Whatever the end outcome surely this is just going to use up military focus, equipment and personnel…and will hopefully also lead to the brainwashed Russians to start questioning WTF is going on

Fuck. How awful at that age. RIP

Yeah, stumbled across Fred again last night. Fun. Crowd was loving life !

Tim ?

Just a great lad isn’t he

Sure they’re all aware of what’s going on. If they want him, they need to stick an offer in. Typical Prem clubs fucking about, like arsenal with Rice

Groundhog Day. Any new news ?

The Portuguese love doing their business through the papers don’t they ?! If Vik did hold off and sign for sporting on a free (unlikely) surely they be in massive shit for all this tapping up/leaks to papers* *until we find it’s us doing the leaking 😂

They could’ve justifiably argued post pandemic they needed to break certain commitments/promises. I personally didn’t think they should’ve had that in their manifiesto, however, they bottled it after May fucked the previous election. At least she was honest with the electorate about the problem...

We need more cash for social care as we’re living longer, ultimately this should probably come from either income tax or NI. I think NI gets capped in which case they should amend this. Nobody wants to make tough decisions anymore so we just constantly kick the can

I could imagine the national uproar if he raised personal taxes in the middle of a cost of living crisis though ! Remember after NI was rightly increased to pay for social care. Agree with Duffer that the problem with rate rises is the lag. It’s not just aimed at mortgages though, it businesses...

Yeah, would leave rate setting independent but not sure Bailey should still be in place. Shambles

Agreed. I previously thought Labour in a hung Parliament but with SNP unravelling and unlikely to be much improvement in economy/personal living standards in next 12months, I’d now be shocked if it wasn’t a Labour majority

Not in some kind of big propaganda play, but by leaking to various people that it’s the clubs fault and they need to do more, it doesn’t do the player/agent any harm. Better for them than saying ‘the club have put a brilliant offer on the table but my player wants crazy money to stay and we’ll...

inc a wicket no ball. In the field the Aussies looked like a team that played a test last week (when Cummins apparently also bowled a lot of NBs), we didn’t

And who’s to say he’s not just being used by players/agents to get a player friendly arguments out there. As you say, take everything with a pinch of salt and let’s just see how it all plays out

It was but if anyone thinks we beat this Australia team over the series playing traditional, safe test cricket they’re mad. Top three batsmen in the world, spinner with nearly 500 test wickets and probably an equal pace attack to ours. Stokes is trying to take them out of their comfort zone...

Yeah, he lacked rhythm. Think he was injured before test. Not ideal prep. Add Leach getting injured and Mo’s fucked finger and you can say we haven’t had too much luck to start series with.

They all come out the woodwork after a loss ! Look back at the last 18 months, how we turned round something like one win in 12 to 12 wins in 14. Players should be proud of how they played the game and we made that a great match/ending (would’ve been a bore draw if we’d played like the aussies)...

Desperately need a quick wicket after tea. Aussies picked up rate so not even sure we’ll have any time with new ball now. Guessing stokes isn’t fully fit as thought he’d have had an over or two before tea. Feels like it’s all down to some Broady magic now….
