It is with a heavy heart that I write this. I have just learned of the passing of Stanley Batten. You may remember I asked people for financial help towards a last holiday then Birthday cards for his Birthday. I have been asked by the family to thank you again for your generosity and those of you that sent cards, thank you so much. I am sure you will join me in wishing sincere condolences to his family. RIP Stanley.

Following a conversation held with Millwall Football Club we understand that the club are extremely disappointed to see tickets being advertised on third-party resale websites. The Club advise the following: Unfortunately, ticket resale on unauthorised, third-party websites is a nationwide problem across football. While not a new issue, it’s particularly disappointing to see at this critical stage of the season, especially for games yet to be put on sale. The Club has a strict ticketing policy in place. Anybody found to be purchasing season or match day tickets with the intention of unauthorised resale, or otherwise abusing the club’s ticketing terms and conditions, will be subject to investigation and appropriate action. The Club strongly condemns the practice of ticket holders attempting to profit from fellow fans and selling tickets via unauthorised, third-party websites, and urges supporters to only purchase tickets through official Millwall channels and authorised resellers. #millwallsupportersclub

If you can't get to the funeral tomorrow.Please take a minute or two out of your day to say a little prayer for Wayne and his family.❤️❤️❤️

As a kid I always dreamed of a time when Millwall would play like Man United. Well, that day is here.

Parliament has told us with a collective straight face: We can’t build railways, or tunnels, or houses. The PM needs nineteen attempts to say a woman can’t have a penis. But trust us, we’re absolutely sure we won’t make any mistakes when given the power to kill you.

🚨 Greta Thunberg’s vanity flotilla has been intercepted—calmly and without drama—by Israel’s navy. No casualties. No spectacle. Just the quiet end of another misguided attempt to breach Israel’s legal blockade. Here’s what actually happened 🧵

First proper sign of senility kicking in. ( I’ve always had stupidity, but now I’ve got senility too.) At 10:40 last night I made a note of the name ( names?) Bristow & Gunther. I have no idea what or who it is .

I’d forgotten about that brief period where Black Sabbath went California laid back .

The bodies of Gad Haggai and Judi Weinstein Haggai have been recovered by the IDF.

This image will go down in Twitter folklore as one of the most memorable. But it still needs a killer caption. Do your worst.?
