Great news, all's well that ends well... for them and their families at least... Outstanding effort by all involved...

The fact that the club has stalled on any kind of comment at all does not bode well... They have not rushed out to back Conte which is hardly a ringing endorsement is it and they have allowed rumour and speculation to rear it's ugly head in every dark corner across the the whole of the summer so where does that leave us?? They said they would be making an announcement about Conte's future at the end of the season? have we rushed in too early as fans and stupidly assumed it would be this season?? Maybe they were talking about next season.. of course I jest It's possible that Conte has played a blinder saying if you want me out then you have to pay the whole whack and nothing less which is estimated to be around 9Mill if you believe what they are reporting and the club may have tried to bluff him out on a lower package and failed which means he will stay to see out his contract. It's also possible that this so called deal with Sarri which has been hanging around like a bad smell may have also been kicked into touch due to the compensation factor. The club could have been looking at around 14Mill just to change Managers ( if indeed that was always the plan ) and probably something they were hacking away at to bring down to as little as possible before pushing anything concrete through.. I am also curious where this would leave Sarri if Conte is indeed going to stay? Ancelotti's appointment seemed to trigger that Sarri was well on his way out and might have led us to believe that some deal had been struck already and that only the finer points needed ironing out but if Conte stays then what happens to Sarri?? Not that I should be overly concerned about him in particular but the whole will he/won't he saga has just left everyone shaking their heads... I understand that there was a little disharmony over training as well, with players reporting back on Saturday and Conte telling staff not to come back until Monday and of course all the players ( of which some have already voiced their opinions ) will not be keen on returning if Conte is still there which just throws another stink bomb in an already overcrowded lift... So you feel some moves are just destined to happen, mostly going out with very little in the way of inward transfers.. So unprofessional the way the club have handled things so far this season and does not invoke much confidence for the coming season..

They have been saying that every fucking week... It's all such a cluster fuck.. Stay or go, stick with or replace just make an announcement of some sort for gods sake and put the fans, the players and any potential recruits out of their misery will ya!!! What a bunch of Muppets...

I believe they are bringing out the weakest first and they have been flown or taken straight to hospital where they are being checked over for any infections and such like before they are being given the all clear.. The parents are just having to wait it out until they give the ok but must at least be relieved they are out and alive at this point..

Just catching up with the news now... Going well, Hopefully it will all be done by tomorrow..

Lets see how many they can get out today.. Going on yesterday this could take at least 3 or more days to complete..

I thought it was just about right... gets all the main characters in, explores them a bit without going into too much detail and the ending has set the tone now for whats to follow.. A crashing start and a sombre ending.. Such beautiful scenery! You cant help but think we all have a little cowboy in us somewhere... I don't get to ride a horse across such vast plains but I do get to ride a bike.. plenty of alone time if I want and able to travel great distances, It's the closest I will get so I will take it..

Just watched the first one.... Excellent!! Cheers for the heads up..

Conte is back at Cobham training with the players... Very much looking like he will be stopping on then..

I do hope them Leeds lot don't ruin Lewis Baker with that kick and rush football style they play...

Time to spare a thought for Saman Kunan who lost his life while doing this... A former Thai navy diver has died while taking part in efforts to rescue 12 boys and their football coach trapped in a flooded cave in Thailand. Petty Officer Saman Kunan lost consciousness on his way out of the Tham Luang cave complex, where he had been delivering air tanks. The death of Saman - a highly trained diver - on Thursday underscored the danger of moving from the chamber to mouth of the cave, and raised serious doubts about the safety of bringing the boys out through the cramped, flooded passageways. The diver died after losing consciousness in one of the passageways, said Passakorn Boonyaluck, deputy governor of the Chiang Rai region, where the cave is situated. "His job was to deliver oxygen. He did not have enough on his way back," Mr Passakorn said. He said that Saman's dive partner tried to revive him but could not, and his body was brought out of the cave. RIP...

They were reporting 6 out earlier now they are saying it's just the 4 and they will try again tomorrow for the rest..

Good race... Hamilton did well considering his early set back..

Tactics...

GOOOOOOO HAMILTON!!!!!!!!

That was a slick move...

Some might call it luck... others would call it justice

All the ex pit stop crews should open garages when they retire... You would be in and out with your car in about 5 minutes instead of the average 5 weeks we have now..

At least this race will give him something to fight for... Looks like his initial thoughts of damaging the car were unfounded...

Should have been 10 minutes...

10 second penalty dished out...

Well that was a shit start for Hamilton...

6 out now they are reporting...

Some interesting background on one of the divers there.. Mikko Paasi the Finnish Diver I totally love this statement... Class!! "Those who say it can't be done, shouldn't interrupt people doing it" Take a look at his instagram page... not jealous much!! https://www.instagram.com/mikkokohtaodivers/
