The England leadership surviving the Ashes

@BoothCricket Touche 👌😂

@connellm Could do with a few of those myself...

EXCLUSIVE 🏏 The transit of English cricket's new batch of Dukes balls has been disrupted by the war in the Middle East. Only half the usual amount are expected to be available at the start of the season. ECB admit: "It's been a wake-up call." dailymail.co.uk/sport/cricket/…

Lower than Bradman.

@mustbemarisa87 The Waddle trade I can live with but if Achane goes I’m out!! 😬

They really took the Waddle out of Miami… I’m not okay.

@racinglee1 @oddschecker Banging in naps poolside from the sun lounger?! 😂

🥇MACKLIN bursts clear and wins readily - good ride! Nap @oddschecker

@AtTheRaces A trip over the Irish Sea might be more beneficial in that elusive search for soft ground

"He's easy cantering at the moment!" Great to hear Wendigo could still make Aintree after falling at the last in the Brown Advisory...

@NJ_Timothy @SimonDanczuk This is the legacy of your government Nick

Too many are too polite to say this. But mass ritual prayer in public places is an act of domination. The adhan - which declares there is no god but allah and Muhammad is his messenger - is, when called in a public place, a declaration of domination. Perform these rituals in mosques if you wish. But they are not welcome in our public places and shared institutions. And given their explicit repudiation of Christianity they certainly do not belong in our churches and cathedrals. I am not suggesting everybody at Trafalgar Square last night is an Islamist. But the domination of public places is straight from the Islamist playbook. Trafalgar Square belongs to all of us. It is a national memorial to our independence and our salvation. Last night was not like a televised football match or a St Patrick’s Day celebration. It was an act of domination and therefore division. It shouldn’t happen again.

Two phone calls, lasting a minute each. Liam Livingstone says that is the sum total of his contact with England's management since his most recent international appearance 12 months ago. Interview @ESPNcricinfo espncricinfo.com/story/liam-liv…

@offthebridle45 💯👌

What a load of dogshit. Ireland won the big Grade 1s and UK were helped out by the handicapper (and Skeltons being allowed to cheat)

@CarlF83 @DamonUnofficial Correct! 😂

@DamonUnofficial Doesn't have to live here though does he? Shithole. Just stick to the music bud

Damon: "I think I wanted to see Bradford. I wanted to do something distinctively multicultural in this city because, yet again, we find ourselves in a situation where there is a tendency to overgeneralise and pigeonhole people in a negative way, happening in our culture…" 1/2

Another Cheltenham festival done and dusted and it’s been a real week of highs and lows. A disaster of a punting day on Tuesday, the pride of seeing Wendigo race on Wednesday and the panic of seeing him fall at the last, beautiful looking antepost slips end up in the bin on Thursday when SixMileBridge and Fact to File get pulled and finally things go my way on Friday with some lovely returns on Wilful, Gaelic Warrior, Johnny’s Jury and Barton Snow. Also think stewards should have awarded Hot Fuss the race in the last which would have been Caribbean cruise time!! 😂 Festival marred somewhat by shambolic starts, needless chavvy content on ITV and the horrendous aftermath of the Gold Cup with what happened to Envoi Allen. Racing can and must do better 🐎

🗣️ "Wonderful." Great stuff from @jamiesnowden following Johnny's Jury's Albert Bartlett triumph 👇🏻

@offthebridle45 Fair play mate. You always put up your fancies and don’t swiftly delete them when things don’t go your way. You have to enjoy the good days because you’ll get plenty of stinkers along the way in this game

The jealousy of some on here. I bet modest amounts and win modest amounts compared to a lot. Still get tons of abuse 😂

Huge for the stable 👏
