    Court Case Thread! June 2018

    If common sense came in to it the ground would never have been sold to a rugby club from London. The reality is nobody can say for certain that if the sale was properly marketed, rather than being carried out in secret, there would not have been other interested parties. If there were the...

    VAR tonight

    They're right tho. Start dishing out cards and the dissent will soon stop. So much of what is wrong with dissent, diving etc could be sorted out relatively easily. Its ruining the game for me.

    this summer's cricket

    Anyone else enter the world cup ballot? Pretty happy with mine, got New Zealand v South Africa and England v India as well as the semi at Edgbaston. Did put in for England v Australia at Lords and the final but wasn't expecting to get those, thought I might as well give it a try on the off chance.

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    Which statements are false? Aren't you then part of the problem? If you're emptying illegal Mexican workers you're giving them reason to attempt to cross the border.

    Jones/Andreu

    Jones keeps posting on social media that he can't wait for the season to start so I would assume he's ready to start pre-season and as Andreu was before him I would guess he will be too.

    Throwing Pints in the air to celebrate?

    I can understand accidentally spilling a pint when there's a goal and you get excited but what idiot deliberately chucks a pint in the air. a) beer is not cheap b) what goes up must come down

    Warwickshire CCC 2019 Thread

    If I was Sibley or Bell I'd be having words in that dressing room. Apart from Hose nobody made a contribution. With the scores those two got this should have been a win.

    this summer's cricket

    Too many wickets went in a 50 run spell after the partnership was broken. If one or two of the had stuck around then it would definitely be on. Going to be a struggle now. Basically need to get Hose on strike as much as possible and hip he can do it pretty much on his own.

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

    I used Syria as an example as we were discussing people coming from countries we are bombing. Syria is a recent example and has a decent amount of data available. If you're looking at immigration in general the top 10 source countries include India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nigeria and South...

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    Read the articles you are referencing. One quotes a CBP agent who has no idea where the mother and child currently are, the other quotes her father who by his own admission hasn't spoken to the mother or daughter since prior to them leaving Hondouras. But lets just pretend everything is OK...

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    The assertion that the girl wasn’t separated from the mother seems to have stemmed from a Daily Mail article where they speak to the father. However in that article he says he hasn’t spoken to the mother or daughter in 3 weeks.

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

    They don't. The numbers don't back that up. For example look at people pouring out of Syria. 3.6m in Turkey, 2.5m Saudi, 2.2m Lebanon, 1.3m Jordan, 600K Germany, 242K UAE, 230K Iraq, Kuwait 155K, Egypt 118K, Sweden 110K, Sudan 100K, Yemen 100K. Its a long way down the list to the UK with 9K...

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    The law hasn't changed however policy has. It was Trump and Sessions that brought in the zero tolerance policy in May. The change in policy means adults who try to cross the border, including those seeking asylum, are immediately placed into custody and therefore separated from their children...

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

    There is a problem with people working cash in hand for less than minimum wage which hasn't been dealt with effectively. The bigger issue relating to freedom of movement is that there is now a workforce available to employers, largely from Eastern Europe, who will work long hours for low wages...

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    There's also stuff online that isn't taken out of context. Of course part of the difficulty in getting footage is that nobody is being allowed in to check on the children's welfare. Even state senators are being blocked from accessing the facilities. Of particular concern is the number of...

    iFollow in UK next season

    That presumably is why Sky have let them have the rights back. It’s the FA stopping 3pm Saturday games being shown, not Sky. Would be better for them if the rule was scrapped or at least relaxed. Would stop the stupidity of having the start of El Classico consisting of the commentators being...
