Another u-turn incoming. Having insisted the eviction ban wouldn't be extended past this weekend guess what. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-53851945

Be interested to know how much the university are paying compared to the amount they've received from betting companies in the last few years before applauding them. The cynic in me thinks they've changed sponsor and then decided to make out it was down to fan response for some cheap PR.

You kind of proving the point you've been arguing against there. I didn't buy my first car that cost more than a grand until the age of 36 as after rent I simply couldn't afford it. 10 years later I'm still in the same car as I can't afford to replace it. My Dad has never been without a newish...

It's a bit of an odd complaint as he's saying he has a relative who had a gambling additiction and wants to be able to wear the shirt when he goes to their house. Why not wear a different shirt on those days?

My Dad decided recently I should know all about his finances in case he drops dead or loses his marbles - a cheerful day! He left school at 16 and went to work, staying in the same role his entire life. I went to uni to study Computer Science, for which I still owe thousands, and have held...

You make it sound like all asylum seekers are heading to the UK when the reality is its a very small percentage.

Had a quick look and from what I can make out in the UK asylum seekers get £37.75 a week, accommodation and access to the NHS. The accommodation seems to generally be of a pretty low standard. If they're successful and become a refugee I can't find anything to suggest they get more than anyone...

Doubt it will be on junior sizes. Those kits couldn't have the sky bet logo on them in the past.

Didn't know you knew my parents :D

The genius that is Matt Hancock has declared there is no reason not to go back to offices as the track and trace stats show the level of transmission in offices, which have of course been largely closed with people working from home, is relatively low. Oddly it seems there are experts who don't...

You've got to admire him really. To be able to get simple facts wrong so consistency takes some doing. In just a couple of tweets he's managed to get the number of season ticket holders wrong and claimed match package holders donated money to the club when the club have said they can be retained...

Think I'm going to boycott, not going to support a team that's got the branding of a betting company everywhere ;)

I see the point you're making but surely its more related to betting companies being able to advertise and sponsor in general? As a club we aren't in a position to take the moral high ground, we need every penny we can get. We've played for years in the Sky Bet league with that branding highly...

No way they won't be making all games that aren't on Sky available for streaming as long as games are BCD. Why would they not, they have the setup for it and it would just be turning money down.

Back to the grading fiasco, interesting piece on the BBC site. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-53819655 One line that stood out to me was "the process has been made more difficult because universities themselves have yet to be granted access to upgraded results, so the university has put its...

This is explained in the article. Its not being sold as a season ticket because card companies won't process the payments. They're worried about chargebacks for games BCD. So you get this instead, if games are BCD you get ifollow, if supporters are allowed you have a season ticket.

Do you mean during covid-19 or in general? If the former then that's not really shocking when you compare the two countries figures.

What the hell is wrong with people?
