Goosebumps…. Always! 💚
GOOSEBUMPS! 🤯 @HibernianFC's players are serenaded by their supporters with a spine-tingling rendition of "Sunshine on Leith" after their Edinburgh Derby triumph 🙌 #PremierSportsCup

Well if that does turn out to be the last time I see Pulp live what a way to go! With Jarvis on sparkling form it was a celebratory night at at Wythenshawe park - all that money they spent to stop the rain for the evening was well worth it in the end. #Pulp

Surprised my 16yo Pulp fan with this one as a post-GCSE treat! What a night we had!! Pulp were amazing, Self Esteem a great support act too. And the rain held off!!

Saw this little guy in Next this morning….. it’s like they already predicted the winner of the SPFL! On the other hand as a Hibs fan, I had to buy him as he’s wearing the right colours! (We can but dream of another trophy)

It’s absolutely brilliant to see a team outside the old firm with a chance to win the league, especially an Edinburgh team….but a tiny part of me, a 🥬💚 part of me, would love this bus to stay in the garage! Well done Hearts on a great season - what a finale in store today!

I know Villa listen to supporters generally after a few years of a strained relationship as the club grows and evolves into a fit for purpose 21st century club. So I'd hope that the club would consider opening Villa Park, big screen, music and celebrate the club on the day of the Final. Get a couple of local bands, a rousing MC, charge £10 with a free drink or two, and make Villans who can't go to Istanbul feel involved. It's their day too. Aged 11 i wouldn't have been able to afford to go to Rotterdam but I could have gone to VP and been very excited indeed. Lots of families who already go to games and are financially stretched deserve to feel the magic, and those kids are the future of our club. Some fireworks, music, pop and crisps for a quid, a beer for the same and all of a sudden we make the most important people at our club who can't go to Istanbul, feel a part of the pride. Hope @AVFCOfficial gives it a little thought, I'm seeing a huge appetite for it on here.

Laufey is phenomenal. If you’ve not listened to her Grammy award winning album, you really should. And she’s just as incredible live too.

The irony of people attacking free breakfast clubs because ‘parents should work hard to feed their kids,’ when parents use these so they can drop their kids off earlier and then … you guessed it … go to work at the time required by their employer in order to feed their kids.
