Chris Rea and Kenny Dalglish born on the same day. Little known fact: they used to live beside eachother in the early 90s and were great pals. But they fell out when Kenny, a big Buddy Holly fan, started blaring his TV every Sunday evening. Chris even wrote a song about it...

I set a new PB tonight. The 2000 piece jigsaw was open barely 60 minutes before I declared "one of the edge pieces is definitely missing".

As a result of Friday's tweet, I've just been invited onto Dancing With The Stars.

There are a couple of men standing outside my house with what look like long-distance-lens cameras. After Friday's tweet, I'm pretty certain they're paparazzi.

Ignore that last tweet. They were just a couple of workmen from next door's extension build. The "cameras" were DeWalt drills.

Anfield looked tiny tonight...

The Italian National Anthem is like Band on the Run - three songs in one.

Dan Sheehan is the best Irish hooker since Debbie in Love/Hate

Fabien Galthie channeling his inner Edgar Davids

Nathan Collins must be in the Top 3 most handsome Irish footballers ever.

Over to you, lads Paul Howard Bros

Being a 50 year old Irish man with odd musical tastes, I'm watching a TG4 show dedicated to Tommy Makem. And it's about 17 years old. ROCK N ROLL.

What a photo.

Fergie's "perch" line has come back to bite him on the arse a bit this season. I'm worried his "Lads, it's Tottenham" line is gonna do similar tonight.

Chelsea dropping 4 of the back 5 who kept a clean sheet against Forest on Sunday seems like an odd move.
