Sooky

Stupid little errors really cost us that game.

Just noticed that our first 4 games are all at 14:15 on Saturday. Only difference is the England game, the very last game of the tournament. As someone who works until 3pm, that is incredibly frustrating.

Can definitely see Wales somehow scoring from this and getting a bonus point and me being a seething mess.

“OH NO!”

The last two Welsh try’s have been absolute gifts.

James, Harry and John would be the ideal final three, I reckon.

Not entirely sure why but the “I mean, what’s more classy than a chestnut? I’ve no idea” line was hilarious.

Looking forward to this!

Nick singing more because he thinks the public love him is a new level of cringe. Edit: he’s somehow topped it by being a mad conspiracy theorist...

I was always under the impression the EU were happy to offer the UK a Norway or Canada deal? But the government wouldn’t accept Norway due to free movement and Canada due to the border issues? Though I fully admit that Norway would be difficult to sell to the public. It gets the UK out of the CFP/CAP and ends ECJ jurisdiction, but the government have fully (and, in my opinion, wrongly) committed to ending free movement.

Quite a significant amendment by Dominic Grieve being voted on later. If the government don’t pass the Withdrawal Agreement first time of asking, Parliament can amend it the second time - which may well vote to force the government into a Norway type deal as it’s probably the only scenario that would command a majority in the Commons. An amendment for an amendment. What fun!

Am I correct in thinking that we wouldn’t have actually been in this group if Belgium didn’t lose hosting rights? As themselves and Russia would both host. So we’d have moved to the next group and had Italy, Bosnia, Greece, Armenia and Liechtenstein?

I can see Kazakhstan away being the final game where we need a result and, naturally, don’t get one...

Also, this whole process is too complicated for me. If us and England both qualified, we’re guaranteed to be in the same group? And the same with the other 5 pairings?

Draw goes top to bottom seems according to BBC.
