@JeffStelling @beewestwood @PaulMerse Thanks for the great show in Peterborough tonight. Great to meet you all & thanks for the joy you've brought to millions across the years.

@rachelburden @RishiSunak @BBCBreakfast @RogerJ_01 Why would I trust Rishi Sunak will my child? My child is not Rishi Sunak's play thing. Tories all about small government & survival of the fittest, but think they have the right to tell my child what to do. Desperate people with ever more desperate ideas.

@Tigersresults @Telford_Tigers @GoPhantoms Was a goal though.

@AndrewDay111 Glad you got them in the right order there Andrew. The minor trophy right at the bottom 🤣

@rachelburden @bbc5live @BBCSounds Any chance of a shout out on sport for Peterborough Phantoms winning the NIHL National Play Off Championships tonight. And for back to back wins for Team GB in there World Cup warm ups vs Poland over the weekend. (3-1 Sat & 2-1 on Sun after penalty shots). Ice Hockey btw. Thanks!

[Alan Downie @AlanDownie2]

@AndrewDay111 Andrew, thanks for all your updates this weekend & throughout the season.

@coatestd011 What, you mean so you can lose to them?

[Alan Downie @AlanDownie2]

@mcilroy_4 Other thing I've seen in the Metaligaen is automatic 90 second review period for a coach to challenge any goal scored against his/her team (even the most obvious goal) but you still need a video to look at, at the end of it.

[Alan Downie @AlanDownie2]

@mcilroy_4 I've also seen a video of the same footage that still comes from, but the video has the posters name on it, so I'm not posting that. In that video, it looks in. But I agree, there needs to be a more definitive way for our sport.

[Alan Downie @AlanDownie2]

@mcilroy_4 Don't disagree. Or take the lamp out of it & just have the GJ count the shots. Thankless task really. And too much for volunteers especially at finals weekend. I've no idea who the GJs are this weekend. But may they could appoint refs not appointed to the games to do it?

[Alan Downie @AlanDownie2]

@AndrewDay111 Despite what everyone is saying, looks like your judgement was right!!

[Alan Downie @AlanDownie2]

@AndrewDay111

[Alan Downie @AlanDownie2]

@mcilroy_4 I saw the video & from that could no way tell if it was in or not - only the GJ, players & officials who were close enough could have told. But then in this photo, it looks in. GJ will be able to see that & lit the lamp. Agree, video review needed for definitive answers.

@AndrewDay111 Who is Mr Ferguson?

[Alan Downie @AlanDownie2]

@AndrewDay111 Great to see Alice there. One of the best linos in the league for many seasons.

@GusFairlie22 @GilesGraeme Buckie had over 1000 on Saturday, and, recently took 700 away supporters to the Aberdeenshire Cup final. EK (nothing against them) 2 sided ground, 700 capacity.

@SnookerLoopy_ Why don't we use the 8k seat Arena that's already there.
