Fine if it were just Nigel Farage BUT it ISN'T. A Ppriest was told to go forth and multiply because he dissed women having penises, amongst many others.

So who is this tv presenter then?

You don’t have twitter then I guess soc

Surely a damning indictment of Britain that everyone cares about a TV personality taking a picture of his own a****** than anything Important. Obviously of course it isn’t at all a planted diversion to take the focus off Boris refusing to give his mobile phone over to the covid enquiry.

I do TG, I just haven't seen who it is.

Apologies for the delay PG but yes, I would. Bit like asking whether I’d stick with Root. Class is permanent…

Bairstow didn’t have a great match and indeed he hasn’t had a great series. BUT I think he’s a remarkably destructive batsman who will come off at some point. He’s an ok wk who hasn’t kept for a while; I think he’s got the skill to sharpen up.

Foakes is undoubtedly a better keeper and he’s a decent batter but he’ll never dominate an attack like Bairstow can - and as he pretty regularly has. On the basis of recent series before Barstow broke his leg, I agree with the selection policy and I can’t see it changing.

For me, the difference in the 3rd test was Wood. 96mph is a game changer. All of a sudden, we are competing in the bowling department.

Evening Soc,

Weren’t you disbarred from Twitter the other day?

I thought they’d finally seen what the rest of us have seen and they’re finally coming after your Coots account too.

First I've heard of it. There is a current court case against the imposition as Khan's calculations were very iffy.

Another report that it is our lawyers who are delaying the deal by failure to work out the final wording on the contract. What are they working to union rules or something. Work thru the night and weekends and get it done.

Not very seriously, but apart from your good self who cares about this? Also remember, people need their sleep...

Anyone know what the local time is for kick off for this game ?

Their page is 6 days out and I can't be bothered to work it out. ;-)

A priest was also turned away from Coots?? Why does a priest have over a million in disposable income??

The tragedy is there are places where the current culture war does throw up genuine questions that require thought and reasoned debate and there aren’t easy answers. I’m not sure I’ve seen you actually nail one. Please whisper it quietly but I’m inclined to agree with TG, the distractions take up the public discourse and the important things get lost in the outrage.

Are we caring that Farage had his bank account at Coots closed because he literally didn’t meet the eligibility criteria of a million quid??

I’m sure that’s a terrible high society snub for Nigel, but whatever your politics that’s a non story really?

“Rich man isn’t rich enough to have a status symbol bank account for the super rich and has to NatWest it with the rest of us plebs”

There fixed it for you. Why should Nigel Farage be allowed to hold an account at Coots when he hasn’t had a million pounds in the account (the one basic criteria for holding an account there) for 10 years now?

One could argue he’s been given undue privilege for the past 10 years…

I dislike people being shouted down, or ‘silenced’ or ‘cancelled’ whoever they are, and sure it goes on, but this ain’t it.

Obviously you have not worked in the law. If he doesn’t make the US tour it’s not exactly a great start to integrating with the team.

And you based this on. Also I have come to dislike people amending other people's posts. It looks like I posted the above.

I own a Nigel Farage duvet don’t you know.

Do you ?

Exactly. Whenever my lawyers are poring over a nine figure contract, not only do I keep them in a state of complete exhaustion but I constantly drum into them that the speed of their work is the only thing I care about. Time is money and attention to detail is for pussies.

Reasonable debate, actually debate, is only being denied by the left. It is the extreme me trans lefties that are trying to stop the screenings of a film about child kidnapping. It is the lefties Uni's that are supporting them.

Speaking as a lefty-ish person. Would love to try to debate ... but need to be able to have clue what you are talking about first. Babbling, lack of attention to grammar, and free association does not lead to clarity. For example, what are "extreme me trans lefties", and how is this related to Farage's bank account?

Pau Torres signs for Villa for about £31m. He was touted at double that to much bigger clubs than villa only a few years back.
Having Emery as manager must have been a big factor there

we’ll said !,

I know I figured it out with this guy long ago

Pedant when it suits you.

Take out the me, hopefully even you can make out what I'm saying!

Deli Ali’s interview with Gary Neville is pretty hard hitting stuff. Didn’t know what he’s been through as a kid

It's made me stop and think.
