    I think they should eat someone else's breakfast.

    aka poach the two Scottish clubs off the other league and reduce the numbe rof English pro clubs to 8 and just let others feed into it.

    10 club league and have the rest as feeder academies.

    the issue is that the clubs are fighting for each others players and other countries players so a 1mil salary for one player is ineffect and ridiculous

    Ireland top earners are lions, on half that. sexton and furlong. their clubs cannot poach players so it's Ireland out out to France and end of international career.

    are they sustainable? no probably not and dependant on TV as well.

    but they are more unsustainable that what's going on here.

    It's about time RU took some proper steps towards improving.

    I think banning contact between the hands and the ball would be a good first step. Making the ball round would be a good second step.

    Its like driving over coronation street there. very bumpy and **** surface around a terrible area and a pointless race. The cars that are stiff to get downforce was are ****ed there. The red bull have been designed form the top down for stability and softer suspension that just hunkers down under speed. It pissed through as expected.

    Djokovic wins the French open in straight sets and proves that he has run out of competition.

    Federer old and gone, Nadal and Murray broken beyond repair and the Youth are pants in comparison.

    question:

    do you think that mcgregor will be charged with assault over the giant chicken thing at the nba

    or

    was it all fake.

    it was clearly a set up bit of fun but the coked up mcgregor went for it too hard and then pounded the minimum wage pleb in the suit with a fist on the ground.

    if the guy is in hospital "really" then how could.mcgregor avoid charges.

    and does anyone actually give a ****.

    yep Marder in the Tour of Switzerland when he crashed on a descent.

    The TdF is both the best known bike race and the worlds longest tourism advert .<laugh>
