Just on my way for the first time in a while, life getting in the way. There's a noticeable sense of excitement about the place these days. Very welcome change.

Suggestion from Henry Winter on twitter that the BBC could now be in breach of contract with the Premier League for failing to provide the required level of coverage Obviously pulling PL coverage from the BBC would be the league shooting itself in the foot but you can imagine there will be some...

You’ve heard Matterface and Dixon then 😂

They don’t seem to have considered that the likes of Wright and Shearer aren’t exactly desperate for cash and the likes of Scott have a load of non BBC media jobs and all of them would most likely walk into a prominent role at Sky if they became available

Henry Winter is suggesting the show won't air at all now. Seems players and managers have informed the BBC they won't be participating in any media duties

5Live currently airing old podcast episodes instead of scheduled programming and their reporters for this afternoons games are starting to withdraw.

Have it on in the background most weeks. Although I do find it utterly bizarre that the BBC insist on scheduling it so the first live game of the day on BT starts halfway through the show.

Not to mention that for years there was a simple and effective solution if trouble was expected. Keep the away fans in for 10 mins after the game.

Weather being a bit better than expected might help the walk up. At one point this week the forecast for this afternoon was snow and sub zero temperatures.

Final Score might be next

Rather hilariously the BBCs editorial guidelines on impartiality gives examples of which type of employees should avoid subjects like politics. Have a guess what one of the roles it states it isn't really an issue for The worrying thing for me is nothing in his tweet was factually incorrect...

According to the Mail, so take it with a pinch of salt, the production team are talking with their union to see if they can walk out. Although it seems they may require a ballot first which wouldn't happen before Saturdays show

I suspect if you made that point in a SAG meeting they would all start congratulating themselves on how effective the measures they put in place have been Part of the issue here is there's 10K empty seats every week, there's not really a huge incentive for the club to push for change. Might be...

I think a lot of people would be concerned if we were getting 1m asylum applications annually. the biggest concern would be what on earth had happened to cause such a huge increase the latest government figures are 63,089 applications for the year ending June 2022, a 1,500% increase would...

There's an article on the BBC site on how many people have been able to enter the country legally. The numbers are shocking UK Resettlement Scheme - 1,125 (target was 5,000 a year) Community Sponsorship Scheme - 144 Refugee Family Reunion - 6,134 Mandate Resettlement Scheme - 2 Can't see...

Got one for myself, struggle to get to games these days but at that price it's a steal. What more do people want? New owner, play off push, no player sales in January If they made it £20 a game there would still be people moaning its too much

Frazers Plus has to be a good sign, they're hardly going to sponsor the team and kick us out the stadium!

when people say stuff like this about Shugs you always have to go and check because there's a good chance anything that sounds too stupid to be real is actually something he's come out with
