    Preston demanding embargo

    Does the Telegraph actually employ any local news reporters anymore? Even the trainees seem to have disappeared. They always used to be pushing their stories on social media as the owners used to track the clicks they'd generated. Suspect they're running multiple papers form a central location now.

    Preston demanding embargo

    Just read the original article, he's not even talking about L1 / L2, he's specifically talking about the Championship.

    Preston demanding embargo

    There's a simple test here. How many other local papers of EFL clubs have run articles saying Preston demand that club be placed in embargo?

    Wasps downward spiral...

    If you challenge them about it on twitter you either get ignored, abuse or blocked. IMO its perfectly valid to question why the local newspaper is running daily stories trying to make things about the football club seem negative yet won't cover genuine newsworthy Wasps stories if they are negative.

    Be fair Nick, its not just the promise of 10,000 free tickets. They're also going to let the riff riff in a couple of times a year to watch Wasps train.

    You've perfectly illustrated my point. You say voters intelligence shouldn't be questioned yet you cite the likes of "20,000 new police officers" and "40 new hospitals and 50,000 new nurses" as reasons for the Conservatives winning. Things that were quickly and easily shown to be false. You say...

    Update on the training centre planning application for the site in Henly from Henley Sports Centre Alliance. Currently objections far outweigh support. Interestingly of the 6 comments in favour, saying it will benefit the area 3 are from Coventry, 1 from Kent, 1 from Wiltshire and 1 from...

    After Brexit it was said that one of the lefts biggest issues was regarding voters as stupid yet the reasons put forward for the Conservatives winning, the claims of additional police, nurses and hospitals, amount to calling voters stupid as they were so quickly and easily shown to be false.

    Couple of days ago we were discussing the total figures the FT were publishing using their modelling which was based on the most recent ONS figures. It was suggested that this was a high figure due to scaremongering / to make the government look bad. Sadly with the release yesterday of updated...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Heard someone comment on the radio yesterday that it was only a few years ago that having an affair was enough to bring down a PM. Now we've got one whose wikipedia page lists 6 or 7 children! Isn't he still married to his second wife while being engaged to Symonds and having a kid with her...

    Think CVC are trying to buy into other leagues as well. Could they be the ones behind the breakaway, cherry pick the best teams for a league they have complete control of?

    There's even talk about the whole league reverting to amateur. Can't see them needing a 30K stadium if that happens. Surely all the best players would leave and the level would be nearer to what you'd get at CRFC.

    The stuff with the TV deal is predictable. Remember having an argument with Italia about the level of exposure Wasps gave Ricoh by being on TV all the time. Looked up the viewing figures and they were shocking bad. Us being on Sky once got more viewers than every Wasps game combined! See...
