Pompey fan, SurreyCC member. Petrol/electric head. Engineer (understands data) and family man who likes dogs, art, history books, cycling, motorsport, aeroplanes, tanks and ornithology. So that’s categorised me nicely. All views my own. Also Spudboy

I deleted X and moved here this week. My interests, amongst other things, are science and engineering, football (Portsmouth FC) , cricket , motorsports, comedy, ‘some’ politics and generally just learning stuff and remembering things I have forgotten about.
Great effort by #Pompey considering who’s available. Adams, Ogilvie, Swanson, Schmid and Devlin immense. Impressed by Alli too, quick, gets stuck in, covers back and has end product evidenced in the first two games. We may not spend much but look what the other lot have done with their cash.

How dare the Coward in the White House undermine the bravery and sacrifice of our British troops.

Reform and Nigel Farage should be ashamed to associate themselves with him.

Good performance #Pompey a valuable point and some of the bench got a run out too. Much better result than the last time there.

Very poor goal to concede #Pompey

Very impressed with Adams. Athletic and committed and plays with some passion. Good defence at corners as well #Pompey

Reform leader Nigel Farage committed 17 breaches of Parliamentary Standards by late-registering payments from GB News, Direct Bullion, Baron App/others totaling £384,000

He got no punishment

Imagine how you would be punished if your tax returns on £384,000 were 120 days late

Donald Trump threatens 10% tariffs on UK and Nigel Farage who has positioned himself as the president's best mate in Britain drops out of a much promoted interview on the BBC.

Strange.

Almost like the two things are connected.

Why on earth do we not have a mid season break clause in the deal with Swansea for Bianchini? Looks like he will taking up a slot for the rest of the season we can ill afford. #Pompey Great business for Swansea offloading some rubbish.

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.

The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

This is Oakley. He has an injury that requires physical therapy and at-home massages. Luckily, his cat sibling River has been training his whole life for this. 14/10 for both

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

Looks like Thomas Frank is jinxed #COYS
The (fast start, fumbling finish) triple take: Wolves 104, Spurs 103

1. In his first start of 2026, Wemby made his presence felt early in a dominant 1Q

2. But that fourth quarter though. Yeesh.

3. Spurs' reeling guard trio has officially hit the dog days

Nigel Farage here nailing Nadhim Zahawi's absence of principles.
So, turns out Nigel Farage was correct all along, when he said “I thought Zahawi had principles. Tonight we learn he's just about climbing that greasy pole, as so many of them are”?

Now Ogilvie is back how about playing Zak at RB and moving Terry Devlin into midfield? It’s the position we bought him for and he would add some energy, resistance and bite? He can also shoot too! @pn-neil-allen.bsky.social @mrandrewmoon.bsky.social #Pompey
