That's exactly it, all about the money. There are students who have been asking for their timetables prior to returning and being told they weren't ready, when they went back they were then told the course would be entirely online. But they were also told that if they left their accommodation...

Seen farmers already saying they will have no choice but to lower welfare standards. If they don't they won't be able to compete on cost.

There's no reason for them to exist. Every contract should have a clause about wage reductions in the event of relegation.

Hearing the likes of Peterborough and FGR saying they are in favour of the plan reading between the lines the implication is they will never be sustainable Championship clubs. As we're seeing the gap between L1 and the Championship is huge. If there is a large group of clubs who feel similar...

The chap that runs the Henley action group posted it. The housing thing is interesting as its long been put forward by those campaigning that part of the site would be sold for housing to pay for the other work. Of course that is being denied as one of the reasons being given that it should be...

See that they've moved workers in and started on the site before the planning meeting to decide if they have permission for the works to go ahead or not.

There's a lot of competition but this is one if the dumbest things they've done. Introduce a new tier system then ping an alert to anyone who has the app installed telling them their risk has changed and, at best, its now minimum. Already had my Mum on the phone in a panic as I put the app on...

What a surprise. Wonder how much money has been blown on this. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/oct/13/operation-moonshot-doubts-over-uk-covid-saliva-tests-plan-after-trial-scaled-back Again this is something where we seem to be trying to reinvent the wheel. There's tests already available...

Can't find the link now but I saw some tweets from an Epidemiologist, think from the University of Southampton, after Van Tam said kids under 16 weren't impacting transmission. She was saying that the data he was basing this on actually shows that primary school kids show limited transmission...

What they're doing is exactly what members of Sage were saying here in interviews over the summer. If you want to open schools something else will need to close to compensate. Of course that was ignored and we tried to open everything up and came up against another 'nobody could have predicted...

Comical listening to Jenrick on LBC trying to explain what counts as a meal. Going to a pub and having a pasty and pint is out, going to the pub and having a pasty that comes with salad and a pint absolutely fine.

Fingers crossed but I'd be surprised. We came into the division knowing the situation and have pretty much the lowest wage bill, plus no ground to maintain!

The Palladium pictures are mad, there's no way they have maintained 2 metre distancing even though they did once the pics started circulating. Also, having been to the Palladium I'm struggling to believe anything remotely resembling distancing was maintained in the areas outside the main...

The more I think about a Euro League there more I think a lot of clubs wouldn't go for it. Would any Bundeslida teams leave? Would Barca and Real want to move from winning the league every year to the possibility of years without a title. When was the last time one of Inter, AC or Juve didn't...

It was impossible to predict something like that would happen if you give people 48 hours lockdown notice,

Don't want any club to go out of business but from a purely selfish point of view if 6 more teams got points deductions it makes survival a lot easier.

This seems back to front to me. Shouldn't the numbers dictate what tier an area is in, or at the very least shouldn't this be centrally controlled and not something thats up for discussion? Council's shouldn't be having to approach the government to be moved to the most suitable tier.

Its disgraceful. Just on the Sport England objection alone it should have been rejected, they absolutely ripped Wasps apart and basically said they were lying in their application. If you were the suspicious type you might wonder why local politicians and planning officers seem to do...

Like how the article also casually slips in that the two homes were built in breach of planning laws. Shouldn't there be some action about that as well?

This is obviously a very small sample size but my 72 year old Mum, who has voted Conservative all her life, was raving about Andy Burnham a couple of days ago.
