I saw someone sum her up nicely:
'the problem isn't that she's an idiot, but that's she thinks she's a genius'
Anyone who did as badly as her, but was equipped with any level of self awareness would just shut up and be forgotten about. |

Nope, I want them to still be fighting on Saturday against Leicester and to still have a chance, however slim, come the final day. Don't want them to potentially roll over for Leeds either, so let them get the win tomorrow and hopefully draw or win against Leicester. |

There is nightmare scenario where all 4 teams could end up on 94 points. |

Well I was contemplating buying a membership to get me up to 10 points to try and make Cov. Saved myself £40, but I'd rather be there. I get a feeling in my gut that it's gonna be a special night. |

My wife actually works with an Imam and she'd asked him about exemptions, etc...
His guidance was that it's a personal thing. Sometimes for health reasons you cannot fast, such as when ill or pregnant and he advised that it is completely fine to break a fast in this situation, as it would be if you were severely dehydrated to drink water. His guidance was along the lines of 'Allah does not want you to come to harm'.
Some people will make up any days of fasting they miss during ramadan because of illness or when they have had to break a fast. In the end, you know your body and you know what you can do. As for exemption, this imam is very laid back and he basically said that you know your body and what you can do. Similarly you know if you are being deceitful in giving yourself an exemption you don't need.
Ps. This is just one Imam, I'm certain that others would have different opinions or disagreements. |

Performing elite level sport, almost always for 90 minutes in Sam's case, without any food or drink for the proceeding 6+ hours and during a high intensity game is pretty impressive.
Honestly I reckon the dehydration is a bigger concern for a sportsperson than the eating. |

It's always reliant on when the moon is sighted so never guaranteed, but based on Sam's tweet it is tonight! Hope he enjoys himself ready for tomorrow.

4 wins and a draw.
That's what the equation. It's tangible now, doesn't even need to be perfection.
I'm glad McKenna and the boys are able to keep focussed on tomorrow, because I'm dreaming ahead now! Massive game tomorrow.

Reply | We miss Burns and Hirst so much.

Burns was the biggest miss for me. Sainz had Hutchinson in his pocket at times whereas in December, Burns ran Sainz absolutely ragged. |

Nothing much in it. They had one good spell of pressure first half resulting in a goal. Maybe they could have done better with their balls over the top to Sargent, but wouldn't say they had loads of scoring chances.
Meanwhile we were able to build up and got some decent balls to the danger areas 2nd half, but by that point they were dropping 10 bodies into the box and we couldn't get the contact.
What pissed me off most was their spell of pressure came from the ridiculous free kick against Tuanzebe. Changed the momentum of that first half. |

Give Moore an extra 10 minutes with hopefully extra service. Rest sounds good. |

The ref is just straight up useless. Could tell with the Tuanzebe decision. It 100% wasn't a free kick, but if you give it Axel has to be off. This clown somehow ends up getting it all wrong.
If they are gonna play clever though, do it straight back. The ref won't give a penalty if he can avoid it so invite the contact outside the box instead. [Post edited 6 Apr 13:23]

For 2014-2023, Nottingham Forest's net transfer spend was near enough the same as Real Madrid (£266m vs £278m), despite only having 1 full season in the Premier league by that point!
Bournemouth also spend the same amount as Bayern Munich (£294m vs £295m) [Post edited 4 Apr 20:49]

Reply | Fulham's new stand - horrific
at 14:01 27 Mar 2024
Ignoring some of the stupid bits like swimming pools, etc... It's a quite nice looking stand. Issue for me is it's very heavy on the business clients and tourist daytrippers and not enough for real fans. Given some of the costs for tickets I'm hearing, it's a rip off.
It's a balancing act between providing what corporate and hospitality demands nowadays, but not forgetting that most of your fans want a seat and maybe the odd concession, not bistro dining experiences. Feels a bit to me like this stands is 80% corporate with the general admission corners being a price gouge for daytrippers* and not hitting the required balance. |

Sounds more like battle stations in the heat of battle. Imagine it's one of those scenarios where you need to stay calm and just let your training kick in. The thing you might prepare for all your career and never need to do in anger.
It's been reported that during the incident that the ship's captain radioed a mayday to the authorities which led to cars being stopped from crossing, saving extra lives. A small mercy. |

There is footage covering a few minutes before the collision. It appears the lights go out and comeback multiple times. Then late on the you can see thick black smoke from the funnel. Not sure if the smoke means there is an issue or that's the engine being ragged at full power for last minute evasive manoeuvres.
Unfortunately I can't find where I saw the original video and now I can only find copies shared by conspiracy theorists or morons selling monkey pictures, so apologies in advance for the link.
