    Davies awarded UEFA A-Licence

    A gent and a proper professional, some of the stick he gets/got in his Player Watch thread, especially during the Conte era, was shocking. Terrific role model, glad he's setting himself up to share that experience he has with the next generation. Go on, Ben.

    The Formula 1 Thread

    Looking at the Red Bull situation from another direction, that was a brand new "power unit" or whatever they call it - no idea why engine is suddenly insufficient, and they did take it all rather calmly. Didn't have any tantrum on the radio from Max, nobody in the pits seemed particularly...

    Or he did and he just found out that it's not on - either way, Alonso never struck me as that sort of driver, very peculiar. Maybe he just doesn't like the silent movie era and every time he sees George Russell he hears distant piano music play and his vision goes black and white. Honestly...

    The Formula 1 Thread

    ??? Are they saying Alonso braking as heavy as he did was deliberately intended to cause Russell to avoid him? I assumed he had missed his braking point or something and it was a cock up. Doesn't seem like the kind of thing he'd be guilty of, really.

    The England Thread

    I was listening to Max + Charlie baker on talksport earlier, pair of them joking that Max was wearing full chain mail and Charlie had an England flag stapled to his face and had got someone to shoot him in the eye with an arrow to demonstrate how patriotic they were :D They interviewed... I...

    Piastri looking fast at home, pleased for him, but the Ferraris look fantastic, Sainz in particular. Some of them kerbs are ruthless though, I guess qualifying they have to go full send but in the race I expect we'll see a lot of drivers going wide if they miss a turn, rather than damage the...

    The England Thread

    Does anyone want to take umbridge at the three "lions"? Laying down they're Leopards. Rampant or rearing up, they are Lions. Where's the outrage? Where's the national pride? #Leopardgate

    The England Thread

    Can't wait to see all the gatekeepers pacing around Wembley, checking the colour of the makeup used for facepaints, to ensure that all flags are the regulation shade of red and suitably white.

    The England Thread

    @ReadieSpur and @The Watcher - Both disagree - can you explain how that decal on a collar is going to change how the players perform, or why it makes any difference whatsoever? Genuinely curious why it's a disagree. Dislike, fine, you don't like my stance on how cotton stitched into a...

    All they need to do is put out a statement saying, "It's not intended to be the St George's Cross, if it was then we would obviously respect the flag and it would be red on a white background. It is a stylized cross design, intended as nothing more than a decoration, inspired loosely by the...

    The England Thread

    I've seen black, white & grey union flags, I've seen American flags with a blue line on, I've seen Australian flags with a kangraoo with a massive penis on it, nobody has ever given a crap about stylized flags other than staunch nationalists... ...Then a football shirt had a cross on the collar...

    The England Thread

    I wish my life was so empty and dull that the colour of a decal on a collar of a shirt is enough to get me all fired up... It makes no difference to how they'll play, the sort of things that people get their petticoats ruffled over. smh.

    Ex-Manager watch: Antonio Conte

    I don't know any of them personally but, with regard to transfers and being asked to sign a player they didn't particularly rate, I imagine Poch would've discussed the merits and done his best to debate signing them, Conte would've argued and declared Levy doesn't know what he's doing, Ange...

    The England Thread

    While I crapped on the squad generally, I'm glad Gordon & Branthwaite have been noticed and I really hope that Southgate gives them both a fair chance. They haven't got in on reputation, they've both earned that and I'm pleased for them.
