I'm usually against speculating on stuff like this cos none of us actually know what behind the scenes at a football club is like, but the fact that he gets no game time whilst Marti fast tracked a child into the first team makes me think there's more to this
The kiss was also supposed to be Spock but Shatner politiked it to being him - which was why in the 2009 reboot they had Spock and Uhura as romantic partners. It was however, not actually the first interracial televised kiss.
Which leads me to my next "not a lot of people know"
Martin Luther King convinced Nichelle Nichols to stay on Star Trek.
She had decided to quit the show and take a role on Broadway. Roddenberry told her to take the weekend to think it over. That night she met MLK who told her his family were huge fans and loved the show. She told him she was going to quit.
'You cannot, you cannot... For the first time on television, we will be seen as we should be seen every day—as intelligent, quality, beautiful people who can sing, dance, and go to space… who are professors, lawyers… If you leave, that door can be closed, because your role is not a black role, and is not a female role; he can fill it with anybody, even an alien."
She went back on Monday and told Gene she was staying
I'm a big post rock fan so I listen to a lot of lyric less music
The kings. Saw them at their 20th anniversary show at the Barrowlands in Glasgow and during the flute part my mate turned to me and said "I am genuinely scared about how loud this is gonna be"
I loved the new Godspeed record and this is monstrous
I saw Explosions at Revolution Hall in Portland last year and when they closed with this (and I'll admit, under the influence of some of the good state of Oregon's finest gummies) my jaw was on the floor for about an hour afterwards
That is a hell of a reach. And what interest exactly is being protected? The Tigers game was announced months ago.
Not many medium sized cities would allow two sporting events to happen on the same day at all, especially not at two ground 10 minutes walk apart so you're lucky your train ticket was any use
Went to see Nosferatu. I'm an Eggers stan but I loved it. Every shot dripped with menacing horny evil, I left the cinema feeling gross. Sound design and cinematography unreal, incredible physical acting by the central female lead
It's not because "it's a rugby town", it's because the European fixtures are all set at the start of the tournament so that fans all know who is playing where and when with adequate time to plan to get there - perhaps something football could learn from?
Frey is a big part of our solidity because the ball either doesn't come back at us as frequently, or less quickly, than it was earlier in the year. He's a nice out ball and makes the 3 in attack work
Luton at home, the Monday before my first day back in the office of 2025. I'll take it easy.
Barnstormer performance, beat Luton, 7 pints, home by 1am.
Sat at my desk trying to style it out amidst the happy new years, a young colleague approaches me "Rob! I saw you on the telly at the game last night!!"
Fear you can not buy.
(Mercifully I was just watching at the time, rather than near one of the lino's interventions)
It's also great for our recruitment. When we talk to young prospects we can say look at Eze, Chair, Morgan - if you're good enough we'll give you a platform
Earlier in the season I was pretty critical of him because he was a bit of a headless chicken and often created more problems than he solved. But that was a really disciplined performance last night. Liked how he could both hold up but also get in behind
I think now we've gotten out of imminent threat of death, I really want us to try to finish as high as possible. Have a nice clean break and reset with a positive season and reset the mindset from circling the drain
I think the fans singing his name all through that second half when there was momentum on Nourry Out protests probably stayed their hand and likely saved our season
