That was a masterclass by a modern day legend. #UsykDubois2

@BBCBreaking Rest in peace Lord Vader. May the force be with you.

First spin of this new beauty from @theriflesband. A feel good record for the summer and yet another consistently great album.

[Howard James @HowyJam]

No doubt in my mind…’Rubber Soul’ - The Beatles.

Dear @RoyalMail, please stop providing ‘estimated’ time of delivery notifications for parcels. In my area, you don’t get close…ever. I’ve just spent another morning waiting for nothing. It’s a gigantic waste of precious time.

Enjoyed a tour of the historic San Siro stadium this afternoon whilst on holiday in Milan. Wonderfully atmospheric arena, even whilst empty. @acmilan @Inter We’ve chosen our team, AC Milan for us.

What a pair of utterly despicable rodents.

Two Sheffield Wednesday fans after they played Sunderland last night…

Ban them for life.

@Arsenal A thing of beauty. Wonderful football in the build up and a sublime finish. Looks better every time you see it.

#SwanseaCity Reflecting this morning on last night’s horror show. Performance was abysmal. Cardiff showed more desire and more quality when needed. We look woefully under coached and tactically unaware. Duff under pressure. Result & performance vital at QPR. @swansinfo #Swans 🦢

@paulwellerHQ I love this album. Very different, but yet has Weller’s trademark class and stamp all over it. Stick it on late at night, with low lights and a large whiskey if that’s your thing and you’ll be lost in its beauty.

[Howard James @HowyJam]

What a wonderful recording of the great @JoeStrummer and his Mescaleros at Acton Town Hall. Tragically just over a month before the great man passed, this must be one of his final live performances. I had to pick this up today. #vinylcollection

@rickygervais When I watched that episode I laughed so hard I almost passed out! It has made me laugh once again so thank you for that @rickygervais 😂

[Howard James @HowyJam]

Should I feel some sort of guilt for thinking that @rickastley and @BlossomsBand performing a set of The Smiths songs is the best thing I’ve seen at @glastonbury this weekend. Hell no! It was bloody beautiful!

[Howard James @HowyJam]

This is terribly sad news. A hugely popular and highly regarded manager in Swansea City’s history. I will never forget that FA Cup win over West Ham, the North Bank was absolutely bouncing that night. Rest in peace John. Once a Jack, Always a Jack. 🤍🖤🦢

[Swansea City AFC @SwansOfficial]

Everyone at Swansea City is saddened to learn of the passing of our former manager John Hollins MBE, and our thoughts are with John’s friends and family at this sad time.

Once a Jack, Always a Jack 🖤🤍

My first comment when Mr Coleman’s appointment was announced was “I hope he knows what he is doing”. Tonight we have this cryptic, poorly written statement that nobody seems to know what the hell is about. I weep for the future of our club. Good start Mr Chairman. #SwanseaCity

[Swansea City AFC @SwansOfficial]

📝 A statement from Swansea City chairman Andy Coleman.

[Howard James @HowyJam]

Renewed for another season, along with my friends. Wouldn’t it be nice if the clubs owners matched the financial commitment the supporters make every single season? #SwanseaCity #Swans @swanstrust @swansinfo

That’s as poor a transfer window as we have ever had - and that’s saying something! Absolutely shambolic. 3 points off a play off place, yet no backing from the owners whatsoever. Appalling! @SwansOfficial @swansinfo @swanstrust

Flying home from New York tonight after a fabulous short break. This is the view from the top of the Rockefeller Centre this morning.

[Howard James @HowyJam]

There has been a lot of good feeling and well deserved plaudits of Welsh football over the past few years. Rightly so. But, on the field at this World Cup, we have been appalling. No quality, tactically non existent & total neglect of the basics. #WorldCup #Wales #WALvENG 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
