Do you see how Americans get so excited about Superbowl? That's how we used to feel about the FA Cup final until the broadcasters and football authorities decimated it.

Watching the Leeds/Forest game, I'm a little disappointed that Forest's new German signing, Luca Netz, is not a goalkeeper.

Watching the Chelsea v West Ham game and mildly amused that a bad cross was poor delivery from Gusto. I'm a simple man.

Read that the Archbishop of Canterbury was 'installed' at St Paul's today. Rather sounds like they were storing her in a cardboard box somewhere until they had time. Hope they've registered her for the warranty.

Here's a thought TNT. When commentators hype the atmosphere at the Leeds Man U game, perhaps they could stop waffling so people could actually hear it.

I always feel that if there aren't at least 2 players, of either side, landing on the stadium roof after wild tackles during a Liverpool v Man U game, then I've been cheated.

Watching an old episode of Digging for Britain, featuring a bit about Mersey Docks. The urge to sing 'and little lambs eat ivy' everytime it's mentioned is becoming overwhelming.

Watching an episode of Digging for Britain with @profaliceroberts.bsky.social. Must be disappointing for archiologists to dig in Leicester and not come back with a king.

Dear BBC. Thanks for the interesting piece on the King's message to the British base in Antarctica on the breakfast show this morning. Just one thing is that I'm pretty sure the aurora you referenced and showed weren't the northern lights.
