for the Devils, 3 of the rangers forwards just gliding back with no urgency whatsoever, shouldn’t be back out on PP for the rest of the game, they’re not doing anything positive when they’re out anyway #NYR

Final week of the EIHL season, and Steelers are now just 1 point behind current leaders Belfast Giants - Giants have 2 games against Nottingham Panthers, wins for the Panthers could hand the league title to their biggest rivals Steelers likely need 4 points from Cardiff & Coventry to be able to win

'So what are you thinking? Is the tariff on Peru going to be higher or lower than for the Turks and Caicos Islands?' #tariffs

This is just the type of game I’m hoping to see from the Rangers through the rest of the season - exciting, lots of shots and goals. I’m not bothered for the score, as this game shows, we’re so far off being a respectable playoff team, it’s better to miss out completely #NYR

0 - Harry Redknapp never named a single German player in any of his 641 Premier League starting XI's as a manager. Spies.

That Welsh kick off summarises the game completely, hardly made 5 yards #6nations

This Wales team really are suffering, it’s almost painful to see, nice easy try there though, have Nessa a reason to cheer England doing their best to make point difference a deciding factor tonight! #6nations #WalEng

Stop 3 of the Irish triangle, down the hill to Fagans, one of the most photographed pubs in Sheffield, because of the @petemckee.bsky.social mural

Stop 2, and I’ve got a Guinness at the Grapes, not a great beer selection in here Irish band one side, rugby on the other, and bust all over

Trip around the Irish triangle of Sheffield today, first stop - Dog and Partridge

2 short handed goals on the same penalty kill - there’s a reason to bring power kill in from PWHL Also, more goals than we’ve managed on the last 18 power plays #NYR

Can MSG stop interviewing these WWE guys now, they’ve both been train wrecks, the wrestlers act like they’ve never been interviewed before #NYR

Not a good look for Drury tonight, as the Rangers scratch 3 of the newest acquisitions #NYR

K’Andre Miller having no luck with sticks so far, first one snapped trying to hold the puck in the zone at blue line, he dropped his second one and got caught pinned in his own zone #NYR

Huge day in continental football, as Arkadag win again! The Turkmenistan champions have won all bar 1 of their competitive games since being created The 1 game they didn’t win, was against Al Arabi, who they could face in the next round, after the Kuwaiti team won their first leg

🇸🇲 SAN MARINO'S LEAGUE IS ON FIFA+! The news Sweeper listeners have been waiting for: the Campionato Sammarinese is now available on FIFA+!!! San Marino Academy U22, the national team's youth side, face Juvenes/Dogana at 13:50 GMT / 14:50 CET today. Watch for free ⬇️ 🔗 tinyurl.com/SweeperFIFAPlus

Sad to see Lindgren go, but it’s the right thing to do, always put his body on the line, but he was a Staal/Girardi contract waiting to happen, too much for too long, were injuries catch up with him #NYR

How many games before the trade deadline do the Rangers need to lose for leadership to start selling come deadline, or do they still think there’s a chance of a cup run? #NYR

Awful period, sack this game off, and the rest of the season, get a decent draft pick, and sell any assets worth anything #NYR

With this run of points Zibanejad has started Mika March early, if he can keep this up going into his favourite month of the year, it could look like a pretty respectable season #NYR

What a game of rugby that was, plenty of handling errors, but that’s not taking anything away from England’s fight and spirit, a deserved win based on 2nd half #6nations

How do the rangers trade a centre for a centre and end up with Brodzinski centring the third line?! #NYR

That’s 2/3 of the kid line gone, for older, slower and less dynamic players in return #NYR

Awful trade, sending out Chytil presumably in the expectation he’ll continue to get injured, as he’s younger, cheaper, and has more potential than Miller Sending a first round pick too, must mean Drury thinks we can have a run at the cup this season - he’s either deluded, or doesn’t watch the games

FYI - I'm shutting down Far Away Football Twitter, so this will be the main community going forward - with other channels to be rolled out. Tell your friends. ❤️

Drinking what may be my last Magic Rock beer, shame as it was a great brewery prior to selling out to Lion, even made great beers in the years after that, seems the last sale to Odyssey Inns was just for IP Their tap room in Huddersfield was always worth a visit too #craftbeer

Rangers have played well for most of the 60 mins, can’t remember the last time I’ve been able to say that. Markstrom kept devils in the game through the third #NYR
