    Match Thread Swindon Town Friendly

    Wonder if Kastaneer is looking for a club and can't find anyone to take him or is just happy to sit around doing nothing and get a wage. If he can't even make the bench in these friendlies (there's been no mention of him being injured has there?) then he's got no chance of playing a role in the...

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Think the cost that gets thrown around for the Ricoh is the cost for the entire site including the exhibition hall and shopping centre.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    We've been told for weeks one of the keys is to stay below 1,000 infections a day. In the last week we've passed that on 5 days including 1,441 yesterday. The government completely ignored that and eased the restrictions in place so I wouldn't have too much confidence they will respond to the R...

    WHO says it would be disastrous to allow stadium events this year. Expect the government to announce they will allow crowds imminently! https://www.nme.com/news/music/world-health-organisation-says-stadium-events-very-unrealistic-for-remainder-of-2020-2728382

    Are you deliberately missing the point? If he wears a mask its not to protect him its to protect others, its not to keep him safe. For him to be safe needs everyone else to wear a mask. People not wearing masks is endangering other people.

    These may help, here's a study showing the impact mask mandates had in various US states. https://www.healthaffairs.org/doi/10.1377/hlthaff.2020.00818 Here's a study that looks at transmission rates in countries where mask wearing is the norm compared to those where it isn't...

    As has just been explained to you the benefit of mask wearing is that you don't pass things on to other people. People are wearing them to protect others not themselves.

    Really hammers home how poor our enforcement is when they show other countries quarantine on the news. People in hotels which have had huge fences put up around them and the armed forces patrolling. Here you’re allowed to travel across the country and then we just hope people stay at home.

    Council funding for Ricoh Refurb

    Same with the Telegraph. Happy to report on councillors moaning before they’ve even seen any plans but zero mention of the things the councillors reported back from their meeting with UoW that could be viewed as positives.

    I can’t see it happening safely. The question is will it being unsafe stop them.

    Concrete Houses

    Lived in Canada for a year, it’s pretty common once you’re outside the big cities to buy a huge plot of land and build your own place exactly how you want it.

    Concrete Houses

    Looking at other countries and what you get for your money is incredibly depressing. Even in countries that are supposed to expensive. Got a couple of mates who moved to Australia, one to Sydney the other to the Gold Coast. One in Sydney used to have a small flat here, now lives in a huge...

    A place in the sun

    We switched the whole company to WFH and its been fine. Had a meeting a couple of weeks ago and everyone had to say if they wanted to go back into the office or not (even those of us who are furloughed). Literally every person said the same thing, they preferred working from home and were...

    Hang on a second. Is this just the daily figure out out by Public Health England that has been changed? People have been pointing to excess deaths and the ONS stats as more accurate since this began. Still it’s a nice distraction for the government rather than having to actually deal with the...

    New sponsor* !!!!!

    People who are moaning on social media that its not a big enough company. Do they realise this is just for the home shorts, its not the main shirt sponsor.

    Haskell / ACL / Trust / CCFC Administration

    Presume you're referring to JLR. Vodafone and Ericsson are the same, Wasps wanted their services but didn't want to pay and had things they couldn't get sponsors for. Aren't some of the others on that list Premiership Rugby partners rather than Wasps?
