Well, good news on the Spurs ticketing front I guess. I’d argue they should be reduced for next season but who am I kidding

Saved Friday’s @vftlpodcast.bsky.social for the trip to Spurs today and let me tell you I’m feeling even more depressed about things than before. Beers and a sighting of a Van de Ven or Romero to get me through the day 🙏

Been a while but managed to get this written up whilst parenting. *Quite* the milestone. #3 looks back at some great social I spotted from the Superbowl, the Oscars, plus some other bits and pieces you'll like substack.com/home/post/p-...

Truly awful Spurs performance. Without Vicario we lose that 3-0 and have no complaints. As it stands we have a chance next week but that was 90 minutes that really makes you lose hope in this project. Lacked confidence, spark, intent, ideas. Couldn’t play out against a mid table Eredivisie side.

As usual the more I look at it the more I like it. Early 2000s me is very excited. I’m also a mega Neil Young fan so that alone is worth it

Consider me extremely welmed by the Glastonbury lineup 🫠

Few things I enjoy more in football than watching a keeper turn into a god for a night. Alisson has been so good for so long but that’s one of the all time great displays. Pure force of will. Never being beaten tonight.

Unsurprising. Perhaps biased but do think the Spurs social team are the best in the business. Have done some fine work for a good couple of years now 👌

Lovely Sunday of football ahead. Just an all round pleasant feeling when you’ve won well the day before. A Sunday that can’t be ruined by this silly sport

Bought a billion players and have the two worst keepers in the country. Poor poor Chelsea 🤗

This is fantastic. Think we underestimated just how much we’ve missed his leadership the last few months. youtu.be/S5LsAXrgFvI?...

Today is a good day. New Sam Fender 🤝

Very interesting (and amusing) how sports media are latching onto the injury crisis ripping through the PL now the likes of Arsenal, Villa, Chelsea and United have succumbed. Maybe it’s my memory but I don’t remember think pieces about this back in November with Spurs’ injury crisis

Normal Monday in many ways. Man turns up selling garden furniture for 80% off. We’re in the market. Now own a load of Burmese teak. Quite sad that all I’m thinking now is ‘this must be a scam’ 🤨

Aside from Madders who was unbelievable for 60 mins, big shout out to Ben Davies. Spence my motm though. A rambling post here. Delighted to win 1-0. Dreadful game. Up the Spurs

For the first time in a long time I’m excited about going to Spurs today. Players back, bit of a reset after the cup defeats, feels like a moment. Let’s see

Watched The Gorge tonight and well. Fell somewhere between Notting Hill and a zombie apocalypse film. Confusing and entertaining in equal measure

I just want to see Romero in Lilywhite one more time. Is that so much to ask?

Pleased to see plenty of positive reviews today for Avowed. Have it downloaded and ready to go on the 18th. Excited

That really was vintage Barclays at Goodison tonight. Felt like a mid-2000s affair. Big thanks to Abdoulaye Doucoure for his efforts at the end

Polite reminder that Kanye West is a ****.

This is going to be it for Ange. Never ever forgive Levy and co for letting this happen.

Incredibly, I've published another issue of That's Good Social 🤯🫨. This week felt like a good one to play safe and look at the world of sport social - namely deadline day and the Luka Doncic trade... open.substack.com/pub/jayjaffa...

the Montoya Por Favor memes are killing me. What a show. I must find out how to watch more Temptation Island, Spain immediately

FM25 cancelled. No matter how it was handled (it never really felt possible when they delayed it to March) this is a dark dark day. First time an FM has been cancelled since? Ever?

Depressing.

Get through the first ten unscathed and I’ll believe.. #COYS

File this one under: game’s gone

Just having a read up on Mathys Tel and well...poor guy. Hope this won't need an update anytime soon

Amazing trade in the NBA overnight. Stunned the Mavs actually pushed Luka out. Football equivalent is: City moving Haaland, Ortega and Kovacic to Liverpool for Van Dijk and Tyler Morton (plus DoF Richard Hughes). Mad. Lakers have done so well out of this.
