This. I was disappointed....last night was by far the worst Scotland have played in about 11 games.

But it's true though no? England's last WC campaign is best forgotten. And even Saturday v Slovenia...that first half was not anything like how they played last night.


In relative terms England are playing far worse than their average standard historically. Scotland also (although much improved since dire Bertie Voghts era).

It might be true (it is), but it's still the bitter parting shot of a sore loser.

We're not having much luck with injuries in all positions.

Ditto, Saturday is going to be the battle of the walking wounded...

The recent appointment of Malky Mackay is very distasteful. Yet another example of a chairman and the FA having no clue as to what is and isn't acceptable in the modern world. I can't help feeling the black players at Wigan are probably uncomfortable at best and betrayed at worst. Trouble is Scudamore got off, and Mackays lawyers will no doubt cite that in any case brought against him.

    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
