runs in the party it seems https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c04vqzp6x31o

One of the big teams at home, sell out and on TV for a bit of cash and a plucky defeat so there's no distractions.

Couldn't find a thread so figured I'd start one. After the absolute shambles of a draw, highlights including Trump being given a made up peace prize, the people doing the draw having no clue how to pronounce the countries they'd drawn and for unknown reasons a performance by the Village People...

Good news, we're going to smash the third test. Having decided we practiced too much for the second test they're not bothering with that this time round and are going on a team holiday. Tough life https://www.visitnoosa.com.au/

First two episodes of War Between the Land and the Sea were excellent. Definitely worth a catch up on iplayer if you missed it.

They have these at my surgery and give you no indication you are seeing on of those rather than a qualified GP. Unless you hit the point of them telling you 'I can't do that, you need to see a GP'. Read an article a while back that we now have qualified GPs struggling to get jobs because...

When I go to pick up my prescription there's an ad playing for 'be seen immediately, private GP appointments at £65 a go. If I go on to the app my surgery uses for basic admin it pushes a similar service. Not hard to see the direction that GPs want to push things in.

Sounds simple in practice, how would it work in reality. Firstly who is responsible for the administration of this charge and how much does doing that admin cost. What happens if people can't / won't pay, does an expensive debt recovery process start for the sake of £10? Presumably you can't...

perfect time for this thread https://www.theguardian.com/society/2025/dec/07/referrals-black-hole-means-patients-in-england-miss-out-on-healthcare-finds-watchdog

I spent 3 days in A&E a while back as they didn't quite know what to do with me. Was quite an eye opener. What you've highlighted here is essentially the problem, although it applies to far more than GPs. Other services have had funding cut to such an extent that they, to any practical extent...

Don’t worry lads, Baz has worked out the problem. We’ve been practicing too much.

We got a suspended 5 point penalty which only came into effect if we had further issues after the pitch was sorted.

well at least this should persuade King to get the cheque book out in January

Of course he scores

its complete insanity that a ref can be so incompetent with zero repercussions but if a manager or player points it out they get in trouble

that run of clean sheets seems a long time ago now. not sure we can just rely on scoring three or four every week

Fucks sake. They don't deserve that.

I just don't understand how the officiating can be so bad week in week out and not a thing is done to improve it
