I could listen to our CEO David Bruce talk all night. Intelligence, insight and common sense.

We haven’t had someone running our club who has such positivity and enthusiasm in my entire lifetime.

So inspiring!

Delighted to attend the Royal Garden Party at Buckingham Palace yesterday in recognition of our contribution to the community. 🇬🇧👑

We had a fantastic time, and it was great to bump into our friends from Reach Up Youth too! 🙌✨

Loved this; David Morrissey's performance is extraordinary and very moving ... Eve Myles also excellent - profound and thought provoking situation

[ITV @ITV]

Did he do it?

When his wife goes missing, a headmaster’s calm reaction puts him at the centre of suspicion.

David Morrissey and Eve Myles star in Gone. Starts 8th March on ITV1 and ITVX

Prince William paid a personal tribute to Sir David Attenborough on his 100th birthday.

Such a brilliant speech👏🏻💚

Really feeling the blues today sat on my flight back to Chicago after one of the best days of my life on Saturday. Wishing we could do it all over again.
I’ll never forget the welcome you, the fans, gave to me and my family. Getting to meet so many of you was so much fun.

After a long and tough process, I want to thank my dad and business partner @storchyowl for believing in this and finding a way. When many could not see a path forward, he kept pushing us all to find it.

We had some great meetings with David Bruce and Henrik this week and there really is just so much to do but I’m incredibly energized.

This is going to be an awesome journey. I’ll be back soon!

I have had so many lovely comments like this. Thank you for all your support. If you haven't watched Secret Service yet, I'll retweet a few more in the hope you will line it up for this weekend. It's been at No1 on ITVX for a solid ten days now.

Roald Dahl on Measles: Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. As the illness took its usual course I can remember reading to her often in bed and not feeling particularly alarmed about it. Then one morning, when she was well on the road to recovery, I was sitting on her bed showing her how to fashion little animals out of coloured pipe-cleaners, and when it came to her turn to make one herself, I noticed that her fingers and her mind were not working together and she couldn’t do anything.

'Are you feeling all right?' I asked her.

'I feel all sleepy,' she said.

In an hour, she was unconscious. In twelve hours she was dead.

The measles had turned into a terrible thing called measles encephalitis and there was nothing the doctors could do to save her. That was...in 1962, but even now, if a child with measles happens to develop the same deadly reaction from measles as Olivia did, there would still be nothing the doctors could do to help her. On the other hand, there is today something that parents can do to make sure that this sort of tragedy does not happen to a child of theirs. They can insist that their child is immunised against measles.

...I dedicated two of my books to Olivia, the first was ‘James and the Giant Peach’. That was when she was still alive. The second was ‘The BFG’, dedicated to her memory after she had died from measles. You will see her name at the beginning of each of these books. And I know how happy she would be if only she could know that her death had helped to save a good deal of illness and death among other children.

A big thank you to the ambulance service and medical staff at Hillsbrough @swfc for their speedy and amazing support for my mother who took ill at the match yesterday after the second goal (it must have been shock). Also a special thank you to the fans around us in the Kop that supported.
Mums doing well and we are all looking forward to a bright future 💙🙏🙌

[David Storch @storchyowl]

Wanted to take some time to reflect on a day I’ve been dreaming of for months.

Saturday was perfect. Will never be able to express how grateful I am for the warm welcome the @SWFC fans gave my family and me. The sun shone down on our wonderful club on Saturday.

It was the experience of a lifetime to enjoy the moment with you all…. To share our new crest designed by the incredible local agency Peter and Paul…. To share the news that after an incredible collaborative effort between my team, the @EFL and BTG we will start next season on zero points!…. To introduce you to our incredible new CEO, David Bruce…. And to witness over 30,000 of my newest friends singing for 99 minutes straight as our Owls closed out such a difficult season with a win.

I’d like to further highlight how grateful I am to the @EFL for their diligence and approach in working with us to ratify all issues and achieve our target of closing by 1 May.

It takes a village; but without the commitment and tenacity of Asher Simons, Clive Betts MP and James Silverwood in particular, we would not be where we are today.

It’s been an extremely emotional 48 hours for me after a long process, but now the focus is already completely on action. We are proceeding ahead immediately on all fronts and we will update you, the fans, as we go.

You are the reason Michael and I are here, the reason we have fallen in love with this city and this club. We will do everything in our power to ensure we don’t let you down.

David

@tombradby I have just finished #SecretService and thoroughly enjoyed it. Writing, production, casting - all spot on. Well done to you - I'm missing it already and looking forward to the next one.

#swfc still feeling a little emotionally unstable after trying to unpack the experience and outcomes of yesterday’s takeover announcement

And to top it off, Being Boiled was used for the video announcement

Our club reborn…
