I'd have left it there

That's the modern trend of playing a left-footed player on the right though.

I'd associate a hot tub more with charv types who've come into some money.

Lean, mean rent boys?

3 out of 16. Smart telly, dyson vac and matching coasters. Used to have shit loads of vinyl but that was pre-hipster anyway.

Maybe, but that wasn't my point anyway. I was just trying to articulate why I thought something that shouldn't even by anything approaching a close contest is a lot tighter than most would've predicted.

Irrespective of that, the point is that loads of the people I just described clearly do.

Like yourself I don't want him to win but I think you're spot on in the sense that it's just putting off the real problem of neo-liberalism til further down the line. You just answered your own question. Of course it's her marriage to the former president.

You can fucking talk.

It's the status quo v a right-wing nutter feeding off bigotted hatred. The problem with that is that the establishment have created scenario in which, by making the working and middle classes realively poorer than they were previously, it has become obvious how self-serving that establishment is and how they have continued to concentrate more and more of the wealth in the hands of the few. Up against that almost anything seems palatable. Even without the aforementioned mistakes and questionable things Clinton has done, she could hardly be more representative of the political old guard. In that context even a total fucking loony toon like Trump seems like a viable alternative.

There'll definitely be clubs willing to employ him like. Just look at the likes of Marlon King and Lee Hughes

As I said about Fury last month in this thread:

Erm, yeah, but no, but yeah

I've said previously, in a less pejorative sense, that he was a perfect fit for that club but he really is now.

Well I was pretty shocked about this. It's absolutely the right decision, which is the reason I was shocked, i.e. the FA doing the right thing. Like Caesar's wife, the England manager should be above suspicion. He's shown almost unbelievable levels of greed, stupidity and a lack of judgement (although I suppose the greed shouldn't surprise me or anyone else). It's fantastic to see someone like him undone by his own folly and arrogance.

24ct Nugget that one

Aye.

It happens fairly regularly though, i.e. 'declaration bowling'. Used to be even more common when were more matches and they were all 3 day games.

Yorkshire's only real chance of winning is for Middlesex to get their runs quite quickly and declare. It's an amazing climax. I wonder if it's ever happened before. It must be rare enough for both sides in the final match being crowned champions if they beat their closest rivals but even more so with a draw seeing a third team win.

I suppose both sides might think that if you can't win you try and make sure you don't lose. I think the difference in prize money between 2nd and 3rd is quite a lot, especially to your average county player. I think if there's a result in this match the winner takes the title but the losers would end up third.
