Oh look! Our first ever bit of sponsorship, and it's only taken 25 years to get around to it! Plus I seem to be in the promo photo too, although that's definitely just a coincidence. Except that I was there last year, enjoyed it, and that inspired me to offer to sponsor it this year.

I don't tend to go to midweek #Arsenal matches because of how early I have to leave work and how late I get home, but tonight is a special night, and I wouldn't miss it for the world. Come on you Gunners!

I've never been magnanimous when it comes to football before, and I'm not going to start today. Instead, I'm going to focus on Tottenham, who get battered everywhere they go. And Arsenal Women doing sterling work in Lyon.

Google's AI is nearly spot on here, except for the fact that S Club 7 have never appeared in Doctor Who, there is no musical number in The Runaway Bride, and it didn't air in 2005.

The London Marathon is always inspiring. I was lucky enough to run it in 2016 and 2019, and still wonder if I've got it in me to do it again. If you have it as a bucket list item, go for it, no matter your age!

The paperback copies of my book have arrived!! Brilliant author Emilia Hart calls it “a modern gothic novel unlike any other”. It has haunted churches, war, evil Victorian gentlemen and modern art. If you order from my local bookshop I will sign it for you! Bit.ly/loveisacursesigned

Congrats to Man Utd, now officially safe from relegation.

Not an @theonion.com headline.

You are not allowed to do this to me. My blood pressure was just recovering.

Arsenal's record vs Real Madrid: 2006 - Real Madrid 0-1 Arsenal 2006 - Arsenal 0-0 Real Madrid 2025 - Arsenal 3-0 Real Madrid 2025 - Real Madrid 1-2 Arsenal Won 3, Drawn 1. Unbelievable.

A film that takes place where you're from.

I'm struggling to concentrate today, to the point that I initially wrote "stuggling" and only the red squiggly line stopped me. You'd think a 3-nil lead after the first leg would give me a bit more confidence. #COYG #Arsenal #RMAvARS

@keefstuart.bsky.social Hi Keith. I just read and enjoyed your piece on Plaything, having watched the episode last night. I also really enjoyed the memories, having joined PC Gamer in 1996. The only other bit in the show that didn't add up was a mag journo being able to afford all the tech and acid.

If the Doctor Who toy market now was like it was in 2007 I would be able to go out to the shops today and buy a remote control robot that said "POLISH POLISH" when I pressed a button. We used to be a real country

Jinxed it, mate.

Declan Rice, we got him half price.

My closest friend only punched me in the face once. But he punched my old best friend, who I pushed away, in the face twice, which makes me very lucky.

One way to solve this tariff shit, and by solve I mean in terms of the movie Civil War, is if Nintendo simply decided to no longer release the Switch 2 in the USA.

Oh, this is exactly how I felt. Normally a show I'd serve, but I loved it.

Yep, OK, I'll get one. #NintendoSwitch2

This is a simply astonishing situation, very well reported.

Yesterday, I put 10 quid on my son's Xbox account, using my credit card. At least I thought I did. No sign of it. It was only by reading other people's complaints online that it was suggested it takes 24 hours to show up. Microsoft never mentions it. They must get so many support messages about it.

This is Musk meeting all expectations.

Columbia University sold out to fascists and brutally cracked down on kids whose only sin was opposing genocide. The fascists threw the University under the bus anyway. I feel like there's a lesson in there about complying with fascism.

Holy moly. 1-6. #Arsenal Where are the goals going to come from?

Who put the ball in PSV net? Half our fucking team did! #Arsenal

Odegaard wasn't really in the first half, but that's more like him! #Arsenal

A ref making decisions for the good of the game! Michael Oliver would have had MLS beheaded. But PSV should be furious with themselves that it's 3-0. #Arsenal

We score when we want. We score when we want. #Arsenal

Phew, blimey, that's rollercoaster football right there. Up the Arse! #Arsenal

The Rise of the Nazis is a quite mammoth documentary series on BBC iPlayer, and it's quite an astonishing piece of work. I highly recommend it.

I wonder if FIFA told the US it had to be a dictatorship with a poor human rights record before it was allowed to host the World Cup.
