Keith Hickling

@FevsFootball He was impressive in the game at Ashton Gate last season

Brian de Keersmaecker 🇧🇪 Oxford U 🟡⚫️🟡 #bristolcity you’d imagine if Bird and / or Knight are off this window, that BDK would be under consideration. Looks like he is on several clubs’ radar, and along with Mills missing with an illness last night (cough, cough!)

@andclements @JamesSaintJames @patmurphybbc There’s a danger of rewriting history just because Rooney’s made a good impression as a pundit. Blues were in the playoffs under Eustace with all the resources of the new American owners behind them. They then appointed Rooney who led them down the table to the bottom 3

@keith_hickling @JamesSaintJames @patmurphybbc Two tricky jobs there, Blues have been poor and not far off a revolving door. Plymouth is a different kettle of fish too, a restrictive one but not one for a big name I’d say.

With one comment Wayne Rooney’s entered the upper echelon of football pundits. Good for him. Very popular with local reporters who covered his initial attempts at management. Open & honest. Now one of those u expect to say something surprising in the studio. A star this WCup.

@JamesSaintJames @patmurphybbc I was thinking more of Birmingham in particular and also Plymouth. He had Rosenoir supporting him at Derby

@keith_hickling @patmurphybbc Not true. He is still highly regarded at Derby, where he held the club together, practically single-handed, during administration. He even paid for some expenses out of his own pocket. His press conferences were always interesting and insightful, and his punditry is similar.

@JDNalton Agree that he should have tried that as a first option. But Tuchel had given himself limited alternatives in central midfield by only taking Henderson (who even without the injury was probably never going to play) and Mainoo (who he seems not to trust)

Agree England started to retreat before subs due to fatigue. I think the remedy should have been to bring on fresher players in the same system, rather than move to a back 5 which encouraged an even deeper line and invited Argentina on even more, making a bad situation worse.

Followed by a superb 3 days in the Lake District

Really enjoyable family break in the Yorkshire Dales - rainy nights and fine days

July highlights - completing the Ham & Lyme 50k ultramarathon and a fantastic family holiday in the Lake District

My daughter Lucy’s wedding on Saturday. A truly joyous day that will live forever in the memory

@JoBriggsTweets Thanks Jo - yes going to take a break and ease back into running in a couple of weeks time x

@keith_hickling Wow! Well done Keith - I’m exhausted just looking at these photos!! Hope you’re having a well deserved rest now. Love to all xx

Finishing the London Marathon on Sunday. Was struggling in the heat at halfway so took it easy and made sure I enjoyed the experience on a glorious Spring day. No more road marathons for me - back to the trails and shorter distances on the road

Jubilee Stone Backwell - 11am Remembrance Sunday “Move him into the sun Gently its touch awoke him once ….If anything might rouse him now The kind old sun will know” from “Futility” Wilfred Owen

@ewanc1 @ecamss Well done - superb achievement !

Good to run with @ecamss at my 350th parkrun , an arbitrary milestone as they say. #threebrooks #loveparkrun

My 150th Parkrun last Saturday. No milestone T-shirt for this number, but all the joy of running on a fine, sunny morning

Monday thoughts... 💭 You're on a desert island and can only take one Comedy, one Tragedy and one History with you. Which are you choosing?

Great day out in the Quantocks with the lad. One of my favourite places to walk, particularly on a fine, clear day. “Upon smooth Quantock’s airy ridge we roved, unchecked…” Wordsworth

@tomspeight Yes it was an excellent way to spend a few days. I think I was walking it in the opposite direction to everyone else ! I started at Sedbergh so missed out the section from Windermere

@keith_hickling i walked it a couple of years ago the other way round - looks like you've had the best time !

A superb day walking down Wharfedale from Buckden to Burnsall. Sometimes beside and sometimes high above the river

Final day of walking on the Dales Way from Burnsall to Ilkley, passing through the Bolton Abbey Estate

@tomspeight Yes that’s right. Finishing at Ilkley today - where one of my daughters lives

@keith_hickling The Dales Way ?
