@PickGS @liam43102 Working on rail replacement, you have to reverse park at every station you work at.

@mikeulyatt1 When we let him go to Derby on loan, McKenna said “it wasn’t a football decision, it wasn’t related to his football performance. It was a decision that was made in the best interests of our group dynamic, our dressing room culture, of the values of our dressing room & our team.”

@wilson_cllr @angus_young61 I’m sorry to hear this. I always enjoyed Mitch’s company and he was a true public servant. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones.

[Andy Comfort @andycomfort]

@NewsMutt I haven’t seen this! He said what????

[Andy Comfort @andycomfort]

@Radiojottings Yes - when it says drive to New Holland and await ferry….

Satnav experts: I’ve rebooted our built-in TomTom, loaded an update & it will not plan a route via the Humber Bridge. I’ve checked the settings & it’s not programmed to avoid toll roads. Anyone else being advised to do Barton-Hessle 70 miles via M18 instead of 2 over the bridge?!

@jameshoggarth @GrahamCannon @mikewhitesport 😆 I’ve still got one somewhere

If you keep staring when someone looks uncomfortable, that’s abuse. Stop. We’re proud to partner with the Home Office on the ENOUGH campaign to tackle harassment on our railway.

@GrahamCannon Ah yes - when you see Portman Road away! 🤣 Really chuffed for you and I look forward to the Ipswich v City games again next season.

[Andy Comfort @andycomfort]

I was thrilled when Ipswich got promoted and I feel the same about Hull City. Here are my thoughts for what they are worth..

[Andy Comfort @andycomfort]

@simonhul Yes. I didn’t know until today - ex nursery teacher I understand. He carries himself well.

[Andy Comfort @andycomfort]

While I’m delighted for Hull City, this is an honest appraisal from a manager who seems to be a decent man, taking responsibility. Football needs more like Kim Hellberg.

[Keith Downie @SkySports_Keith]

🚨 🇸🇪 Boro boss Kim Hellberg:

🗣️ “It’s the toughest two weeks I’ve been through — two heartbreaking losses in one week.
🗣️ “You feel very, very empty. I feel very flat after everything we put into the season.
🗣️ “It’s a sad moment and I wish I could’ve done better, find better solutions. That’s what football comes down to and it’s my responsibility.”
