You’re probably right and I’m definitely not calling for that swap but have to say that Mourinho is 10x the manager Dalglish ever was

Sakura à la Manchester

As annoying as that was anyone wanting Howe out should consider there’s nothing in this PIF ‘project’ beyond him & a few tins of paint at the training ground. City transformed their coaching & scouting set up, stadium, training ground & built world class set up in all areas from day 1 #nufc haven’t

This is quite a thing…

Got a camera for my birthday and a little trip to Palma so here’s the outcome…

Wonder why Schär never gets much of a mention when pundits discussing what’s missing at the moment. Convinced his long passes (and range of forward passing generally) were key to our counter attacking threat and Eddie’s system working. #nufc

Inspired by that artist who patented the darkest ever colour I’m thinking of registering the darkest ever noise.
I call it “ #nufc podcast after a defeat” ©️

How did we end up with that when Juve managed this…?!

Spotted this 50s bus from my home town on facebook. Literally the bus I got to secondary school from new estate on edge of town c1992. Pulled back into use from a museum for a subsidised route. And yes of course I got bullied about it. For anyone planning a new town please think of the children..!

In a different firm a senior person (who I’ll leave as anonymous) did once talk to our team about the consultancy opportunity posed by conflict in Ukraine. Still can’t quite believe it happened as I type this out

More legible but no more believable here

The term masterplan has been misused almost to the point of redundancy but this sickening example really is something else

So just suffer? Shameful way to handle such an important issue

Newcastle - an absolute stunner whatever the weather

Think I overpaid - it was only £1.50 new!

“Since…1914, every single change in the English landscape has either uglified it or destroyed its meaning, or both” 😳

The things you can pick up in vintage shops…
‘The Making of the English Landscape’ (£5 bargain) giving a fascinating insight into the shape of the places (rural and urban) that we take as natural or given.

Trying out a new toy - got a camera as an early birthday present to myself

Up for the cup. Never in doubt 😬

I’ve decided it’s better to have a goalkeeper who is not comfortable on the ball so that we don’t keep passing back to them all the time #nufc

Is he talking about the drinking fountains?

Alongside the balance of our national approach to infrastructure spending chat gpt has a bit of a way to go as a reliable source…

Gallowgate still like that when I started going. Just thinking of the toilets makes me shudder. Leaning against the concrete barriers wasn’t advised as people seemed to just use them instead 🤢

These aren’t helpful subtitles @netflix.com 🤌

Can remember if I did or not but that name immediately makes me think of Kate by Ben Folds

Some shots of the recent @academyofurbanism.bsky.social 20th anniversary party at the Rum Warehouse in Wapping. A great event and significant milestone for the Academy. Really enjoyed catching up with and meeting so many fellow academicians and young urbanists
