    It might seem odd talking about six-pointers in October, but with 20th playing 21st, you have to feel this match is vitally important for both sides.

    Southampton and Basingstoke councils have become the latest authorities to scrap plastic recycling banks.

    People were able to use the service to recycle items like pots, tubs and trays but the market has collapsed after China refused to accept the waste.

    About 30 banks across Southampton and Basingstoke are being removed by the company operating the service Printwaste.

    Residents can still recycle some plastics, like bottles, via their kerbside collections, but have been told to put non-recyclable plastics in their general bin to be incinerated.
