    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Agreed, there is that risk. Quite a few commentators were advising against any ceasefire as thats exactly what he’d use it for. However if there was a formal agreement it’s likely the west would still ensure Ukraine and border countries are also fully armed/rearmed. I do wonder if Putin might...

    £14.8 million - combined squad value

    I’d like to think minimum, assuming Vik continues current form until end of season

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    A couple of issues might change this though. Russia appears to continue to struggle militarily (other than indiscriminate bombing) and there are rumours of severe supply shortages, this means even if they ‘win’, they could be turned over again relatively quickly. By all accounts they won’t have...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Hmmm, I obviously don’t know for sure but I’d be surprised if ex special forces didn’t know what they were getting into in terms of aircraft attacks etc. That hum dunkin (and a few other posters) are making out that ex army volunteers did a runner at first sign of trouble but reading some of the...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Great post. Hope it’s correct, if so, Russia’s ability to fight and take control of cities will continue to reduce. unfortunately that might lead to more indiscriminate bombing in the short term. Longer term they’ll be struggling

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    This would be great news but I just can’t see Putin backing down unless he can take a ‘win’ back to Russia. Maybe there is something Ukraine are willing to offer so Putin can save face

    Root and management need to sort this shit out. Flogged Archer (a potential superstar) to injury, Wood is known to be fragile and now putting stokes through the mill. They’ve picked a squad that puts too much pressure on certain bowlers.

    Wow, what a second half. Both teams decided to stop defending, could easily have been something like 8-3. Some great performances, in particular Vik, Allen and JCS…gutted Ohare didn’t get his hat trick Typical city, a couple of losses on the bounce and then put in an attacking performance like...

    Grew into game. Confidence looked shot early doors but great last 10-15. Hamer should’ve squared that, great break by Allen tho. Refs turd

    I think take ups been pretty good in higher risk/older age categories. Just checked and totals 67% of over 12s. Not seen breakdown but guessing say over 40s will be high (85%-90%)

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    I might be wrong but I think the legislation made the legal requirements messier

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    To be fair the government lawyers have probably been working on this for a while. The government rightly stayed non committal in public I was getting frustrated with the delays but can kind of see why it’s been taking a while now, legal case has got to be water tight. Although I don’t think it...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    I’ve always felt we/NATO could have left our involvement/interference a bit more ambiguous and put some lines in the sand around targeting civilians and nuclear reactors for example. However I also wonder whether Putin wants us to get involved so he could argue he’s been proven right, nato are...

    Yeah, attack didnt look too frightening on paper and might prove to be the case. Also risky with Wood fragile and Robinson struggling for full fitness - both we’re unlikely to be fit for whole tour. I heard Mark Butcher speaking and agree with him that you’d maybe have rested Anderson and saved...
