Rather encouraged that it's only September 12th, but @ipswichtown.bsky.social have already won half as many Premier League games as they did during the whole of our last season there two years ago #itfc� #COYB

Popping down to Roots Hall in a bit for a spot of Friday night football, as @southendunited.bsky.social take on @khfcofficial.bsky.social in the National League.

The Shrimpers have made an excellent start to the season under their new boss Kieron Dyer, winning all 3 of their opening matches (1/2)

Morning @mrjamesob.bsky.social. the song Rock The Boat was by the Hues Corporation (and later covered by a chap called Forrest), not George McCrae. I think someone confused it with Rock Your Baby.

Yours, a sad music anorak.

Great show BTW 👍

These algorithms.

All I did was like a Facebook post from a pie & mash shop in Leytonstone, as the food on offer looked good.

Now my FB timeline is full of videos from various P&M shops, including one where some chap ordered a triple portion for his lunch. Greedy bugger 🤣

Phoenix Sport is coming from our brand new studios at Thorndon Pavilion for the first time today, and is in the capable hands of Ian Cash between 3 and 6pm on @phoenixfm.com

All being well I'll be back a couple of Saturdays from now

This.

Anything that will benefit the working class or people on low incomes that Burnham does will be bashed by the right-wing media (I.e. most of it) who will shout 'how is he going to pay for this?'

Well hopefully by making your tax-dodging proprietors pay for it for once

'He still has a job!'

The papers are calling Andy Burnham a 'financial arsonist'; should we listen?

@mrjamesob.bsky.social checks their track record.

When I went in to do Phoenix Sport on Saturday 30th May, little did I know it would be my last time presenting at the Brentwood Centre after more than six years!

An unforeseen health Issue has kept me off air since, but all being well I'll be back next month (1/2)
Big day for Phoenix FM today. We are leaving The Brentwood Centre - our home of over 14 years - and moving our studio to Thorndon Country Park. Wish us luck!
