Gloucester Saint

Only our 13th ever gold in the winter games and 1st solo men’s since Robin Cousins in 1980. Brilliant from Matt Weston in the skeleton.

He was scared because he thought it was the taxman. Zahawi should come from Portsmouth.

I bet he was having a right old Tommy Tank when Robinson posted that.

It’s looking more like the National League system. And don’t even get me started on the lack of three up three down between that and League 2.

Blackburn are really poor - unfathomable that Saints lost up there and Still deserved the push on that result alone. Another very unpopular and out of touch ownership too. If you’re one of the Champ’s bigger teams struggling, with Weds, Oxford and them, this is the season to be shit. Can’t believe we didn’t beat the skates twice either as they’re dreadful.

I don’t think this is a fight he should pick and he’s become obsessed with Reform and related issues. Ratcliffe’s comments are lazy Boomer slop that he’s picked up from the Mail or Telegraph and miles off reality, so I don’t neccessarily agree that Ratcliffe shouldn’t be challenged but there’s plenty of others picking up the challenge so an under pressure PM didn’t need to join in.

Not just a fair bit out - 8million is quite some margin of error. Personally I don’t think it’s a fight Starmer should pick, his response to Davey wasn’t very bright either, and his judgement is bloody awful. But Ratcliffe’s comments were miles off as well and bullshit, so one idiot doesn’t make the other idiot valid. If I was with our Exec Board at work and I was as far out on my facts as Ratcliffe was, I’d get torn to shreds and wouldn’t be credible. Starmer shouldn’t have joined in but Ratcliffe doesn’t do Man U any favours either.

Disgrace of a human being too. I’m sure at least 65m zealots would disagree though.

Was that Austin who appealed and then scored the free kick? Presuming that was v Wigan for WBA.

Who are notoriously inaccurate about anything vaguely data-related or technical these days.

I think Labour re-introduced the Free Speech bill but I can’t claim to know the technicalities I’m afraid. I think it was linked into the large Sussex fine which is currently being contested at the High Court.

What’s the source in this report/data?

Ed Davey gets shit on here from some quarters but he knows how to rattle opponents. That’s why there was the pile onto him about the Post Office after the Tories were wound up by him (despite the fact it was multiple parties responsible and unless you had a PhD in computer science you still wouldn’t have uncovered it anyway). I wish he’d cut out the comic cuts crap on campaigns but easy to underestimate him.

I broadly agree but there’s a duty they have of freedom of speech both ways - external and internal. And having been a student myself in the 1990s student societies can get very touchy about top down edicts (and that was long before the Lord Brown Review and the fee hikes). If I was them, I’d have had a counter-statement saying that they thought Reform should have been heard but respecting the autonomy of student bodies. The top Unis are engaging with Reform a lot more and there seems to be some reciprocation. I would if I was a Vice Chancellor.
