It only took one look to know that was a red card for Bentancur. Craig Pawson won't have an easier decision all season and he managed to get it wrong.

From memory I think Angry Al of AWOL had founded Cheers. I think that supporters club stuff there is a prime example of why the Brake Club broke away to do their own thing🤣
Pretty sure I never read the Thistle. I think that was the Supporters Club fanzine and I was loyal to the Brake Club 🤣 There were some excellent Scottish fanzines in general at that time.
The mention of a Meadowbank Thistle fanzine has reminded me of AWOL, the Brake Club's fanzine. The best football fanzine ever...until the fanzine I was part of came out anyway🤣
Busy weekend away so today it's a quick #FanzineCoveroftheDay as we dip into issue 1 of Mr Bismarck’s Electric Pickelhauße from John Peel's favourite Scottish team, Meadowbank Thistle.
Almost disaster from the jaws of victory, bored of writing about our red cards, some stuff about the system and why an apparently favourable draw is anything but for me.

A lesson in how to almost pull disaster from the jaws of victory.

Quite like this. It's like being dropped in to the middle of an 80's Peel session.

day 30: free choice: The Cords - Fabulist
Why not, once again my favourite song of the year so far.
The album of these scottish sisters is great as well.

In a word, no. It's not a bad thing, it's a disastrous thing 🤣
Why criticism of Tosin and Chalobah was unjustified and why it feels like being taken back in time almost 25 years.

Really good to see Lime Garden and Prima Queen highlighted among Simon's favourites of the weekend here. Saw them both on the same bill a couple of years ago and they were really good. Both bands worth checking out.

Salli, the lead singer and lyricist for this, was literally one of the sweetest people you could ever wish to meet, so where this inner rage came from, I have no idea 🤣

59 years today the Aberfan disaster occurred. A tragedy still deeply felt among the people of Wales. 116 children and 28 adults died that day. Never forgotten. RIP
I was out to lunch yesterday and was speaking to someone who used to hate Trump. Now though, she defends him and thinks he has a good sense of humour. What's happened? Well she's watched an increasing amount of GB News and Fox News in recent years. Those networks are an absolute cancer on society.
Forest away. Some thoughts on Palmer's injury, another red card and some sympathy for an ex Tottenham manager. I must be going soft!

The Barry Horns. Name inspired by the former Welsh midfielder.
This is excellent. I've only ever been to 2 stadium shows. One of those was great because it was the Manics and one was awful because it was the Stereophonics 🤣 So much good stuff out there right now that there's no need to pay such stupid prices for stadiums.

The best gig I ever saw cost £4. Spiralling concert prices are a cultural disaster | John Harris
Tickets for big tours have vastly outstripped inflation, while smaller artists and venues struggle. The magic is in danger of being snuffed out entirely, says Guardian columnist John Harris

It's taken some doing for Chelsea not to have got a goal in that half.
