Weather will be a big factor at this year's World Cup.
If a thunderstorm is detected within 8 miles of a stadium the game will be suspended (unless it's under cover) - everyone will cleared from the pitch and there'll be a mandatory countdown before it can restart ⚡
High temperatures will also be a factor. To help beat the heat, there will be a mandatory 3-minute hydration break in every half of every game for the first time ☀️
As ITV unveil there super-snazzy Brooklyn studio for the World Cup I do feel a bit for the BBC who will broadcasting games back in Salford.
The location will have cost ITV a fortune and the BBC can’t win… if they go then there is criticism every day about the cost and, if they don’t go, they get hammered for staying at home.
Must feel very distant at the moment though.
Ronnie O’Sullivan:
“If Mark Selby is struggling mentally and I’m struggling mentally and John Higgins is struggling mentally then the other 124 players will 1 million per cent be struggling.”
So delighted for this man been an amazing servant to both Leeds and recently Boro. And fuck this horrible bastard, not smiling now are you. 💙💛 #lufc#boro
Weird poetic justice of us having a EFL rule created because of us breaking a non-existent rule, that years later causes the expulsion of a team that previously stopped us winning at Wembley and getting promotion… is this, is this karma?
