Off to Wembley yesterday, friends, for Non League Cup Finals Day, so a double-dose of FA Vase and FA Trophy.

Two games on the same day at Wembley, as the FA Vase final between Whitstable Town and Whyteleafe, and the FA Trophy Final between Aldershot Town.

This morning's weekend review is upon us, with the Premier League for everyone and the rest being available to all on Friday morning.

Liverpool are the Champions and Manchester City is the Cup Final. Argue among yourselves over whether nature, or indeed anything, is healing at the moment or not.

Sometimes I write about things that aren't football. This afternoon, my garden.

Sometimes I write about things that aren't football. This afternoon, my garden.

We're past Easter, so it's time for me to take a step out into the garden and survey a mess which looks surprisingly like my brain feels, at the moment.

Morning sweethearts, it's the last day of the non-league season today and I'm going to be live-blogging it all this afternoon. The preamble is already up, and it's here should you want to bring yourselves up to date.

It's the last day of the season in the National League South, and six [SIX] teams could still lift the League title. Join me right here from 2.30 on Saturday afternoon to try and make sense of it all.

It barely took a couple of days after promotion before speculation startuing swirling manager Daniel Farke.

Thought I'd write something about Liverpool and why there's been so little over excitement about their stroll to the Premier League title.

Liverpool are coasting to the Premier League title and Mo Salah is staying, but in a way the club's season has felt weirdly... angst-ridden.

Well I threatened it, so best get it over with. A preamble for tonight's live blog of the Spurs vs Eintracht Frankfurt Europa League quarter-final. It's fair to say I'm in a frisky mood this evening. Come join me. It'd be hella lonely without you.

Come one, come all! The circus is in town! Join me this evening to see what Jesuschristalmightyingham Hotspur can manage in their make-or-break Europa League match against Eintracht Frankfurt.

In a decision that I fear may amount to something like thhis famous scene from the movie Network, I've decided to live blog tonight's Europa League match between Spurs and Eintracht Frankfurt. Join me, to be as mad as hell and not taking it any more.

I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar...

Some fear that he has been punning with his headlines again, but never mind that; here's the latest from Reading FC, who could be promoted come the end of this season, or who could be suspended by the EFL by that time.

Reading are back on the brink, but does the owner even want to sell the club?

Part four of my series on the history of football's inability to decide on a club world champion continues with 1962 to 1966, which saw a deterioration in relations between South America and Europe to frankly unsustainable levels.

There's a whole additional section to this for paying subscribers about South America at the 1966 World Cup here for paying subscribers, so if you want these extra sections, you know what to do!

Os Santasticos of 1962, it turned out, were about as good as things would get for the Intercontinental Cup for quite a long time.

Morning all, it's going to take me a little while to get into the rhythm of posting these on Facebook again after a long time away, but this week's podcast with Sam Whyte and I is upon us. If you've not heard it before, give it a listen! It's not completely terrible!

Southampton are down, Leicester and Ipswich are almost down, McDonalds burn their coffee, and there's more 10% beer talk. It's time for your weekly Football Kickback!
