  1. Relegation after a couple of days out end of last week, (Foo Fighters @ Villa park and a break from a lot of things) So time to fight back. Monday - 9 And wrong Shakespeare.
  2. Seems to be the new norm, but would it kill to have an extra column that shows games played, just doesn't look right. UEFA Euro 2024 - Groups & Schedule (bbc.co.uk)
  3. Assuming you mean 2nd on share of the vote. They will be well behind Labour, Tory, SNP, Lib Dems, a couple of the parties in N Ireland and possibly Plaid.
  4. Probably because the Gambling Commission looking at him too Tory director of campaigning being looked into over election betpublished at 11:01 11:01BREAKING Chris Mason and Laura Kuenssberg The BBC can reveal that the Conservative Party’s director of campaigning Tony Lee is also being looked into by the Gambling Commission over an alleged bet relating to the timing of the general election. The BBC reported earlier this morning that Lee – who, we understand, took a leave of absence from his job yesterday afternoon – is married to the Conservative candidate who is also being looked into by the betting industry regulator. Laura Saunders, the party’s candidate in Bristol North West has worked for the Tories since 2015.
  5. So the 2nd one is married to the campaign director, they just can't help themselves, Tory candidate being looked into over election betting married to party's campaign directorpublished at 08:22 08:22BREAKING Chris Mason Political editor The BBC can reveal this morning that the Conservative candidate being looked into by the Gambling Commission over a bet relating to the timing of the general election is married to the party’s Director of Campaigns. Laura Saunders, the party’s candidate in Bristol North West, has worked for the Tories since 2015. It is not known when the bet was placed or for how much money. She is married to Tony Lee, who is the Conservative Party’s Director of Campaigns. Saunders has been approached for comment by the BBC and has not replied. A Conservative Party spokesman told the BBC: “We have been contacted by the Gambling Commission about a small number of individuals. As the Gambling Commission is an independent body, it wouldn’t be proper to comment further, until any process is concluded.”
  6. Please also add the bawbags with the flags that obliterate the view of about 50 fans behind them every time they wave the bloody things, and arseholes with flares (trousers or the smoky variety). I actually am there to watch the football. Main stand and a pie and bovril for me these days.
  7. Have you considered counting down towards zero, much tenser as the numbers lower.
  8. So that would be the original city council planners that decided ' this will be a good place to build, those extinct volcanoes are barely noticeable'.
  9. Farage has now gone full Trump, from the launch this morning, So he fully expects to take over a political party and be running for PM by the next GE. Has anyone explained how being UK PM works? NEW Posted at 11:5711:57 This morning's news in 150 words Reform UK's Nigel Farage - set to launch the party's manifesto today - told the BBC the UK's "exploding population" should be a key election issue and he "absolutely" intends to run for PM in 2029
  10. If the Tories end up with less than 90 MPS, which some polls are saying, even if Reform only it 1 or 2 MPs fully expect a stormy summer and autumn. The Tory Party will implode with infighting and a new Reformed Conservative / Conservative Reform party may emerge with Farage holding some sort of Shadow cabinet post. The infighting will be brutal.
  11. If you use the ends of the country names its all Denmark SweDEN v DenMARK SWEden v DENmark
  12. Exactly 54 years ago today W Germany beat England 3 - 2 after extra tie in the QF of the Mexico 70 World Cup, knocking them out of the WC, leading to Scotland qualifying for the next 5 in a row (and England kept failing), and a glorious era of Scotland being at tournaments was my youth. Just 90 mins later I was born and if my dad had his way my name would have been ****** Beckenbauer Seeler Muller ******, now that would be some middle names, again today sees another hopefully great day in the annuls of scottish football, I've seen a few over the days on this date. But enough of this distraction, only scored bloody 8 today. 2 from McGinn will make it ten today please.
  13. The final paragraphs of that story are, Former Tory MP Bob Stewart had represented Beckenham since 2010. Ms Gray, a Conservative Bromley councillor and former opera singer, is hoping to retain the constituency for the party. Liam Conlon, the son of Sir Keir Starmer’s chief of staff and partygate investigator Sue Gray, is standing for Labour candidate. Wonder how he got that job.
  14. The De War one made it as far as the BBC. Few years ago was watching Heir Hunters (chasing estates of stiffs with wills but no known family). And one of the appeals the voiceover did was for someone called De War, and then the name Dewar appeared on the telly, they screwed up another Scottish name that day too, but can't remember that one.
  15. Do you ever think sometimes the ground staff do these sort of things for a bet or shits & giggles. They probably have a monthly pool, and this months winner was Eric that managed to send a couple of bams to Kaunas instead of Barcelona.
  16. Think you need to check this week, On Monday I checked I was registered (couldn't remember doing the still living there form either), got it confirmed, registered again for my postal vote (that had lapsed), and by Tuesday PM had an email confirming all good and I have a postal vote. Best get it done this week, it closes on Tuesday, A General Election has been called for 4 July 2024. Register to vote by 11:59pm on 18 June 2024. Types of election, referendums, and who can vote: General election - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
