    Stand up if you've never watched Wasps

    Only if you have incredibly low expectations! Sure its just coincidence that the Wasps PR machine has sprung to life when CRFC have been promoted and CCFC look like they could be headed to the play offs.

    Stand up if you've never watched Wasps

    Even you can't seriously think if a move elsewhere was financially beneficial to Wasps they would stay here.

    Not sure why you'd think anything dodgy might happen in Russia. This is a piece about the KHL, their top level ice hockey league. Written by Russian sports writer Slava Maiamud:

    The World Cup Thread

    You do get questionable reviews in other sports but not in the way football is where pretty much every VAR decision is questioned. Some issues can be addressed with minor rules changes. For example make the ball hitting a hand handball no matter if its deliberate or not, remove the grey area...

    Ashes 17/18 Thread

    The ICC punishments are a joke and surely now will have to be looked at. In the same series they tried to ban Rabada for 2 games for this until he lawyered up: Realistically if you're getting hammered in a series and cheating is only a 1 match ban for 1 or 2 players everyone is going to be at it.

    To answer my own question the ban is for all international cricket and domestic cricket in Australia. They aren't banned from the IPL as such but the IPL commissioner Rajiv Shukla has voided their contracts. Interestingly Warner is banned from ever holding any leadership position in the...

    The World Cup Thread

    Makes me laugh how an England player gets the slightest touch and the pundits are saying there was contact definite pen. Then when one of our players stands on someone's foot they're saying its not a pen!

    Hope there's no posts on there about lack of investment when they're happily posting pirate streams of the games.

    More than I thought they'd get. Of course there's no guarantee they'll get back in. Smith is a special talent so you'd imagine him coming back unless this affects him mentally. Can easily see Warner losing the plot. Bancroft hasn't played many tests anyway, wouldn't be a surprise to not see him...

    It hasn’t been decided who is on the new supporters group yet has it? I was under the impression that those interested could put themselves forward and there would at some point be a vote.

    Don't agree in the slightest. Its the way it is everywhere. An interview date is given and if you can't make it you miss out. You might not like it, I might not like it but its the case with pretty much every job.

    How dare a potential employer expect you to make yourself available for interview. Bet you'd never find that anywhere but CCFC.

    Oh Jeremy Corbyn

    Did it? Personally I'd say if its taken 6 years for it to gain any traction there probably wasn't that much outrage before someone decided to whip up a storm as a distraction from other issues.

    Oh Jeremy Corbyn

    I find it somewhat concerning the way 'anti-Semitic' is getting thrown around recently. The definition is Does that really apply to what is being protested today? Most of the talk seems to be about Kalen Ockerman's Freedom for Humanity mural. Of course with everything going on in the world at...

    2-year old killed in hit-and-run, McDonald Road

    Guess they've got to go with the charges that will get a result. Unfortunately as she wasn't driving there's not much else they can charge her with. What's the sentencing guidelines, he'll be looking at life won't he? Imagine he won't have a cushy time inside when the other inmates find out...
