Info on this game seems somewhat sparse. I'm considering making a late dash through for it. I take it I can buy tickets at the stadium? If I'm a little late (every possibilty) can I buy tickets after kick off?
Any tips on where to park?
I see Belgium have the group pretty much won already, but does finishing second get us anything in terms of qualification?

I heard a rumour that Putin is hiding in a bunker, and has been since this started.
He done a big eff off 'gig' at the Luznikhi last Friday did he not?

Fair play to Utd. That 2nd half it was obvious within a minute or so that they were after us. I don't honestly think I've seen a team ragdoll us so mercilessly as they did in that 2nd 45 yesterday. Whatever Courts said at half time and whatever Robinson said clearly had polar opposite effects as we looked like we'd totally shat ourselves and Utd knew it.
The second half was the best United had played in months. Not sure if the players abandoned Courts' tactics or if Courts abandoned Courts'tactics. There was a huge emphasis on just getting the ball forward. Something we'd been crying out for for ages.

Sanctions seem to not really impacted the ordinary person in the street , so far, other than some prices have increased.
I read prices have risen 2%.
Our own inflation is higher!

Russias terms, according to Peshkov
- Recognition of Crimea as Russian
- Recognition of LPR and DPR as independent states
- Constitutional neutrality for Ukraine.
Obviously they decided to do without deNazification and demilitarisation m, happy to have drug addicts and neo-Nazis in charge in Kyiv.
Ukrainian side have said that they are open to discussions on neutrality. There isn’t anything that will change Crimeas status now.
The foreign ministers of Russia and Ukraine are going to meet in Turkey in three days for talks.
Sounds preferrable to Nuclear War to me

DW reporting that US trying to formulate a plan to supply 'aircraft' to Ukraine via. Poland.
Ratcheting up.......Seen that. Has a very ' here we go...' feel about it. Also this would Poland doing this "as a sovereign nation" and not NATO - aye right.
The conflict can't be allowed to suck other nations in, but this is the beginning of just that.

Penicuik Athletic 1-2 Blackburn United. Bad loss for Penicuik but still have a game in hand on Linlithgow. For Blackburn a big win that leaves them 1 point away from getting out of relegation places. 251 in attendance.
Football is a strange game.
I was at the reverse fixture just last week which Penicuik dominated throughout. Hard to believe they'd then lose to Blackburn just seven days later

At some point there must be a red line for NATO, EU and UN, if there continues to be disregard for civilian lives, flattening of residential areas and schools etc? Obviously the risk and consequences of accelerating WW3 are unthinkable but we can’t sit back until Ukraine is literally a scorched wasteland of dead bodies.
You’ ve got to hope there is a powerful enough body of dissent within the Kremlin that either gets Putin to reign in his war or else move him out, with or without his consent.
Disagree. If today's nuclear weapons had been around at the time of WW1 and WW2 you can be sure they'd have been used.
Be under no illusions, WW3 is a nuclear war and has to be avoided at all costs. The reality of the situation is, and unpallatable though it is, Ukraine is one of those costs.
However news channels are clearly on the cusp of ratcheting up pressure on the politicians who will no doubt eventually give in

NATO are going to have to be strong on the no fly zone. Zelensky putting more pressure on again over night.

Will the Livingston game be on DUTV (or Livingston TV for that matter)?
Not sure about going, but want to see the match and was wondering if I'd be able to see it that way?

Mental The Wedding Present should get a mention on this thread, but with good reasons.
They re-released (or something akin to that) the John Peel Sessions today with 100% of profits going to a Ukrainian aid fund. All sold out straight away, but they are looking to re-stock ASAP

Can you be more precise, I get paid this week and need to know if I have to do shopping.
Within a week I'd say. Just get a two pint milk carton in. Wouldn't bother with a four pint effort

Can't see any other outcome than WW3 now - which would most probably be nuclear.

"Russia will close its airspace to Romanian airliners “due to unfriendly decisions by Romanian aviation authorities”, Russian federal aviation agency Rosaviatsiya said on Saturday. Romania earlier banned Russian airlines from its airspace.
Meanwhile, Lithuania will also close its airspace to Russian airlines at 10pm GMT on Saturday due to the invasion, the government said, blocking access from Russia’s Kaliningrad enclave to Ukraine."
Kaliningrad completey cut off then?

Talks (and a ceasefire) need to happen here and sharp. It was mooted of sorts yesterday but the venue (understandably) would seem to be an issue.
I don't profess to fully understand all this, and this might be overly simplistic, but can they not use b*****ding Zoom for these talks?

Rangers should've had two penalties but VAR would probably have sent off both Morelos and Jack
No it wouldn't!

Just home. I genuinely can't think what the "two penalties" Kenny McIntyre is frothing at the gub about were. Neither could TC.
We've been on the wrong end of several dodgy decisions this season, yet I can't remember them ever leading to a 'VAR debate' in the manner that it did on Sportsound today.

Bournemouth v Nottingham forest postponed tonight. Not holding my breath but I wonder if Sky might now elevate tonight's match to be on TV?

Fair amount of commotion about the Russian figure skating girl. Rightly so too it would seem.
But I must say, and this as someone who couldn't give a toss about the 'sport'; her routine, allied with some incredibly haunting music (In Memoriam by Kirill Richter I've subsequently found it) was really quite mesmerising.

Am I being overly dramatic in fearing this could well snowball into a World War?

Will forgive that performance as the game was played on what was essentially a ploughed field.
Through and that's all that counts
