Paulo Fonseca will not be the next Tottenham manager after talks broke down over finances, reports
@DiMarzio
.
Next on Spurs’ shortlist is reportedly Gennaro Gattuso, who left Fiorentina today after managing the club for 22 days.

Gattuso quitting isn't anything to do with Spurs, they wouldn't let him sign Jorge Mendes players.
They need to change it, as again people will think if I click this button I am definitely cancelling my appointment, when you aren't....you are clicking to effectively say you are interested in doing so, can I see what else is available, before I proceed.
Has Poots turned out to be a secret Papist or something?
Senior DUP source has just told me he expects DUP party officers will inform Edwin Poots today they have no confidence in him as leader of the party.

Of Donald Trump's three Supreme Court appointees, only one - Neil Gorsuch - voted to give Texas standing and dismantle the entirety of Obamacare.
One of the big arguments Democrats made against Amy Coney Barrett during her confirmation was that the future of Obamacare hung in the balance - that she would be the fifth vote to strike it down. Their fears turned out to be ... unfounded

I have a very senior contact - and he tells me everyone is now having to watch FFP very, very closely.
Big clubs have generally been comfortably within the numbers for the last few years - but post Covid things have changed. Whilst some changes have been made to the FFP rules to allow for Covid, the bottom line is that everyone is now much closer to the limits.
Every decision everyone takes has now got to be weighed up very carefully against FFP constraints.

But I also wonder whether as vaccination increases -> higher % of cases are asymptomatic -> we are missing more cases in the dashboard numbers. Because if you're asymptomatic... you're probably less likely to go and get tested?
It will be fine- really it will be- but we're still in the edges of the woods.
I loved boarding school. But I was Sixth Form. And it was mixed!
Result!
I'm mean no real health management experience so obviously no.1 on their list.

Boris, SKS, SAGE and the public were right.
PB was wrong.

I read the Blyton stuff younger (I started reading them independently aged around 3-4) - it's vocab is easier and the plot lines simple, and it uses only really very direct slapstick. I was a teenager myself, with a younger brother before I really got the humour in "Robert", William Brown's older brother for instance.
I think Blyton was very good for getting me into reading, and developing my reading abilities (I figured out for myself what lashings of ginger beer might be!). As an adult, it's dire, but she wasn't writing for adults.
The genius of CS Lewis, Ransome, Crompton et-al is that they wrote books which are enjoyable for both kids and adults. They have well drawn characters, who are developed through the books (less so with William, those books are more a series of clever vignettes). Blyton suffers terribly from very wooden characters. Interestingly, Pigeon Post was easily my favourite of the Ransome novels, although that might be because I was a rather like "Dick" (the geeky scientific lad), and he is very much one of the book's heroes.
As for the fact that all of them are to some extent rather un-PC - so what. Far more important to develop a love of reading, and an ability to use one's imagination (which is a lot of what reading is) than worrying about the odd rather 1950s attitude being on display.
Too busy fighting the woke in the studios of GBTV?
1) It is a safe Tory seat, in the past you really don't have to work to get a Tory elected here
2) Activists went oop North for B&S.
I keep hearing the thumping for the tories would shake them up....shake them up to do what?
Be even greener than they are? be even more cautious than they are? extend restrictions even longer than they are?
because that is what labour and the lib dems are offering. Am I missing something?
Very glad the PM isn’t listening to pb’s armchair epidemidiots
Labour would have had the same problems in seats like Hartlepool.
I have to admit the temptation to bank profits got the better of me.
For which, again, thanks.

33.7%. Little change from yesterday. Potentially importantly, though, no further fall. Might be slightly distorted by the big artificial jump in Scotland. Tomorrow's print is the key one.
Admittedly, you are in love with Boris, so competence is not importance to you.

New NHS admissions data by trust has just landed.
A week ago admissions in Bolton were falling, but since then they've risen very sharply. Admissions also rising fast in Salford, but falling in a few other parts of Manchester.
General caution and realism needs to be exercised while we see the situation develop over the next few weeks.
Even if we can have Stage 4 on 19 July - which we all hope for - people need to understand that it is not the end and that some measures eg masks on public transport will need to remain for some time.
It is yet to receive a response

Either that or they have disappeared to pant-shit in privacy and silence.
(1) Mass panic at CCHQ and amongst Tory MPs more broadly, and a big overreaction
(2) Lots of tediously predictable takes (possibly for years) about the "Blue Wall" in the South
Oh and (3) a bit of crowing by those on here who were bullish about the Lib Dems chances, but that'd be fair enough.
Maybe by around 10%?

The Greens need to throw everything at these byelections if they want up supplant the LibDems and become the "third choice".
It'll be a check the phone in the middle of the night when I go for a pee job.
And... 70K + tests by 17th June (today)
