@tuesdayclub.bsky.social You’re probably scanning social media just before you record to find something to talk about. It’s been a quiet week after all.

If I could though? There’s a teenager who plays for the Arsenal that you might want to find on YouTube. His name is Max Dowman.

That match in Manchester is still a genuine six-pointer

Arsenal need just 13 points from the other 6 remaining games if it finishes level

16 points from 6 games, if we are giving City the max of 85.

That still feels way too stressful.

I didn’t think there could be a goal I’d rewatch more than the Rice free kicks against Real, but I think I’ve seen 360 different angles of this one. It’s a message to the Premier league. We’ve won it this year, and we have the players to dominate it for years to come.

I didn’t think I would ever rewatch a goal more times than either of Rice’s against Real Madrid, but I can’t get enough of Max Dowman’s.

I watched Fingernails, staring Jessie Buckley, a couple of weeks ago and since then I have listened to so much Yazoo. What a singer Alison Moyet is 😍

@tuesdayclub.bsky.social Playing Saka in the fourth round of the cup, against Mansfield Town, when we’re chasing the league and even the Champions League 🤯

If you are tired of smash burgers, Bandits on Leith Walk is serving thick 5oz beef patties and double-wrapped comfort food. We recommend the Bandit Burger and the buffalo-loaded fries. It is a great spot to sit with a beer. Read our full verdict. edinburgh-reviews.co...

It’s Pietro Hincapie, put through by Gabriel Magalhães. Would you believe it? That sums it all up.

As Havertz scores, Gary Neville is telling anyone who will listen that Chelsea have Arsenal just where they want them.

League cup semi. #Arsenal

Betting odds for various English football teams.

Paddy Power are offering odds of 500/1 on Arsenal, Liverpool, Villa, Chelsea or Newcastle to be relegated.

But only 20/1 on Man City to be relegated.

I wonder if Paddy Power knows something about those 115 charges 🤔

Welcome back Gabriel. 1-0 Arsenal

All I know is that he hates poor kids. Normally people who rate kids on the basis of how much their parents earn would be seen as a douche, but he seems to have been getting away with it for years.

The thread about The Mound’s Electric Blanket; keeping buses (and rugby) running in the face of “winter’s fierce onslaught” Once again somehow it is December in Edinburgh and temperatures are forecast to drop below freezing within the week. Relatively speaking our city isn't a particularly cold one and it is even less a snowy one, but when the temperatures do drop the steep gradients of its north-facing streets can prove treacherous. Seventy-odd years ago, the authorities faced a particular headache at The Mound, an accident black-spot where a series of tragedies had been narrowly avoided by good luck alone. Forced to act, they turned to the white heat of technology and installed the first road heating system in the UK; the fabled "electric blanket". In theory it would prove a triumphant success, but it cost three times more to run than the grit it was meant to replace and when the opportune political moment came along it was quietly abandoned - but never forgotten.

I didn’t even know that carabao was a brand of energy drink. I’m not sure that’s a good fit for branding football - I doubt any of the athletes on the pitch would touch the stuff.

Bring back milk!

Arsenal probably need at least one more defender in the January window. This Crystal Palace match could be a chance for Arteta / Berta to do some window shopping. The Palace defenders look decent.

Milk?

How many times have you listened to “For once in my life” by Stevie Wonder today? It’s the Arsenal song of the weekend.

“4-1 in my life, I have Eberechi Eze. Someone I've needed so long.”

@amylawrence.bsky.social I don’t want to influence you much, but I have the weirdest urge to listen to “For Once in My Life” by Stevie Wonder today. 😁

Apple Corpus - which causes the person you’re looking at to be confused and say “I’m sorry, I didn’t quite catch that”.

Hear me out for a second. Maybe increasing tax on rental income was always going to be passed onto tenants and lead to higher rent?

BBC - Learning, Rudolf Bing explains the origins of the Edinburgh Festival Rudolf Bing on how he first began to work on the Edinburgh Festival in 1945.

The Edinburgh Festival was the brainchild of Jewish refugees from Nazi Germany. They wanted to show that there’s a lot more that connects us than separates us. And art is one of those things that transcends borders.

In OpenAI’s new Atlas browser, instead of a 404 page, they should have a “I can’t allow you to do that David” page.

On today’s anniversary of The Battle of Trafalgar, I remember Lady Hamilton and her daughter Horatia Nelson. They deserved better.

Great result at the charity shop. I got a copy of Two Worlds, by David Daiches. It’s the story of a Jewish family in Edinburgh in the 1920s and 30s. His father was Rabbi in the synagogue at Graham Street - which was renamed Keir St some time later.
