Notes

Note:
roll on Thursday – the start of the 2023 Women’s Football World Cup, hosted in Australia and New Zealand!

I’ll offer a different voice to Crispin’s….C’mon Ireland!

And yes, acknowledging to the haiku purists – the title fails the haiku rules (i.e. that if adding a title to a haiku, it should not introduce a word not used in the haiku – i.e. not to introduce an inherent sense or meaning, which obviously I do here – but I couldn’t resist!)

And on the subject of new Premier League club kits….
I’m not a fan of many of them!
(Though the 2nd & 3rd strips tend to be much better).
