It’s a midnight kickoff here, and if I see that pivot in the team news, I’m going to bed. Really need to see Gray and Bergvall starting as many games possible now so we have something to invest in

I think the MHD section will be gold

Enjoyed this, Dan. Settling into your rhythm now. Tough to follow Football Cliches, but you’ll find your groove. Hope it continues after the series. There so much granular stuff to get into. Used to love Test Match Sofa back in the day, too

Happy World Linguistics Day from Abu Dhabi!

Pretty much everything that has happened since 2016 was right there. What was coming was obvious, but many either wanted this shit or didn’t care to look.

My initial reply must have looked insane to you! (I’m in the Middle East)

I got that totally wrong. It starts at 6.30am our time. Which is pretty much perfect!

Starts at 2.20am where I am so up with the kids for mid-afternoon and then evening session after the school run

As someone who has been a season ticket holder but who now lives in the Middle East, the supporter experience is wildly easier as a remote fan. I can switch away from it, not think about it. I’m not getting grief from anyone. I worked at Sky in London, so the ‘banter’ was endless.

I know Adam. I’m being lighthearted. I love the pod. I am shocked that people are still on Twitter, but each to their own. You mentioned your surprise that people still used Bluesky on the pod recently. It’s fine.

Get off X. I can’t believe people are still on there

I did! I have hopes that Spurs become the first Premier League team to have a female head coach
