Blackburn Rovers, running, teaching, and rural French living. Currently in France!

@_ElliottJackson As a rovers fan living in France I’ve relied and trusted your reporting on my home town team Elliot. And you’ve done a bloody good job. This is a disgraceful censorship by the club. Hopefully they will realise this soon. Peter White must be turning in his grave in shame!!

[Craig lumsden @calumsden]

@Rovers What a pathetic, weak and ill advised decision to make. Your dictatorial ways disgust me. LET has every right to report, question and champion our football club. Disgusting from @Rovers

@sashaofficial @CARLCOXOFFICIAL @sashaofficial and @carlcoxofficial in Toulouse! Never expected line ups like this when we moved to sleepy SW France years ago. Tickets bought and looking forward to it. Oh yes oh yes!

[Craig lumsden @calumsden]

@dantyte You’ve got a tough run in. Next week could be the decider. Your game against Shef UTD (who have to win) and Luton vs Derby! Good luck.

[Craig lumsden @calumsden]

Slow, muddy, wet and windy loop around Lac de l’Arrêt Darré today #running

[Craig lumsden @calumsden]

@Rovers Welcome! Allez les bleus!

[Craig lumsden @calumsden]

Bit wet today but still got out for a 10km trot #running

Come on, do better than this.

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

The word you’re looking for is “invasion.”

Israel is invading Lebanon, a sovereign country.

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

The language of whitewashing:

🇮🇱: Invades Lebanon
Media: Israel sends troops

🇮🇱: Bombs civilians
Media: Blasts heard, people say

🇮🇱: Destroys Rafah
Media: A limited operation

🇮🇱: Blocks aid
Media: Hunger stalks Gaza

🇮🇱: Flattens apartment buildings
Media: A targeted strike

[Craig Mokhiber @CraigMokhiber]

If a mass terrorist attack like that perpetrated by Israel in Lebanon occurred in any western country, western leaders would be marching arm-in-arm through the streets of Paris, western media would provide non-stop, tearful coverage, the UK flag would be at half-staff for weeks, and the US Air Force would be bombing the perpetrators (and several other countries). But this is Israel, the country above all law. And the victims are only Arabs, the people designated as unworthy of human rights by the west. The hypocrisy. The racism. The #shame.

[Craig lumsden @calumsden]

@nickgusset Yes! And France/Deschamps are getting the same grief here as well. But sod it we’re in the semifinal. Yes!

[Craig lumsden @calumsden]

@OwenJones84 Spot on @OwenJones84 Here in France the only way the far right will be defeated is through the left wing party alliances and not the pandering so called centerists. The electorate and left parties finally seem to be realising this as well.

@OllieHolt22 Great target - good excuse to work it off with a run every morning.

[Craig lumsden @calumsden]

Got some new Hoka’s. Took them for a spin around this beaut of a lake. Very muddy and now not so new trail trainers. Also nearly caught up on @RunComPod after an injury year out. #yourweekendruns #trailrunning

@paulmasonnews Are you really saying this? Although I don’t always agree with your views I’ve respected you and them as reasoned. But whatever you think of Galloway he won a democratic vote. It’s not an attack on anything , but a wake up call for the Labour Party to listen to voters.

[Craig lumsden @calumsden]

@nickgusset No, JDT has gone now.

[Craig lumsden @calumsden]

@nickgusset You’ve got an undeniably great talent in him. He’ll be worth every penny.
