Nurturing the #Boro fans of the future. I did a gig at St Josephs RC Primary this week talking about the early years of the club, the game & the town. Great fun. Some great questions asked.

#OnThisBoroDay - 1991: #Boro boss Colin Todd dramatically puts 11 [ELEVEN] players on the transfer list. They had a decent season but lost in the play-offs to Notts County. It meant dismantling the Class of 86. A stark demonstration the post-padlocks Rioch revival was over. Make or break for Toddy.

The public meltdown happening between the world’s richest man 🙄 and the President of the United States 🙄🙄 once again begs the age-old question: are men simply too emotional to be in positions of power?

Mega historical bust ups. A thread. 1. King John and Philip of France The powerful foreigner cynically helped put the incompetent, odious sex offender on the throne only to launch an all out war against him. John bankrupted his kingdom, fell out with everyone and shat himself to death

Within the space of an evening Musk has gone from (just about) an ally of Trump’s to alleging that he’s in the Epstein files and should be impeached. Meanwhile, Steve Bannon suggests Musk should be deported. Just another normal night in Trump’s America.

I feel like Musk could really blow MAGA's collective minds just by continuing to tweet out facts the rest of us have known for years but never penetrated their media bubble.

Just been reminded of this. Older viewers will remember that Cozy Powell went on Record Breakers to break the world record for the most drums played in under one minute, a magnificently absurd piece of television which I made more absurd a while back by adding piano, because I had time on my hands

#OnThisBoroDay - 1980: John Neal's #Boro become a global superpower as they beat Espanyol to lift the fabled Kirin Cup in Tokyo. Craig Johnston scored a screamer in a mud-splattered 1-1 draw with the Spanish side then Tony McAndrew scored the final penalty in a shoot-out.

Adapting my favourite Brexit-tweet. Trump: you don’t have the cards! Zelenskyy lays down a royal flush Putin looks at his own cards: Mr Bun the Baker, Pikachu, a Shadowmage, a fireball spell, and the Fool.

#OnThisBoroDay - 1962: Despite playing in Division Two with #Boro , North Ormesby goal-machine Alan Peacock makes his England debut against Argentina in the World Cup in Chile. England won 3-1. (Flowers pen, Charlton, Greaves, fact fans.)

Bruce, Newcastle 1985. Brilliant. Before the gig crowd sat waiting, a bunch of posh student types sat in front of us with a picnic playing Trivial Pursuit. Suddenly, movement on stage & crowd surged to front & food, Triv question cards & cheeses went up in the air amid distraught wailing.
