Former footballer and sports commentator Andy Townsend, has called out a walker for having a shit in his local pub toilet and then leaving without buying a drink. He鈥檚 right. Do you agree?

The WK dismissal bar graph for Saltburn CC shows their WK took 8 catches in one match, international record is 7. One way to look at it is "they cheated 8 times". I look at it and say, "2 incompetent umps possibly gave 8 players wrongly out". Why are the umps exempt from blame?

Replying to @AndyMitten
It's a fair request. By my calculations, over the past five years, taking Saturday 3pm Feb-Apr attendances, the difference is about 15%. The average is 2733 on Six Nations days and 3166 on non-Six Nations days (up to 3215 if you take out Easter - egg chasers indeed!)

Kingstonian move to Ashford!!! and the new Kingston FC I remain a fan of Kingstonian but think the move to Ashford is terminal for the club. meanwhile a new Kingston based football club has been formed. @KingstonianFC @Kingstonfc2026

28) The Night Before. Some really good laughs in this. Strong soundtrack too. Not for the family, but it's not all about the kids. 6/10.

36) Nativity. I put off watching this. It's silly, and not perfect with the Hollywood stuff. I just had a really nice time watching it. Sparkle and shine! 6/10.

By popular demand we are back for 2025! Baker's Christmas Movies reviews. A reminder of the league table from 2024. Relegated movies won't be seen in this term. Keen to hear recommendations. We start on Thursday 4th December.

26) Jack Frost. My first watch, and whilst an interesting concept. I'm not sure I really felt the magic. Special effects now feel dated. 5/10.

27) Dashing Through The Snow. A US Marshall, a pregnant fugitive, a bounty hunter and a hitman Santa with his henchman of elves. The worst thing I've seen in my life and I watch Kingstonian. 1/10.
