    All purpose cricket thread

    That knock by Broad, and Anderson sticking around with him for a bit, could prove vital. What are peoples thoughts on the theory the experts are throwing around that its not the pitch but the lights making it hard to bat. Doesn't seem to be much detail, I guess the heat from the light combining...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Obviously not or I wouldn't have asked for further explanation! Isn't what you're saying based on an assumption that an EU country, be it Greece or anyone else, would be allowed to go bust? If thats the case why not let that happen in the first place? You also seem to be saying that a...

    Kwame to Sutton

    I'd be happy with him on the bench so long as our supporters don't start calling him a wanker if he doesn't score a hat trick the first time he comes on. At the moment I'd rather have him than Kwame as I don't have the confidence in Kwame being able to make it through 30 mins, or more if an...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    So how is that different to here? We have rising inflation and people borrowing on historically low interest rates. As we've discussed on here recently banks have paid no attention to the problems last time and are happily giving out 100% mortgages. BoE have already said that interest rates...

    Kwame to Sutton

    If he does pick up another injury during this loan spell how many more chances do you give him to prove fitness. I know we all desperately want him to come good but at some point you have to draw the line.

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    I was convinced this was a look a like but this does actually appear to be the former Mexican president. At least if it isn't whoever it is has done a good enough job to convince legit news sources to report it as him. A+ for trolling.

    Kwame to Sutton

    A month would indicate its for match fitness. Suspect that given his run of injuries Robins wants him to prove he is physically up to playing every week.

    Rubbish Coventry City managers.....

    The game he played against Villa in the Simod (?) Cup was one of the worst performances I've seen from any player.

    Should drugs be legalised?

    Doesn't seem to be a great deal of study in the effects of the licensing changes. Managed to find one report: https://gallery.mailchimp.com/708e119fa74cd33e6a28f949a/files/Briefing_1505_Drinking_fast_and_slow_web.pdf Some highlights: Per capita alcohol consumption has fallen by 17 per cent...

    Could you not swap in the pound for euro in that article?

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    What are peoples thoughts on article 127 and whether it needs to be triggered or not to leave the EEA? Seems a bit of a mess, on the one hand Davis is saying they don't need to trigger it as the UK will automatically leave what they leave the EU but then he admits lawyers are looking in to it...

    PONTICELLI

    Don't much too much pressure on Ponticelli, just compare him to one of his generations most exceptional talents! Klopp has said Woodburn won't be rushed into the first team and if he doesn't play first team for a year its not an issue as his long term development is more important. The same...

    Potential new BCFC stadium at NEC for Commonwealth Games

    Strange interpretation of no taxpayers money will be used and the bid will be privately funded through sponsorship.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Suspect that might not have been entirely unintentional. He isn't short of a few quid (together with his wife a net worth in the region of £150m) and enjoys being an MP. Plenty of media appearances to keep the bank account topped up, why would he want the hassle of being PM?

    All purpose cricket thread

    If it was a county game they'd be sending someone out to take a look at the pitch and make sure it was up to standard.

    There's a few more that need not bother making the trip. These last two tests are really showing England up as a poor side. West Indies arrived in a complete shambles and can't even pick their strongest team due to contract disputes. The next test match is the opening match of the Ashes and...

    Potential new BCFC stadium at NEC for Commonwealth Games

    Good stuff, one less way for SISU to screw us over. Will be interesting to find out who is funding the work at the Alex as its always been a non-starter when its been looked at in the past. Wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to be the taxpayer despite what the council have promised.
