Kylie joined Nick Cave onstage in Preston Park at the weekend. This is the second time I’ve been lucky enough to see them perform together. Both times it’s made me cry. #kylieminogue #nickcave

So many ex-bhafc players at the World Cup. You can actually put together a decent team, albeit with two left backs: Ryan Cucurella Van Hecke Burn Estupinan Caicedo Mac Allister Trossard Adingra Undav Gyokeres Subs: Ostigard Locardia Jahanbakhsh Have I forgotten anyone? #bhafc

Today I celebrated signing off the final proofs of my debut book about #bhafc. Long Way Together comes out three months today. It’s all very exciting and I’m really proud to see years of hard work coming to fruition. You can pre-order here. It’s well good I promise: www.amazon.co.uk/Long-Way-Tog...
My first time watching #bhafc at Wembley in 91 vs my most recent visit at the weekend. Different decades, same outcome 😢. You can read all about my journey with the Albion in my debut book. It’s well good, I promise. You can pre-order here or at any decent bookshop: www.amazon.co.uk/Long-Way-Tog...
Not the result we wanted, but a performance and cup run to be proud of. Brilliant support from the Albion fans at Wembley too. 👏🏻 🔵⚪️ #bhafc
Woke up this morning absolutely buzzing, because I’m going to see #bhafc women in the FA Cup Final at Wembley today. 🔵⚪️🏆 Haven’t been this excited about a match for ages. Hands up if you’re also going to Wembley today. ✋🏼

We didn’t do it in style today and it was a nervy wait for the Brentford game to end but the league table doesn’t lie and we deserve to be in Europe! I’m really excited about the Conference League as it’s a decent chance to win a trophy. Or, to put it more simply… Europe again, ole ole! 🇪🇺 #bhafc
It’s going to be one of those “as it stands…” afternoons isn’t it? But I’m still bracing myself for the Sky pundits and commentator caring far more about whether a Man Utd player gets an assist than about our European hopes. #bhafc
Been waiting ten years to ming with these mingers. Last night in Brixton was everything I could have hoped for. Back there tonight to do it all again 😍 #superfurryanimals
My debut book comes out this year. It’s all about #bhafc. If you like the look of the synopsis (pictured below), I promise you’ll enjoy the book! You can preorder it here (or from any half-decent book shop): www.amazon.co.uk/Long-Way-Tog...
Four months today is publication day for this guy! My debut nonfiction book, Long Way Together, is out on September 14th. It’s about my 40-year journey with #bhafc as a ball boy, staff member, newspaper columnist and, of course, fan. You can pre-order it here: www.amazon.co.uk/Long-Way-Tog...
The only good news after that injury-time disaster is that other results didn’t go too terribly for us today and that Sunderland and Chelsea play each other on the last day of the season, so they can’t both catch us. A wasted opportunity, yes, but it could’ve been much worse. #bhafc
