A band definitely worth seeing live. I caught them at the SECC in Glasgow a few years ago. It was pretty special.

Fantastic final stage.

Great addition is the Montmartre section.

Pogacar a brilliant champion.

Hats off to the ITV team, the coverage and commentary by all those involved is second to none. Will be a massively missed.

Agree with all of this.

They should definitely keep Montmartre in

No. Not having that. That's up there with EMCEE and ADMIN

Have enjoyed this week - Ventoux more than today. Today started well but then kind of fizzled out.

Rumours Jonas is using his TT bike. Which seems mental to me.

Maybe he is thinking, screw it, Pog's going to increase his lead either way today?

edison

That was phenomenal. I only caught the last 20k because the rest of ones on work wanted to watch the Open, but it was great

Yet another great stage. A friend was at it and I'm insanely jealous

Is Healy a genuine threat to the GC? I’m a novice to watching this so I don’t really understand it all :lol: I’m off work today but with school drop off/pick up I’m limited to how far I can go.

Not sure if it will make a difference but it says points will be added 48 hours after the relevant game.

Pretty shoddy if someone doesn't get points for a single home game.

I'll check back in a while

edison

Not sure about that. I thought that if you bought multiple tickets for a game then you only got 10 or 20 points but if you bought tickets in a single transaction for multiple games, then I would have thought that you should be multiple points. I bought for single tickets for three different matches...

Ignore this, as it's out of date.

Yes, my understanding is no points for single tickets anymore. Also none if you buy for, say, three single matches in one transaction.

edison

I was settling down yesterday for a lazy day with an uneventful sprint stage on in the background - but my goodness, it was great.

edison

I was interested to know this also. On top of this. It’s unlikely most people would ever bother to do this. But theoretically with the exchange system. You can buy a season ticket, resell every ticket this way and then keep aside the ‘big games’ against the top sides / local derbies. Small risk cou...

Onley is an exciting talent

I enjoyed that stage today

How is G doing?

He's in the breakaway today, which is probably doomed

A few really good wins from Healy last couple of seasons - Giro, Slovenia and and Basque country, all great too. Hope to see him on the attack again this tour

Well done Ben ! Love his attacking style...old school. And a Brit (pseudo Irishman ) to boot !

Rob Hatch said "he represents Ireland" while we're happy to claim him. Jack Charlton would be proud. Great ride today. Really pleased for him and Dunbar too.

Zayn left One Direction?

Anybody seen these live? I've got the option of seeing them in Glasgow over the summer... is it worth a 5 hour drive? Have a look at some of their live performances on YouTube - the Letterman one is legendary. They put on a decent show, although I'd not drive 5 hours https://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

Not sure how many, but definitely quite a few. I wasn't part of that group, but came across them before and after the match and they were certainly in good spirits.

I was over from Friday to Sunday - airport/flight was great because no Man City/United fans about - it was bliss for once

Many over from Belfast?

The late fixture change will cost the Dublin Clarets a lot of money. They book their flights in advance, in order to get cheaper deals. Now they will lose that money. The closer they are to booking for a match day, the more the flights cost. Plus they then have overnight accommodation costs to add....

2nd trip over this season where I've flown back into a storm. Same after Boro match in December

edison

Worst of it seems to have passed. A massive tree on next street over from me crashed into a house and others have hit cars but people have escaped serious injury so far. It was fun watching airlines cancel flights out of Bristol to Ireland last night as I was waiting to come home after Wednesday's m...

Annoyingly, and predictably, Rice and Grealish were the best players, and I thought Gordon was good as well. Only Ogbene tried for Ireland. Towards the end we had 3 ex-Clarets in our back 4. Brady is probably done at international level, probably has been for a while to be honest

edison

There was quite a bit of trouble after the game with mainly young Irish lads taunting England fans with songs about the death of Queen Elizabeth. A lot of the English had been drinking for much of the day and it didn't take long for them to retaliate. Most of the police, including several on horseb...

Terribly sad news. Hugely popular in east Belfast, was manager of the Glentoran team that won the `Glen Little final' in 96

Juts as everyone was predicting, Jonas did get stronger in the third week, but so did Tadej. To win the last three stages is insane stuff. So many great stories out of this Tour. Cav, BInny, Bardet, Carapaz, Campenaerts. It was great.

edison

I know it is technically still not over, but of those who won the Giro/Tour double in the recent past - Pantani, Indurain, Roche - has anyone done it the way Pog has? 6 Giro stages, and could have been 7 or 8 as well as 4 Tour stages, narrowly beaten in a sprint as well. Utter domination. Throw into...

edison

Second year in a row that one of them has gone in undercooked due to injury. Would love to see them go head-to-head fully fit. Both fully fit and prepared would be great. That was just insane again today from Pog. I wonder would he have tried to have won the stage had it not been Visma up the road....

edison

Van der Poel away already

edison

Would love to see Cav finish, although no would would blame him if he said he was done. Enjoy the day, looks absolutely boiling

edison

Fantastic that Binny picked up those points. I’m a fan of Philipsen’s but Alpecin–Deceuninck’s win at all costs approach (highlighted in ‘Unchained’) is something I don’t particularly love. There’s no doubting his supreme talent though. Could also be the editing of Unchained, but they didn't come a...

Accident late on robs Girmay of the chance to clinch the green jersey. Philipsen winning the stage leaves him 32points behind Binny with the jersey probably decided at intermediate sprints over the coming days. Philipsen sat up when Binny went by him today on the intermediate. I think it should be ...

Following my earlier post. Sad to see Roglic has abandoned after the accident yesterday.

Disappointing.

Result today was a bit `meh'. No Idea what Laporte was doing in his lead out for Wout. Ruined it for him it seemed.

That is brilliant. Picked up by The Times I see

Not too clear if all these behind closed doors, or just some.
