Ollie Robinson back in the England team for the first two tests against India and runs today against the tourists for Hameed, so I wonder if he might force his way in?

I think Hameed needs a run of games now. Id put him in for Sibley.

I thought the US were nigh on unbeatable in women’s football.
Is that a shock result or have the other nations caught up?

First defeat in forty four games apparently.

Can anyone work up any enthusiasm for these Olympic Games?

Here in Poland it’s like the Olympic Games don’t exist, except for Sushi being on offer in the local supermarket.

I don’t think we realise in UK how lucky we are with the diversity and availability of sports.

No, not yet, which is sad when I think back to Tokyo 1964, the first Olympics I took any interest in - I used to come running into to watch it as soon as this very memorable tune was played. Memories of Lyn "the leap" Davies, Mary Rand and Ann Packer.

Lynn used to be our basketball coach..occasionally..at Llanedyrn..Dennis Ellis the main man.
