My first game of the season as home for Christmas (actually my first game since Christmas 2023 - that's dreadful!!!) Can't wait - despite the form we have been showing. I reckon it will be a cagey 2-1 win, with very little footballing prowess on show, but leaving us with a reason to continue the festive drinking! Devlin and Aouchiche

Cliff Richard - Mistletoe and Wine

Oh my god, this is one of those facts I am embarrassed not to know, but I had always assumed it was written by UB4 - not a cover of a Neil Diamond song! Well I never. The fact I hate UB40 probably helped me pay no attention to the songs actual origin.

Chemical Brothers - Dig Your Own Hole

Idles - Rabbit Run

Pallas - Cut and Run

2-0 down at half time, storming back to 2-4 after 114 minutes Aouchiche Nisbet Schmeichel (og obvs) Bilalovic

Bruce Springsteen - Born in the USA

Faith No More - The Real Thing

Shania Twain - Man! I Feel Like a Woman!

Idles - The Beachland Ballroom

Madness - Wings of a Dove

Sonic Youth - Kool Thing

His son has been arrested following their deaths!!

They predate Boost, but in the 90s were rebranded Peanut Boost.......before they saw sense and put them back to Starbar. "It was okay". Nae taste. I thought better of you.

Best before 01/01/98

Starbar is my current go-to. They seem to have had a real resurgence recently.

These are three that always come up for me when the conversation of old chocolate bars and sweeties comes up. I haven't had Rolos for ages. Really fancy some. They're still a thing, right? And drinking a cup of tea through a Spira. Speaking of drinks (of the very sweet variety - although not confectionary so no real place here), is Moray Cup still a thing? And cremola foam (fucking gads min)

Republica - Ready to Go

David Bowie - Starman

Violent Femmes - Add It Up

Mine aged me at 53. Made this 54 year old very happy I thought I had listened to quite a lot of new stuff, but must still be mired in 80s and 90s metal and indie in my listening habits.

Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Two Tribes

Bananarama - Really Saying Something

Well that was a good first day. Great to see Root finally get that elusive century. And good to see them hold on to close, so the Aussie openers need to get out and field for a bit, then get padded up. Hopefully disrupt their start a bit when they get in. Shaping up for a good test? Hope so
