I watched May's speech this morning. Wouldn't have been out of place coming out of Corbyn. She condemned the current state of the UK (housing, chief execs pay, lack of collection of taxes, etc etc). Hang on, you've been part of creating that for 6 years? So it all sounded very positive until she also mentioned talking to "ordinary people". Why didn't she say "people across the country"? She might as well have said "little people", "hoi polloi" or dareIsay "plebs". And yes, she actually talked of "bringing rich and poor people" together. That's the Tory problem. You can be anything you want in a free market economy, as long as you know your place. Anyway, I think this has all been an almighty show stitch-up. There's been a stop Gove element in the party. So the Brexiteers in large part vote for Leadsom, on the basis she won't hack it and do what she's done. After all, May was first out of the blocks to say no general election - thus keeping Tory jobs for Tory MPS and delaying Article 50 keeping Tory jobs for Tory MEPs. May gets a coronation, she's essentially a remainer and it's politics as usual, and the hang with the referendum vote. Establishment says the people who voted to leave didn't say what kind of leave they wanted. So eventually we're likely to get staying in the single market, with temporary opt outs on free movement (as was on offer to Cameron) and out of the political side altogether. "We must look after the people who didn't vote to leave" - yep, the hang with you "ordinary people". Business as usual.

Most uninspiring and uninspired team wins. France brought no pace and were punished for some inexcusable misses. I think fondly back on the pace, grit and determination shown by some of the teams who could have made that a great final. Ah well, that's football...

Now founding member and drummer Danny Smythe has died aged 67. http://ultimateclassicrock.com/danny-smythe-box-tops-dies/ It's not so much I don't know what search you performed to locate the Chilton post ('box tops' perhaps), but rather.... WHY? Why did u feel the need to tie these posts 6 years apart together? Smh It's ok I still love you Y-Dub. SC Like The Reaper, I'm putting the band back together....

So we are allowed to have names on other people's lists in this one? Or does each 50 have to have unique names to that player?

Doesn't seem like the points for Aherne have been added. Just sayin'. Don't think they are up yet for the Theme Teams, but I've definitely got my points added for her in the main scoreboard.
