    Nick Kyrgios

    However, the act of aiming a ball deliberately at an opponent's body or head other than in an attempt to win a point is contrary to the spirit of the game (and possibly the rules). It would certainly fall into the "unsportsmanlike conduct". How many slams Nadal has won or how much money he has...

    Women's World Cup 2019

    Thanks G. But do you agree with my point about soccer being in American girls' psyche for much longer than in UK/Europe?

    Women's World Cup 2019

    What we lack in England (and a lot of Europe, tbf) is a generation of women who have grown up with football as a major women's sport, as they have in the USA. Girls play "sahccer" from an early age because most other team sports are very male-dominated (I'm not aware of women's basketball...

    Killing Eve Season 2

    I'm always surprised by people (actors included) who can speak in pretty much any accent the script calls for, but choose to adopt such a ghastly one for their "normal" speaking voice (Scouse in her case).

    Women's World Cup 2019

    I have to say i only watched it up until our goal (as the Mrs is definitely not one of the trillion pseudo-converts), but USA looked capable of penetrating our girls at the back every time they got the ball. They are technically MUCH better - just look at the way the lovely Ms Press headed that...

    The 'not so obvious' hot babes thread!

    While USA footballer Alex Morgan is far too obvious for this thread, i think Christen Press probably sneaks under the "not so obvious" radar. And WHAT a header!!

    Killing Eve Season 2

    Having watched it, i don't think FM's given TOO much away, TBF. And it still gripped me and made me howl with laughter (at Villanelle's utter cold psychopathy) all the way through. Stick with it Otis!

    Women's World Cup 2019

    What if Kirstie Allsopp was playing centre-mid for England? Then you'd be in a quandary!

    Helping out fellow fans Part II

    Be great for SBT's recognition as a "fans' group" (they only ever mention the Trust and JHW on BBC CW, for example) if they supported this initiative rather than doing something else, but either would be good.

    Please explain.

    It was the bit about "Wasps and people related to the council were involved with Hoffman on the sly for the takeover bid", which they've been trying to deny ever since (with a little help from their usual mouthpieces).

    Please explain.

    A lot of it stemmed from Duggins making some sort of statement to the full City Council meeting about how they really haven't fucked the club over (and failed to mention any of the evidence which SISU have published previously). He made himself look a bit of a dunce in doing so.

    Helping out fellow fans Part II

    Likewise. I understand Joy has donated, but wouldn't it be brilliant for promoting the goodwill of the club if they matched like i think they did last time?

    Please explain.

    Errr .. allegedly! ;)

    Seppala Interview on Sky Sports News

    75% OR GREATER, is the declaration required by Companies House, so it could be 100% for all we know. He also owns >75% of shares in ACL and Wasps Finance PLC.

    Women's World Cup 2019

    They should simply adopt the TV Match Official approach of rugby, which in general works very well. They monitor the game all the way through and call in things that the ref has missed. They also award tries but can ask the TMO to confirm if there is any doubt. It's a lot fucking simpler to...

    Women's World Cup 2019

    Sorry but that England Cameroon game was non-league at best towards the end. And i don't mean the histrionics - the quality of football.

    Where do I stand legally?

    The OP doesn't quite make it clear, but i have taken it to mean it is a stand-alone structure rather than an extension.

    Seppala Interview on Sky Sports News

    Just maybe she didn't like the control Coleman tried to exert, and that it was he who was holding the club back. Has she bought him out, i wonder. and told him to do one?

    Where do I stand legally?

    The proportion of the size of the building is immaterial in the case of sheds, swimming pools, summerhouses, etc, when the height of the roof or the eaves is key (it's 2.5m not 2.4 as i stated previously). In addition, development of "a structure incidental to the enjoyment of a dwelling"...
