Somerset v Surrey on YouTube heading for a great finish for anybody interested

They’re further to the right because they’re allowing Reeves to dictate policy, she is arguably as right as Osbourne was. We don’t need radical socialism but we do need investment in the state, infrastructure and housing, and it’s going to take out of the box thinking that they just don’t have. It’s the same old growth before investment rather than investing to grow. Basically reinforcing every problem that has kept Western European economies stagnant for decades.

I would hope to have a pension that would cover it.

Bayern will probably win the lot in Germany this season. Last season was a freak occurance, they have a better squad than anyone else (although interesting manager choice).

Fortunately it’s not family that I would want to spend Christmas with haha

My biggest gripe is that my Facebook warrior family members who regularly complain about scroungers and benefit stealers, are now complaining about having their fuel allowance taken away (despite owning their own houses). I agree with others that it’s bad policy and exceptionally unfair and tough for those near the cut off, but the system has suited those at the older end of the spectrum for decades now. Economic realignment and redistribution to support those that will be fueling this country for the next 50 years is drastically needed.

The one thing about the trial that I do find a bit off is that the defence didn’t use the statistics of deaths/serious incidents for when Letby was off shift, as they were of a similar number? I suspect a few people that work in the healthcare field may also be suspicious as NHS managers routinely throw their staff under the bus when malpractice has occurred under their watch. Despite this, the evidence does seem overwhelming that she was guilty and she killed those poor children.

Its still a horrific pitch, our bowling has been atrocious in the past 3 games and has been a weak link all season.

No he’s not, he’s only…52

No Anti Niemi in goal for Finland?

I think if Sri Lanka had a couple more warm up games then they could’ve well won the series. Think they’d be very difficult to beat on home soil where the pitches are easier to bat on.

Real wake up call for the likes of Duckett and Brook, if they’re as good as they think they are then they need to be better.

If we keep this close and miraculously win, any points we gain will probably be deducted for a bad pitch anyway.

Patel, Hill, Rehan and Rahane got absolute snorters to be fair. Some other dismissals were abysmal.

3-4 off of 9 overs 🤣 it must be hooping around corners. If only there was a stream to see.

So this year’s tournament is a bit different for travel reasons. It was: New Zealand v Argentina (2 tests in NZ) Wallabies v Boks (2 test in Aus) Boks v NZ both in SA Argies v Wallabies both in Arg then the last two are played home and away

Both. Argentina are better but still very inconsistent. Like they beat the All Blacks last month but then got hammered by them a week later. Then last week lost to the Aussies then hammered them this week. They’re a bit like France of the old days when you never know what team will turn up but they are incredible on their day. Sadly Australian rugby union has been on a slow decline for 20 years and now they have reached rock bottom. They will get better under their current coach but the Lions series will be an absolute manshaming next year.

Was looking forward to the game later but sadly now I won’t be able to watch it. Not singing the anthem is a disgraceful disregard to our history, especially in Dublin where we sacrificed so much for the good of the monarchy, and the empire. We could win 16-0 playing Brazil 1970 football and I still wouldn’t care, singing the national anthem is far more important to me than winning the World Cup. A disgrace I tell you! A disgrace.

I think we would need a different ground to become a more attractive proposition. Grace Road is basically a dead end, it’s in a massive housing estate, difficult to access through streets etc.

Yes his brother.

Like the Brihanna case, where her being trans was a factor in the murder but wasn’t a transphobic aggravated murder

A rather desperate attempt by some rather desperate people. We all have our legitimate grievances but there are much better ways to go about it.

I’m happy with us having Handscomb only if it puts us on a sound financial footing. I’d rather have a club in 10 years than a no-hoper Pakistan seamer next season.
