DAZN bought the rights to the NFL in the UK, hiked prices and got rid of entry level tiers. Three weeks into this season they've had to cut the price by 50%. Delighted that this has happened to them.

An advert showing NFL helmets, the text says "Game Changer, All the NFL Half The Price". Prices have been cut from £179.99 to £89

What on earth is happening?

This had become the new normal. RNLI crew members had been forced to take their permits off their cars after their tyres have been repeatedly slashed. Most of them have been pilloried at the school gates or turned away from local pubs. One man who worked in search and rescue had been beaten unconscious and hospitalised, recognised for TV interviews he had done.

Turnover in international rugby head coaches has slowed down, people get longer in a job despite poor performance. Why is that? Is it because modern culture is about "building something", a shallow pool of replacements, or just that contracts make it easier/cheaper to just keep the same guy?

It is utterly deplorable that a housing project in Glasgow was deliberately set on fire because of racist misinformation spread online. Those responsible will be fully pursued and will face justice. Let's unite against racism and lies that seek to break our communities apart.

There's a chance that Dolly Parton saw good, at some level, in every single human being except Piers Morgan, and I think that's beautiful

Piers Morgan: RIP Dolly Parton. Never met her, never interviewed her (despite decades of unrequited requests) but thought she was utterly fabulous in every way.

My daughter goes to quite an international school - today someone tried to align what kids got from the tooth fairy. It turns out in Spain, Mexico, and Ukraine (and more I assume) they don't have a tooth fairy, they have a tooth mouse. Nightmare scenario, we can't even align the tooth collector.

Went to meet some friends on the Meadows and stumbled across the "Clown Olympics". I love the fringe.

A couple of hundred people sat on the grass in a loose semi circle, looking towards a small group of performers with big trees as a backdrop. There's a big white board saying "The Clown Olympics", with a man in orange hi vis and a traffic cone hat writing on it.

Someone needs to do some research on the impact of Voi bikes on bike ownership. Total anecdata but after they reminded me the convenience of cycling I bought a new, more practical, bike after failing to find a Voi on a couple of occasions. Last night I overheard a guy say he'd done the same thing.

They've announced they're widening the parking spaces at a car park in my home town and everyone is delighted. Excited for the follow up "why can't I find a space to park my (massive) car? There used to be more spaces" comments.

Am I being stupid or did England not reach this stage of the 2018 World Cup, too? It feels far from a historic moment. Is it just because of Maradona and David Beckham (aka the two personality types)?

Erling Haaland and the rest of the Norwegian men's team are paid the same as the women's team. In 2017, they took a voluntary pay cut to allow the women's pay to be increased. The move came from the players' union, not management.
