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

    Net immigration has increased since Eastern European countries joined but you have to question why the UK didn't enforce similar rules to other countries to restrict things as many other EU countries did. The easiest way to stop that migration is not to have jobs going, so you need to get those...

    That was a proper stitch up. Even the FA admitted what he said was 'a factual, correct statement around the laws of the English game and having third-party ownership'.

    You live in a very binary world, everything either seems to be fantastic or terrible. This is, we are told, nothing to do with the bullying allegations. Something just seems off with the whole thing. Put yourself in Sampson's situation. In your old job you were accused of something, it was...

    Thats what it sounds like but what does 'There are different allegations about different things which is why we’re talking in the plural, some could be categorised as trivial and some as very serious.', different girls? Seems very odd that this would have been known about, investigated and then...

    Shouldn't be playing at all IMO. International cricket in general needs scaling back. There's so much of it nobody views it as an event anymore.

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

    Its the classic Conservative move. Then they get in huge debt because they are having to pay private companies to cover the shortfall and that will all be held up as evidence a public NHS doesn't work and it needs privatisation.

    We know how much the original lease cost. We know how much ACL, including the original lease, was sold for. We know how much the lease extension was sold for. And we know the valuation of the lease under Wasps ownership. Raises the question why the huge disparity in the numbers and more...

    I don't think anyone is saying it is impossible for their to be bullying or racism in womens football. More that its a bit odd that a player who wasn't even present when the alleged offence occurred decided to bring it up 18 months later. And of course the fact that the meeting in question was...

    This is just getting weirder. This new stuff is nothing to do with racism or bullying as was being claimed perviously. This is safeguarding which given it concerns a time when he was manager of an U18 side opens a lot of questions. But then if you look at the quote from the FA it makes even less...

    They didn't look very happy at the T20. It is a stupid idea. Even if you get away with no rain having all these day night matches when its going to be freezing is bonkers. Wasn't there something a few years back where counties had to bid and pay the ECB to stage internationals. Wonder if this...

    Mark Sampson

    Do you not think the whole thing is a bit odd? Its basically a claim of systematic bullying and racism throughout the England camp, its not just Sampson she's accused, yet the other players are sticking by the manager. There's been two independent reviews, which she refused to cooperate with...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Exeter City Match Thread - Saturday 23rd Sep

    This definitely won't be an easy win. We need to make sure we don't fall into an 'its only Exeter' mindset and put in a tight professional performance.

    Not the first time this season that one player alone has made the score respectable. Well maybe not respectable but better than the laughable total with his knock.

    Those allegations were BS weren't they? You don't have the team running over and celebrating with him like that if whats been reported was true.

    SKY Q

    Its supposed to learn what you watch and then when you go to the main viewing menu the shows that come up should match what you watch. I find I tend to get either totally random things or stuff I've watched so not much use.

    Getting the money back would be an unbelievable win for SISU but failing that there is some merit in the idea of just dragging it out as long as possible. If you believe Wasps, and ACL before them, aren't doing as well financially as some would have you believe then the longer you can cause...
