Bloody hell.
That’s like officially the start of the new football season. One thing it means for this diary is it’s going to be solely focussed on football. Lines are being drawn, compartments are being made in my head. Other sports and stuff will appear elsewhere so look out for that but this newsletter is all about the fitba.
Danny Armstrong did not hear his name come out the Gorgie Analytics machine so he’s away to Romania. Greg Taylor has chosen Greece over being moaned at by Celtic fans. And Senior Hoillett is staying in Leith.
Since it was on at 2am I didn’t see Man City get knocked out the Club Cup by Al-Hilal. That’s what happens when you take on a team funded by oily men. On the plus side, Pep and his players get an earlier break than expected.
I have a few new designs arriving in the shop this week. The first is a stylish take on the iconic celebration image from Aberdeen’s cup win. This is available in three colours of T-shirts as well as mugs and prints. You can order it here.






Senior Hoillett 👏😂
