🔁 Swapped accts w/ @ThePinchNews
After a decade of tweeting about the fanzine, Paul Coutts, and Ben Osborn, the grind of Twitter has caught up with me.
No longer posting as frequently, nor as "I". Fanzine will be back though. 🔜🔝

🚨 DEM BLADES FANZINE SUMMER '26 demblades.co.uk/collections/…
Two weeks left to pre-order the new fanzine. Pre-order is also the only way to get stickers — once it’s gone, it’s gone.
Made by proper and improper blades.
RTs hugely appreciated ⚔️ #twitterblades

Shortlisted again for @WeAreTheFSA Awards. Four years in a row. This time for the pod. Ridiculous really.
Big night incoming. If supporting the Blades has taught us anything, it’s managing expectations.
Thanks to everyone who listens - means a lot!

If you haven't read it #twitterblades, can I recommend the free Weekend Notes newsletter from @NTT20Pod? A snappy breakdown of the EFL weekend.
Also, when the chance arises, nothing will stop me talking about Blades clean sheets and Michael Cooper.

Bit on Gus Hamer from @rileyjroberts in this:
🔴21 shots this season with 1.08 xG
🔴21 shots returned 4 goals (44% of Blades' total)
🔴Chance of scoring 4+ goals from those shots = 2%
🔴Cumulative xG of shots leading to goals = 0.4
🔴Chance of all four resulting in goals = 0.06%
POD POD POD🎙️| "The table never lies... or does it?"
➡️ Truths and Lies of the Championship table
➡️ How sustainable is Hamer's form?
➡️ Pompey preview

I wrote this for @NTT20Pod. It starts at around 6pm on Feb 3 2024 – Blades concede a fourth against Villa.
Fast forward to a strong start in the Champ. The 'P' word creeps in. My PL fear isn't that 𝘸𝘦'𝘳𝘦 bad, but that the pyramid really is broken.

Proud of the quality of the NTT20 Transfer Bulletins, which I think has been maintained despite the season starting.
I make it 593 completed transfers + 34,500 words written so far. Transfer breakdown: Championship 146, League One 217, League Two 230.
