    Pennington

    He's been recalled from loan and is in the squad as they have a lot of defensive injuries. Think he'll only play if Jagielka doesn't pass his fitness test.

    Royal Family

    This isn't a flippant question but would you rather not have a royal family but pay more tax to offset the £1.2bn a year loss of income?

    Player of the Season - Early Runners

    Because he's still a JSB member himself?

    Royal Family

    Security is £104m. Think the cost CJ is referring to is the Sovereign Grant (the amount the taxpayer contributes), that's £40m or roughly 56p from each taxpayer. http://brandfinance.com/images/upload/brand_finance_s_valuation_of_the_british_monarchy_2015_full_details.pdf

    Top 6 Budget?

    The FA have released details of fees paid to agents and we come in at sixth on the list. Obviously doesn't show that we have a top 6 budget but I would think the mount being paid in agents fees by various clubs would give an indication of relative budgets. Details here...

    Kits Next Season

    Its the same company isn't it? Are they changing the branding for all the clubs they supply?

    This WMCA / Reeves Stuff / Plot to oust Lucas

    Like the quote from the councillors saying they had no idea an acting head had been appointed until they read it in the paper!

    Another Wasps payday bonanza..

    They were showing that live on TV the other night from Brandon. Isn't everyone getting kicked out of there soon so it can be redeveloped?

    This WMCA / Reeves Stuff / Plot to oust Lucas

    Lucas on the radio this morning "you know me well enough to know I am very straight in what I say". I presume she's not referring to when she kept banging on about it being a disgrace teams not playing in their home city or that ACL was 'washing its face'.

    This WMCA / Reeves Stuff / Plot to oust Lucas

    I don't know how they get away with this kind of thing. You wouldn't get it in a regular job. Imagine going to your boss and saying you've taken another job so won't be at work all the time but still expect to get your full salary!

    Leicester

    I can see them blowing it. Think the pressure will get to them. Combination of the result last week and Vardy getting suspended will have the doubts starting to creep in.

    Fargo Season 2

    Finally got round to giving this another go and I've got into it this time. Got 3 episodes of series 1 to go.

    Leicester

    I guess how much Leicester potentially winning the title bothers you depends on what generation you are. When I started going to games there was never a mention of Leicester as a rival, it was always Villa. As a result it doesn't bother me in the slightest if they do well. Suspect for the...

    Another Wasps payday bonanza..

    Didn't even know there was such a thing as the Four Nations to be honest. Quick google shows the last time this was held here Aus v NZ had an attendance of 12K and Eng v Wales (who Scotland seem to have replaced) was 10K. Of course I'm sure it was a huge boost to the Halliwell Jones Stadium...

    Another Wasps payday bonanza..

    Telegraph claiming it to be the highest level sporting event at the Ricoh. Have they forgotten about the Olympics? Odd that the pitch will be OK for this but when we want to play extra games at the Ricoh we get told it will cause issues with the pitch :thinking about:

    Remember the rumours of a punch up

    Brilliant, has he got an autobiography out? Would probably be a bit bonkers but worth a read.

    Those coming up

    And its not in the rough part of Pompey, although that says more about what a dump it is here than anything else!

    Euro 2016 stickers

    Apparently you can now trade virtual baseball cards and people pay big money for them. I can get trading actual cards but paying a fortune for a digital one is a bit odd.

    And Choppers has died. The last of the PG Tips chimps at Twycross.
