A word for the incredible @riannedowney_ last night. Not just a great voice but an incredible stage presence, a whirlwind of fun and energy. The second time I’ve seen her now and she just adds so much to the show, you can see the dynamics really work so well.

Nearly 40 years since the first time, and more than 20 shows in total but @PaulHeatonSolo was better than ever tonight. Absolutely fantastic. Here’s to the next time 🙌🏻👏🏻

On Saturday, I had the privilege of attending the Ospreys’ first home game at the freshly redeveloped St Helen’s rugby ground. Read my reflections on the importance of this moment and what comes next in the fight to save the club. torstenforswansea.substack.c…

Couldn’t be at there for @ospreys Game Day 1 last night but fantastic to see and hear it was such a success despite dreadful conditions. So much hard work has gone on over the last 4 months to make this doable, so many minor miracles achieved. This is just the start 👏🏻🙌🏻

There is nothing like honesty and transparency with your partners as you attempt to negotiate change with them….

Exclusive: ITV News understands the Welsh Rugby Union received nearly £10m last month as a result of a CVC transaction with the the United Rugby Championship. The four Welsh clubs were unaware of the deal and only learned of it after its completion.

Still one of my favourite 90s albums. Class from start to finish. It’s not 31 years ago though, surely? I’m only 35, there’s no way I bought this when I was 4…..

Had to miss today’s game but 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Fantastic to see the team hitting the ground running after the break and putting daylight between us and the rest at the top. Can we keep it going? ⚫️⚪️

Reading the WRU's feeble and outdated explanation of why they want to kill off a great rugby club, you briefly wonder if it really is written by them or if an opponent has delivered a send-up. I have covered the affairs of scores of sporting bodies for Times newspapers over the years and this desperate bunch is easily the worst

🏉Union consultants’ report on cutting clubs comes from non specialist firm, using data up to 8 years old. Much of the info highlighted could have been searched for by anyone with the internet? Why is money spent on reports like this? #BBCRugby bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/…
