    The morning after the night before… A pleasure to referee the @surreyfa Sunday Lower Junior Cup Final last night, the highlight of my 23 year refereeing career! Brilliant game played in the right spirit by both teams and my fellow match officials were absolute quality too! 💪🏻

    Sadly not going to @FulhamFC tonight as I am taking a stand against the ticket prices Not having my own ST seat reserved as well as a £40 price point is unacceptable for a midweek bonus game live on BBC One The price goes up another £5 today which is also a scandal! #FFC

    I first joined the @SouthernSunday committee on this very day 🔟 years ago! We had 30 teams, 3 divisions, no emails, no phone app and no technology! Today we have 90+ teams, 9 divisions and use technology in so many ways. I’ll enjoy today and here’s to the next 10 years! 🍾🥂

    Just got home from my 5 hour pitch inspection matathon, thank you for the kind tweets, messages and emails 🤝 I will be doing it all over again in future weeks if the weather is bad, things like this make our league special @SouthernSunday 🌧

    Roman Kemp is an inspiration and a brilliant spokesperson for mental health particularly for men and young people! 💪🏻
    “I am the definition of silver spoon - yet I got to a place where I felt life wasn’t really for me." @romankemp stresses the need for young people to be equipped to manage their mental health. Coming to @GlobalPlayer @maitlis

    I get the frustration of @SouthernSunday teams after the postponed games of the last 4-6 weeks Frustration however is one thing, but abuse is another... I am literally done with the shitty emails from clubs & being shouted at down the phone Time to name and shame perhaps?

    Decided not to go Fulham v Newcastle FA Cup game on Jan 26 ❌ We have no opportunity to reserve our ST seats and a seat in JH is a ridiculous £45 😤 at 7pm on a Saturday night when the game is live on ITV4 I would have paid £30 but £45 is just far too much! @FulhamSuppTrust

    Seeing the usual trolls asking whether this actually matters? 🤯 It matters that an individual is now able to be his authentic self whilst doing something he clearly loves, good luck to him! 🏳️‍🌈
