Absolutely unreal night last night being awarded the @theofficialfwa Football Writers' Association Vikki Orvice Student Football Writer of the Year Award in London. Met so many amazing people. Thrilled that at least I've managed to bring a trophy home to Old Trafford this week.

13 years since we took this into Anfield on the back of the Suarez/Evra incident. Great, pre-banter era times.

Took my 4 year old to what might be his last game for a while yesterday given the price increases. This is who is paying the price of years of financial mismanagement - not billionaires in Monaco or Tampa, 4 year olds from Stretford enamoured by the beauty of Manchester United.

There are undoubtedly LGBTQ+ players of all genders at all ages/levels of the club who may not be out yet who look to their senior colleagues for support. If your "personal beliefs" stop you showing compassion to the human beings around you, you need to question the point of them

Went through all the effort of getting a piper to do a moving tribute, then didn't put a mic on him so no one in the stadium heard it. Classic United.

The thought of this happening to Old Trafford makes me absolutely sick to my stomach.

Deansgate is swarming with Bilbao fans. It seems a great injustice that our fans went there and were treated to some of the world's greatest food in beautiful hospitable surroundings, while theirs get to come and sit outside a Sam Smiths pub opposite a shopping centre for the day

Brian Kidd tonight: "At United, we're a family. And in a family when something goes wrong, you keep it within the four walls, and tell everyone else to keep their nose out. You protect each other. That's what Sir Matt taught us and that's what we need to do now."

Well this definitely hasn't spectacularly backfired.

In the discussion around hat tricks after Amad's feat last night, it's worth remembering that Denis still holds the club record with an incredible EIGHTEEN hat tricks. The closest any player has come since was Rooney with eight. He also scored 4 in a match four times. The King.

Just walked out of work straight into PAOK's escort. Over a thousand of them walking through town, an absolute swarm all down Deansgate. They're walking to my front door and theres no way my bus is getting past on Chester Road so looks like I'm Greek for the next 40 mins

This is Rusholme, my home for 12 years of my life. These are cricket fans celebrating a T20 World Cup victory. If people can't grasp why Manchester will always welcome ordinary decent sports fans to celebrate in our city there is no hope for you. Except Rangers, who aren't decent

This photo of Sir Bobby in his hospital bed in Munich always haunts me. Imagine surviving a crash that killed 8 of your mates aged just 20, then going on to win the European Cup, the World Cup and Ballon D'or, but not being able to celebrate with them. Indescribable.
