@o_totoangel@1uca86@XtraLeicester@POF_POD@KieranMaguire Maybe. I think the reality is that he was never cut out for the role. It was thrust upon him after he watched his dad die in a terrible accident. He had to take it on - even though he probably knew he was never up to it. On a purely human level, you have to sympathise with him.
Golf tournaments, the premier league, the tennis hard court season starting in the USA.
If we are to get the nation’s children off their backsides, we have to inspire them.
You have to see it to want to be it.
Hi @andyburnham,
What can we do about top quality sport that the next generation is not exposed to because it’s on subscription TV?
Georgia Hunter Bell just won an excellent 800m at the commonwealths. English fast bowlers are charging in at Old Trafford in the hundred.
I love Jamie, but this was unacceptable, you can’t undermine the manager, you weren’t forced to go to the WC & you were paid to train every day anyway, fact that he could go to the board to get himself a holiday is just mental #LCFC
A must watch ⬇️
‘Leicester are a real mess’
‘They’re deep with macquarie bank. However Leicester have generated over £40m this summer’
‘My understanding is the owner is being stubborn and unrealistic with his valuation’ 😳

I seriously don’t understand how genuine Leicester fans would read through all of this and still defend KP, failing & overspending is one thing but the unprecedented level of financial mess is inexcusable, good for us we won’t be putting up with it for much longer #LCFC
Harborough Town have just signed Britt Assombalonga - former Watford and Forest striker - once valued at £15m. 232 championship appearances and 77
goals. Would have been a decent signing for #lcfc never mind in the national league. Pull your finger out Leicester
Hi @Olympics. You have a drugs cheat serving a 11 year doping ban as your poster girl.. maybe your comms team need to some clean sport education.
It’s embarrassing!
A man won £1.7 MILLION playing blackjack online at 1am. The casino called the next morning to congratulate him. Then called back two days later to say there was a software glitch and they were keeping the money. They offered him £60,000 to stay quiet and sign a document promising never to talk about it. He said no.
– Andrew Green was a 54 year old from a small village in Lincolnshire England.
– Just after midnight on January 26 2018 he opened the Betfred app and started playing a blackjack game called Frankie Dettori's Magic Seven.
– He played for five and a half hours straight.
– When he finally stopped the screen showed £1,722,500.24 in winnings.
– He called Betfred. They congratulated him. Told him to call back after 9:30am to arrange collection.
– He went out that night and celebrated with his family. Spent £2,500 on dinner. He was already a millionaire in his head.
– Monday morning he called back. They said the win was so large it needed to be sent to the game provider Playtech for verification. Standard procedure they said.
– Wednesday Betfred called again. Playtech had found a software glitch. The win was void and he would not be paid.
– Their offer was £60,000 but on one condition. He had to sign a non-disclosure agreement promising never to discuss what had happened.
– He said no.
– He sued and the case went to the High Court in London.
– The judge ruled Betfred's terms and conditions were not transparent and not fair. They could not rely on them to withhold payment.
– Three years after he won the money the court ordered Betfred to pay the full £1.7 MILLION plus interest.
– Standing outside the High Court he said "The last three years have felt like hell on earth. I think Betfred have treated me abysmally."
– Betfred apologised for the delay.
– They never explained how many other players hit the same glitch and quietly accepted the £60,000.
A man won £1.7 MILLION at 1am, spent £2,500 celebrating before the money arrived, then spent three years in court to collect what was already his.
