South African born Franco Smith agrees to become Glasgow Warriors head coach but @TheRugbyPaper report compensation still to be agreed with Italian Rugby as as he has a year left on his contract. Is he worth it?Pretty underwhelming appointment IMO if it goes through.

@ROB_Robireland still underwhelming? #humblepie

@AndyBurke_ @greig_laidlaw Super work. Throughly enjoyed listening all week. Sets up tomorrow. #belive

Great to catch up with @greig_laidlaw in Paris ahead of the big showdown between 🇮🇪 and 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 tomorrow. He can still give a bloody good rallying cry when he wants to. Last preview pod ahead of the game out later this evening.

@HenryPryor @CapEconUK @LucianCook @AskNationwide @EYnews @richard_donnell Are these the same experts who predicted a 20% reduction as a result of Covid?

Some sober comments from actual experts on what might happen to house prices inc. @CapEconUK @LucianCook @AskNationwide @EYnews & @richard_donnell. #Spoiler - the consensus is a fall of about 10%. (£) thetimes.co.uk/article/uk-hou…

@CharlieFelix I called it. No surprises here.

@CharlieFelix I’ll call it now. Any ban will end in time for the 6N.

Quite significant: Owen Farrell is eligible for World Rugby ‘tackle school’ (coaching intervention programme) to reduce any sanction he gets by a week. That means he’d have to get a five-week ban – unlikely – to miss the Scotland game.

@NickyAACampbell If everyone had just 1% of his half glass full approach, the world would be in a much better place.

He lit up a stadium. He lit up a room. He lit up our studio. And - I’ll never forget our night in Cardiff on those rusty nails. (Whisky and Drambuie) although much of it I did forget - oh my Lord 😀🥃

@performchef @gloucesterrugby Super photo 👏

@gloucesterrugby in 🇦🇷 Great Tour with 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏉

@MarkPalmerST Shambles. Embarrassing. Is not just the hope that kills us….

Well that just about puts the tin lid on a thoroughly disappointing Six Nations. And we've not even got to Dublin yet. We always hear that success begins with a winning culture - not sure this says anything remotely positive about Scotland's

@premrugby @btsportrugby @FalconsRugby @gloucesterrugby Phew

BREAKING 📢 @FalconsRugby v @gloucesterrugby kick-off moved to 7pm ⏰ The #GallagherPrem R14 clash will still be live on @btsportrugby though 📺

Could two followers please copy and re-post this tweet? I'm trying to demonstrate that someone is always there, especially at this time of year. Call 0800 689 5652 (National Suicide Prevention Helpline UK). Just two. Any two. Copy, not retweet. Let’s all look out for each other🙏🏼

@bookingcom I have responded and shall look forward to your reply.

@HolmesAlexJ Hi Alex, we have sent you another DM.

The countdown to the holiday season is on!🎄 Whether sunbathing on the sand or hitting the snowy slopes, where will you celebrate the holidays this year? ❄️🏖️ Here’s one of our favorite destinations to set the mood…

@mariaelisarod @bookingcom The customer care received from booking.com has been awful. Well below my expectations from a company of this size.

@bookingcom @HolmesAlexJ Then what’s the purpose of booking if in the end you can’t do nothing? Then we all should bypass booking and go directly with the hotel, bet rates will be even lower without commission from hotel to booking. 😡

@bookingcom Thank you. I have replied. Your information is incorrect.

@HolmesAlexJ Hi there Alex, our apologies for the delayed response — we've replied to your DM.

@rachelburden This is unfair. I booked, no problem…. If you can’t get through, try again. Please stop being negative.

Book a booster

@bookingcom DM sent yesterday morning as requested, but nothing back yet. Still waiting…

@HolmesAlexJ They also need to refund you if they didn't honor the reservation. If you still need support, DM us your confirmation number, PIN code and name on the booking, we will see what happened, and we will assist you as soon as possible. 2/2 twitter.com/messages/compo…

@gloucesterrugby And to the other Gloucester players representing their nations.

🌹 Good luck, @J0nnyMay!
