NEW BRIGHTON It’s time to stand up and be counted As we did in the club’s darkest hour To open our lungs up and bellow To the ‘Big Six’ and corporate power We’re an inclusive, progressive city To the world’s talent, an open door. We’re clever, flamboyant and witty And we’re not a ‘small...

Yes.

‘A minimal level of service?’ OK. Then you give us one too. Enough nurses, beds, teachers and doctors. No standing in a food bank queue. Warm homes with proper insulation. Cheap buses, affordable trains. Child care which befits a rich nation And papers which don’t rot our brains. We had most of...

One you might find a bit surprising: Lee Steele. When he was injured he came into the PA box at Withdean once and my Northwich wife Robina was there with me. We had a long chat about his time at Northwich Vics (sadly Archered: now 1874 Northwich) and he was really lovely.

God this struck a chord. Well done for having the courage to get checked out and for posting this. It is so important to go to the doctor pronto. Best of luck - here's mine. Got the all clear from bladder cancer middle of last year. After many, many, many flexible cystoscopies! CANDID CAMERA...

As ever I'm trying to organise gigs around this nonsense.....

Most agents are filth, in music as in football. Believe me. DIY!

Is that an actual name for a racehorse? I think it should be the name for someone's pet slug. :)

ACROPHILIA Our CEO's an OBE For work at BHAFC PR now out ASAP By DM, Twitter and FB I'm now ITK BAE (though that won't last long obviously!) He's brilliant - so well done PB Though such BS is not 4 me :)

I am not talking rubbish. You most certainly can provide social services and they will return. I am simply on the opposite side to you, and I am on the right side of history. The Britannia Unchained budget was the last spasm of laisser-faire. The pendulum is swinging back: predatory capitalism...

No, Royal Mail IS NOT ‘just another delivery company’. Posties are the pillar boxes of their communities: not just faceless ciphers delivering packages but the eyes and ears of the streets they walk, checking on the elderly and vulnerable, brightening up the day for the lonely. They fulfil a...

The race to the bottom is such a sad, demeaning spectacle. I grew up with it. Older relatives who fawned over the wealthy and privileged and were proud of their own subservience. It breaks my heart that it is still a thing today. ‘I grew up in a lake of maggot-ridden concentrated sulphuric acid...

Yes. Co-ordinate all strikes. Tories wasted hundreds of millions of pounds on poor quality PPE "outsourced' to their friends. The 'Britannia Unchained' budget (lauded by their Daily Mail sycophants as 'at last, a real Tory budget') cost the taxpayer £40 billion - with no apology from the Mail...

Love it :)

An economic system where bankers' bonuses are not restricted, but nurses' wages are, is utterly without value and worthy only of the dustbin of history.

I wrote this poem at the beginning of the World Cup finals in Qatar. Seems fitting to share it again today as it comes to an end. If you have watched and enjoyed, no criticism from me. Your choice. We didn’t ask for this. It’s just how I feel. I’ve had a wonderful few weeks glorying in the...

RAIL STRIKES EXPLAINED A public information post: since you won’t see this in our wonderful ‘free press’, please share with anyone blaming the RMT. The Rail Delivery Group, representing the train franchising companies with whom the RMT are theoretically negotiating, have absolutely no material...

That is completely and utterly ridiculous and totally indefensible.

A lovely man who did so much for the club.
