    [Politics] Rees Mogg / Andrew Bridgen Grenfell

    The problem is that he used the phrase "People like us" when talking to Nick Ferrari. Two white males of middle to upper class. Some people have taken this as an inference that BAME or lower class people are less intelligent. That's the issue. Grenfell is a thorny subject as we all know...

    [Albion] Richard Keogh

    I think there is a clear difference between not paying a player who was injured in training or a game or by accident. Keogh was pissed and got into one of the young players cars, both of whom were also pissed. They then seemed to engage in a race. As a senior player, Keogh should have been...

    [Politics] Pretty Vicious PMQ NHS Exchange

    Which is precisely why an election should be abandoned and we should have a people's vote instead. People will be forced to vote tactically to pursue or try and stop Brexit and will end possibly voting for a party they would never have dreamt of voting for, probably don't agree with much of...

    [Albion] Selling players next year.

    It wont be just for the sake of it. Bloom, Barber and Ashworth wouldn't operate in that fashion. The likes of Bruno and Ben Roberts being given coaching roles at the club will be because they are good coaches. We don't get to see that side of the players but I have no problem trusting our...

    [Food] Tipping

    That's because most payment is on card now. These tips need to be counted, separated, taxed and then paid into peoples wages. When everyone paid cash, it was a much more straight forward process that didn't go by the tax man!

    [Food] Tipping

    I disagree - having worked in hospitality for over 20 years, I absolutely would not have tipped in the circumstances you describe. I would also have made sure I paid at the till, preferably with a member of management staff and would have explained why I hadn't tipped.

    [Cricket] England Tour Parties

    Even if it was a Test Championship series Anderson would have been touch and go. Limited time and very few matches to prove his fitness ahead of the NZ series. He'll probably be back for SA next spring. Michael Vaughan was suggesting that Broad and Anderson may well be rotated in order to...

    WTF has that got to do with the NHS policy over sickness???

    [Albion] Shane Warne describes Chris Adams as a 'Club Cricketer' on twitter

    One incident so far in his career. Botham got involved in numerous scraps over the years.

    [Albion] Shane Warne describes Chris Adams as a 'Club Cricketer' on twitter

    Come on mate, surely you can see the point Thunder Bolt was making? Obviously Saville is a vile human being but by normal standards Botham hasn't exactly covered himself in glory. Various incidents of fighting over the years, infidelity and "that" tweet.

    [Football] Wage Capping

    Everyone is focusing on the financial disparity between PL and EFL which is of course relevant but that still doesn't account for the fact that the EFL routinely allow people to buy clubs that shouldn't be allowed to own them. Dale had over 30 liquidated businesses and never produced proof of...

    [Albion] Dan Burn - shirt pull - VAR review

    There was a similar situation in the City game. The defender had hands around Rodri's neck and pulled him to the floor and it wasn't given. Stonewall penalty.

    [Technology] The best games Console of its time

    Mates and I spent whole summers playing Goldeneye multiplayer. In terms of a multiplayer experience its still hard to beat. Graphically, it's obviously appalling but first to 10, licence to kill with pistols and no map is still an incredibly exciting prospect.

    [Football] All Deadline day deals

    Of course it would be allowed - its exactly the same as the mooted Zaha deal. Cash plus two players in exchange for Zaha.

    [Cricket] ***Gloucestershire Guppies v Sussex Sharks, T 20 Bristol County Ground,KO 14.30 4.4.19***

    I have to say I quite enjoyed the partisan commentary. It was off the back of the penalty run situation which their commentator hugely disagreed with although it seems there's no requirement for the umpires to warn the fielding side through the game.

    [Albion] Knocky - retain or release?

    The season isn't two games long. We can't afford to carry a player that only decides to turn up twice a season. If he played like that in 75% of the games last season, bigger clubs would be looking to buy him. As it stands, a Championship club want him - he's a yoyo player. Too good for the...

    [Travel] Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum

    The salt mines are incredible. The huge chapel, carved by hand by the miners was a thing of wonder. The smaller scenes are still impressive. Think you missed the point of them as they are now.

    [Football] The Gay Footballer

    He can say it the same way that you said its entirely a dressing room issue, with no actual evidence to back it up. The truth is probably somewhere the two view points. As I mentioned earlier, Jamie O'Hara has stated that he played with TWO gay footballers in the PL. The whole dressing room knew...

    [Football] "why can't we sign tried and tested Premier League footballers"

    Irrelevant!! If you're doing your job for £35k a year and someone offers to put a 0 on the end of that for you, you're not going to say "no thanks, I can survive on £50k - just pay me that."
