Re: My view
Its been a long time since I've posted here, due to work committments, but I've thought long and hard about this. In the end, I've coem to the same conclusion. I'd love the club to stay in fan hands, but if we are to not just survive than thrive we need an owner who can take us to the next step. Pas...

Re: Could ya'll be any softer on criminals?
Yup - we could be a bit softer on criminals. Here you go. Honestly, it's enough to turn me into a Daily Mail reader. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-26880728 People in the clink certainly should be protected from attack but it's really, really hard to sympathise with a child raper and murderer...

Re: OT - India launches spacecraft to Mars
I'm sure I recall more than once hearing that India had said they neither want nor need UK aid.

Re: The NFL is back dudes!
Finally, as the Bungles division rivals....bwahahahahahaha I guess I walked into that one didn't I. Yes the past few games have been better, although its still a dependence on defence that has seen us through, and that did rather break down against the Raiders, plus our first quaters continue to ra...

Re: The NFL is back dudes!
Ok so I never got around to posting this pre-season, and there is certainly no pleasure to be posting this now but here goes: The Steelers. Exactly. As it happens, and I know there have been great years in between, I feel like I'm back where I started with them, back in 84 or 85 when the C4 coverage...

Re: Best Player You've Ever Witnessed Live
As all the obvious choices have been made, though I'll give you a name. Liam Brady..... Almost worth creating another thread for players who were capable of dictating the pattern of a match. Liam Brady was one, Eric Cantona was another, Hoddle too. And Paul Merson, let's not forget. Yes, I'm surpri...

Re: Best Player You've Ever Witnessed Live
Gazza, but not the FA Cup game. In 87/88, v Newcastle. Only 19 and was just sheer genius that day. Impossible to mark because he was everywhere. Not that it mattered, because nobody could get the ball off him anyway. I remember him nutmegging Clive Whitehead, then stopping, turning round and doing ...

Re: Foot firmly shot in
Seeking Parliamentary approval was the right thing to do. However, the vote wasn't the right result and, if the US also backs down, there will be no justice for the 1,429 victims. Once the dictators of the world see that they can commit such war crimes with impunity, there will be no protection for...

Re: Foot firmly shot in
Syria seems like a civil war to me, one that has been going on for 2 years with a 6-figure death toll. I don't really see the difference in killing with chemicals or with bullets. I think there is a significant difference in terms of escalation and in terms of shifting the goalposts of acceptable a...

Re: Foot firmly shot in
As far as Iraq was concerned, Saddam Hussein was committing genocide with the Kurds (sod the WMDs) and so the West shouldn't (and didn't) stand idly by. You can argue the excuse of WMDs being contrived - but genocide is genocide is genocide. You cannot allow it to happen. The right decision to go i...
