Tickets for the Nicky Little testimonial match, brought to you by Clydebank Co-op are available now! We will take on Partick Thistle on Sunday 26th July to celebrate Nicky’s decade long service to the Bankies. What a turnout our skipper deserves 👏

Huge gamble by Sarwar which I believe will backfire. I suspect Sarwar will be gone before Starmer.

2024 has been a brilliant year for me, with so many personal milestones and fantastic events. The main highlight however was the publication of my book and the tremendous reception it has received so far. Thank you to everyone and happy reading in 2025!

Sitting down to start this - written by my wee brother @RedFlagBankie available via all good book shops. He is a history teacher & this is his passion, so it should be good!

As the new football season starts, one thing that really annoys me is people assuming everyone who supports a club has the same political views as them. You are together because of the club you support, not the political party or cause.

Natalie Elphicke tried defecting to me first but I said no. I’m taking the trash out, not in. #PMQs

Labour should have made Natalie Elphicke go and live on the Bibby Stockholm while they procesed her application.
