South America will no longer need to qualify. All 10 teams will go straight to the finals. Italy will still fail to qualify after a penalty shoot-out in the play-offs with Ronaldo, competing as a one-man nation for the first time at 45. And the game will take place in 15 x 4 min segments between ads on TV"

Quelle surprise [Link]

Oakham citra £1.49 a pint, one of my favorite at 1986 prices🍺

OK no worries

No never posted there

Are you the same Golden Wonder that used to post on WISA chat?

That’s what the Revolut account says was paid. I have no idea then as actually hadn’t even broken it down!! Either way it’s hefty

That works out just over 2 dollars for a vodka?

If you want pricey beer I paid $94.50 for 5 cans of Stella yesterday at the stadium in Miami. A later round of 12 cans and 3 Vodkas was $233.

Must be a northener

Some guy just walked past wearing a coat!

So 32 games before a break in serve in Men's final

So the same price as a pint of Stella at Wimbledon: [Link]

And belatedly thanks Tom Swig

On the ball hitting wire thing, FIFA released a statement saying they had checked and it didn't happen.

Not saying Oslo was expensive, but the £8.90 beer at my hotel was the cheapest of my entire stay...

Normal £10

One if my mates us off to Norway tomorrow. I suggested he wears an England top so they can charge him £20 for a pint instead of the normal £20

They can shove their cheese and their rowing where the sun don't shine and fuck off home on the next plane

WJ, that would open a can of worms - is the playing blocking or just waiting his (or her) moment to turn?

Some have a very strange mindset. OI !

Mccullum steps down as Test coach, remains in charge of white ball cricket

I’ve only seen weird grainy Instagram video clips of the ball apparently hitting the wire cam cable - as said below, I cannot detect any contact or movement, and I reckon it’s just hard Norwegian cheese, nothing more or less…

Shielding the ball to let it run out of play = obstruction

AIoW - goal kicks to be taken from the side where the keeper collects the ball - law was changed to speed up getting the ball back into play, but has had the reverse outcome.
