    George Floyd

    Specific things have been put forward. For example yesterday Gavin Williamson, the Education Secretary, refused a meeting request from Black Curriculum UK. They are a group who have carried out research into the teaching, or lack of, black history in schools. Their report concludes that without...

    All purpose cricket thread

    ECB have announced that they have carried out 702 tests on players, support staff, match officials, ECB staff, venue staff and hotel staff. All tests have come back negative so looks like we'll be getting some test cricket in a few days.

    Birmingham bull ring cleared

    Think I'll stick to online shopping. Probably as much chance of it being gang related as a terrorist attack. Although never rule out some idiot being 'inspired' by what happened in Reading.

    General TV Thread

    Figured it was time to start a new thread as the old one is 'new tv series 2019'! If you want to see where George Lucas got his inspiration for Star Wars (or who he ripped off depending on your point of view) after decades stuck in development Issac Asimov's Foundation is finally coming to the...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    "A minute at 2 metres contact is about the same risk as 6 seconds at 1 metre. The risk at 1 metre is 10 to 30 times higher than the risk at 2 metres." - Sir Patrick Vallance, the Governments Chief Scientific Advisor.

    Was a weird one. All that time chasing him and then play a system that doesn't work for him.

    Transfer Rumour Callum O'Hare - Confirmed

    Bit early to be panicking, transfer windows not even open yet. We have no idea what Robins plans are for this transfer window or even if O'Hare and / or Walsh are part of them. Remember when we came up from L2? Everyone was convinced there would be no money and we'd be going with basically the...

    Genuine Question-SISU

    Or not exist. KMPG had already run an administration process in all but name and SISU were the only bidders left. Their bid was allegedly conditional on no administration and no points deduction.

    George Floyd

    Clearly a reaction to BLM. If you're in any doubt look at the posts people have shared from the social media accounts of the guy who organised it. Him and his girlfriend are both openly racist.

    Football is back!!!! Premier League

    Will be interesting to see the viewing figures for some of these games. If they're good Sky will be pushing to show way more games, if not all games. Not sure you can put the genie back in the bottle now they're started showing them all.

    Pubs

    Not a chance I'm going anywhere near a pub as soon as they open. At the very least will be giving it a few weeks to see if there's a rise in infections. And when they do reopen zero chance of me going in a Weatherspoon given the way he's treated his staff.

    Football is back!!!! Premier League

    its like a pre-season tournament. Don't think its even that there's no crowd, just that there's nothing to play for so they're just going through the motions.

    Can't complain about that, sure most Muslims would be happy to let them pull down all the statues of Mohammad they can find.

    Football is back!!!! Premier League

    That was a weird decision. On the angle VAR was looking at you couldn't see the ball so how did they know they were stopping it at the exact point the ball was played?

    George Floyd

    Had this come up on my timeline and thought it couldn't possibly be true In looking for more information it seems its not uncommon for monuments to be shot. What on earth would make you think shooting something like this is acceptable? Emmett Till: new memorial to murdered teen is bulletproof
