  1. A mediocre squad can produce good performances with a competent manager. Our lot have zero fight, zero confidence, and zero belief - all down to Wreck It.
  2. Or for Burnley.
  3. It is actually a disease of rodents.
  4. They borrowed it from Vladimir Putin
  5. A millionaire, a worker, and an immigrant are sitting at a table with 1000 biscuits. The millionaire takes 999 biscuits and then says to the worker "Watch out, that immigrant is after your biscuit".
  6. One good thing about the Hundred is that the tickets for Lancashire's 50 over match against Northants in the Royal London Cup at Blackpool during that tournament are £10. Hope the sun comes out.
  7. It is a disease that needs prolonged close contact and has a low risk of transmission. What the story does support is cross species transmission, as was originally stated for CoViD before the tin foil hat brigade got involved.
  8. The story seems to be that Boris suggested to Sue Grey that a meeting might be a good idea, she didn't really want to meet but deferred to the PM and sent a few suggested dates/times when she was available. Downing Street are claiming that as she sent the actual invite it was 'her' meeting.
  9. Amen.

    Russia

    Germany has sent hundreds of anti-tank weapons, armoured personnel carriers, and plenty of personal body armour. The issue at the start was that constitutionally their hands were tied; the Budestag had to legislate to change the constitution, as Japan has also had to do, before weapons could be sent. They also had a similar ban on German weapons being sent from allied countries, which delayed the Dutch and Czechs sending German manufactured AFVs. The Ukraine invasion has thrown a curve ball at NATO, it has had to morph from a purely defensive organisation into one that is capable of effectively fighting a proxy war outside it's territory.

    Russia

    War rarely does. Zelensky is right - Ukraine cannot "win" as it cannot overrun and conquer Russia. Even returning to the pre-invasion situation means the problems with Donbas and Crimea are unresolved. Russia cannot "win" as it cannot eliminate Ukraine as long as the West props it up, the cost in terms of "Blood and Treasure" of perpetuating the conflict is crippling, and even if Ukraine was somehow suppressed, we would effectively have a European Afghanistan.
  12. How about scrap The Hundred and play each other twice.
  13. Allegedly their 3rd kit for next season is a direct copy of the Saudi national kit, white with green trim.
  14. I think we might just scrape past the Wurzels.
  15. Coming from you that is rich.
  16. So does actually applying the rules. Do you honestly think the Dugout Pioneers will be sanctioned, as at face value they have blatantly exceeded their permitted losses; how does ticket revenue of £14m per season equate to a Covid related write-off of £150m ?
  17. FFP is something that the authorities introduced with no intention of ever using.
  18. According to Andrea Leadsom, Parliament could "burn down any day" unless 'urgent' repairs are made. It is estimated that the costs of repairs might run to over £22bn and take over 20 years. Surely it would be quicker and cheaper to let it burn down and build a replacement ?
  19. We were winning until they equalised.
