Hard to put your finger on quite why the Hundred is so shit. I get up early in December to watch Finn Allen bat in Big Bash. Opens with Duckett here, ought to be fun to watch. The whole thing is just forced nonsense. Doubling down on a mistake would be disastrous. It’s got to go.

My one day a year standing on the rails with my next door neighbour @DanielRichard41. If you’re at Ascot today come and have a bet with us, I’ll even try to sort you next price up if I can (no promises!)

The people who voted Don’t Know are more dangerous than the ones who’d take the 50k.
If you had a choice between instantly receiving £50,000 or a 50% chance to win £1m, which would you pick?
£50,000: 73%
50/50 chance of winning £1m: 21%
And I’m disappointed that his first touch leaves stewards, police officers and young children running for safety, so we’re square.
I’m disappointed Wolves have taken this approach.
Under the new FIFPRO regulations, clubs are no longer permitted to deny a first-team player the opportunity to train with the first team or effectively force them out. It’s a breach of contract.

They came to Molineux on Easter Monday, 2002. 1st vs 2nd, billed as a title decider. But was men against boys. Completely outplayed. Lots of people say it was a certain other club who broke Wolves that season. Really it was Keegan’s team.

Only a small part of the Kevin Keegan story but I was completely in love with his City team, Ali Benarbia, Eyal Berkovic, Shaun Wright-Phillips etc. You had to be *such* a football optimist and romantic to build a team like that in the Championship, especially 25 years ago. RIP.

Three mins for the hydration break, couple of injuries, a substitution. Should be six minutes added here. Last World Cup they routinely added too much, this time never enough. Shouldn’t be that tough should it

Arsenal get so lucky so often. They almost did this disaster deal but now someone else made it an even bigger disaster and stopped them

Nothing more British than the little half-arsed fake jog up the stairs from the pub toilet when you spot someone at the top waiting for you to come up.

They’ve got it absolutely nailed. Everyone in every enclosure loves it. The leading racing day out now. Just turn up the commentary on the big screen by the O&T lawn / entrance to parade ring when the race is on and it’ll be perfect.

Whenever I have a bad day (and the remote control went flying for the first time this tournament last night when Germany scored) I read tweets like this and remind myself there’s a good few years left in this game yet

These data geeks are hilarious. Scotland’s chances of progressing with three points and a -2 or -3 goal difference: 73.9%. Oh hang, Netherlands have scored again: 77.2%. Hold up: Undav has scored for Germany against Ivory Coast. It’s changed again. Everybody’s guessing
