They should change their nickname from the Royals to the untouchables.

The Royal in question must be Prince Andrew.

Wowza, powerful stuff. Puts life into perspective. Puts our transfer business into perspective too. In terms of who we do or don’t get and the reasons behind that and the use of SM in our everyday lives.

Yes. Although they have followed it up with this which might not go down so well...

https://twitter.com/Official_BRFC/status/1687416878853963776?s=20

Shirts with readable braille are limited to a quantity of 250. These are a special edition of the shirt and will be priced slightly higher (£4) than the shirts without the readable braille.

Standard shirt £49
Special edition £53

It was mentioned a few times on the MDT, but possibly worth the discussion here. I want to say that as a hater of timewasting/gamesmanship, I'm fully behind the more disciplined way that referees have been instructed to clamp down. In theory, the way we look to play should benefit us as big ugly cloggers that stop us unfairly can now not easily slow the game down by blocking free kicks, or rolling the ball away etc. I'm also fully behind booking keepers that take too long. (not sure how long is too long to be honest) How many times in the past had we seen teams set up for 1/3 points and use the tactic of the keeper taking over a minute to retrieve the ball and kick it up the field.

I have to say, I do think some of the yellows that have been handed out have been quite harsh. Particularly for Crewe and FGR players. By the letter of the law Kemp should have been booked last night for tapping a ball off the field when he was caught offside, but for some reason the referee let it go. Once players have got used to not doing this (for some it seems like second nature) I believe we should see less games ruined by things like the antics of the Crewe side last season.
