So, as a self employed business owner who handles my own hours and payroll, I can just cut my hourly rate for 40hrs and then add a load of overtime? The business pays the same amount and I pay less tax? Really don’t think the Reformorons have thought this though 🙄

@VicariousVillan @JayMBurton @UtdMaI After h2h points, it goes to h2h away goals. Spurs would stay up as they beat West Ham 3-0 away in September. In the January fixture, West Ham beat spurs 2-1 away. If they did have a tie after away goals, then there would have to be a relegation playoff fixture.

@JayMBurton @UtdMaI They actually only need 12 goals as they'd stay up on goals scored unless of course spurs drew 8-8 lol then I've no idea what happens in that situation as H2H is 1-1 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Can someone explain this? If Spurs draw tomorrow and West Ham win, they’ll finish on the same points. Since both won one H2H game each, who stays in the Premier League then?

@UtdMaI The first tie-breaker is goal difference. If Spurs draw, and West Ham win 12-0 or better (never happened in the Premier League), then West Ham stay up, Spurs relegated. If Spurs draw, and West Ham win by anything up to 11 goals, Spurs stay up, West Ham relegated.

Ahead of the play-offs this weekend, there remains just 5 of the 92 league teams who haven't played at the *new* Wembley since it opened in 2007: Accrington Barnet Blackburn Colchester Ipswich Accrington are the only team in the 92 to have never played at Wembley old or new.

@smalltounboy @theiaincameron Apparently the longest theoretical sight line in the British Isles, is from Merrick in Dumfries & Galloway, to Snowdon, 144 miles/232km. Ben Nevis has hilly terrain to the south that blocks most views of distant peaks. In theory Knocklayd in Co. Antrim is visible at 123mi/198km

The longest line of sight ever captured in the world was between the mountains Karagöl in Turkey and Shkhara on the Georgia-Russia border, 15th December 2024. At a distance of 493 km (306.4 miles), it’s the equivalent of seeing Ben Nevis from the hills of central Wales!

@GBPolitcs Surely the one thing guaranteed to increase costs now is to change the specifications of a project whilst it's already well under construction?

@TouchlineX An Arsenal-v-Burnley draw would have been better for Man City though - as a Man City win vs Bournemouth would put Man City level on points and at least 2 ahead on GD & 8 ahead on GF, meaning if City win their final game 1-0, then Arsenal would have to win at least 4-0

🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: Arsenal winning with just 1-0 might be GOOD news for Manchester City! If Manchester City WIN vs Bournemouth, they will head into the final match-day with a better goal difference than Arsenal. This would mean that Arsenal can NOT afford to draw the last game!

@GrahamDee1968 @BBCSport Since both scores have happened before in the Premier League - then "almost certain" is exactly the right description. You can't say they are "certain" to stay up if there is a scoreline possible when they wouldn't!

Typical #bbcfootball - "A draw is almost certain to be enough for Spurs, due to their vastly superior goal difference." [ "almost" 🤦‍♂️ ] West Ham....5 Leeds......0. Tottenham...0 Everton...8. There's no "almost" about it @BBCSport !!!!!!!!

Defeat for @WestHam means @SpursOfficial can secure Premier League safety with a victory against Chelsea on Tuesday 👊 How it currently stands 👇

@DibbsTux @premierleague @WestHam @SpursOfficial OK, but it's still technically possible for Tottenham to lose 7-0, and West Ham to win 6-0 in the final game, and then they'll be level on goal difference, with West Ham ahead on goals-for, therefore staying up. Only a win makes Tottenham mathematically safe before the final day

@AmIRightSir Makes sense after an election where so many seats changed hands: over 50% of sitting MPs have only served since 2024. Only 9.5% of current MPs pre-date the Con-LD coalition in 2010 and 28% were in parliament for the Brexit vote (compared to 22% & 67% respectively pre-election)

The last by-election caused by the death of a serving MP was that in Rochdale, following Tony Lloyd's death in Jan 2024 - the period since then is now the longest in modern times (possibly ever) during which no serving MP has died

Edit: missed out the "rest of the world" televote, which brings an extra set of 58 points available, so 312 rather than 254

With 2 countries left to declare, there are still, I think, 376 points remaining, so one of the two remaining countries will overtake Israel #Eurovision2026

@wooshy90 Apparently there's a "rest of the world" televote, but no jury. So an extra 58 points from televote.

@KateWilton1 It's MPs leaking info to the lobby journalists, on condition that their names aren't revealed. "A source close to xyz" probably means an MP who works as an aide or in the same department as xyz Sometimes it's the minister themselves, getting a junior MP to leak to get a story out

When reporters say ‘I’m told’ who told them? Because unless they provide names, it’s nothing more than gossip. When did reporters stop reporting the news and decide to make their own news?
