England have a 1-0 lead against Argentina in the World Cup semi-final and were largely in control of the tactical battle. With 30 minutes remaining, the head coach of England who is paid £5 million a year and entrusted with the task of delivering results against elite international opposition, chose to introduce a raft of defensive substitutes and parked the bus. England dropped deep, inviting sustained pressure, severing their own midfield supply lines and sacrificing the pace and threat of their counter-attacks. In the process, they handed Lionel Messi repeated licence to attack at England’s defence. A disastrous decision. It was arguably one of the most self-defeating tactical decisions in the history of the England national team.
This weekend, @SkySports shared a truly powerful story about the connection between football and memory.
Lifelong @Official_BRFC fan Jim, who lives with Vascular Dementia, and his wife Sylvia showed how football can spark memories and create moments that last a lifetime.

Bristol Rovers is saddened to hear of the death of Roy Dolling, who served in many capacities during a 38-year association with the Club.
Everyone at Bristol Rovers sends their condolences to Roy's loved ones at this sad time.
This is vandalism - pure eco vandalism.
Farmers lives are being destroyed for this junk. Future land fill. Imported. Plastic wrapped.
This needs to be stopped. And fast
Weird British-leftists are celebrating Mark Carney taking over as Prime Minister in Canada.
Conveniently, they forget to mention he has:
- no seat in parliament
- never held office
- never even stood for election
Why do they love unelected bureaucrats so much?
