A short story: Growing up I was obsessed with @LUFC. I also loved drawing. Thus the 2 things inevitably collided & I spent most of my free time sketching my Leeds United heroes.
Think @CheapPanini without the irony
(Though tbh I don’t think David Hopkin ever looked so good) /1

Sure, tonight was disappointing. But who in their heart of hearts can’t say they’re salivating at the prospect of a bronze medal match against France on Saturday?

*A conversation with my 4 year old*
Me - Guess what animal I saw in the garden last night?
Him - A cat? A dog?
Me - Nope. Here’s a clue: it has long back legs for jumping
Him - Oh no, don’t tell me it was a kangaroo

For those of you bringing kids and who might be thinking about this kinda thing… picture taken just now at 1500… Leeds end fully in shade at kick off, except a couple of blocks on this near side where dugouts are (bottom left of pic). #MOT

I’m thrilled to be hosting this year’s East Yorkshire Apprenticeship Awards on 18th June at Hull’s MKM Stadium.
Don’t forget, nominations close tonight - so if there’s somebody you know who deserves some recognition, now’s the time to act!

Being a Leeds fan in a nutshell:
90+6.59 “I think I’m actually having a heart attack”
90+ 7 “We’re staying up and we’ll win the cup🤪”
Wouldn’t have it any other way #LUFC

Don’t know why it looks like we’ve just recorded a Christmas No. 1, but these lads were incredible last night and equally amazing in person today

A fantastic initiative in partnership with an incredible organisation in the @samaritans
Today is World Suicide Prevention Day.
Alongside @samaritans, the Premier League and its clubs are launching a new initiative #TogetherAgainstSuicide supporting fans who are struggling and increasing awareness around suicide.
You support us, let us support you.

Chloe Kelly's winning penalty against Spain was clocked at 110km/h - faster than the most powerful shot in the men's Premier League last season - scored by Alexander Isak 🚀

Ten minutes after hearing of the passing of the Prince of Darkness, I was driving through a nearby village and almost crashed the car on seeing this exhibit in the local scarecrow festival. I think Ozzy would’ve approved 🤘

I’m due to be playing football for the first time in six years on Sunday, against ex pros in 30 °C heat. What could go wrong…?😅
Myself and Ben are playing in a charity match THIS Sunday!
It’s for a great cause and involves some Leeds legends too.
Make sure to get tickets if you can, would be great to see a load of AwayDays viewers there supporting the cause! ⬇️

Even Aldi are getting in on this 4th of July mumbo jumbo
Best served if you mix 'em and cook 'em in a pot like gumbo
