Khan has agreed to fight Canelo on May 7th and steps up from 147 to 155 for it. Can see him getting pulverised by one of the most Irish looking Mexican I have ever seen.

You're doing it wrong. Now I subscribe, but even when I watch a free one I never watch one with foreign commentary. But then I would not require perfect HD.

But Delia is still in charge and just after window shuts so seems a strange time to replace him?

Nothing even close. They were probably 1000/1 at the start of the season, and even that would have been far too low in most people's eyes.

Wasn't there some fellas bet slip doing the rounds at xmas for Leicester to be too at xmas at 2,500/1? Probably a fake but those odds wouldn't have been far off imo.

Well hold on a minute now! Nate Silver had Trump at ~1% through early Autumn but had him as favourite to win Iowa yesterday. That he penned a base covering post yesterday with commentary on four potential outcomes - one of which Hitch quoted this morning - is also kind of irrelevant. That's classic mainstream media fare - roll with the prevailing wisdom while covering as many eventualities as possible.
Adanthar on twoplustwo noted before Christmas that he felt Trump would lose Iowa to Cruz and was betting the house on it. He returned yesterday to reveal a bunch of links / tweets / etc from the past couple of months (particularly around new voter registration) upon which his bet had been based. Now that's what analysis is supposed to be - weighing up the entire context of a future event and making a weighted prediction based on research.
Nate Silver is just floating with the milieu at the moment. I have never been making any claims that I have a clue about this stuff - but I feel like I can differentiate those making real predictions from those covering bases with no real clue or wanting on the basis of political preference. Well, at least some of the time.

Looks like its bullshit. Andy Goldstein from Talksort tweeted this earlier:
You must be either out with rigger or talking to him.
GFY cunts.
Nah m8, I was drinking at the quiz but sans riggs. Just lolled at the thread there now that I'm back on as I think it's a 5-5 tie so that'll be a laugh tomorrow.
Got asked this guys name and who sings this song and had no clue for either
Bros - When Will I Be Famous (Official Video)Listen On Spotify: http://smarturl.it/BrosBest_SpotifyBuy On iTunes: http://smarturl.it/BrosBest_iTunesAmazon: h...
Aw that's gonna wreck my head. He's either Italian or French anyway but I'm thinking Italian. Really don't want to google it. I clicked the video so I know it's Bros. I know the song but would never have got the artist.
Ah yeah I knew I showed the name of the artist, everyone has heard the song but I literally have never ever heard the name of the band.
Super weird band by the sounds of it. They call themselves bross, and they're actually twin bro's, also I always always thought that song was sang by a woman. Still not convinced.
That's just being mean putting a spoiler there for me. His surname is something like Fantasia, cos I remember thinking it was a bit feminine when the euro draw was on. That's all I got. I'll give it 10 mins and click the spoiler cos I don't think I'll get it but I think I'm close on the surname.
Pfft, lol me. Wtf was I thinking with Fantasia. Wouldn't have got that name but happy to see an Italian name there. His face is instantly recognisable so that's kinda annoying about the name.
Had a few drinks and thinking about Lazare and know I am not the only one. People slag off forums loads of times but seeing the thgts for him from so many will although not take away the pain but hopefully they give some strength. A mixed up and cantankerous lot we can be at times but it was with a united and heavy heart that so many thanks was given to a most heart rendering post. I like many most likely reread that post many times and shook ones head and I just wish I could shake your hand Lazare and express my condolences in person. Your suffering is an island but IPB is the sea that surrounds you and I am proud to be part of it.
Just a reminder that the 2016 Darts Premier League starts tomorrow.
Signups still being taken for the IPB competition based on it. Week 1 selections being entered here, really very simple as you'll see.

Never been, I thought it was supposed to be a bit of a kip? Would be interested if it was cool. Was leaning towards Asia
it's dirty, smelly, hot, noisy and beautiful all at the same time. it's not for everyone, but personally, i love it (i think it's a love it or hate it kind of place, so you might want to hear other peoples opinion of it). we found a nice hotel outside of town, with a nice pool etc. so could chill out a few days and go into town a few days, also did a couple of day trips in the atlas which are stunning, but it's a pretty buzzing place at night also which we didn't partake in (as went with our kids)...and the hashish is world renowned
these are the photos i took at the time, it might give you a feel for the place.
re Asia, everywhere is amazing, so maybe try marrakech for a long weekend or something.
Haha I get you, sounds kinds cool. Need to get the finger out and get something booked. Sonar for June and August September then for somewhere more exotic.
It was my first time outside of Europe/USA as a holiday and I absolutely shit myself when I got off the plane. Just operates totally differently from what I was used to.
Was certain I was being kidnapped by the taxi driver who drove the wrong way down the dual carriageway before dropping us 'near' the hostel and asking a random guy on the street to walk us through the laneways to get there.
Took one of the excursions to the desert (near Zagora) that they organise for you, camel ride, stay in a Berber Tent after a music session under the stars, which was pretty special.
I was there for 4 nights, not sure that you'd need to be there much longer to see it all and soak it up, but there's always the option of the 5* places for an all-inclusive few days, or heading off on some of the other day trip excursions (there were 10/12 options that the hostel were able to offer).
Make sure to get a Hammam. Try to ignore that it's a fella scrubbing your arsehole, and tip him well.
I thought they might do the cuntish thing and put it on a Thursday so I find myself giving them a brownie point straight off the bat the shrewdy fuckers.

Or the fact that your vote is presumably in Tralee and you might not be able to make it down - so no vote for you either. How difficult would it be for them to let you call into, say, a Dublin polling station and make your Tralee vote there?
Presumably they think that someone who lives permanently in Dublin shouldn't really be deciding who gets to represent a constituency on the Atlantic seaboard?

The fact that 50k people are going to London for a rugby match on Friday and this disenfranchises them from a say in their government of the next five years is beyond backward. Introduce a decent postal vote system ffs. In UK you can get a postal vote for any reason.

The whole system is designed to disenfranchise younger people.
50,000 people who you would imagine are more likely to vote FG than any of the other parties. It is a massive miss step.
