    Bolton Latest Announcement

    I'm saying that it seems that people now seem to have got as much footy as they want or have time to watch. It's only anecdotal but there seems to be a lot more people who're deciding to get rid of their Sky Sports packages. The rights packages are more spread out between providers than before...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    To be fair the US does enforce a base standard - it just happens to be lower than ours (and ours is hardly amazing). They'd rather spend trillions of fancy weapons and surveillance systems because they're cool, so make a massive thing about a very small number of extremists. Food standards and...

    People said the same when the PL came along - it can be changed if the will is there. As I've said before I'm not for salary caps on individuals, and I only think a team salary cap should be related to the income you make. So many teams that get relegated rely on those parachute payments to...

    England cricket 2019

    Maybe you've misunderstood me. I didn't mean the ENTIRE line up was one day specialists. Burns, Denly and Root aren', but given how quickly they're getting outt. But apart from that it is heavily limited overs weighted. Roy, Buttler, Bairstow and Stokes all have games that are more favoured to...

    Should CCFC get on board with this?

    Not sure about them being free unless on certain benefits, although I wouldn't be against a proposal to help someone with basic decency and hygiene. You'd be horrified if loo paper, soap and hand drying facilities weren't provided. It's more how would you stop someone abusing it and just nicking...

    England cricket 2019

    Explain. What part of that is untrue? The Aussie bowling is, on the whole, disciplined. Our batters primarily favour limited overs and are used to trying to score of every ball. Just because we had a day or two where the batsmen concentrated and played more conservative cricket (except at the...

    I wasn't just talking about chlorinated chicken (I believe the EU allow chlorine washes of vegetables) and we do have some poor quality processed food out there. In general US foods seem to have more additives, preservatives, salt etc. Our food producers would almost be forced into following...

    On the whole I agree that if a business cannot make enough money or produce its product/service at a low enough cost is should be left to go out of existence. Difference with this is that they're part of the fabric of a community as well as businesses and drivers of the local economy and job...

    England cricket 2019

    It's the fact their bowling is, on the whole, very disciplined. It puts the pressure on and they don't let you have much at all. With our one-day batting lineup they're used to scoring quickly, patience isn't their virtue and as we've seen before too long they'll be swinging at stuff.

    I think Root would be better at four. He had a great second innings but he does struggle more often at 3, esp with openers that get out quickly. But who else that bats sensibly can come into the top three? As I've said Denly I'd open with - he's far from ideal but he tends to occupy the crease...

    VAR

    Agree. With handball it needs to be definitive, not subjective as to whether it was deliberate or not. Same with offsides - no active/inactive. On the pitch = active. I also think it should be allowed to bring potential red cards incidents to the refs attention, but it shouldn't make the...

    Maybe, but the PL won't care. They've still got the money flowing in so that's what matters. An ex-member is of no concern to them, which is the problem with the whole set-up. The can take all the advantages but disassociate themselves from all the problems it causes.

    Bolton Latest Announcement

    I still wonder how the league would deal with the promotion/relegation issue. Would they just promote more teams from the leagues below to fill the spaces or not relegate teams? With their often being issues regarding stadia, esp between league and non-league I expect the latter. I've got a...

    We shall see. To me he still seems to have his head in the clouds on positive thinking and tech that doesn't exist. In his defence it is good to see him challenging the US about a future trade deal, who seem to think it should almost be one way. Whether Boris actually follows through or whether...

    England cricket 2019

    Amazing game of cricket. From adject to sublime. One of the best innings ever seen. Even the drama that we should've lost by a run by umpire got it wrong. Aus took some wonderful catches and then let it slip with fielding errors. Had absolutely everything. Grendel - today was a day for Stokes...
