I did some work this week and SUNDERLAND WERE PROMOTED TO THE PREMIER LEAGUE. The goals scored in the last few seconds of the playoff semi-final (see my last weeknote) and the last few seconds of the playoff final are already two of my highlights of 2025. Say what you want about luck, but I believe consistent luck is skill.

Absolutely incredible. Premier League here we come! Although my dad and I weren’t there in person, we kicked every ball (and ate every snack!) along the way.
