I'm not a social worker, I'm in the private sector as you are. I have though worked on social care publications that report on the field, so I'm fairly informed of the challenges this workforce faces. I think that mine was a fair assumption of your ignorance given that you compared your job as...

Whether she did her job or not IS the question. This tribunal has obviously found that she was treated unfairly, I don't believe you've looked a the evidence to present an informed opinion on that. Without Googling though - can you name any of those 3 people convicted for the killing of that...

Quite. Of course, that shouldn't be a choice, but a sensible discussion about what we as a society are willing to tolerate in terms of risk to our children isn't possible. Our politicians don't want that debate because the answers may pose them big problems.

Not sure what you're saying? I'm not bitter. I am angry though about the level of child abuse and neglect in this country and our government's lack of interest in adequately funding a response to it. As I say, I'm not really sure what you're getting at.

What a load of Ed Balls. 'I'm sure child care services is a difficult profession'. Frankly, I don't think you have a clue about how difficult it is. I've no doubt you are oblivious to the horror that's out there. Please - tell everyone what you do for a living. Let's compare the difficult...

Why so?

Wow. We should get temperatures in the high thirties later today then! Or perhaps you got the temperature at 8.15am wrong.

This. Part of the problem is that our players consider themselves superstars the moment they get into a Premier league first team. The reality of this WC is that none of our players impressed as much as many of the payers from the like of Algeria, Costa Rica, Chile, Ecuador etc. Our players are...

That apostrophe bugs me.

We failed to even qualify for a WC when nearly all the players in the top division were British. Go figure.

I thought Danny Murphy was excellent last night as co-commentator.

Bozza - If they're not all that do you wanna give me some ludicrous odds on them reaching the final? 10-1? maybe?

All these guys saying 'I never use the BBC, honest' - LIARS.

He made 32 appearances for the runaway Championship winners last season. 41 appearances for us the season before when we finished 4th (and really should have gone up). Then of course there were 48 appearances for Southampton as club captain when they got promoted in 2011/2012. Sorry, what was...

That's just plain embarrassing.

Thank you Virgo's Haircut. Bounce :flameboun

I'm taking part in a Twitter challenge, the aim being to build up (from scratch) as bigger following as possible over a month or so. I've decided to set up a Twitter account where I can share my love for football quiz questions and trivia. If this is your thing, then please follow me - I'm on...

It made you laugh? Why?

Wrong. I was there and the idea that 500 were singing that is a fantasy. The vast majority shuffled out saying nothing.
