I’m quite flabbergasted by this. I thought VAR was quite right - it was a foul, he was the last man, regardless of the perceived speed of the pass by people in studios. Why on earth did Ballard’s crazy red for touching an opponent’s hair stand along with a three match ban? #safc

This is a wonderful wee story. I stammered from around 8 up until my mid 20s when it just kinda disappeared. The telephone fear is real. I once psyched myself up for a fortnight to phone Boogie Times in Romford to ask if they could send me a record I just couldn’t get locally.
A moment that changed me: My stammer made life a misery – then a song gave me back my voice
Ah balls. Just heard about William Orbit. RIP youtu.be/eVdR2RfXGUw?...
