Initial thoughts on the 2,000 Guineas - great win for George Boughey and the family of the late Sheikh Mohammed Obaid. He is clearly a cut above his generation at this stage but whether this Classic crop are up there with the best is TBC.
Just heard two massive bangs in Dubai, with friends confirming they heard them too. Friends in Abu Dhabi also hearing similar. UK government advising stay in place, so one can only hope you've been lucky enough to be at a pub.
I'm all for giving people time in football. More than is typical. But how can United rely on Amorim. The guy shies away, hides his head, looks like a defeated man. Nobody can lift themselves as a player with a manager who shirks responsibility.
@quevega It's an open goal for him to say all the right things. Instead he talks how hard it's been and how he wants to ride good horses. He comes across badly and, given he is a star of the sport, I can only assume advised poorly.
Fair play to MC for getting the interview. As for OM, I can't think of a less contrite interview in so long. I can't imagine Oisin's agents have advised him to slag off media and be unremorseful about the girl involved. Will save under 'how not to answer a crisis media interview'
@SunderlanDave@jamesaknight Right, but this isn't his first offence. Drugs in France, lengthy ban in UK for breaking covid protocols and being over the limit on race days. And now this. I'm not demonizing him, I'm saying he's human. But "we all make mistakes" isn't going to cut it. He needs support.
