So the upshot of yesterday's blog is that The Tricks now actually want to film a video for Not Too Young with this 'tall bloke with long grey hair pirouetting down Balby Road.' Brilliant! It would seem I'm not the only one with the dancing down the street problem. The Beeds' drummer Jordan Thompson text me this morning to say he was slithering through town to Al Wilson's The Snake. Which brings me on to today's playlist. Another linked one but a relatively easy one. Here goes:

Easy right? Animals? Yeah I'll need to try harder next time.

I was joined on today's show by Tony Greenall to talk about the FA's appalling treatment of Doncaster Belles. The basic upshot is that in a restructuring move the Belles are to be replaced in the top flight next season by Manchester City. No reason given. Donny Belles ARE the most famous women's football club in the world. Simple as. OK not as successful in recent years as the women's game has raised it's profile but it's pretty much the equivalent of The Premiership relegating Liverpool because the name Liverpool is no longer deemed fashionable. It's not about results. The announcement was made one game into the current season. It's not about attendances. Belles still have larger crowds than the majority of Women's Super League clubs. It's not about facilities. The Keepmoat Stadium is one of the best in that league and deemed worthy by the same FA to host the Women's FA Cup Final this weekend. It is an absolute disgrace and would urge you all to read the full details on The Popular Stand's blog and sign the online petition.

Bloody Jehovah's Witnesses. Any tips? My favourite is to invite them in. Gets them every time. Anyone, they've done one as must I.
