Hearing the NFL schedule release will be next Thursday, May 9. Plan accordingly.

I don’t care what any of you rascals say, this will be proper event television at Christmas.

I’ve finally succumbed to the hype and am watching Baby Reindeer.

Big early surprise is them filming at the F. Cooke Pie & Mash shop in Hoxton that I went to with my old mate Matthew Nash in February.

2024 NFL Schedule Release. Coming soon.

Neil Robertson hardly disagrees with me on anything, but when it comes to Gavin and Stacey the 2010 world champion says no Metcalfe, you're wrong.

I find the David Moyes at West Ham business hard to believe. Every time I've been to see the Hammers while he's been manager, they've had more gravitas than I can remember for a long time. First trophy since 1980, constantly in Europe, usually high in the league. Great job done.

That's the live snooker over for the night, but there's plenty of listening from Talking Snooker

Here's our new episode, live from Sheffield, with Phil and I joined by Mark and Ryan Watterson.

What a difference weather makes.

The last couple of nights, we’ve been dreaming sweet snooker dreams under starry skies, in lovely spring sunshine.

Tonight is about as romantic as February in Cleethorpes.

No problem Lee, appreciate the message.

I think I learned as a boy that it was possible to have two different thoughts. In this case...

*Ronnie O'Sullivan is the greatest ever and we all rightly hail his genius

*His behaviour was dreadful on Wednesday and he must be called out

Our traditional Talking Snooker episode live from the World Championship in Sheffield.

Phil Haigh and I are joined by Mark Watterson and Ryan to catch up on the last week of action.

Plus we reflect on the life and times of the late Mike Watterson.

We had two marvellous guests join us for the latest episode of the podcast, in Mark and Ryan Watterson. They really were top value and we can't wait for you to hear them.

We've just recorded a new episode of Talking Snooker.

I'll now be sending the episode round the whole podcast world. The giants like Apple and Spotify will have it. And so will the hokey, naff providers too. So if you listen to pods through one of those, don't worry.

Stuart Bingham and Jak Jones are still level after two sessions of their World Championship semi-final. Eight frames each now. The third session will be played from 10am tomorrow morning.

There’s more comedy in my tweets than most shows in fairness - I’m not sure that’s a fair gauge.

Nick Metcalfe Very good unbiased piece. And your conclusion is totally correct.....He's 50 next year, time to grow up. Sadly though, I doubt he will, or can.

Oh wow. This is bad Elliot.

The World Championship enters its final days and there's still plenty from me:
