The below is quite interesting. I assume as neither party wanted to press charges, the CPS thought they wouldn't get ABH, so went for Affray? - Assault: intentionally or recklessly placing a person in fear of the immediate application of unlawful force. Battery: intentional or reckless...

Yup, prosecution tried to reduce the charge and judge refused, so they must have known then there was little chance of success. As CD said, if every weekend fight ended up in court it'd be ridiculous!

Touch of class - Barnsley write supportive letter to fan who spoke of depression on social media I must say I'm getting quite a soft spot for Barnsley. How their terminally ill chairman handled his last few months was class too.

Yup, Curran's innings won us the match and he deservedly got MOTM. Great day there yest, very much reminded me of 2005 :emoji_relaxed::emoji_cricket:

Everyone apart from itsabuzzard...

Jeez, what would they write if they were the Morecambe Telegraph?...

Your stream's frozen SW. And don't get me started on the camera angle.

Belgium / Cameroon / W Germany - Bobby's Heroes, 300k at Luton airport on their return Columbia / Sweden / Croatia - Easy route and fluked results against poor teams...

Bob, take a telegram. "To Mr. C. Chaplin, Sennet Studios, Hollywood, California. Congrats stop. Have found only person in world less funny than you stop. Name: Baldrick stop. Signed, E. Blackadder stop". Oh, and put a P.S.: "Please, please, please... stop."

I am a bluff ol' traditionalist when it comes to cricket, but what a finish to a 14 over a side game! Pleased for the youngster Lester in only his 5th match bowling at the death to Root/Williamson!

Exactly. There's 18 months age difference between Ponti and Chaplin and we're talking about Chaplin like he's a wizened old pro! Maybe if Ponti gets the first team chances that Chaplin has had, they'll be on a similar footing in 18 month's time.

Yer, this ^. I don't think for a second Ponti will go out on loan. He'll get regular games with Max/JCH. You'd have thought with the midfield creativity we now appear to have that we'll create some chances and he can certainly finish...

I don't know about anyone else, but the longer this drags on, the more I really really want Chaplin to sign!

Funny, my view was the opposite! I figured that a game v Belgium would be like a Premier League match, so would even things out.

I'm fairly sure he was saying thanks to his mum for bringing him up alone rather than sticking two fingers up to the country, but you keep reading those tabloids.

So you don't think we'll win it CJ (btw for the oldies out there, I still think of Reggie Perrin when I write that...)? I've got a couple of mates out there who are pretty confident 'it's coming home'... Interesting to just read that the Croatia coach Dalic has highlighted Kane and Sterling as...

Exactly. Pace with the likes of Murphy, Kent, Gally, Huckerby and physical presence with the likes of Rosario, Roussel, Dublin (and maybe Biamou...). They all force the opposition to focus on your team rather than theirs and play a different way. I find it so bizarre that folk don't 'get it'...

'Them' being international football people with I'd guess over 1000 top flight games of experience or you? Erm. My view of Henderson has changed completely in this tournament and fair play to him. What would it take for you to be man enough to do the same with Sterling?...

3 ex-international defenders 'blindly defending him'...:emoji_joy:

Carefully balance 3 pints back from the bar...don't spill them as people around celebrate...give your mates theirs...and they just launch them! :emoji_joy:
