    Wasps signs have actually gone!!

    If that's the first offering from their new owners it doesn't look good for them. Looks like something a hacker would do!

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    This is the problem isn't it, not just on the railways but in pretty much everything. Over a decade of underfunding and stagnant wages means nothing is in a position to absorb a short term shock. You simply can't tell people to batten down the hatches for a couple of years when you've got nurses...

    Favourite TV Christmas specials

    Christmas one this year which sounds good. It's the first episode of a new series and I think they've got another series already filmed, either that or they filmed this one back to back with the last one, lost track.

    When did they change the rules, according to Peter Walton if you don't win the ball its always a foul Sums up the problem with refs, they can't admit they're wrong. Got three hugely experienced pros all saying no way its a pen and the ex-ref insisting it is

    All purpose cricket thread

    Bazball was summed up pretty well on TGC a week or so ago, "everyone keeps saying wait until it fails but it doesn't fucking fail". We're well down the line now and while we're not at an Ashes win guaranteed stage every time you think they've reached the point it might fail they pull it out the...
