I mentioned Jess Barnes losing her assistance dog to cancer a few weeks ago. Unfortunately there's massive shortfall between the insurance payout and the actual bill and a just giving page has been set up. [Link]

Apparently the shortfall is much bigger than the origianal text suggests.

Dust your boots down, guys - this is your chance to play on the hallowed turf of Plough Lane. The WAWF Cup takes place on May 31 and we are looking for fans to line up to play along side the likes of Jon Main and Mickey Haswell (more TBC), in teams managed by Mark Robinson and Terry Brown. Full use of stadium/changing rooms etc. Hampshire referee etc. West Stand open for fans, Phoenix open for thirsty fans/players. Photos of the day and probably a few bits thrown in tbc too. And if you can't play, why not be an assistant manager or a mascot for the day... All proceeds to the playing budget, too. [Link]

Alan - we know the DTB read here but almost never reply so we're not that different from Discord really!

and I'm suree the large majority of Discord refugees would be welcomed if they stick by the don't be a dick rule
Not sure if this is Andy Roberts but I see that the decision to kill off Discord is going ahead. Putting aside the dreadfulness of the platform, it seems that the Membership have no Exclusive area to engage with the DTB, even if, in my view the engagement failed to be two-way in the most part.

Suspensions, expulsions resignations and defections.
Is it the delta wings that make Vulcans seem much more exciting than Victors or Valiants? Are there any of the latter two still in existence?

Trigg - also, Guehi becomes only the 4th player to win the FA Cup with different teams in consecutive seasons, with the others being Olivier Giroud (Arsenal and Chelsea), Brian Talbot (Ipswich and Arsenal), plus of course Arthur Kinniard, the first player to achieve the feat after winning with Wanderers in 1878 and Old Etonians the following year….

Every day is a learning day….
The best Chelsea defeat in a domestic cup final must surely be this one in which the keeper for the entire match was subbed off because the manager decided that Kepa would definitely save loads of penalties and win them the trophy - enjoy, and try not to spit your tea out… ☕️😂 [Link]

Ah it appears the answer might be just the one because of the “cup tied” rule change.

Wonder if it’s easy to find a list of players who, like Guehi, won the FA Cup the same season they’d been knocked out of it.

Well, that's nice of the Green party, 4 newly elected members in London have stepped down already, causing four by-elections, which is estimated to cost tax payers another £80,000.

I see the UK came last and Israel almost won Eurovision due to the viewers vote which is now open to people in countries not even in the contest. According to the New York Times the Israeli government has spent $1m on a campaign including ads on billboards in Times Square. Netanyahu urged supporters to vote 20 times in a post on Instagram.

Congrats to Bulgaria.
I went up the Vulcan taxi run at Southend airport tonight. It did two runs. First run it opened up the engines half way , then second time did the complete runway and lifted the nose twice. Incredible aircraft. Very well supported event. Hearing just working now.

Vulcan ultra time
Postman, I spent quite a lot of time at Scampton so I am very familiar with the Vulcan. My uncle was was on standby for when they had problems with the weapons they carried so his accommodation was pretty much at the end of the runway so we were pretty close to the bombers both day and night. Amazing aircraft to see close up

Ah just read about the Maldivian guy who has died in a body-recovery attempt. Not worth the risk imo. Nothing to see in the Maldives below 30m unless it’s a wreck. I understand the addiction that cave diving can bring but self discipline is critical in not allowing yourself to do what you know you shouldn’t do even though you know that you *can* do it.

Best rule of cave diving is that any diver can abort the dive at any point and nobody gets to ask them why.

The 24hr Nürburgring has been interesting, so far, if you're into that stuff. A good alternative to most of what else is being served up today and tomorrow at any rate.

Given what I wrote earlier about Salford having their colours and badge changed, it looks like from next season they will be reverting back to the orange and black they used to wear before the Class of 92 took over [Link] and they are changing their badge again [Link]

Haven’t seen anything about retrieval of bodies but the incident is interesting as I always understood it to be Maldivian law that 30m was the maximum permitted depth and the reports state that they were exploring caves around 40m-50m. That in itself doesn’t make it particularly dangerous if you’re used to that sort of depth and I don’t know what cause if any has been attributed to the deaths. Proper cave diving is incredibly safe because of the rules involved in doing it. So until any more detail comes out I can’t really pass comment.
