@TeamUSAWatch @MOON_WALKER6 That’s simply not true.
Amy ran 11:00s in the European Champs final.
Shelly-Ann FP and Sha’Carri each clocked 11:00 in Tokyo to qualify for the final and a time of 11:02 qualified for the 2025 World Champs final.
Times of 11:05 and 11:07 made the final at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

@rorysutherland Yup. I have. Enjoyed reading it.

Incredible run from 20YO Ja'Kobe Tharp to break the World Record with 12.75 in the Men's 110M hurdles heats at the NCAA's in Eugene. Great 📸coverage from Isaac Wasserman via @GettySport

@rodtheplodNo9 @ixi1382 @ReformUkWear @CllrDanCowie @CllrChrisEynon @CieraHudspith Pretty sure Seb Coe’s mother was Indian too. None used the flag to create division.

@andreajenkyns @reformparty_uk Sunshine don’t travel up the Straits of Hormuz.
Do you find it easy to be on the wrong side of history so frequently?

@LeeHurstComic @Nathan8hpp How’s has that worked out since Gideon Osbourne reduced the higher rate of income tax from 50p to 45p in 2012 ? You know the change that gave £42k more a year to anyone earning £1m+ annually, whilst closing libraries & police stations.

@JackoRugby Inevitable sad end of a process started 25ish years ago. Have written my own post.

@neilfissler All sport needs more matches that mean more. I’m not sure a 12-14 team PREM creates that any more than scrapping relegation does.

@SamRobertsComms Was inevitable IMHO 😞
Have written my own post.

I wonder if this will prove to be the transformative change it’s hoped for.

[Neil Loft @neil_loft]

The official announcement to abandon promotion & relegation at the top of club rugby marks an inevitable end of a process that started 25 years ago. At that time the top two tiers of  24 clubs in Allied Dunbar 1 & 2(?) with shared central sponsorship & commercial revenue 🧵

[Neil Loft @neil_loft]

Every sport needs matches that mean more. It’s the excitement which brings fans to grounds and viewers to screens and creates the wealth. Having no promotion ( however unlikely that was ) to aim for and no relegation to fight against does not create matches that mean more.

Imagine being the Man Utd sponsorship team, looking to secure global partnerships with this clown at the pinnacle of the club. I imagine Ratcliffe will be issuing an apology soon.

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

Offensive and wrong.

Britain is a proud, tolerant and diverse country.

Jim Ratcliffe should apologise.

@SuellaBraverman Are you going to deport the Post war baby boomers now turning 70 who, naturally require more healthcare ?

@DRoj @_AlexBywater Always the same articles written after a couple of 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 wins in Argentina during a Lions tour. Players perform & deservedly get praised. Anyone remember what happened to the mainly 2nd string England team that went to Aus / Nz in ‘98 ?
