An obvious decision to rectify the lack of consistency in England’s bowling in the first 2 tests…

This side legitimately could be the worst Spurs side I’ve seen.

Was there in the 90s, 03/04 a particular nadir too. George Graham, false dawns, Gary Doherty up front etc etc

So I don’t say that lightly. But this team. Jesus

Looking forward to being told by Tommy’s mates in the media how this really isn’t all his fault and what a good manager he is.

“17th last season” “22 losses” etc etc

Got the treble up this weekend - as an England Cricket, Tottenham and Raiders supporter I’ve had a lovely 48 hours….

Spot on this.

What a Spurs reporter he was, by the way…
Don't think yesterday could realistically have gone any worse for Frank (other than things really unravelling at 3-0). To go in with that approach in that fixture and for it fail so badly is an instant deal-breaker for a lot of fans. Esp as the players looked so uncommitted.

If you have grass in your garden and you rip it up to be replaced with astroturf then you should be on some kind of register.

And on this I will not be convinced otherwise

Not only is this madness because, well obvs. But never ceases to amaze me that football clubs spend a summer transfer window, and £000m’s building (you assume) for a manager’s system/philosophy and then immediately bin him off and rip it all up - in this case due to the owner’s massive ego
Nuno Espirito Santo is set to leave his position as Nottingham Forest head coach, with the club expected to confirm he has been relieved of his duties.

Really excited for the Steelers 2020 season
The Steelers' big-ticket offseason continues. Pittsburgh has added:

After a few days of reflection, I'll start by staying, fair play to the board / Levy for sticking with Ange during the season. I assume they felt his position was untenable, yet they didn't fire him and in return he won the Europa League.

Yet, I am still irked by the board's decision, because;

What. A. Player.

So about those free midweeks we just gained…
Our Premier League away fixture at Fulham has been provisionally rescheduled for Sunday 16 March – kick-off time TBC 🗓️

This will be further rescheduled to Wednesday 19 February, should we progress in the Carabao Cup.

I like this. Good start

Cannot understate how massive that win is for spurs. Means top 8 and, more importantly at the current time, 2 free midweeks at the end of February is very likely now

I mean as a Raiders fan this is very much #firstworldproblems but…it might be the right conclusion?
The Steelers are known for being one of the NFL’s most patient teams, believing in continuity above all else.

But Barack Obama was still the sitting president the last time Mike Tomlin won a playoff game.
