Bethell and Smith this morning are more deserving of criticism for me. People will say Brook but without him India would have been celebrating long before. That Bethell shot was appalling, and Smith's cameo this morning was laughably bad, set the tone for the morning. Fair play to India, they bowled immaculately after the Brook wicket, and Siraj deserved that moment. -
Littlers scoring power just too much in the end.

Massive credit to Jess Carter as well, thought she was very good after a horror tournament.

Can now see why the selectors were reluctant to select Dawson despite his first class record. Mostly tidy, but doesn't threaten anywhere near enough. -
Worst performance you've seen live from a Leicester player
martyn replied to Jacob7839's topic in Leicester City Forum
He had a decent game at Old Trafford, either his first game on loan or first game after he signed permanently, can't remember which. After that however... I'd nominate Ryan McGivern at home to Bristol City under Pearson. Made Ivan Sproule look like Messi. -
This version of England will get crushed if they reach Spain. Chloe Kelly and Lucy Bronze delivering as usual.

Can someone with a digital season ticket tell me how it works?

Any recommendations here for as cheap as possible burner phone which would do the job? -
3:14, good to know his urologist has given him a clean bill of health.

Didn't get out of the way after handing over the trophy and ended up front and centre for the trophy lift, then the bouncing.

Sinner's base level is higher than Alcaraz, it's why I think he'll end up winning more slams, fitness permitting. Alcaraz is the more classically talented player, but still has a habit of donating away sets he should be winning. Unless someone else breaks through, they'll both win a boat load of slams, they're so far clear of the pack.

Monga already our best player

Don't think Draper has ever looked great on grass. Best performance was v Alcaraz at Queen's a while back where he was serve and volley and aggressive on the first strike. He was tentative today, letting Cilic dominate from the back and never attacking the weak 2nd serve. Cilic was clever in the rallies and really exposed the backhand side of Draper. Think if Draper is to win a slam, it'd be on a hard court, but that will be incredibly difficult with how Alcaraz and especially Sinner are on that surface.

Total collapse from Boulter. Such an unstable player.

Camera work was unbelievable, did that set full justice.

Will switch on Prodigy after The Maccabees who have been sensational.

If it's not for you it's not for you, but that summation of Doechii does a massive disservice to the complexity in that show. I've no skin in the game really, I can take or leave rap/hip hop in general, but she can rap very well, sing, dance and has stage presence.
-
Yeah not sure how you'd classify them, definitely some hints of Mark E Smith with the delivery at times. Crowd looked like they were having the time of their life, which made for an entertaining watch on the telly.

Just watched her set. Absolute superstar in the making. Wunderhorse and Fat Dog (lead singer looks like KDH and sounds like James Acaster) the 2 other sets I've really enjoyed so far from bands I knew nothing about.

England have been outstanding beating the press.

5 days total, based all the time in San Sebastian, with a day trip to Bilbao and half day in Hondarribia before flying back. I'd go back in a heartbeat. Perfect place to just go and enjoy the surroundings and drink/eat like a king.
-
Got back from San Sebastian yesterday. Probably goes to the very top of my list of favourite ever city breaks. Beautiful place and will definitely go back and explore more of the Basque country in the near future. Enjoyable day trips to Bilbao and Hondarribia as well.
-
Going to take a special player to break into what looks like it could be a duopoly over the slams for the foreseeable future. That was an extremely high level match.

Radwan on fire

Gusto is having an absolute shocker.

Very talented player. There'll be plenty of interest because for a player of his age, technical talent, and work rate, you can trust the eye test and overlook to some degree the goals and assists numbers in a rubbish side with no attacking dynamism. His high points have been exceptionally high (Man City at home). He'll spend his prime years starting for European level sides, I'm convinced. There's no way we accept as little as £20m but if that were the price, it's a no brainer for several clubs.
