Time for a change of pace. Up until now I’ve given a fairly blow-by-blow account of the season, and that’s ballooning this diary considerably. In the interests of not boring everyone to death, we’ll be addressing proceedings in a slightly sweeping fashion from now on. March began with the Aldershot board once again declaring they […]
We left our Aldershot boys on the back of eight wins after ten games in charge, and a decent climb up the National League table. It was fair to say I’d enjoyed quite a good honeymoon period, so to speak, but would this form be sustainable? My 11th game in charge would be a home […]
In Part One of my newest Football Manager adventure, I spent some time unemployed, waiting for someone to take a chance on me. In November Aldershot decided to give me that chance. Straight away I set up tactics I feel would work best, a kind of 4 2-2-2 formation that will hopefully be suited for […]
A few weeks ago I posted something on the Coalition website regarding articles from one Thinking Michael. Michael had discussed the apparent growing irrelevance of men in society and rallied against feminism. A cursory glance at his posts suggests he feels women are the more emotional, inferior gender.

I’d thought I’d deleted this, but my old Livejournal account is still, um, live. You could describe it as a window to a time of… Well, I’m not sure. A time when I lived in Stevenage and not Basildon, a time transitioning between towns and careers, and some observations of my life and work at […]
Allow me to preface this review with a statement – I have sparred on many occasions with the author of this book, across a range of subjects, many of which are covered in his book. As such, I freely admit that I may be biased in my appraisal of his work. I cannot guarantee this […]
Confession – I blatantly stolen this idea from The Captain’s Speech. Alternatively, this post is a loving tribute to his idea. Either way, I’d urge you to check out his quiz and either leave your answers in the comments of his post, or as he suggests, put together a similar post on your own blog. […]
So long to the Tangerine Tyrant. After four divisive, difficult and incompetent years, Trump’s time as US president is up. The world is in turmoil, but it can breath a collective sigh of relief. Now the process of healing can begin.
It’s been a while since I have sunk my teeth into a new Football Manager game. I invariably return to the 2012 edition, which is familiar and to me, easy to beat. I’ve achieved it all on that version, but what about trying out the latest version of the series? With that in mind, I […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
