@ToonPolls come on Newcastle. Got to smash Liverpool, and shut Jimmy Goulding up.

@Coventry_City Super Frank. Fancy coming down to watch us? We keep conceding silly goals, need your advice.

[Atherstone Rangers Thunder @ARJFCThunder]

@ManCity fancy a friendly at some point? The lads are a bit low on confidence, should be a tight game.

@thevaccines will be at the Empire tonight. Any chance of a press pass to get in the pit for a couple of songs? I'll wear a wetsuit if required.

@shedseven apologies they all stared at you as you came in for dinner earlier! Top, top band. Liquid Gold Ocean Pie is another level.

Finley just can't stop assisting this year.

@KMbappe Hi Kylian. My son Aodhan seems to be suggesting this is a genuine PSG shirt signed by you. You came to our house last week to sign it. Just want to say thanks, he loves it.

@Arsenal Lol. We were disappointed when our club chairman didn't put out a public statement when we had a goal cruely ruled out last season because a dog ran on the pitch and scared their goalkeeper.

[Atherstone Rangers Thunder @ARJFCThunder]

Well, that was a wet one. Game finished 3 hours ago and still cannot feel my toes.

And finally, something to make sure the parents stay awake!

Given the destruction of the original trainer of the week trophy, I have decided to retire it to allow it to have some rest before eventual structural death occurs. So a new trophy has arrived! Will it make it to next season? Will I??

Training under the lights on Wednesday was great. Broke the dreariness of half term!

[Atherstone Rangers Thunder @ARJFCThunder]

Last weekend was drab. Though the Swifts were class and deserved their performance. Standouts for the Thunder were Leo and Finley W.

[Atherstone Rangers Thunder @ARJFCThunder]

Already missing Benji, who has scored 4 goals in last 4 games, and Rowan is poorly 😭😭😭 Need some big shifts from the Thunder squad tomorrow

[Atherstone Rangers Thunder @ARJFCThunder]

Thunder v Swifts, at Polesworth Rec. 9.30am kick off. Tickets available at the ground.

[Atherstone Rangers Thunder @ARJFCThunder]

Carter was player of the match. His first ever hat-trick, after being given a run in midfield. Brilliant performance 🥳

[Atherstone Rangers Thunder @ARJFCThunder]

A great performance from every Thunder player, and some excellent camera work by me.

[Atherstone Rangers Thunder @ARJFCThunder]

But to confirm, it was a very successful Saturday morning for the Thunder!

[Atherstone Rangers Thunder @ARJFCThunder]

Apologies, global following of the Thunder. Been a busy weekend!

[Atherstone Rangers Thunder @ARJFCThunder]

Training under the floodlights. Always feels special. #utt
