This was great fun to be involved in - despite having to tell the story of a terribly butchered line in my first ever radio gig way back when 🙈

Absolutely thrilled for all involved 🥳 A joy to see so much jubilation at Pride Park - even more poignant considering those recent dark days. From the brink of extinction to the scenes of today - what a journey it’s been!

Lovely to see so many familiar faces at this place again - thoroughly enjoyed standing in on the old stamping ground and nice to see a win!

🔴🔵 Intriguing game to end the opening weekend of Championship fixtures! Sunderland go again after making playoffs; Ipswich heavily fancied to have a good season following promotion. Should be a good game this - updates into @5liveSport ⚽️

Ending the season at Old Trafford for Manchester United v Fulham ⚽️ Alongside former Wales international Sam Ricketts for commentary on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra and @BBCSounds Utd aiming to secure 3rd / Fulham guaranteed top 10 (granted there’s a tad more jeopardy elsewhere…)

Fitting an astonishing National League season had a game like that to end. Bostock channeling his inner Kermorgant (😳) but didn’t cost them, unlike the latter! Have to feel pleased for Notts but sad for Chesterfield given what happened - but still - remarkable match!

Gareth Bale saying goodbye to Wales in faint drizzle before a Euro Qualifier is probably not the final farewell he deserved 😢 Important game for @Cymru - need to back up that excellent Croatia draw with victory over Latvia 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Updates into 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇸 on @5liveSport

An earlier picture when some fans were around and having fun would have been better - but what a belter of a game! Proper from start to finish 👏 Barnsley look very impressive - that top-two battle could get very tasty…..
