Cork not training shouldn't be taken too seriously at this stage. That's standard practice for a sprain. He might make it for the wknd but if we're being sensible he won't be risked.

There were 13 players on the squad list for the friendly against Dundee United: https://www.uptheclarets.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/pgm0405-dundee-utd-f-home.jpg 3 of whom were youth players and not really up to professional standard. Some interesting names on that programme... https://i.imgur....

One well known poster going to the lengths of creating a list...which was a disgrace in itself.

Notable by his absence here, so far.

You're too sensible most of the time Paul Waine, that's your problem.

A Black Lives Matter logo will also feature on shirts for the remainder of the season Premier League players from all 20 clubs united in solidarity with this message and the Premier League supported their request to replace their names on the back of playing shirts with ‘Black Lives Matter’.

It seems very much in line with what a lot of people were already saying. There is a difference between black lives matter and Black Lives Matter and most understood that what is being promoted in the Premier League, etc is the former. I guess it was necessary as there is a minority who want to der...

What was “very successful” about their anti racism message ? I haven’t heard many of the prominent black players describe it like that. If it was such a successful message do you not find it strange that black players (and white ones) have so embraced the black lives matter message ? The Kick It Ou...

A very thoughtful post there cricketfields.

I don't agree with entirely everything but you've put down your thoughts so eloquently I only want to thank you for your contribution.

They should employ you as a proof reader, in that case.

Pedantry at its finest.

There is a BIG difference between saying "black people are important and that their lives matter" and supporting the BLM movement.

This is not pedantry.

I think the FA / Premier league are getting worried about black players doing the black power salute which has slightly connotations to BLM

I think it's more to do with the tweets from the "official" BLM UK twitter account and a panic at the FA not to be associated with their politics.

Rowls

Does it really matter if the word is capitalised or not? Yes. You clearly understand the rules, at least the basics, as evidenced by your post. Why would they capitalize the word 'black'? Well, you'd capitalize it if it pertained to an organization. So for example I refer to B lackburn R overs and ...

Richard Masters (Premier League Chief Exec) was grilled extensively by the DCMS committee today on the subject - mainly around the Premier Leagues stance on being apolitical - his position was that their campaign was a moral position brought to them by all the players and one whcih all member clubs...

The now say they support the "Black{sic} lives matter message".

So all those people who think that black lives don't matter have been put in their place.

I do hope the very good Kick It Out campaign returns to prominence.

The FA have begun to distance themselves from the BLM movement. A tweet today tacitly, subtely but distinctly drops FA support for the BLM movement. Previously, they had tweeted the #BlackLivesMatter hashtag without comment or critique. Now they have issued a statement to clarify their position. The...

Good luck with it. Keep copies of any correspondence with them - hopefully you have an email of you offering to do the cleaning.

Get down to citizen advice ASAP and see what they say.

Hahahaha It's a petulant and pathetic red card.

The Rovers dude was accidentally tripped by a Barnsley player and the ref gave no freekick, correctly. He threw a paddy and ran off and kicked a different Barnsley player out of touch.

Hilarious.

Cotterill got the strategy right to focus on bringing in a few players of higher ability.

If we'd gone for more players but lower quality we could have been relegated.

If we'd suffered from lots of injuries it could have backfired. Fortunately it didn't and we were comfortable.

My favourite comment on the performance comes from The Guardian’s report, ‘Truly, this is a club continuing to defy not just gravity, not just sporting economics, but occasionally even simple logic.’ That alone was enough for me to search and read their report. It's true too. What a tonic the last ...

I’ve read that all PL clubs signed up to play at neutral grounds if for any reason their midden was out of bounds.

Here’s another revelation - people who enjoy the slogans and are able to find satisfactory “substance” in them generally support the policy. There's some truth in this.
