But don't let poole provide the coin as it will be a special double headed one Or as a special measure name the 2018 triple champions the 2022 champions UTC There is NO NEED to sort out the League Winners There IS a need to sort out or abandon the Play Off fiasco before 31 October otherwise the winners of that can't be declared. The League Table doesn't lie CHAMPIONS - Leicester RUNNERS UP - Glasgow 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think BBC get their forecast from the Met Office but I believe it is slightly delayed. I think you will find the BBC get their forecasts from a firm in New Zealand! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met Office definitely more accurate but personally I wouldn't be taking too much notice of any forecasts four or five days ahead, very likely they will change more than once by Thurs/Fri. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind his transgressions, it's strong, charismatic leadership that's needed. Good one. Short and topical. Made me smile. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
