Totally bizarre organisation, if even a fraction of what happens in the NHS happened in a private business it would be shut down in disgrace.

Fair enough, but 4 corners were incorrectly given as goal kicks, one clear elbow ignored, multiple freekicks given when either the ball was cleanly won or given the wrong way, got in the way of play twice nearly costing England a goal on one occasion ,booking a Sweden player when they clearly won t...

I don’t believe anyone who says they enjoy this, it’s like watching non league.

What was the goalie doing for that goal, all over the shop.

Zadar is an absolutely beautiful place, Highly recommend sitting drinking Pan watching the best sunsets you will ever see

Been a few times over the last couple of years, brilliant old town too, bars & restaurants forever and some of the nearby places are stunning.

How strict are they at old Trafford for the party stand? Only tickets left and I fancy taking my teenage lad over to watch it. Any help on the matter is appreciated. How old is he? 16 years old is the age restriction but having been a few times I don’t recall anyone ever asking, and a 16 year old w...

Has Tony Bloom got money back from Brighton? Don’t think he’s in it for the money, estimates are he has put upwards of £400m in to get them where they are and he holds I think 75%. So would need a sale in & around 600m to turn any reasonable profit. I assume he will get some sort of return at some ...

As someone mentioned above I prefer winter/spring trips and stay home in summer when it’s warm & light.

3 trips to the canaries so far this year. Somewhere unconfirmed for September (can’t decide!) and then Tenerife for the usual November trip once it starts to get a bit grim in Burnley.

Amazing days cricket today and the last hour yesterday. Our bowling attack looked right at it for spells which hasn’t always been said in this series so far, Archers pace is a difference maker. Special mention to Jadeja, it was pretty much all on him and he almost got them home. Bumrah as well for r...

Cracking last hour of cricket that. Stokes has given us half a chance with that last ball.

Is Mike Garlic negotiating transfers for Newcastle now? Surely it’s as simple as we name our price and they take it or leave it? They have 55m to spend on Elanga no problems yet continue to try and have our pants down for Traff. I hope we aren’t entertaining them. Worry is we end up losing him on th...

Will be a very handy afternoons work if we can (somehow) send Shubman Gill back to the pavilion before the end of the day. Pivotal hour or so now.

Wicket doing more or is Bumrah just magic? Would probs snap your hands off for 360 as it stands and have a real go at them this afternoon.

I was driving from Manchester back to Burnley on Monday. Hit a pot hole on the A56 just before Haslingden. Tyre bust instantly and god knows how I managed to keep the car on the road. That stretch of road is almost undrivable. £90 for a new tyre down the drain !!! I ended up with a tyre defect afte...

Drove the length of Trafalgar Street today and there are smoother trips between African villages I recon.

The whole west gate/trafalgar junction is like a bomb crater.

Benfica want £25m for him it says, with Napoli in the driving seat. A nice link in terms of profile, but seems a touch speculative from our side (financially and other clubs interested). I’d be amazed if we pulled this off however I don’t think the money would be an issue with this as if we went do...

York is one of those courses where there isn’t a great deal of difference for the money because the grandstand area is very nice, lots of bars inside across all floors and you can get to the parade ring still you just have to walk round the back that’s all rather than down the front of the course.

Aye a big step up needed for the Lords test. And we have Bumrah to look forward to

Stokes gone in final over before lunch - 153/6

And with him any tiny hope of a draw that remained. India have utterly dominated this test from the word go.

I’ve seen very little on this topic even though it seems very active at the moment. What exactly is happening with this potential takeover? I’ve seen so many posts over the last few weeks all over twitter regarding this takeover and recent posts are stating it is close and Alan is planning on trave...

From an ALK point of view it’s probably on their agenda as it would increase the value of the club regardless of what division we are in assuming it can be financed without massively affecting transfer budgets. And if you bought a club with barely any of your own money and plan to sell it for a few ...

Josh is at a pro training camp in Ibiza according to Instagram so if he’s there and everyone else is back at Gawthorpe then that probably answers that question.

Seems we’re going very much down the French route this window. Very interesting Whilst nowhere near as intense as the PL, Ligue 1 is far more physical, so it’s a more natural progression to the PL than coming from Germany, Italy, Spain. Add in that every French club is budgeting this season with £0...

I still don’t understand. It sounds like a glorified way of robbing Peter to pay Paul. Basically one of their parent ownership companies purchasing the team which probably existed as an entity owned by the Football Club not the parent company, then transferring the £200m fee to the clubs accounts t...

It would only need the area of the current nets. The CFS is nearly as deep as the Longside given the pitch of the upper tier. There’s also loads of room to move the pitch closer to the Longside and Jimmy Mc to create extra room for the CFS and Bob Lord. I’d make it part of a deal whereby we paid fo...

Does the lack of forward activity point to Zeki staying?

Annoying that Spurs & United are away as in their current states you’d think we could get something at home, and probably by the time we do play them at home they will have their s1!t together! Sunderland is a massive one coz they will be thinking that about us too and we didn’t lay a glove on them ...

Frank was appointed in the Championship with a strong team at that level though. He’d also managed previously in Denmark. This seems much riskier - big players leaving, including the captain, and bringing in a guy with zero managerial experience, who wasn’t even assistant last season. Has a little ...

There definitely could be a fire sale. I don’t think so, whilst there has been some substantial fundraising (Cherki etc) Lyon will be confident of a successful appeal. Textor is the main issue really, he has shown nothing but distain & disrespect for the DNCG and indeed the whole process all season...

Don't see the need to constantly compare the womens game to the mens. Its basically a different sport.

It 100% is totally different to the men’s game, it needs to stand alone. It’s the media’s insistence on pretending it’s the same thing that causes much of the turn off for most people.

Local entrepreneurs who use their platform to help raise awareness of testicular cancer. Some strange ill informed ideas of what constitutes pathetic/horrible on here.

Is Nick Pope completely out of the equation? I think they would want 2 “number one level” keepers as they have had with Pope & Dubravka. But I’d say so as he is probably on at least £75k I’d imagine and bigger clubs than us would probs take him on that money, I guess it’s what we are willing to pay...

It’s a near instant fix but can have consequences down the line if you don’t do it properly. GENERALLY SPEAKING (but not always) you’re overweight as your diet has been high calorie & nutritionally low over an extended period of time, so you need to change this in tandem with taking the medication. ...

I think we have learned that signing a young goalkeeper and throwing him into the premier league isn’t always the best idea. If Traff is off he should be understudy to an experienced number one for a year, he obviously has much promise. Can’t help think someone like Fabianski on a free wouldn’t be a...

I don’t think it’s a case of letting them go without a fight, I think there has been an understanding/gentlemans agreement for a few years now between Frank & the owner that he will be allowed to go as & when a top club comes in. Talking about 50m for Mbuemo which is massive money for a club of that...

Of course it’s basically theft.

The city council and all the local authorities together own a 65% stake in the airport so you’d imagine they were in on this.

Much has been made of 2 years where the newly promoted 3 have all been relegated, however this season has the potential to be much more open.

Just wondered what's happening or recently happened with that. Are we likely to benefit quite well from any outcome?
