Nothing makes you feel ancient like Sick Boy playing John Major. The years disappear in a blink

It’s 17 years since Man City boss Stuart Pearce, with his team needing a goal to qualify for Europe, had a moment of inspiration:
“Bollocks to this. We’ll stick Big David James up top and get it in the mixer...”

🧵 It's March 3 and Russian state broadcaster RT is crumbling - banned by the EU, under investigation by Ofcom, blocked by YouTube and failing to contain an employee exodus.
Amid the storm, RT editor Margarita Simonyan sends UK staff a truly wild email...

This is from 2013. The scandal was obvious back then to most right-minded people but not deluded Chelsea fans who kept chanting the name of #Abramovich from the stands (and, shamefully, still do)
This piece on #Abramovich at Chelsea by @matthewsyed from 2013 is an incredible watch & searingly insightful as to why he ever bought the club. teapaw.org/J_J_WILSON1/status/149…

Before you asked this question
1️⃣ Have you explained the service would fundamentally change if it was funded by subscription?
2️⃣ Have you explained the damage it would do to ITV, C4 and others’ programmes if the BBC was funded by advertising?
How do Britons think the BBC should be funded?
Advertising or subscriptions: 50%
The BBC licence fee: 18%
The Government's tax revenue: 15%
Don't know: 12%

So, after the suitcase of booze, the wine & cheese, the BYOB invite, the basement DJ set, the laughter at apparent rule breaking, the anguish of those who lost loved ones on Zoom, the apology to the Queen and Parliament ... it's the BBC that will take the fall for partygate?

I’ve donated and hope others will to. A family broken after their young daughter, Dilan, took her own life near Blackheath Standard. The least we can do is help the family to pay for her funeral. RIP
Walk past a shrine to Dilan each day as I walk to work over the A2.
I do hope the target is reached.
Please RT @GreenwichNWatch @AldeburghFearon @BlackheathSoc @mlo_lo
RIP

I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since Gary Speed’s death.
I hope this helps someone…
