Why I prefer Christmas Eve to Christmas Day. I like to repost this on Christmas Eve. Have a great day everyone; hold your loved ones close. bbc.co.uk/news/stories-4…

@CGoreham @BobRutler Robbie Earle when he was at Port Vale. Was supposed to be part of a double signing alongside Darren Beckford.

For the next Scrimmage Daily @BobRutler and I want to discuss ‘The Norwich City Players That Never Were.’ Who can you remember #ncfc being constantly linked with but never actually signing? Ahead of Hull away - Dean Windass must be top of that list?

@ncfcnumbers @CGoreham Here you go - Ullathorne #11 that day. Bowen #3. Ullathorne far better left back than winger. Shame we never saw the best of him. dailymotion.com/video/x6hpn1b

@ncfcnumbers @CGoreham Ullathorne was likely playing left wing at that point.

The two different #ncfc LBs scoring Q posed by @CGoreham… Fernando Derveld & Darren Kenton (v Grimsby, 2000) and Rob Ullathorne & Mark Bowen (v Notts Co, 1991) is the closest I can find in the last 40 years. But don’t think Kenton/Bowen would’ve been playing LB at that point!

@CGoreham I have no memory of him being part of that Inter team. Wow - I saw Schillaci at Carra.

Sad news about Toto Schillaci. Wonderful memories of Italia 90. He also might hold the record for shortest Carrow Road appearance of all time. Came on, tied his laces, full-time. #ncfc.

#lcdsoundsystem during All My Friends tonight on the farm. Magical.

A huge well done to .@laurenlaverne, .@BBC6Music Music for winning the 2024 Radio Show Of The Year at the #MusicWeekAwards

@stuartdredge All the times!

@carlgracie Want!

@garydbales you need this!

It's just been announced that Glastonbury Festival's creator Michael Eavis has been awarded a knighthood in the New Year Honours list, for services to music and charity. Read a new interview with Sir Michael over on the Glastonbury website now!

As brilliant as it sounds. Two hours of Iggy and Tom Waits playing records to each other. bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…

This will be a treat of a listen 📷 @tomwaits is going to co-host an Iggy Confidential episode with @IggyPop! Echoing their famous joint appearance in Jim Jarmusch’s ‘Coffee and Cigarettes’, the two-hour programme will see the pair pump the Confidential Jukebox full of nickels and dimes and spin some of their favourite tracks to one another. Listen to Iggy Confidential on Sunday 3rd December from 4pm (UK Time) on @bbcsounds

Such a treat to see them perform like this. Watch the whole thing on @BBCiPlayer.

I chatted with Christopher Nolan about Oppenheimer last week - a film I think is superb cinematically but also important intellectually - I’ve been fascinated by Oppenheimer, particularly his post-war thought, for a long time. esquire.com/uk/culture/fil…

When I thought the drone rising behind the Pyramid stage was the best Glastonbury footage I’ve ever seen, I was wrong. This is quite the perspective… #Glastonbury #Glasto @bbcglasto @glastonbury @emilyeavis

@lucymadge @adam_crowther @glastonbury @bbcglasto @bbcsomerset @BBCBristol @GlastoLive Oh that's amazing.

@adam_crowther @glastonbury @bbcglasto @bbcsomerset @BBCBristol @GlastoLive @garydbales I wish we'd stumbled across Lola's attempt instead!

This is 86-year-old Lola from Weymouth. She’s only missed two @glastonbury Festivals since 1970 and comes every year “because of all the lovely people here”. She came this year with her carer & cried tears of joy after doing the Greenpeace drop slide #glastonbury2023 #Glastonbury

@stuartdredge @jodythompson Alas no PM, but @TheHighPoints band were a massively worthy substitute (genuinely really good).
