    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    He's also got to go to the right place before there can be any 'winning'. He's twice said he's going to Russia to speak with Putin, the meeting is in Alaska.

    Exactly, crowds were growing year on year, streaming was proving to be a big success. Finals day was pretty much the biggest day of domestic cricket every year. It was far from perfect and there was absolutely ways to improve things but its never had a fraction of the resources the Hundred has.

    cricket 2025

    Thought this weeks Sky Sports Cricket podcast was some sort of parody. They spent a good chunk of it discussing how the problem with the Hundred is that people don't care about the teams because they have no history. Alongside that people don't care about the players because they aren't players...

    Slagging off players needs to stop.

    There's no way they don't look. It would be impossible to resist even when you know it's going to be a load of idiots talking shit.

    12 year old raped in nuneaton

    I may be oversimplifying here but for me we just come back to getting people properly processed quickly and by people that known what they're doing so we don't have such a large number of cases successfully going to appeal. Get the numbers down so we can process people within days or weeks of...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I'm just glad that after 200 days in the job Vance has managed to fit a much deserved holiday in. After all he's only had holidays in Vermont, Disneyland, North Dakota, Cincinnati, India. Greenland, The Vatican and probably a few I've missed since taking the job. Sure the locals won't be...

    Surely he isn't planning to institutionalise homeless people?

    The good news is coming thick and fast. Thought I was old enough to be dead and gone before the game was totally destroyed but I'm starting to wonder. Its obvious the big 3 just want to play each other and will just about tolerate throwing in occasional 3 test series against NZ, WI, SL and...

    Oxford tickets

    Sure I read that the supporters clubs were required to have the relevant number of season tickets with the required number of points and that tickets had to be used by that season ticket holder. Might have been from one of the supporters groups meetings minutes. Not sure what happens if clubs...

    County members are already questioning why they should pay for marginalized competitions (Metro Bank) and reduced number of games (Blast), along with county games being pushed to months when you're not likely to want to sit outside all day. The Hundred will be reformatted to T20, that seems an...

    Slagging off players needs to stop.

    This is a key point. We're not run on a shoestring budget now. If players are being coached by an elite setup then they should be up to standard. A player like Simms is not a kid we're taking a punt on and he's shown he can score goals. If the manager and coaching staff can't get the best out of...

    So short sighted. They still seem to be clinging to the idea that these IPL franchises they have bought the teams and are rebranding will happily play this dumb format and not want to change it to a T20 competition. Once that happens how long before the 'why have we got two T20 competitions'...

    Slagging off players needs to stop.

    Its a crazy way to treat any player but Simms scored 19 goals for us the season before last, not like he's a no-hoper. He absolutely does not seem the type to have an attitude problem or anything like that. Just seems like people have singled him out as a target and now no matter what they're on...

    Transfer Rumour Bassette to FC Utrecht

    Think its hard to say no way back when we have zero clue what has happened but its not great to be bombing out players. Seems a bit old school and that's what we're supposed to have moved on from with a fleet of staff to solve every problem.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Hopefully just paper talk. Losing Rudoni to a Prem team would be one thing, any player would want that move. Losing him to a promotion rival with years left on his contract late in the window is a whole other situation. I've said before I've got a feeling there's a suckerpunch coming at the...
