    Izzy Jones

    Delighted for him. Unplayable at times, and i celebrated that tackle on their break like a goal. Absolutely vital performance from him today (y)

    Sam Greenwood

    i was a bit concerned he'd get sent off. he's a bit chewy, and that's a good thing, but i was wincing a few times, watching him chase back and try to nick the ball from behind(!). Played well, deserved his goal, and here's hoping he goes from strength to strength!

    Premier League

    I have to admit i had mixed feelings about it. After our run to the playoffs i really wanted us to finish the job, but yeah it's tough to watch when youre getting beat every week. I also enjoy the lack of VAR in the championship

    It's been a while... Almost 4 years I think... But finally the time has come to make what should have been a bi-yearly 2000km xmas trip back home. Obviously a lot can change in 4 years, especially with all that's been going on, but I was hoping to get some recommendations for places to eat...

    What improved your quality of life, so much, you wish you did it sooner?

    Going back to uni and moving to a foreign country. Was stuck in a rut for a few years, living in manchester, with a depressing job, and thought going back to uni would be a decent idea. Turns out it was one of the best ideas i ever had. Moving abroad is probably the very best decision i ever...

    Aguero leaving Citeh

    You have to say, he's been one of the best big-money big-name signings of the last 20 years. He's scored the goals, never really caused a fuss - just settled into what must have been a very different environment to what he was used to, and stayed for years. I know people will say that money...

    I honestly think that was one of worst games of football I’ve ever seen

    it was a terrible game, but weirdly watchable! Found myself in a bit of a trance watching it, and actually enjoyed the throwback nature of the pitch and playing styles

    The abuse that Bettinelli has been getting

    He hasn't looked any better than Stojanovic or Pears, so I can't understand the signing. I also can't understand personal abuse being leveled out at footballers, but there we go. He's no Big Aussie, but he's also no Andy Dibble... Sometimes as a keeper you just need the ball to hit you. It...

    When has music played the biggest part in your life?

    It's always played a big part really. From framing my teenage years to providing a soundtrack to some of the most important decisions a few years down the line. I guess most recently it gave me the inspiration and courage to move to a different country, which proved to be a pretty inspired...

    Favourite Britt memories

    Although I thought he'd be better than he is, and it's difficult to know what his strengths are as a lone front man, it's fairly obvious we have never found a way to get the best out of him. That said, he's scored an ok amount of goals and isn't the worst player we've ever had (faint praise)...

    When's your first gig of the year due to be?

    Hopefully.... HOPEFULLY - Highfield Festival, Leipzig 13-15 August this year Bring Me The Horizon being the major highlight for me. After seeing them in Provinssi Festival (Finland) in 19 i've been waiting for an excuse... As a bonus we can fly from our local airport to Berlin (assuming normal...

    A Handy Conspiracy Chart

    You're right in thinking that Helsinki doesnt represent the rest of finland! It's huge compared to everywhere else. I live in Lappeenranta (hence the avatar), which is in south karelia next to the russian border. It's a great place to live, but despite it being the regional capital, there are...
