Re: Emma Thompson has emigrated

If the likes of her kept their mouths shut it would have been more likely that we stayed in the EU. Nothing winds people up more than a luvvie telling them what they should do and how they should think

Re: The Running Thread

Anybody ever tried running shoes from Decathlon? My Hoka shoes are falling to bits but don't fancy a new pair of them. Need to get a load of gear from Decathlon anyway and have always been impressed by their general range of clothing for running and cycling.

Re: WR explore rugby specific guidelines for transsexuals

There is a video on BBC profiling a Welsh male to female rugby player. Of course the team mates are chuffed to have them in the team. But watching, I'd be livid if someone like that did a crash ball say into my partner. Somebody will get hurt. I think at professional level if I ran as hard as possib...

Fury would wipe the floor with pretty much any heavyweight from any era. Crikey. That’s some amazing bollocks right there. I'm standing by it. Heavyweights in the 50s were 5'10.
