  1. I think the she'll pretty much follow the agenda BJ has set for England, financially I don't see how she can do otherwise.
  2. Gotta wonder if Ineos would've done better leaving it to Pogacer to keep O'Conner out of yellow?
  3. .....................and Pogacer goes!
  4. Coupla drop outs today, Roglic finally succumbing to the crash on Day 3 and Van der Poel to concentrate on the Olympics.
  5. Might just be in pox-ridden South Ayrshire but I've noticed more people going about maskless in shops during the last week, I reckon the SG will have a hard time holding the line past Aug 7th if (as expected) it becomes non-mandatory in England.
  6. Just re-read my last post to and didn't mean it to sound sarky - just that I thought UEFA had taken action to prevent this sorta problem from happening but wasn't 100'% certain.
  7. There's always been a segment (quite a large one!) of the left that are contemptuous of ordinary people who think that they and the "experts" they find it convenient to agree with must be obeyed, conversely there is a segment of the neo-liberal right that will find it hard to accept to accept the Keynsian measures that have been brought in to mitigate lockdown and would have preferred minimal state intervention and to let the pandemic rip.
  8. I thought UEFA had introduced regulations to stop this sorta practice, although perhaps I dreamed this. On a more general note, so far the most worrying aspect of this close season has been the lack of things to worry about.
  9. Pogacer & Carapaz ride away from the main group and then Pogacer breaks Carapaz. Pogacer riding through the initial breakaway group now - gotta luv the mountain stages!
  10. See Ghislane Maxwell's lawyer is trying "the Cosby defence" although it is apparently unlikely to succeed in her case.
  11. Yeah, his post-match comments in The Grauniad suggest, to me anyway, if he can't play his way back into being a contender again then he'll be looking to wind down and retire. Andy Murray’s wild journey ends with thumping from Denis Shapovalov | Wimbledon | The Guardian
  12. Bit of an old fashioned day - good to get a stage where the team orders didn't come out on top. Coupla mountain stages to end the first "week".
  13. So, it looks like we'll be moving from finishing the Covid vaccination program into a booster / flu jab program for us oldies & other at risk groups...
  14. Skylab could always send one of their Terminators back to last year to take out Kibble.
  15. If Skyview had wanted shares in the club the time was last year when they could have challenged Kibble but I wouldn't want SMISA to go below the 51% they currently own.
  16. Crashtastic day again - always interesting to compare the injuries pro-cyclists are prepared to ride with against the those that cause their fitba compadres to roll about. You don't have to be mad to ride Le Tour but....
  17. I remember watching a quiz show where the winner had to name bands that contained genuine family members for the big prize, the guy missed out with his final choice by selecting The Doobie Brothers as the real deal - splifftastic! ****************** PS - Slightly off-topic but acid-rock stalwarts Spirit contained Randy California and his step-father Ed Cassidy on drums.
  18. Interesting to see ex-Chancellor Sajid Javid replacing Hancock, Javid's resignation seemed to be down to Dom/Boris wanting him to fire all his Spads. I imagine he'll be a nodding dog this time around.
  19. Agreed as I've said previously we are negotiating these deals from a position of weakness, which is not going to help our govt. getting any concessions on NI as I'm sure the EU will see us a Trojan Horse and that is without taking into consideration nobody will trust BJ. To reference the original post it really is a farce.
