The last week or so there's been a bit of chatter on socials about amendments being made to their requirements for selective service and even the potential for a draft. That all seemed like nonsense as you would have thought there was no way Trump would send troops in but if he is this could...

Didn't Wasps get given a chunk of taxpayer money to refurb the underground bit? Seem to recall they claimed they needed it doing for the Commonwealth games despite there being no plans to use anything down there for the Commonwealth Games. Although there's every change someone pocketed the...

Maybe they should check the postal votes for fraud

Its crazy there's been zero changes. You've basically got all the pundits, which include some very knowledgeable and hugely experienced players all saying the same. You've got former players all saying the same. You've got people in leading positions with counties saying the same and that they...

Is insider trading allowed now?

Went to see Project Hail Mary last night. As a big fan of the book was half expecting them to mess it up as is often the case with book adaptions. Happy to report they couldn't have done a better job. Definitely worth seeing in the cinema. Have seen people posting that the 70mm IMAX version...

Aren't we still on a suspended punishment for repeated pitch invasions 20 point deduction incoming for a pitch invasion to celebrate promotion!

They don't help themselves do they

The messaging was completely wrong from the start. The biggest benefit is by having a high capacity route between major cities you relieve the demands on the current infrastructure which can then run more, and less crowded, regional services. But from day one the messaging was 'get to London a...

This story is a bit mental. As much for the way it happened as the content. A story was seeded in the Times at the weekend headlined 'HS2's latest challenge? Cutting the speed of its trains to save money'. The sub headline suggests a linear relationship between speed and cost with every 1mph...

1986 I started going to games. In my first season we were up the top end of the league, won the FA Cup and the Youth Cup. All the talk from those in charge was how we were going to push on from there and challenge for more honours. Didn't quite work out like that. Looking back its crazy to...

Are they random tickets or in a certain place? Wonder if we've still seats that can't be opened up with the SAG approving it.

Does anyone know who the 'we'll be back' chap is and if he's still around? Need to see him at a game with an updated sign if he is!

Think I've mentioned before there's a chap bang in the middle of prime redneck territory who has a very similar gmail address to mine and clearly can't get his own right so I get a lot of his emails, including invites to Klan events! I used to get a steady stream of properly out there MAGA...

One of the problems is most countries do, or at least should make some attempt to appear to have, due process and things like going to war are a major decision that can't just be made on a whim. With how often he changes his mind he's created a situation where it's near impossible for other...

Couple of names in there I barely remember and some I'd rather forget! Its been horrific at times and there were points where I genuinely wondered if we'd have a club at all for much longer but every single person there has played there part. The last few years have been so bad even now I'm...

Don't think the segregation banners would make any difference because there's actual barriers as well so additional seats would be in the away end. Not sure why we have the banners by the dugout. Pretty sure there's been a time when they weren't there at all. There's stairs between those seats...

Trump has put out a list of demands Iran has to meet to end the war: No missile program for 5 years. Zero uranium enrichment. Decommissioning of nuclear reactors. Arms control treaties with regional countries. No financing for regional proxies. Strict outside observation protocols around...

The same applies to the writing team as well. Would have been easy to go to the same old names but they've been out there and scooped up the fresh young talent. So important as there's a dire lack of opportunity. Not sure why given the successfully history of sketch comedy in this country but...

Its a fun show and such a simple concept. Enjoyed the first episode of the UK version of SNL last night. As always with sketch comedy a mixed bag but some really good stuff in there. Particularly enjoyed Weekend Update.
