    Where in the country are we all from?

    Arrizabalaga vs Sarri

    Player power. Teammates should have dragged him off. No respect for the manager, once that happens it's downhill for the gaffer.

    I remember the great middleweight boxers like Hagler, Hearns, Sugar Ray Leonard,Duran, and those great fights between Benn and Eubank. You have to feel sorry for today's middleweight boxers having to emulate that lot !

    Six Nations 2019

    The "commentators"ruined it for me. And as Brian Moore is a solicitor he's obsessed with the law and rules etc. They were like old women gossiping instead of being neutral presenters. My late father used to turn the volume off and just watched sport in silence, he hated all"experts" and I now...
