    Got that completely wrong. Two tests confirmed for January in Sri Lanka and India to follow in February. Not sure I'd have risked it to be honest.

    Take the knee

    He seems to use the word 'negru', which is apparently a Romainian word for black. Is it just that someone has picked up on negru and thought it was something worse? Would everyone walk off if a black person was described as black? There was a chap from some anti-racism group on the news...

    Match Thread Luton

    Think the Sky commentator is watching a different game. Was just praising Luton players for not making a meal of fouls and now he's praising the ref for booking Luton players when they foul.

    The story doing the rounds on twitter is the 4th official called the Istanbul assistant coach, Pierre Webo, the n-word. Really hope doesn't turn out to be true.

    The Sky games are behind as well. Think its delivered via your internet connection and not satellite if its a red button midweek game.

    build round the fucker

    Wouldn't you expect a lease for that length of time covering a city centre property to have a clause in it allowing the council to move them if needed. City centre redevelopment is hardly an unheard of concept. Also if they're £60K in arrears aren't they in breach? Kick them out!

    All purpose cricket thread

    Just realised as I started the thread I can change the title so we're not stuck on Englands 2019/20 tour anymore! Tour to SA descend into farce. Postponed games, then cancelled due. Players all coming home due to failed tests which now turn out to be false positives. Not sure we'll get any...

    How will it work then? If huge chunks of students have been missing weeks and there's no time to catch up on that work then surely if you grade in the same way as other years there's going to be a problem. Or are we just accepting that the main aim of exam results is to push people through to...

    Blues fold Academy

    that's true. but if you take it to its logical conclusion and every team closes their academy because its better to pick up out of contract players where are those players coming from? If we're going to rely on private academies then we need to be sure of their long term viability. Or are they...

    Blues fold Academy

    But out of those isn't Marosi the only one that didn't come through the academy system? Just because they didn't come through ours doesn't invalidate it, if all clubs close their academies that out of contract pool of talent disappears.

    Take the knee

    I'm not sure how you could take booing of the players taking the knee as anything other than a racist gesture when the players explicitly stated they were taking a knee purely against discrimination and not in agreement with any political messaging or ideology.

    Take the knee

    He does't really as the players made a statement before the game explicitly stating it wasn't in support of a political movement.
