Of couse He does. If He has a problem he calls on me

The winds will have dropped significantly by 20:00 this evening.

Just as long as we have a good chance of winning.

I bought my tickets on Monday and I had another email this morning offering me extra tickets should I want them

Yes we could. It’s a matter of market price sensitivity.

Democracy’s a bugger, isn’t it.

Tru dat. Neither my wife nor I can ever remember our schools being closed on account of the weather. Can I ask any other members who grew up in the fifties and sixties if their experience is the same? And yes, I know that it’s a different world today but none of us ever got taken to school by car.

A team that is safe will often take the opportunity to give some experience to their less experienced players. Although prize money for places nowadays can make this less common.

It’s an Americanism though and therefore to be deprecated. It might mean something significant if all the teams played each other on the same day/days.

It depends on the country. Some see it as bad manners if one team desperately needs the points and the other doesn’t.

It’s a meaningless statistic. If every team was of roughly equal quality and goals were scored at random times then one team would be top of the table and one would be bottom.
