    Don't think that's particularly controversial tbh. Needs testing and tracing to be up to standard and unfortunately we're not exactly 'world leading' at either.

    Grenfell files lost forever

    This is clearly BS. They aren't even claiming they were accidentally lost. The story is that this chap left the company so erased everything off the laptop. Even if you believe he had the only copy of the document, which clearly wouldn't be the case, you'd pass the data over before wiping the...

    Was he really charging / accepting donations for a dodgy feed? It was bad enough when I thought he was just letting a thousand or so people watch for free, depriving the club of income. For him to be making money out of it is bang out of order.

    We seem to be sleep walking into the same, if not worse, situation we were in earlier in the year. Yet again we seem to be a few weeks behind mainland Europe but seem to think what’s happening there won’t happen here.

    Match Thread Gillingham Away

    Try Freeview, think CWR is channel 719 and you only get it if you’re in the area so might not be blocked.

    IMO dodgy steams for games not officially being made available to fans in the UK is very different to using those streams when you have an official option available for a tenner where desperately needed money goes to the club.

    Sorry to hear that mate. Good news that the wife has already sorted something else out. Hopefully that will keep your head above water until things start getting back to normal.

    How long until

    Isn’t that the second issue they’ve had this season already? Assume a lot of them have day jobs, can’t imagine employers being too impressed if this keeps happening.

    Ermmm, hello 😏⚽️

    The quote doesn't really match the headline unfortunately. "The EFL remains in discussions with the government about the pilot programme which may include a limited number of further pilot matches during September with capacity limited to 1,000". There may be a limited number of games used as...

    Sad news, not sure how they can lose this many jobs without it having a significant impact on their operations. Fingers crossed grass roots doesn't take a big hit. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/54161886

    Spent some time this morning working out just how screwed I'd be if I'm not back in work when furlough ends. Anyone who thinks living on benefits is an easy life might want to try running through the entitledto website and seeing what you'd be expected to live on. Mine ends up as £409.89 a...

    Not sure why people are complaining about tests, Patel was on TV this morning and was very clear, "tests are available" and "its wrong to say tests are not available". I made the same mistake, although the way the data is presented is pretty misleading. The total test capacity number the...

    Couldn't read the story as the FT have it behind a paywall but I've found an Indian report which seems to come from the same interview. He works for the Serum Institute of India and seems to be suggesting that India doesn't have the infrastructure or manufacturing capacity to delver vaccines to...

    Not entirely sure how it works. Presumably if the Cambridge University one comes off we're at the front of the queue. If its another vaccine that is the one we need are the pharma companies going to be dicks about who owns the rights or just let every country manufacture it themselves?

    Knew it was something pretty big as the BBC have cleared the schedule for a Sky At Night special this evening. The way things are going here I'm up for moving to Venus.

    This of course illustrates the issue with not collecting enough data but lets go with 3.4m from the Imperial College recent study. Even if you take the bottom end figure for herd immunity to kick in at 60% you're still looking at half a million deaths. Now it may be the mortality rate changes if...
