As the rain lashes against my window and I finally accept that the football season has begun, following the conclusion of the County Championship, it’s time to close this down. Thanks for reading and here are a few tasty morsels from earlier.

Speaking of 10 thing to look out for this weekend, I did an unintentional funny when I wrote of Villa and Emery: “A flat start this season has been the first significant bump in the road.”

But rather than frantically changing it to something like “poor start” I chose to let it ride. Thanks to AlexWriter and co. for pointing it out.

I also wrote “Form is a funny thing – just ask Morgan Rogers.”

DeJongandtherestless’s comment: “I did but he wasn’t impressed with me just turning up at his home like that” is topping the comments charts with a massive 80 upvotes.
