The trouble with managing a big name club in the women’s game is people expect decent budget & support which can be incredibly misleading. Matt Beard had been pushing an elephant up the stairs at Liverpool. Be good to see him at a club that allows him to compete for honours again. Maybe #NWSL next?

Loved working with Glenn Hoddle again last night. It had been a while…

No foul by Maguire as his hand only brushed Young’s hip, but the foul appeared to be committed by de Ligt pulling back Young’s shirt, first with his right hand then also his left (though trickier to see that). VAR (under time pressure) seemed to spend more time on Maguire issue. #efc #mufc

I have a soft spot for Everton FC. Their new stadium looks magnificent. But why on earth are they still advertising Stake, one of the nastiest sports betting operators in the world, when Stake has had its licence revoked in Britain?

Wishing former USA 🇺🇸 goalkeeper Tony Meola all the very best after his heart attack. Scary news but glad he’s on the mend 🙏🏼 #bhafc

Big moment for Wolves midfielder Marshall Munetsi making his Premier League debut at Anfield. He’s a huge Liverpool fan #lfc #wwfc

Imagine a company (we'll call them Premier Sports Network) published a 3,300w article on their website that was over 95% plagiarised word-for-word from your work. What would you do? Well, I sent them an invoice. This is what happened next... theuglygame.wordpress.com/2025/02/06/p... 1/

It’s the 30th anniversary of the greatest #FACup penalty shoot-out strike by any player, let alone a goalkeeper. Kevin Pressman putting Sheffield Wednesday 🔵⚪️ 3-0 up in 4th round replay shootout at Molineux 🟠⚫️. But Don Goodman scored the winning penalty for Wolves 4-3 #swfc #wwfc (reverse angle 🚀)

How Wolves could do with a player of his ilk now. Billy Wright was a phenomenal leader in central defence, the first international in the world to reach 100 caps 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 and former Arsenal manager too. #wwfc 🟠 in 17th place v #afc 🔴 in 2nd. #WOLARS

Important debate to be had about women’s sport coverage. Difficult for ex-players to give critical analysis about former team-mates in particular. Often everyone knows everyone. But non-personal honest analysis essential for professional women’s sport to thrive. www.espncricinfo.com/story/alex-h...

Seeing Manu Petit 🇫🇷 on #MNF reminds me of travelling round France with him at Euro 2016 for ITV. He was mobbed by French fans at railway stations/stadia, having scored in 1998 World Cup final 🏆 and won Euro 2000 🏆. He made time for every single fan. Selfies, etc. True gent.

Doing my commentary prep for tomorrow and seeing #MUFC as the fifth lowest Premier League scorers after 20 games (along with #LCFC who sit second bottom of the PL table) is mind blowing. United have scored 15 goals fewer than Brentford. 👇🏼

If you’re intrigued as to why Elon Musk is the way he is, listen to this interview with his oddly confrontational father, Errol, expertly conducted by Fi Glover for the brilliant “Off Air with Jane & Fi” podcast (with Jane Garvey). Starts 32 mins 20s in… podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/o...

Copper Queens former HC Bruce Mwape has been reassigned to junior teams in an “advisory capacity.” Mind you this is a man who is accused of sexually assaulting players on the Zambian National Team. Putting him with the youth teams is so insidious. Read more here: bolanews.co/soccer/women...

I’ve noticed that cafes are starting to ask for tips for service at the till (where you order/pay at the counter and wait for your food to be brought to you). Are we going down the US route whereby cafes/restaurants pay staff less, expecting customers to top up basic pay? 🤔

Andy Hinchcliffe talking all manner of sense on Sky co-comms. Always gives an opinion but always explains the reasoning behind it too. One of the best in the business. He absolutely loves that role and it shows. Great to work with 👌🏼

New Year’s resolution idea for retailers: put some actual customer service staff on the occasional till so the solitary person on duty isn’t utterly frantic and miserable dealing with all the customers asking for/needing their help on the numerous self-service machines. #Boots
