A bit disappointed with the lad throwing rocks at Farage, not that he was throwing rocks but being from Barnsley with a strong cricket background he really should have better aim

Not really Town O'Clock news but news of why Amazon are not more efficient at delivering anything than the Post Office.

I ordered an item Monday morning, OK, not expecting delivery in Wolvo until today.

Here's their delivery tracking info ....

Monday, 24 June

Stone, GB (note this)

Wednesday, 26 June

Package departed an Amazon facility
B98 9AY, Redditch, United Kingdom GB

5:18 AM - Package arrived at the final delivery station

Now I'm no logistics expert, and it will be delivered this evening, but Stone was only a 15 minute drive up the A34 from Stoke the last time I did it. It's also only 30-40 mins drive from Wolverhampton, but I wasn't paying extra for same day delivery. Not that I could.

Emile Smith Rowe gone to Fulham for reported £34m. If he was so highly valued by Arsenil, why tf didn't Arteta play him more often?

Just spotted this one from two days ago.

Juninho Bacuna [Birmingham - Al-Wehda] Undisclosed - though apparently Hannover were also after him.

I know we've not forgotten about the plight of Ukraine, but just in case we've forgotten about the fate of our Ukraine football teams, I've compiled a brief resume of the 2023-24 season.

My team, Chornomerets Odesa, finished in mid-table obscurity once again, 4 points above the relegation play-offs. They had a decent Cup run, falling to the eventual winners, Shakhtar Donetz in the Semi-final. SD also won the League by 2 points from Dynamo Kyiv.

Rukh Lviv finished a respectable 6th with Oleksandriya in 8th. Sadly 5th placed Dnipro-1 have withdrawn from the 2024-25 season, owing to owing too much money.

Hopefully I've covered all our chosen teams.
