    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Heard on the radio a while back that there's an ever increasing number of GPs out of work. Seems GP practices, now of course not often run by GPs but by private companies, were offered an incentive to employ nurse practitioners, with the idea of them being able to take some of the load of GPs...

    Podcast Ep 32 - Cov's accounts discussed with football finance expert Kieran Maguire

    I don't get the King is SISU thing at all. I can believe King was owed money by them and thats how he ended up with the club. That makes sense when there's no other reason a non-Cov fan who we've never even heard of would suddenly decide to buy a club in the state we were in. But that's pretty...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Will need to wait to see if anything actually changes but this would be welcome. My GP had online booking pre-covid and it worked really well, especially for non-urgent stuff. You could book weeks, or even months, in advance and pick which GP you saw. It was switched off at the start of covid...

    Podcast Ep 32 - Cov's accounts discussed with football finance expert Kieran Maguire

    Can't see Frasers selling anytime soon, they seems to be investing a fair amount into the stadium and are looking at buying other grounds so clearly its part of their business plan. We don't know what we get for the rent these days do we? £1.3m for just 20 something days use of the pitch with...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    The state visit thing is a clever move. Plays perfectly into Trumps ego 'nobody has ever had two state visits' 😂 The problem is Trump is very much last person in the room so while he thinks Starmer and the UK are great now that may only last until someone tells him something different. Look...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Out of interest have you seen the documentary in question? I haven't, might give it a watch when I have time as links are all over social media. Striesand effect working well.

    Enemy to play at the CBS

    Think they mean after general sale which was this morning. Probably sold 99% in presale so they could post about how quickly it sold out. Luckily some kind chap sent me a link when they fucked up the presale emails (y) Think they're at a point where the Empire isn't big enough for them in Cov...

    How is Aled Williams employed?

    Dovin is obviously playing brilliantly at the moment. But personally I don't know enough about his play previously to know if this is down to Williams or not. Offsetting that is that we've had two keepers, in Moore & Collins, who have were both presumably signed to be first choice who...

    Apologies to Dean Austin

    This and the Lampard thread will be golddust for Grendal's spreadsheet when we're next on a bad run 😂

    Enemy to play at the CBS

    They didn't send the mails until the onsale time, which unless they've got a very small mailing list is going to take a while to reach everyone, and when they finally sent it they got the ticket link wrong and it didn't work :rolleyes:

    Enemy to play at the CBS

    Cheers mate, pisses me off that ticketing companies add ridiculous fees but nobody seems able to maintain a working platform. Every single on sale seems to have issues.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Its everywhere. look at how we were told covid / Ukraine was the cause of increasing food costs. then the supermarkets announced their financial results and profits were through the roof. You do wonder at what point people say enough is enough and what form that takes.

    Enemy to play at the CBS

    Supposed to be pre-sale at 10am but nobody seems to have received the email yet. Doing their best to make SISU-era ticketing look slick and efficient 😂

    Cricket 2024

    For the IPL teams it will be about control. They will no doubt push to change it to T20 and won't allow it to be played at any point other than the prime slot continuing the marginalisation of other cricket. Fear the ECB have started down a road to giving away control of the game and it will...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    As with most things it will be outsourced. There's plenty of catering companies who concentrate on educational establishments. Easy money for them, take all the cash and provide the bare minimum. There will be complaints the food is terrible and reviews started by individual schools but by the...
