@Official_BRFC It’s working if watching with a browser. App is saying a video package is required even though I have one for the season. It was doing the same last week.

@1MichaelWillett I feel like Evans at least tried that in January. Unless anyone puts in a decent bid than I agree he should be given another chance pre season & early in the season before the window closes

One of the best day/nights of all time that was!

[UEFA EURO @UEFAEURO]

Ollie Watkins (90') ⚽️

@Alfiebiggs @BristolBomber It’s not very exciting football but it’s clearly the way you have to set up it you want any chance of getting out of this league

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

@AirlinePilotmax There were no alarms. Probably because the target was an oil tanker more than 30km offshore

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

@AirlinePilotmax I was hoping there would be and that was the reason why we haven’t had an alarm in more than three days now!

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

@Alfiebiggs Cheers. It’s not as bad as western media make it out to be but still praying everything goes back to normal soon!

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

@Alfiebiggs It’s taken him some time but we were at the point where no manager was going to get a tune out of the current squad. All his signings have helped improve us. Finishing the season strong will set us up perfectly for next season

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

@DougAMacgregor No they haven’t. Only when we get the phone alerts saying ‘the security threat is elevated’ should we stay indoors. Once the missiles have been intercepted the all clear is given and everyone can go about their daily business. Currently these alerts are coming once or twice a day

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

Then five minutes later the sirens go off again 🤦‍♂️

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

BREAKING: Iran’s interim leadership council has approved that neighbouring countries will no longer be attacked unless an attack on Iran originates from them, President Masoud Pezeshkian has said.

@TBrit90 Was hoping this was true until Qatar just got hit with one of the biggest (if not the biggest barrage) of missiles so far!

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

@heyitshehe @AirlinePilotmax Yeah quite a few just now

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

@cpaschyn Heard nothing either. Possible interceptions over the sea like the ones yesterday morning that we didn’t hear?

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

Yeah loud bangs of thunder is exactly what we need right now 😂

[Doha News @dohanews]

Skies over #Doha will be cloudy with a chance of thundery #rain and patchy dust in some areas, according to the #Qatar Meteorology Department. Temperatures will reach a high of 23°C and a low of 18°C. Northwesterly winds will be fresh to strong, reaching 10-20 knots inshore and 13-23 knots offshore, with stronger gusts at times.

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

@Alfiebiggs But apparently those of us who moved abroad only did it to avoid paying tax 😂

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

@cpaschyn Only some very low flying helicopters which woke us all up!

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

@cpaschyn They would have been detected and intercepted long before they reached land. I’m more amazed that they managed to get out of Iranian airspace undetected, or the fact that they still had any aircraft!

[Expat Ben @BenWilliams1985]

@WarMonitor3 Much quieter in Qatar today. Likely because jets are intercepting missiles/drones offshore. Less likely to see any damage from falling debris. Will be interesting to see if other countries who have suffered a lot of damage from debris are/or will follow a similar tactic?
