I believe so. I'd expect Lossie FB page to confirm sooner rather than later

That's as good as a blackout isn't it? No idea what TNT's subscriber numbers are mind. Add in the stupid o'clock starts and it's hardly worth it.

Re: Mallet Blow exercises ??

We need a "like" button this forum.....enjoying the posts Agreed, brilliant thread. As a kid from the NE I was nowhere near an operational RAF base. I used to visit Newcastle Airport in the hope of seeing something interesting, and there were the airshows on the old Usworth airfield (now the Nissan...

Re: VAR

The VAR official will be the scape goat but Szymon Marciniak aka the referee should be suspended also. Ultimately he didn’t have to give it. He won’t be suspended as he’s the poster boy for UEFA referees. Agreed. He was superb up to that point from what I saw (admittedly I was flicking between 3 ga...

Very telling. Never a penalty, just like the vast majority that are given these days. And I'm from Sunderland!

Re: The Ashes 2023

The declaration wasn't the problem, it was too many batsmen throwing their wickets away in the second innings. Root, Brook and Bairstow all poor shots. Got to be smarter than that.

Re: England tour of New Zealand 2023

England have been awesome to watch since Stokes became captain, but they really need to find a slower gear to bat in when 'Bazball' (hate that word!) just isn't needed. Threw this match away really. Can't wait to see how they fare against Australia and India though.

Re: Top Gun Maverick

Not at all. There’s some theory about how there’s only 6 different stories you can tell? There’s lots of truly original films but they don’t make any money. I get why it’s so popular on here, I just don’t get the overwhelmingly positive reviews. Considering the Star Wars sequels were panned for repe...

Re: Top Gun Maverick

I thought it was pants. A virtual remake, ending nicked off Star Wars and an advert for yachts in the middle.

Apparently he told the Sky team earlier in the week that the race wouldn’t be red flagged in those conditions. Why would he comment at all? Give yourself all options. However, the safety car was entirely consistent with every other race, a red flag and the chance for LH to change tyres would have ha...
