Wish I was there rather than stuck in the office!

This is a key point. We're not run on a shoestring budget now. If players are being coached by an elite setup then they should be up to standard. A player like Simms is not a kid we're taking a punt on and he's shown he can score goals. If the manager and coaching staff can't get the best out of...

So short sighted. They still seem to be clinging to the idea that these IPL franchises they have bought the teams and are rebranding will happily play this dumb format and not want to change it to a T20 competition. Once that happens how long before the 'why have we got two T20 competitions'...

Its a crazy way to treat any player but Simms scored 19 goals for us the season before last, not like he's a no-hoper. He absolutely does not seem the type to have an attitude problem or anything like that. Just seems like people have singled him out as a target and now no matter what they're on...

Think its hard to say no way back when we have zero clue what has happened but its not great to be bombing out players. Seems a bit old school and that's what we're supposed to have moved on from with a fleet of staff to solve every problem.

Hopefully just paper talk. Losing Rudoni to a Prem team would be one thing, any player would want that move. Losing him to a promotion rival with years left on his contract late in the window is a whole other situation. I've said before I've got a feeling there's a suckerpunch coming at the...

Don't know why you all listen to it week in week out when all you do is complain its shit, use the off button!

So dead in here I can get signal!

Maybe we have to make a payment if he plays another game

I love the idea that a football forum is the go to place for lefties.

There's an academy twitter account but nothing gets posted there anymore

There won't be many people betting on where Vardy is going so if its on a facebook group or whatsapp and a few idiots start putting money on the odds will soon change. Doesn't mean anything.

Another one today from the things the ECB said would never happen file. The IPL team that has invested in Manchester Originals have confirmed their name will be changing to match the IPL brand.

Can't possibly imagine what they mean by 'look foreign'

I get what you mean but how many clubs have statiums that make them a profit? A place to play is a cost. Owning it removes any uncertainty about it being sold from under you. No matter how well you get on with the current owners ultimately you don't own it and there's always a possibility of...

Can remember games at C&NW but not Griff. My Dad would tell me about games being played at Courtaulds. Sad that there's little chance we'll ever see a game in Cov again. Not sure there's even that much rec cricket around in the area these days. I used to play at Highway but that's disappeared...

In completely shocking news that nobody could see coming the ECB are 'revamping' the Blast. Revamping seems to mean reduce the number of games which will of course fuck over the non-Hundred hosting counties as they are reliant on the Blast for income.

Love the idea that Israel spend insane amounts of money on advertising their propaganda because they don't give a shit what anyone thinks

Great game tonight between Sabalenka and Raducanu. The world number one ended up winning 7-6 4-6 7-6. Think that's it for the Brits at Cincinnati.

I spent the first 18 months trying to sort out my Dads care with the local C&W NHS before it was decided we needed ICBs, whose main role seemed to be withdrawing funding from as many people as possible. The process with them was ongoing until I received a letter saying there's going to be...
