The Wolves ‘super agent’ guy, whos names escapes me, that signed every other Portuguese player

Wasn't the Wolves manager, now at Forest one of the agent's clients too?

Good luck with that , it’s booked a 4 car Plymouth to Leeds . It’s going to be cosy ….

I was on a 4 car service returning from Bristol to Nottingham yesterday. I felt sorry for the poor sods who were travelling the whole journey from Penzance to Edinburgh!  Catering was available from Birmingham. How Cross Country continue to keep this "service " is beyond me?

RFU apologise to Bath because one of the Harlequins'  players was only sin binned for 7 minutes yesterday!

England women 19 - 3 up against Wales at Ashton Gate.

46 - 10 at the end and another 18000 there today. Pitch still looks good.

Some neutral on Twitter and I'd forgotten a bit said both their wide men should have been booed for diving. I don't think either were.

He didn't give us a great amount.

I definitely booed them!

Manning needs some of those ex premier league players that never get booked!

Would he have given them for Leicester,  almost certainly! 

Our two bookings were deserved but I couldn't believe they had no bookings at all. A few of their players continually made niggley fouls but there was no reaction from the referee. He had a good 20  minutes at the start but after that he was balancing up the number of fouls they could have had with the number of penalties they got away with. There were several instances in the match where our player got barged off the ball and they got the free kick! As for them continually falling over and then claiming a contact with their face!

Good half. Ref started well then made it up after 20 minutes.

Good Friday is normal hours.

I thought so but every website you look at says that the hours may be different!

Has anyone any idea about licencing hours on Good Friday,  are they the same as Sunday or is that all in the past now?

Usually a few spare seats in the south stand!

You don’t know much about MI6 then - everything is based on deception and bluff including all spies and their families having pseudonyms to protect their true identity.

So recycling the same names would be common in MI6 then? Make it easy for any interested parties to enter those names and track them!

I enjoy T20 and have tried the IPL but it’s definitely not for me.

The games go on way too long, even Jos Buttler agrees with that and trying to follow the whole series you lose the will to live it drags on so long. I know a number of overseas players find it difficult to stay for such a long time and we’ve had many leave early for personal reasons. 

I know ours isn’t perfect and could do with a bit of tweaking but overall I much prefer it to the IPL. Don’t get me started on their incredibly annoying Indian fans who think the whole of cricket revolves around them and the IPL. 

IPL World Series?

I may be in a minority here but I absolutely love the IPL. It’s everything that every 20 over cricket tournament should be. 

When I retire in 11 years and 8 months, I’ll be booking my plane ticket to go and watch. I imagine it’s incredible. 

Go Rajasthan!

They'll have been sold the Hundred by then!

Gallagher's main talent seems to be running around a lot

Does he point as well?

The available english players in the premier league are becoming fewer and fewer.

Would Nike have considered playing with the beloved stars and stripes? That would make for an interesting debate in this election year!

People who say “we’re pregnant.” 

No, you can say “we’re having a baby!” but the only pregnant one is the female carrying the baby!

Maggie used to say "We are to be a grand parent." !

(Thatcher) for you young'uns.

Just thinking that. Either that or a Bobby Ewing moment!
