I'm very proud to have won the Early Career Evaluator prize from @IpsosUK and @UKevaluation for my work on looking at the impact of sharing ideas and knowledge exchange for students from under-represented backgrounds, higher education, SMEs, the local economy and society!

@ryanmcmenamin Only the cycle of one person doing something, the other disagreeing, doing something else, and back to the start again eight more times. The Johnson and Morley of football cliches

@HannesRead which one of us put forward Beckham at Selhurst Park as a finish? Inquest required. This is why Joint Manager tenures rarely endure

A month late to this. Bold of me to think I’d stand by my opinions after opening it up to you 3. In hindsight I’d argue for any of my points with the exception of Beckham halfway line. Maybe that was 8th-draft induced delusion.

@LancasterCityFC The next @NonLeagueSoc

Last night, Lonsdale College FC were down at the Giant Axe. They are doing Movember this year, so alongside showing us their support they were promoting their fundraising efforts. Always good to see support from the University Teams 👏

#NonLeague #AllocationsDay is your yearly reminder that the inequalities in football mirror the wider economy. Increasingly skewed away from the north and instead towards the south east blog.bham.ac.uk/cityredi/the-g…

Amongst all the #Rovers news and John Eustace leaving, I had my own say on 5 Live 606. Rovers have been let down by our owners time and time again. Just to make things worse, I missed a golden opportunity for an earliest-ever #ForMySins too

@David_Hall1987 I've been to all of Tamworth's FA Cup games this season. £17, £18 and £19 vs Macclesfield, Huddersfield and Burton. I'm cheesed off and I'm just a general football fan living in the town, never mind an actual lifelong supporter

Them prices 🤮

It was interesting listening to Keratin Schaefer discuss the role of PhD students in research. Those broad range of impacts resonated in a report I wrote with @CityREDI around the social and economic impacts of PhDs too #RSAWinter birmingham.ac.uk/schools/busine…

Our @CityREDI and @NCIA_collab research shows 12 different ways a university can make an economic impact. The challenge now is to use that economic impact to support local economic development and address societal issues. Want to work with us on this? Get in touch 👇👇👇
