I know I've said this before but it amazes me that the RFU and Premiership Rugby can look at the financial mess a sport like football is in and decide to follow the same path.

We have them with the added bonus that as its not counted as work they are all held outside of work hours. Its pretty difficult to keep coming up with excuses when we're in lockdown!

Didn't know you were one of my companies clients :D My first job today was trying to undo the complete mess the helpdesk had made of someone's laptop. Poor bloke only wanted an Outlook add-in loading and ended up with a completely destroyed laptop he couldn't do anything on. Would be nice if...

The problem isn't so much the modelling its the way its reported. The modelling reports I've looked at are always heavily caveated around the unknowns. In the case of the delta variant there was not knowing how it impacted the R and if those who got it were more or less likely to be seriously...

Think the rules as they were at the time apply in the Ricoh dispute. Is anything even happening with that? Aren't we about a year past when we were supposed to find out from the commission if they were going to take it any further?

It's a terrible system that badly needs modernising. You seem to end up paying a fortune to get hold of information that could be made available at the click of a button.

Can people not just enjoy a win. My twitter feed is full of people either complaining that Sterling is not on the cover of the papers or complaining that he is on the cover of the Mail and The Sun who apparently aren't allowed to use his picture because they've given him stick in the past.

If the club can pull that off it will be one of the greatest transfer deals in history!

What more does he have to do? The only England bowler to have taken 150 wickets in ODIs and have a better strike rate than him is Flintoff!

Only person in my department who likes football, guess whose been told they can't finish early :mad:

Wouldn't hold your breath. That's been mentioned many times in relation to taking time off for quarantine and nothing has been done. And then of course you have to asses how many people would take the piss and constantly be saying they were infectious to get a few days off. It is annoying...

The good news is that has already been considered and there are 'no questions asked' vaccination clinics for the likes of the homeless and others who may not have documentation. Suspect the problem is going to be getting the message across and will need the assistance of people in those...

Last summer the government was suggesting that moving forward we could be doing similar tests for flu and those that are sick would be encouraged to stay at home. They spoke about learning lessons from covid and applying it elsewhere. A change from the culture of it being seen as a good thing if...

Did they ever actually admit transmission in schools was a thing after months of denying it?

Might have to consider it. Although the only other doctors nearby shut down pre-coivd. Local doctors surgeries seem to be a thing of the past now which isn't great with an ageing population many of whom will be like my parents and have mobility issues. Had to go into the supposedly closed...

You seem to the only person that thinks Labour have even the slightest chance of winning the by-election!

That's the problem. We saw that in the general election. The Conservatives doing shit like their fake fact checking site knowing perfectly well that an apology afterwards was insignificant, it had already had its desired impact.

Its weird. He's not a stupid bloke but seems to have no given this the slightest thought. As an internationally touring band he'll know the restrictions there are in place to tour non-EU countries, and they've been around long enough to remember the days of touring before freedom of movement in...

Also depends what type of signings are coming in. 3-4 genuine first teams and a couple of strong backups is better than 1 decent player and a 7 Kasta type signings.

Depends how you want to take it. The article also says 'remains confident that he should have most of his targets in place by the middle of July' and 'we are in a decent position, in fairness, in terms of what we have done and over the next few days things will start to come to fruition'. Some...
