    [Misc] Super Bowl Ticket Pricing Chart

    The nearest equivalent I can think of would be paying £3.5k (cheapest seat on the OP’s table) to watch the Albion in a Champion’s League final (as if). Possibly England in a WC final? For the Albion, I would expect to be able to pick up a ticket from the club, so no. For England in a WC final...

    [Technology] Anyone else playing Wordle?

    The line in your post that revealed today’s word was only the second time it’s happened in over 2000 posts. The overwhelming majority of people don’t do it, so I don’t think it’s unreasonable to conclude that they would prefer others not to as well. However, if the consensus was that doing so...

    A second vote for Mass. 90 minutes. A masterpiece. Astonishing writing, directing, and acting from a 4-way ensemble cast. Watch it.

    [Misc] Employment Law and Planning Permission?

    I think that if any of what you post can be proved, ideally in writing, then the person who wrote the email (and the company, if it can be similarly proved they knew/authorised said communication) would be in a world of pain should, say, a whistleblower err blew the whistle. They’d be in an...

    [Misc] Employment Law and Planning Permission?

    They might try that argument. Would not succeed, imo. May not stop them threatening the employee with it if they were that determined.

    [Misc] Employment Law and Planning Permission?

    Unless their contracts of employment explicitly (or possibly, implicitly) contain such a clause, or a clause that could reasonably be so construed, I’d say ‘no’. It would be an unusual contract that so provided (unusual, as in I’ve never seen one). That said, any objecting employee would be...

    [Other Sport] Djokovic held at airport

    I saw in the BBC article a reference to a German investigation, but it didn’t say that the Germans had seen confirmation of a 26/12 test date. If so, that’s very damning. The more I learn about Djokovic the less impressed with him I become. Undoubtedly a great tennis player, but also quite the...

    [Albion] Survey: What do you think of Tony Bloom?

    Tony Bloom’s ok, I suppose. He should have bought another 3,300 Spurs tickets so that another 500 fans could have attended the game though. Offset against that, he’s subbed the club £400m+ (I’ve lost track, tbh), and we’re watching attacking football played by full internationals. Oh, and we’re...

    [Other Sport] Djokovic held at airport

    If the Oz govt conclude there is something fishy about his test date and that he lied about it on entry to the country, there’ll be enormous public pressure to not shorten his 3-year ban from entry. He might not be playing in the Oz open for a while. The French may also take a dim view this...

    [Other Sport] Djokovic held at airport

    The BBC are reporting that the serial number of Djokovic’s +ve PCR test strongly suggests it was taken between 25 and 28 Dec and not on 16 Dec as claimed when he entered Oz. They’ve asked both the Serbian authorities and Djokovic’s team for comment, but have had no reply so far. I wish I could...
