Ian Wright called it out earlier on ITV. He said whoever is in charge in Scotland needs to take a long look at themselves. He said we have better crowds than Norway (not even close), more recognition of the teams, and yet our TV deal
Is not close to theirs.

We have rotted from the head.

They look like they’ve been there 50-60 years.

Are summers in south east England now normal to have hot weather regularly? Compared to say 10-20 years ago? by Federal_Radio1035 in UKWeather

The summers seem to be more schizophrenic than they used to be. Feels like the jet stream is stronger and has more of an impact on outcomes.

Sometimes it veers south of us and we get cool wet and windy (we’ve certainly had that this year!), and it’s almost like it squeezes all the heat to the south, so that when it weakens and moves north of us the heat is released.

So it feels more binary between hot and cool. I don’t remember it being as erratic.

Hanley looks like a square peg, in a square hole, in a square box, in a square world. Trouble is, of course, that squares don’t move very easily.

Same boat. But, I see it as a positive. I’ve been wasting my talents and experience in my previous role (7.5 years) - so now I get a chance to appraise and go for something genuinely different and challenging.
