    Pitch

    Anything is possible if you throw enough money at it but I think we all know Wasps aren't in a position to be throwing money at anything. Prepare for another season of a poor pitch and promises being made that things will improve.

    Sounds like another successful well organised event.

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    I'm sure a midday slot on a tiny stage at Glastonbury will be the thing that grabs all the attention this weekend.

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Why do people get surprised when anyone political appears at Glastonbury to give a speech. It happens every year and loads of people give them. Its not like its all music and then he popped in the middle of someone's set. My MP, Zarah Sultana, is there today talking about the cost of living...

    Why do they need snipers at football games? Imagine if the stewards at the CBS were armed!

    Wasps downward spiral...

    There's an interesting post on the Premiership Rugby site about this seasons viewing figures. It is of course presented as everything is fantastic & record viewing figures but scratch the surface and its a very different story and just shows yet again that any notion of some huge expansion in...

    There won't stop there that's for sure. Judge Thomas in his concurring opinion mentioned overturning Griswold (which is the right to contraception), Obergefell (the right to same-sex marriage) and Lawrence (which covers gay sex).

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Have you got anything to suggest Wasps are no longer seeking public money as I haven't seen that reported anywhere. In fact the only mention I've seen in the last few days is the possibility of funding from Coventry Council.

    Adam Hose is on fire in the Blast at the moment. What a knock tonight, century off 51 balls.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Why? Nothing has changed has it unless I've missed something. Wasps are still trying to get public money and haven't said under what pretence, there's still no information on how they are going to fund the bond repayment or when it will happen.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I'm aware of that but that wasn't my motivation for buying a house hence why I queried the assertion that people only buy property to 'better themselves'. In any case how does the property value increasing actually benefit me? I can't realise that value without selling it and then I have...

    Lynch just highlights how low are expectations are these days. When you break it down he just has a handle on the basic facts of what he's dealing with and nobody seems able to cope with that.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    What do you mean by better themselves? I bought a house as I need somewhere to live. My rent was £950 a month for a house that was in a shit state of repair, I moved to an identical house on the same road, well actually not identical as this one has an extension, and the mortgage is £510 a...

    Think this is an important point. Even when we had low inflation wages were lagging. I've just calculated mine using the BoE inflation calculator and even before the current surge in inflation I've effectively had a 15% pay cut since 2010. If inflation is now running at 10% plus and pay rises...

    Just turned the test on to hear, 'more as this story unfolds', sounds like they were talking about racism. whats happened now?

    As with many things its finding a balance isn't it. I don't have a problem with people that want to work hard and do 20 hour days or constantly study to get some reward, the issue is the disparity. For me anyone who is working full time, in whatever job, should be able to sustain a basic...

    I'd say it was shocking but it really isn't. we all know they'll find a way to hand over more money and bail them out again.
