I don’t support Arsenal so I have no agenda. But he’s done this so often. It’s sneaky, for me he’s committing the foul (although he’s clever for winning it) and he’s going to seriously hurt a fellow pro if he keeps it up. It’s dangerous as hell.
Making that proudest of walks for the second, and final, time to take Jacob Jon Caney home to meet his big brother Elliott. My weedy arms didn’t enjoy lugging the 9lb 12oz unit, born on Friday May 7, home. But my heart did now our little family is complete ❤️
The Lamp Shop in King’s Lynn remains one of the greatest mysteries to me. I’ve never seen anyone go in there, I don’t know anyone who has and I haven’t spoken to anyone who has bought something from there. It’s just glistened on Portland Street for over 50 years 🛋💡
Absolutely floored. He’s helped me so much over the years. Only spoke to him recently after he hosted an event for us. The master when it came to so many areas of press/broadcasting. The voice of speedway & many other sports. More than that, he was a great man. RIP
@nigelpearson
One of the greatest days supporting King’s Lynn, new and old. The pub, the concourse, the away following, the atmosphere, the performance, the limbs. Will never be forgotten. Completely outplayed a League Two side on their turf. In the hat for the second round we go 💙💛

@MikeByronByrne
Incredible days. The rivalry when the A team from your club met the B team was intense. It was almost as nervy as queuing for an ice cream knowing you were on pitch 10 next & it was about 7 miles away 😂 The wait between games, stuffing your face & then being too full to play 😂
Amid all the noise, Lindelof has been slowly becoming the centre-back we hoped he would be. Fantastic today. If we snap up someone to partner him I’d be massively happy with a back five of DDG, Dalot (or Young), Lindelof, ? and Shaw
#mufc
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. But some of the slinging going on around Lynn is mind-boggling. Did people really expect another case of HMS Piss The League? I expected plenty of defeats, some harsh learning curves and hopefully survival. People need to get real.
@bhall____
It was this point you regretted the carpet burn that you knew had arrived. Too soft for the Northern Leagues mate, but plenty of Southern League clubs will fancy such a ball-playing specimen.
Appreciate Southend are ex-Football League and a big town but it’s a powerful thing when an area and supporters connect/reconnect with a club. Don’t forget they’ve had a grim few years too so plenty of reason to stay away.
Finish line feels 😂 First proper half ✅
1:16:45, 11th out of 1,000 at St Neots ✌🏻
36, job, 2/3 freelance jobs, co-parenting & a long-distance relationship 📔Excuses exist for those who aren’t willing to put the work in or don’t want it enough 👊🏻2024 aim: Sub 3-hour marathon ⏰
Finally ticking off the Nottingham Triangle. Never expected to be doing it with little old Lynn at Notts County.

Large crowds queuing for Wireless festival in Finsbury Park have stormed the fences resulting in police pushing them back, this comes after reports event organisers were refusing to open the gates.

Today is special for anyone who cares about King’s Lynn Town. Those going to the game - I hope those ‘new’ fans return - those watching on TV (🥹) and anyone who ❤️ the Linnets. Most of all, it’s a big day that those loyal fans who go week in, week out deserve the most
#FACup
All the salty fans on Twitter piping up about Lynn getting a 4,000 gate yesterday acting like we’re the only club who gets their biggest gates for the biggest games. Fact is 4k at National League North - regardless of our average or next gate - is absolutely absolutely massive 👌🏻
If you’re a human (I won’t use the word Lynn supporter) that is questioning Ian Culverhouse you might want to go to A&E and check your brain is still functioning. Got us to National League, players being furloughed & you’re doubting him. Give your head a HUGE wobble

Six points clear, game in hand, 3x 1,000-plus gates in a row, FA Cup first round. Terrace heroes everywhere. Players appreciating the fans. A MANAGER doing the same and enjoying the press duties. The buzz is back. The togetherness has been back since Tommy arrived. Magical 💛💙
Today has been one of the greatest days. Genuinely humbled to have spent hours with five-time world
#speedway
champion Ove Fundin - who not only gave us so much of his time but bought lunch as he’s a bloody gent - in Sweden. Just hope the film does this legend justice 🇸🇪
Don’t post much about him on Twitter. But either way, can’t believe our son Elliott is 2 today. Where has that time gone?! He’s such a funny, kind and yet still headstrong little fella so he won’t appreciate the stupid photos I’ve taken to celebrate various age milestones 🙈😂
I don’t want to be THAT guy. But momentum was with us. Ref makes 1 stinking decision (arguably 2) and MPT then can’t ride again & looks to have suffered an injury. It changed everything.
@KLSpeedway
did us proud with fightback. Let’s back them on Wed regardless of 1st leg deficit
A little bit of my heart broke here. Regardless of what he does as a manager, he’s a fantastic man with great morals. He’s a PR dream for the FA. But the best bit is none of it is forced. I believe what he says.
@ManUtd
Do they involve Jose being in charge? If yes, your options will include: draw ✔️ boring ✔️ slow start ✔️ toxic atmosphere ✔️ players downing tools ✔️ Jose making it all about him ✔️ Going one step closer to a top-half finish ✔️ Late comeback via route one tactics ✔️
Team-mate presses a few opponents, they panic and end up lamping the ball into touch.

but not once has he failed to respond to a query of mine or help. A credit to the sport and his profession 👏🏻
Running is the gift that keeps giving - especially mentally/emotionally. A proud day in King’s Lynn yesterday. GEAR brings out the best in everyone. 1,822 different reasons for doing 10k, all special. I ran 37:52 in 2022, but clocked 33:51 for a PB & 6th this time. LFG 👊🏻
If I hear one more Premier League manager/club crying about fixture congestion and FA Cup replays I might explode. Stick summer tours up your jacksie if your players are too tired. And stop sticking the stiffs out if you’re that desperate to avoid another game 😡🤬🤯
What a proud night for so many of us who love
@officialKLtown
. To play so well is one thing. To come from behind, twice, to take a point on their National League debut is another. Some harsh lessons but so many encouraging signs. Just hope us fans can get in to enjoy it soon 💛💙
Can we all agree on something? People who go to fans parks to throw beer about are not football supporters and need an immediate banning order from every ground in England. Cheers.
Three pints and a fry up down already. Spending the day with some of the proper fans for a rare Lynn away day. Up the Bradford-bound opening day of the season Linnets 💙💛
I still can’t quite believe just how good King’s Lynn Town were yesterday. The result would be seen by many as an upset but had the win been by three of four goals it wouldn’t have been unjust. Two levels below the hosts, but Doncaster were absolutely played off the park
#FACup
Norwich can be massively proud of their efforts over both games. Some City supporters change opinions like the wind. But if I was a
#ncfc
fan I’d keep faith with Farke/Webber. They’re rebuilding something young & exciting. Big job on but give ‘em time. Many encouraging signs 👍🏻
They need their heads testing 🤣. But the 20/30 Lynn fans who are travelling to Wrexham deserve the keys to the town. I’m sure there’ll be some gallows humour & a slice of toxicity if they don’t get a response after Saturday’s grim display. Up the heroic Wales-bound Linnets fans.
Not sure who is currently running

Lynn being in the National League next season is ABSOLUTELY massive. I just hope Covid-19 restrictions don’t hang around too long so thousands of people can fill The Walks. Keep spreading the word about how big this is for the club & town. Absolutely magical times.
Every Man United fan right now as they try to deal with the club going down the toilet and a loved ex-player at the helm (repeat until passed out)

Just a reminder, if needed, that most people are actually good, kind and helpful. She was waiting by my car when I returned. Prevented a costly error 🏃🏻♂️❤️
A big day for the only grandad I’ve had. Raz has quietened down but he’s still the same legend who gave 50-plus years to local football. The real Mr Terrington who thousands of people will know - probably because he’s called them a twat 🤣 They don’t make them like they used to!
What. A. Great. Day. I love King’s Lynn Town Football Club so much. And the lads (and lasses) who went today. Proper, proper supporters. I can’t wait till I go every week but for now I’m happy attending as many games as I can and getting in a right old pickle. Football is magical
Wish I hadn’t stumbled across
@90sWWE
feed. Because if I thought I’d never lose more hours to anything as unsociable as Championship Manager then I was sadly wrong 😍
Nick Haughton, Fylde’s 10, is SOME player. Might have joked he’s a Poundland Hazard but was the best player on the pitch in both games between top two in the National League. Worryingly, we didn’t learn from being overloaded in midfield away - and still set up same way at home 🙈
I’ve never felt so disinterested in a football World Cup. I can’t be alone. Sure I’ll get sucked in but it just doesn’t feel the same when you’re usually buzzing for beer gardens, summer and watching games in shorts. Dark, cold and dull performances from England it is 🙈
Nice to see

was, erm, about myself 😂 It’s about how my quest for higher-level football at the age of 30 has left me disappointingly dizzy....and it’s all my fault. All thoughts, sympathies and abuse welcome as always. This week’s poll to follow....
Lynn, wound up in 2009, were reborn in 2010/11 & entered the United Counties League Premier Division. Football League stalwarts Notts County were in League One. They were SIX levels apart. Next season they’ll be ZERO levels apart. Feels like a mad dream but it’s reality 💛💙
Petition to ban all commentators from apologising for any industrial/offensive language that may be picked up from pitchside mics or crowd chants at a f****** football match.
Apologies for anyone who have have been offended by this Tweet.

It’s been hard enough for those who ‘only’ knew him. But my thoughts and prayers go out to his family, closest friends and colleagues. One of the most universally liked people I’ve come across who always had a kind word, laugh and a smile for all 💔
Our Town has been rocked to it's core as news filters through of the passing of Lee Calton.
Seeing the out-pouring of grief on local social media shows you how loved Lee was to all to knew him.
A fundraiser, a businessman, a family man & a friend to many.
RIP Lee
I don’t know what hurts more from football on Saturday. My two knackered big toes, my back or my pride after the referee said: “Calm down mate, at your age you want to be thinking about your blood pressure” 😳
Hell of an effort. It’s been an amazing season of history making, with a cup final still to come. You’ve done the town & county proud
