factually accurate take - football is a #FunnyOldGame.

De Zerbi going to Spurs seems to be going down as well with their fans as Farage popping up at Portaloo Road for lunch & snaps went down with Ipswich fans 🤭

He may have just score a worldie but c’mon. We all know Dan #James is a ver-ry mediocre footballer, yes? He’s looked it all night until *that moment*.

Incredible, electrifying burst. 1-0 #Wales.

After a strong coffee, my neurons have fired up sufficiently to compose an 'Ode To Big Phil' on his birthday.

BTW:
That's now *13* league games in a row that #NCFC have not conceded a goal in the 2nd half of a game. 🥳
I have no idea what the record is but that has to be pretty fucking close to it.

You can almost smell the collective sense of fear & anxiety from Spurs fans around the country this morning as their brave boys head to Anfield..

It was at this exact point last night that I'd convinced myself that #NCFC were getting nothing from the game vs Sheff Utd.
Just going to be one of those nights we don't score and turn a deficit into a win.

If Sargent hadn't withdrawn his services for #NCFC and pushed for a transfer, Jovon Makama would probably not have started many games/scored goals & Mo Toure would probably still be playing in Denmark.
The club has 2 exciting young strikers & £20M.
Football works in mysterious ways.

It's odd how Coventry seems to be Boro's bogey side and yet #NCFC are Coventry's bogey side.

There's a Wagner playing for Birmingham against Farke's Leeds and also a Stansfield - one of the first #NCFC managers was Bert Stansfield.

*1 year* today.
#NCFC drew 1-1 at home to Derby after conceding a 92nd min. penalty.
Turning point for Johannes Thorup at the club.
Wheels seemed to get wobblier after that.
The Canaries only won 3 of the remaining 15 games.

Thorup seemed in control of things at #NCFC on 31/1/2025. No major cracks on display.
Later today he takes charge of his 1st game for @skrapid.bsky.social in the QF of the Austrian Cup.

The previous #NCFC manager starts his new job (1 league below) with two 1-0 home league wins after having overseen 7/7 home defeats with the Canaries and just 1 clean sheet in 15 league games.

Ever since Josh Sargent sent that text to Clement, #NCFC have won 4/4, scored 14 and conceded 2.

November 25: Manning sacked at #NCFC after a 2-1 home defeat to Leicester.
January 26: Leicester manager sacked after a 2-1 home defeat.
Football symmetry.

Southampton vs Newcastle would be an intriguing match up between Welington & Gordon.

Just to clarify a misconception that football fans constantly repeat;
In fact, *the game has not gone*.
It's still here and will carry on as usual.
Thanks.

This summer's WC finals in the US increasingly has the vibes of the 1936 Olympics in Berlin under an increasingly tyrannical leader using it politicise the event to convey (white) power & might to a world being put in increasing danger.
Let's hope things turn out better than the 1930s.

One year ago today, #NCFC got a late equaliser at home to QPR (won't mention who scored it) and finished the year in 12th place on 30 points (7 wins/8 defeats).
If the lads can get a win tonight, we'll be 'just' 6 points off that with just 1 less win than at the same stage last season.

Imagine supporting a football club that hasn't lost 4 games in a row since 1978.
The level of entitlement Celtic (and Rangers) fans have is off the flipping scale.

Chris Sutton is having a topsy-turvy season.

Would point out that #NCFC have won as many points and scored more goals than runaway league leaders Coventry in the last 2 games. 🥳

Blackburn having 2 home games abandoned due to bad weather in 1 half of a season is downright bizarre.
And they were 1-0 up in both 😆
Is this a tangible effect of climate change in the area?

After a painful 13 game winless run, #NCFC are now are on a joyful 1 game winning/unbeaten run. 😊
