Someone give Mike Stowell a medal

 

Fergie is pushing for Man U to appoint Steve Walsh as head of recruitment but Ed Woodward wants Rio Ferdinand

 

Hamza Choudhury has given a peno away and sent off by var

Shocking challenge which deserved a red. France missed the peno though. They have missed 2 tonight

 

Leicester Tigers are up for sale for £60M

I dont follow rugby so not fussed what happens with them but suggestion from Stringer is they are trying to get King Power to buy them

Vichai’s passions was Football, Polo and Horse racing which is all something King Power are heavily involved in so I cant see Top buying a rugby club

 

I’m a tigers season ticket holder and after hearing these rumours all day just pray it’s true...

 

King Power hasnt shown any interest according to the Tigers

Tigers Chief Executive-

“I think King Power have done a fantastic job with Leicester City, so an owner like that would be perfect in my mind. We have had no discussion with them though.”

If thats not a come get me plea then I dont know what is

 

Great read this

 

Rob Tanner has left the Mercury

 

Soyuncu looks like he has had a good summer. Looks much stronger

 

As long as it's not just a case of being more headstrong. Let's hope he's worked as hard on his decision making and composure.

 

I dont know how many on here like cricket but I know Fosse does

But its ****ing great to be world champions

Not as good as Premier League champions but still a good feeling

 

I went around my parents and was switching with sitting with my mum and watching the tennis and then sitting with my dad watching the cricket all while having the F1 on my phone.

Was a good day.

 

Best game of cricket you will EVER see.

 

In my life you wont see many better individual performances then Ben Stokes that day. Amazing all round performance.

 

Slid his bat like an expert. Did England score more runs in 50 overs, no. In the super over, no. Did the umpires get it wrong in awarding six runs with the over throws, yes. NZ were robbed . Did I mention Stokes is a Kiwi as well...

 

You cant say it was the difference though. He would have needed 3 off the last ball rather then 2 and would have gone for a boundary so who knows what would have happened?


New Zealand have every right to feel hard done by but they wasnt robbed

Roy, Curran are born in South Africa
Archer Barbados
Morgan Ireland
Stokes New Zealand

Loads of players have played for England and been born outside this country
