For some reason, I never uploaded it here but this is my showreel from a couple of months ago!
Always looking for broadcasting work in TV or radio or social馃憞 #journalism #showreel
The Burnley squad having such a vast mix of profiles makes it so hard to play with a front-foot style. There are square pegs in round holes & round pegs in square holes with no respite in goal as neither keeper cuts the mustard. Feel for Nicky Hayen; it's a mess. #twitterclarets
Sadly, for Nicky Hayen, a squad without a clear set of profiles means that implementing his desires style consistently is going to be pretty tough and, at the moment, it's looking nigh-on impossible. Disarray like this lends itself far better to pragmatistists. #twitterclarets
Something beautiful about Jamie Vardy, the ultimate wind-up merchant, rolling back the years to fire Burnley ahead just before his 40th birthday. It鈥檚 like a match made in Heaven! #twitterclarets
Burnley鈥檚 current state is a sound reminder of how good 22-23 Vincent Kompany was. 16 players came in. 13 players left. Many of the players that came in were new to English football.
101 points and exhilarating football despite the summer chaos.

Feel for Nicky Hayen. Reminds me a bit of when Ruben Selles replaced Chris Wilder at Sheffield United. He went after 6 games. Derby game make or break.
If it鈥檚 break, I genuinely think Burnley should consider going back to Sean Dyche. Order amid the chaos. #twitterclarets
A solid display from Max Weiss yesterday. Some good saves, good claims, and solid short distribution.
Clear weakness is in mid-to-long distribution, which isn't very accurate. Trafford had this issue w Bolton.
Easy fix is for CBs/CDM to give him short options. #twitterclarets
Weiss criticism has been OTT. Comparisons with Trafford, Pope, Heaton don't help, but Weiss would be less exposed with a more secure defensive unit. No 'howlers' for any goals that have gone in. One or two he 'could've done better' with. Still learning... #twitterclarets
Burnley fans applauding at the end of that. Team showed moments of good play in the first half and grit in the second half.
Look miles off a team challenging for promotion looked but it was a competitive effort; Wrexham are a good Championship team. #twitterclarets
Feel like Nicky Hayen is trying to pick players who will graft.
That means sacrificing technically good players who won't and playing some more technically limited players who will.
It's all he can do in the short-term really; he needs the international break. #twitterclarets
Burnley probably fortunate to be ahead but the team looked alright. Alleyne and Raghouber looking strong as the double-pivot. Amdouni rusty but clinical. Ramazani sharp on the ball and working hard off it. Looks like the team are trying. #twitterclarets
Jamie Vardy on a free is a good signing for Burnley. An experienced, wily goalscorer and a big dressing room character. Can make an impact on and off the pitch.
Won't fit issues with the tactical setup or the overriding mood of disharmony but it's a step forward #twitterclarets
Genuinely perplexed. Two FTs. TC Haaland. Which two to bring in!? #FPL
Anyone think Sean Dyche is trading management for media personality? Mega job with Burnley, underrated at Everton, but then underwhelmed at Forest with higher level players.
I think he knows he may have already peaked and is now pushing for a different career. #twitterclarets
Hannibal struggling in the deeper role. He can do it; fans saw it last year. Technically fantastic player. But he's miles off it atm. Probably a combo of form & seeing almost every other player of value depart. Think playing him as the '10' lessens the burden #twitterclarets
In the deeper role, especially alongside a young Raghouber, expectation on Hannibal is big. He has to read the game, be positionally disciplined, and control the tempo of the game. In the '10', more freedom and less burden of lifting up the team. #twitterclarets
