The ROI didn't join Schengen as the UK wasn't joining and they didn't want a hard border between NI and ROI. The upshot of that is that entering the UK and Ireland has always required passport control. This clearly isn't enough as we were told by the leave campaign that we needed to take back...

Something not quite right with this. Their manager wasn't keen to let him go in the summer and was talking him up. Apparently wasn't told he was being left out of the squad completely until an hour before the game.

Seems that both Barcelona and Finland were down to Moroccan's who were in the respective countries claiming asylum. Raises the question why are people from Morocco being considered for asylum? Its one thing to be taking people from war zones but Morocco?!? Also shows again the process needs to...

There has been calls for 2 divisions for several years now. Back in 2016 the ICC were planning to have it in operation by 2019 but then it all got scrapped. Losing 1 match to South Africa in a series at home is nothing like the annihilation of a young West Indies team in less than three days...

Bit of an overreaction, we lost 1-0 to a goalkeeping clanger and people are throwing around ratings of 2, 3 and 4 for most of the team.

People point it out because there are complaints about pricing when there are cheaper ways to buy. Instead of paying £51 on the gate he could have paid £37 in advance. This isn't unusual, most things are more if you want to pitch up and pay on the gate as that creates extra costs. Problem is we...

Its tricky. Have to balance what he can potentially do for us short term with what is best for the long term. He may well be useful coming off the bench but is 20 mins a week going to help him develop? Micky Gynn was talking about young players on CWR today and pointed out that when he joined...

He definitely said silence and applause, presume it's from a script and someone hadn't blanked it out. Not sure why we have a minutes silence for Barcelona at a Coventry Newport League 2 game anyway. Rate we're going we'll have one every week. Fair enough at the opening game for those who were...

Think there needs to be a serious look at two or more divisions in test cricket now. Especially now Ireland and Afghanistan have been given test status. And not this stupid conference thing they have been looking at. India, South Africa, England, Australia, New Zealand and Pakistan in Div 1...

Poor game and poor performances all round from us. Had 0-0 written all over it if O'Brien hadn't made a huge mistake. They squeezed the life out of us with a simple game plan. Pack the side with huge bastards and then get stuck in and hope the ref doesn't get a grip which as we're quickly...

There's a dispute between the players and board. According to what Curtley Ambrose was saying on the radio the board are saying that for players to be eligible for selection they have to play domestic cricket which clashes with the IPL. Unsurprising the players being offered huge amounts to...

11am I think.

More journalists should be like this when faced with obvious BS.

Notice when I went past the remembrance garden at the last game that it was in a pretty poor state as well. I guess replacing individual bricks isn't easy but surely not too hard to repaint the names on them and have a general clean up.

What on earth are you on about now? The link you provided claims to be Islamic terror attacks in Europe. It then states it includes Turkey "even though it is not necessarily a part of Europe" and "There are some honor killings on the list, which may not fit the strict definition of a terror...

That link perfectly illustrates a problem. We all know there is a problem with Islamic attacks in Europe but by publishing a list that, which by their own admission includes Turkey which isn't in Europe and honour killings which aren't terrorist attacks, it brings the validity of the whole list...

No I posted it to show the level of attacks in western europe and how it compares to previous years. What relevance does how many people have been killed in the civil war in Syria or the ongoing troubles in the likes of Iraq and Afghanistan have in looking at the danger to us in the UK?

Strange that Takiyah Thompson, the black women who put a rope around a confederate statue, has been arrested. According to the county sheriff “With the help of video captured at the scene, my investigators are working to identify those responsible for the removal and vandalism of the statue.”...

And when it happened before they said steps had been taken to ensure it never happened again. Is it a huge problem in the grand scheme of things, not really, the maintenance of the bricks and memorial garden is poor in general, but if you're managing the stadium its part of your responsibility...
