According to Christian beliefs God got 12 year old Mary pregnant - a much bigger age difference!

'Better to be safe than sorry' is not argument that encourages nor supports a free and democratic society. It is an argument that would support the banning of any open bus parade in the first place for instance.

Questions he was not obliged to answer.

It may be a "reasonable" request but it certainly isn't reasonable to detain someone who fails to comply with that request and to confiscate/examine their camera equipment UNLESS there was additional cause to believe the individual was involved in terrorist activities. Requiring all supporters...

Are the following reasonable requests? - questions which if asked of the right people could equally prevent the scenario you outline. 'What are your bank account details?" 'What is your email password?" "What web sites have you visited" . . . . and so on. The key thing is that they are all...

That's the same argument used regarding 'weak' team selection for cup games. It's not the case though - it not only devalues one competition it also gives them an advantage in another one or against other teams in the same competition - isn't that the whole point of resting key players? It's...

What's the difference? Don't fans matter? Travel hundreds of miles to watch your team play and few if any of the 'first team' play. Moan about it on here and be told that it was important to rest players for the league - certainly no suggestion it is cheating! All Huddersfield did is rest...

The same question could be asked about almost every cup game we've played in the last 10 years!

What is the point of having a "squad" of players if there is a restriction on the team you select from that squad? It's the manager's job to decide which is the best side for a particular match not the League's.

Sure it is good fun when asked about getting tickets but on a more serious note, assuming we manage to stay in the PL for a number of seasons, what effect will this have on feeding the fan base. If tickets are all but impossible to come by how are youngsters 'coming of age' going to be able to...

I've missed all bar 2 home games and yes I have renewed my season ticket for next year. Hope springs eternal. Heart problems couldn't stop me going to the Wigan game nor will it stop me going on Saturday, even if it takes two days to recover. My seat hasn't been empty once this season though :)

Enough to cover all 180's salaries for the next six months :)

Maybe Timex will sponsor a clock in the East concourse ???

Exactly - the border wasn't opened, (having been closed for the previous 16 years), until Spain joined the EU. On a personal note I still hold a grudge against Gibraltar - whilst on a backpacking holiday in Europe and Africa I was refused entry, (despite having a British passport) in 1969...

I can relate to that but in commercial terms why should the club offer a discount to us oldies when they could sell the same ticket at a higher price? This is why my original post on this was in support of the poster who highlighted the many valuable concessions the club does make and are...

What has my level of income got to do with the club?

And don't forget the concession rates themselves - sure there is a commercial argument to justify discounts for young supporters because they are the adult supporters of the future. Why though do I get a cheap ticket just because I'm over 65. It can't even be argued that it is because in the...

Reading reports on this it appears that one of the intruders had a knuckle duster, (no mention of whether it was in his pocket or on his hand), and one a knife, (again no mention of its whereabouts) the third was unarmed. It wasn't the homeowner that did the shooting but his 23 year old son -...

Impossible to answer for sure but I would probably make sure they saw the gun. Let me ask you in the same scenario not only do you have a gun in your hand but so do each of the three burglars. Do you shoot 1? Do you drop your gun and comply with their demands? Which of the above is most...
