    Football stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    I genuinely have no recollection of Angus Gunn being called up for England. :dontgetit Or Jack Cork, if it comes to that. Was it a "bring your sons to work" day or something?!

    I mean, we've lost Wasps, London Irish and Worcester in the last 2 or 3 years due to financial snafus so something's rotten in the state of rugger buggery. The former two (all due respect to Worcester) are both pretty resonant names in the English domestic game. Wasps former European champions...

    As I understand players who want to change national allegiances must have a pre-existing qualification (birth, parents or grandparents) to the country they wish to play for in the future. So if Tupou has a granny from Tokyo or Toulon he could play for the Cherry Blossoms or Les Bleus 3 years...

    Wobblies want to get shot of Giteau's Law and select from players based anywhere. Fair to say it hasn't done the Boks any harm.

    And it's still an absolute bastard to get tickets for England internationals at Twickers except for Italy and the token tier two nation we throw an autumn international at.

    Not primarily aimed at Aussies I dare suggest; Lions tour seen as a huge cash cow from the Brits and Micks that will inevitably descend. Disgraceful for all that though, yeah.

    Think the final table actually ended up being a relatively fair reflection of where the nations are currently too, with maybe only England being ahead of Scotland the difference in my own completely unscientific rankings. Welsh be buggered though; provincial sides have gone to **** too.

    **Official** English Football Season 2023/24

    Not unhappy with Bryan, tbh. Obviously Dortmund was the plum tie, but given we could've got Real, Barca or Citeh, Bryan/Athletico/PSG are all much of a muchness. Sides of the draw look wee bit uneven though, it must be said...

    Given it's our first CL knock out stage win since 2010 (also Porto, weirdly enough), I'll still take it, tbh.

    It's been the tightest tournament for a while; not-at-all hilarious Leekist crapness notwithstanding.:ph34r: Going into the final weekend there's a possibility that Scotland could win, securing the triple crown and (mathematically, at least) the title, but could equally lose and finish fifth.

    Only if one's caught, hence the need to check if the doors are locked.

    One would hope even the most callow British imbibers would know to time their heaves to when the cab's red light is off to facilitate their egress and rapid exit on foot to avoid a constable's intervention, tbf.

    Plus they're too busy out raping and murdering to actually file reports, poor little loves. Tangentially related: anyone see the BBC doc on Sarah Everard? It's a great piece of filmmaking but a bloody hard watch; heartbreaking and infuriating by equal measure. Met does not come out of it well.

    I'd guess the copper had his (it's almost certainly a man) body cam running? Couldn't she go down the "it was sarcasm" route a la Terry? Stretches credulity, but potentially muddies the waters.

    Petracca, tbf; I pluralised for (obviously failed) comedic effect. AFL not really your bag though, is it?

    I'm a little surprised too, tbh, but that's possibly indicative of my own biases as much as anything else. I'd have guessed yer Cumminses, Smiths, Warners, Petraccas, Bontempellis, Clearys and Tedescos would have way more brand recognition.
