Tech journalist and football bore. Work: Occasional Cambridge United hot takes:
Couple of unknown (to me at least) faces training with the squad, who I assume are trialists. Think the blond one is Battrum from West Ham who was in the squad for the Northampton game
The Junior U's Open Day is a very wholesome event. I would've loved this when I was a kid (and tbh still do)
Just had this pop up on my YouTube and assumed it must be a parody. #CamUTD
Looks like Iraq have drafted in Dom Ball to deal with Mbappe. Smart move. #camUTD
Easy to see why SpaceX is set to become one of the world's most valuable companies with such a sound business model (from its IPO filing):
I haven't been to Arbury Court for a few days but the redevelopment is looking🔥
Keys must be self-aware at this point, surely. If not, this is incredible www.telegraph.co.uk/football/202...
Crawley have reached the "we're stuck with him so might as well make the best of it" stage of Ryan Loft. Poor souls. #CamUTD
AI "no longer confidently says things that are nonsense," the author of this blog contends. So I just asked ChatGPT who the most notable Cambridge United players of all time are, and, well:
Lyle Taylor has done Undr the Cosh and the Spotify comments are spectacular;
Video games journalism in 2025 (on the new Football Manager title);
This just in from @wsj.com. CITATION NEEDED. www.wsj.com/tech/openai-...
Retro shirt day innit. Am I happy the kit I bought when I was 16 still fits? Immediately yes 🧡🖤
A proper Neil Harris Cambridge United Football Team performance. We're so back 🧡🖤
Sorting through my stuff and found my NCTJ placement logbook. Unsure I've ever ascended to 'extremely competent journalist' status
I for one can't imagine turning to any other mid-aughts MTV star for advice on changing buying cycles.
As United continue to circle the League One plughole ready to be sucked under, I've written about the return of Bonner and Harris, and the difficulties of being a small fish in a big pond, for the latest @wsc.co.uk. Out now. #camUTD
