Speaking of balance, this by the beeb indicated that Depp won because juries are not clever enough to see through the tactics of lawyers, unlike his last case which just had a judge. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-61673676 I caught a BBC bulletin yesterday, and came away with the impression that a lot of those interviewed felt he should have been found guilty, because that supports women bringing charges in the future, rather than the evidence in the case. The beeb did balance it up by stating some details of Depp's win, a view from one of his supporters and a clip from his lawyer. But that didn't seem to be the main point they were trying to make. I'd want to see victims of any crime supported, and there are discussions to be had regarding reporting rates through charges and outcomes. But this coverage seems more about getting an outcome that suits their narrative, than anything connected to the evidence or individual case.

Good point. It's important we don't waste the £1 by overspending on rubbish. 🙂 -

I'm pleased we've cleared that big loan, to be left with a whole £1. 🙂 -
Athletic saying that he wants to play to be considered for World Cup. Yet, he'd consider not playing, but warming a bench, to reach the same goal.

Oh dear... Ukraine stronger, and better technically for that second goal.

Surely Scotland should bring on Armstrong so he and Adams can show the others a winning mentality....oh...

Rangnick now not taking on consultancy role https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/61625695 Perhaps his less than stellar run after Ole went, has resulted in a change of heart. Or perhaps Ten Hag wasn't keen. Whatever the reason, a bit of a shambles.

There's a gag about the inevitable decline of teams after Puel, but I'm not making it. 🙂

I just read it as Ralph letting other clubs know of Long's qualities before he leaves. He might be a great guy, but we need some goals. Freeing up those wages increases the pennies we have to bring that in (hopefully).

Just wait til we unveil Pukki as our new striker. 🙂 I'd not mind our catering being done by Delia. 🙂 -
As soon as I sit in the garden, someone decides it's time to use power tools in their nearby garden.

My gran would mention LSD, which turned out to be old currency, and not a new age experience. -

I remember asking for a quarter of sweets when I was a nipper at an old newsagents. I had no idea what it was a quarter of, only that's what you said to get the right amount for your money.
