    3 clubs there already who (take out one-off stadium fixtures) struggle to get average gates of 10k. 2 of which are tenant clubs anyway.

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Always confuses me why Putin isn't more paranoid about China. They have also sorts of troops and weapons have much closer to Russia than NATO do. Modernizing their military at a massive rate and aren't exactly shy about expanding their areas of influence in the future

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Have to fear for how disciplined Ukrainians are going to be (seeing as many aren't regular troops) when they retake these areas and deal with collaborators. Liberal democracy is found in few countries outside the EU and several within aren't keen on the concept. It appeals to stable countries...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Would be surprised. Catastrophic politically if one got caught. Hi Tec assistance can be provided from distance. Also NATO going to great lengths & expense to train large numbers of Ukrainians on their own countries rather than provide "on site" training.

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Had a case here about 15 years ago. Armenian and Azeri officers on a training course. Azeri officer basically chopped up Armenian officer with an axe while he was in bed. Sentenced to life here then was supposed to go backto Azerbajian to serve out his sentence but their President pardoned him...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Someone breaks into your house and leaves his jemmy there. Then sends the police around to fetch it for him as it's his property.

    The official NFL Thread

    Vikings unrecognisable from last year despite few player changes. Cousins found some bottle. Still believe JJ is a top 3 WR. Change of mindset on and off the field so noticeable. But a road trip to Eagles will see where this team really is.

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Russia just convened a meeting of un security council demanding Ukraine should return all illegally captured arms and munitions 😂

    F1 2022

    It's all still so car-dominated. Verstappen rips through almost uncontested in basically first 3 laps. Was never close. Even podium positions are rarely competitive. At least Red bull occasionally challenged during the Mercedes years. This is a slaughter. Max can stop Turning up for last 5...

    Sounds so punty. "We're in a huge mess but we can be the world no 1 by simply moving to Cov". Just seems like one of those Nigerian emails.

    Bills make a statement. But Stafford must have thought he was back in Detroit with that garbage O line.

    Has London Bridge fallen ?

    Don't have much time for the rest of them but if you're going to have a monarch then she was the one you'd want. RIP God bless.

    Seems pretty likely. Maybe coincides with the ACL etc director changes from a couple of weeks ago.

    I'll keep banging this drum. Rugby Union isn't as big as it thinks it is. Basically entire North of the country covered by 2 professional Union clubs who can't manage attendances of more 13k between them. How can so many large cities have no professional team? Birmingham, Liverpool Rugby special...

    All outrageous. One of the main things senior people involved did to get fellow council members on board (and back selling to Wasps) was the push "economic development of the area around the Arena" angle. Nothing done since then apart from block a new hotel & Macdonalds next to the Arena

    kind of ironic in that Worcester weren't happy with Wasps moving into the area in the first place - youth recruitment and poaching supporters

    yep on the junk yard. Wanted to have a Marriott and Macdonalds as well. Council said out of the centre and traffic issues.

    Probably difficult to find investors to build a hotel in these COVID times and all the bond furore wouldn't have helped.
