It's a disgrace. Big six stopping all the smaller clubs making money and there not even in those rounds.
Awful.

Been a long time since I last walked out of Rhythm nation records with my wages spent on a Saturday afternoon. Heading up for the Barrow game from Cornwall and was just wondering does Doncaster have any Record (Vinyl) shops? Seems to be the only Town/City not to have one???  And if we don't have one, is there any others localish?

Is Owen still open?

Just googled Rhythm Nation,and to answer my own question it opened in 1993(!!!)and closed in 2009!

Rate the Ref / No foodbank collection tomorrow.
« Last post by Jimmydee on Today at 06:23:30 pm »
We won’t be doing our Saturday foodbank collection tomorrow because we’re concerned that we won’t be able to get sat at our usual seats in the south stand.
Thank all of the usual donors that have supported us throughout the season.
I’ve had more time to see and help behind the scenes at the foodbank and I’ve certainly seen how the donations have genuinely helped young families in crisis.
Fellow Rovers fans have helped in many different ways, from donating their anniversary gifts/money, Doncaster driving instructors association, people emptying their piggy banks as well as emptying their food cupboards and even current players and former players (Duggie) chucking money into the bucket and accepting the settling of VSC forum members bets. Thank you all.

''Rishi Sunak will today claim Britain is suffering from a “sicknote culture”, as he warns there is a risk of “over-medicalising” normal worries by diagnosing them as mental health conditions.

In a speech on how to reduce people being signed off sick from work, the prime minister will say the government is planning to trial getting “work and health professionals” to issue fit notes, shifting away from GPs carrying out this role.

Sunak will say he is concerned about the increase in long-term sickness since the pandemic, largely driven by mental health conditions with 2.8 million people now “economically inactive”

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2024/apr/19/sunak-to-cite-britains-sicknote-culture-in-bid-to-overhaul-fit-note-system

Oh the irony, when for 14 + years tory governments have only ever been economically active in a destructive sense.

I had reasonably high hopes for Sunak to be a decent, competent politician.

He's actually as big a Kitson as any of the worst of them, playing up to the prejudices of the few Kitsons who might still vote for them.

He’s Tory. If you had ‘high hopes’ for him (another non-elected Prime Minister) you have your finger on the wrong pulse.

Teresa May (I think it was) had it right over a decade ago.

She said the Tories always had a reputation for being hard. She said they were seen as bas**rds, but competent bas**rds. They were hard and heartless, but they got things done.

She said that they way things were going, they were going to end up being seen as incompetent bas**rds.  They are truly f**king useless at running the country. In fact they've given up on even trying. So they just amplify the heartless bas**rd bit to stop other heartless bas**rds from voting for Farage.

"Evasive" Boris Johnson has yet again broken ministerial rules after refusing to answer questions about his links to an investment firm.

In a blistering letter to the shamed former PM, a Parliamentary watchdog said he had breached strict Government appointment regulations. Tory peer Lord Pickles, who chairs the Advisory Committee on Business Appointments (ACOBA), said Mr Johnson has "refused to be open" about his relationship with hedge fund firm Merlyn Advisors

Travelling up from home in Cornwall just for the game, dodgy fire stick just doesn't cut it. Haven't looked forward to a home game like this in a long long, long time

Whereabouts in Cornwall are you living?
I'm a Yorkshire/Kernow mongrel with roots in Looe and a sister with an Alpaca farm in Rezare

We're up north end, up near Bude/Widemouth Bay area
Blimey, I thought it was all Man U supporters in the south west.
I lived in Cornwall 30 years all 3 sons born in Cornwall are Rovers mad, 2 are  now in Oz whilst the other is still in Newquay.
Nice to hear of a couple more down there.

Correct me if I'm wrong but as per the ministerial code shouldn't Rich-ie have announced this in Parliament rather than in a speech?
