Lots of speculation based on very little reliable data so far. Anyone that actually knows what they are talking about is being very careful in terms of what they say while waiting for better data. About the only things I seem to hear consensus on, apart from the fact that it's heavily...

As a generalization I like the Dutch, but I do find they can be alarmingly forthright

Both these pundits after the game are good

Given family pressures, transport is the least of my problems in terms of attending. Family comes first and so it's highly unlikely I will be there. Stupid, horrible, money grubbing decision. Just IMO like.

An interesting question, so I checked and, essentially, no. Not according to wikipedia: With regard to the use of this honorific, the policies of institutions of higher education generally ask that recipients "refrain from adopting the misleading title"[4] and that a recipient of an honorary...

I have nothing against Reading in particular, but that video is always worth watching again - you spot something new each time On 1.21 look out for the woman who I reckon has just found out the Brighton score and is scuttling the hell out of there to save face before everyone else realises.

Not wanting to get too caught up in this, but a few points that I think are important There is no formal definition of tax avoidance but the one that is widely accepted would be along the lines of 'within the letter of the law but not the spirit of the law'. Or something like not using the law...

I'm irrationally terrified of that 0% Guiness I think it's a faux-beer

You really don't understand science.

I just wish some people would admit that they are terrified of needles, rather than spinning themselves into an ever more confusing logical mess trying to justify why they won't get vaccinated. It can be overcome. I used to hate needles too, but it is almost inevitable that, at some point in...

Oh look, some actual science: '1 in 5 people with COVID infections won’t get antibodies Our latest analysis of data from the app shows that one in five ZOE Study participants who tested positive for COVID didn’t go on to have detectable anti-N antibodies afterwards. This means that even if...

Indeed. I'm hoping we can get an 'Oh Jamal Khashoggi' ( seven nation army) chant going, as loud, as long and as often as possible.

I don't think I've ever wanted to win a mid-season game as much as I do this one. Which leaves me VERY nervous, as I am far from confident. This is exactly the type of game we usually stumble over. I prediect a boring 0-0 but very much hope to be wrong (in the right way).

Ah yes, you've definitely got the hang of a Crodo thread (ie writing utter drivel to try and hook a few dimwits). You've surpassed yourself here!

'you're going home in an electric ambulance' Good old Saudi by the sea Good old Saudi by the sea And we'll tell them all that you sold your soul To be Saudi by the sea

Is the correct answer 'when the used of the word 'banter' is a thinly veiled attempt to excuse racism as part of a cover up that goes to the very top of a major national sport'?

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m00113dp Listen from around 40 mins in Excellent interview with George Dobell, senior correspondence at ESPN Cricinfo, who was involved in uncovering this. He doesn't gloss over the actions of individuals ('banter') but in his coverage he made a decision not...

Who's got their Yemeni flags then? Mine on the way

Putting aside the hilariously sexist commentry that accompanies each picture (and one or two dodgy hair-do's), am I the only one that finds the ladies in these photos considerably more appealing and attractive than most of todays plastic-enhanced, mass-produced, generic-blonde WAGS...

Shout out for March He rarely gets the attention, or praise, that he deserves imo, but he was a big part of that performance today. So consistent and so reliable when called on.
