    IMO they aren't that bad. I mean they're not good but in the grand scheme of things not really sure they warrant a suspension nearly 10 years on. Although as a middle aged white male I'm possibly not in the best position to judge! Hopefully these are hidden for those that don't want to see.

    This is the issue for me. Leaving aside the issue of someone deciding to dig through years of tweets to try and unearth something when he makes his test debut he made the tweets in 2012 & 2013. How old does a tweet have to be before its inconsequential or is this now the norm and anyone who made...

    New supporters club near town?

    Certainly was. Not sure being able to watch ifollow will stop a significant number of people attending. Needs to be looked into as people will watch the stream whether its available legally or not so how much benefit is it to block people who want to give the club money?

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Bloody hope its good news. If we get through the end of this week and start of next week without hospitalisations increasing then we should be looking good. Was just looking at the stats and while cases have risen 49% in a week the number of tests conducted has dropped 23.4%. Bit surprised at...

    Osaka.

    The on court interviews weren't the issue. She was still doing those.

    Osaka.

    Certainly looks that way. https://apnews.com/article/meghan-markle-naomi-osaka-osaka-french-open-tennis-ff9a4ed6166c3845efc14e3e6152804a https://edition.cnn.com/2021/06/01/business/naomi-osaka-nike-sponsors/index.html...

    Hope Joe Root is getting a nice cheque for making himself look a complete tit in those glasses 😎

    Given how many clubs run at a loss other clubs must borrow. Is it being suggested that every club in the country that isn't self sufficient is being funded by owners either gifting the funds or loaning them with zero interest? May well be the case but seems unlikely that we're the only club in...

    In terms of interest rates if a company with the trading history similar to the club wanted to run a debt of 7 or 8 figures from a commercial lender what sort of interest rate we would be looking at?

    Osaka.

    Unless I've missed something she wasn't refusing to wear her sponsors logo on her shirt. So every piece of footage of her from the tournament would carry that logo. Now she's not playing it won't.

    Osaka.

    Just a quick follow up. A dig around on the French Open website, as they aren't exactly prominently featured, shows they have 20 tournament sponsors. Of those 20 there is only 1 whose logo features in the press conferences, the primary sponsor whose logo is also all around the court. The press...

    Osaka.

    Quick question about sponsorship. Lets say company ABC sponsors a player. That player then carries the companies logo on their shirt, they carry out PR and advertising for the company, maybe appear in adverts for them. The player does a post game press conference which see's a one line quote...

    Anyone that has booked anything without checking they are covered for alternations and / or cancellations only has themselves to blame.

    Looks like we could lose a whole day today. On the plus side weekend forecast is decent and with a day lost we should get 2 full days of play.

    Insomnia

    I used the Headspace app for a bit but there's less than 2 weeks worth of sleep casts on there that I use (don't like having a bloke talking me to sleep!) so it get repetitive fast. Tried podcasts but I end up listening to them rather than sleeping. So its back to music. I really need to spend...

    Can't get my head around anyone paying to watch a circus like this, let alone enough to give him that sort of payday.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Why does the simple concept of supply and demand not relate to jobs? Makes me annoyed when I see articles on skills shortages like the one today on the BBC site. On the rare occasion that we try to replace someone who has left with someone that knows what they're doing we end up with a vacant...
