Do you seriously think that an under-cooked friendly v Nantes, at the Amex, when he has time and space, is a benchmark for judging Knockaert? Judge him when the chips are down away from home. List me his three best away performances in the PL and then we can all have a giggle. Likewise March. I...

....but how many of us looked at yesterdays team when it was announced and felt totally and utterly uninspired. Its not as if we don't know what to expect away from home. Time and time again, we have had to put up with poor displays from the same players away from home and predictable, paceless...

Vaughan could see the signs and so could a lot of experienced watchers. England are prone to playing loose cricket at the highest level and regularly and needlessly get themselves in trouble from positions of relative strength. 216-3 should have produced a match winning total and then with India...

Well thank you for not blaming me wholesale. Incredibly patronising comments about someone you haven't got a clue about. You don't know my background, my job, my age, my aspirations, my political leanings. Nothing. And yet you have the pomposity to lecture me about doing more research about the...

No. To leave the EU was the will of a majority of the people that voted and thats what counted. The referendum was a massive political gamble by a PM that put party politics before the interests of the country. Their arrogance defied belief. They were so sure of themselves that they were...

1) EU procurement directive forces us to give State contracts to overseas business. 2) Non compliance with VATMOSS legislation will boost jobs 3) Lower compliance costs. 4) Won't have the threat to the free functioning of the Internet. 5) Non compliance with Articles 107 and 108 of the TFEU...

Some people will argue that life couldn't get anymore worse for them, than it is now. This is a national debate not the sole preserve of the Southern based chattering classes, comfortable in their middle class existence, taking regular holidays abroad and earning decent salaries and living in...

Don't blame the 71.8% of the electorate who voted. Blame the 13 million people who didn't bother to turn out. If they were so disinterested first time around, about the most important vote post-war , then I can't see them racing out to polling booths to decide whether they like the deal or not...

I thought we were already paying Custom Union tariffs on food ( 22% ) and clothing/footwear ( 11% ), let alone the 10.2% we have to pay on non EU cars coming in. You need to have a closer look outside if you don't think that schools, roads and infrastructure aren't shabby enough already. The...

So... have you never stopped for a moment to consider that the EU might not carry on ad infinitum, in its present structure, or even at all? Have you considered that it has been weakened by our withdrawal, one of the largest net contributors to EU coffers or regard the EU decision to keep...

They did not break electoral law but they did spend £9m of taxpayers money, without consultation, putting forward one side of the argument.

I think you will find that lines of communication between BHA and Reading are still open. Don't write off a Moore deal yet.

Ah... the Common Market....whatever happened to that?

" But the Brexiteers have decided to dump half a century of history, bought at the cost of hard negotiation and compromise, in favour of airy talk of " sovereignty and " control " ....oh how convenient it is to forget our ( Cameron's and some of his predecessors ) appalling efforts at...

Thank you for that ridiculous and inappropriate comparison. I repeat the words of Andrew O'Hagan from 2017 to which I wholeheartedly agree..... " Dacre's worst effect has been to let it seem mired in the things it hates, as if society's worst excesses were mostly an outgrowth of its own paranoid...

Ah....you misinterpreted my little bit of sarcasm. We continually read on here that everyone who voted Leave is a congenital idiot and that was my little dig.

So your inference is that Leave voters were poorly informed, whilst Remain voters were not? The vote was simplistic. Either in the EU or out. It was a straight yes or no. It didn't matter if it was a majority of one vote. What did the Leave voters have to be informed about? How good the EU is...

The majority of Leave voters feel frustrated that the negotiations have been left in the hands of a pro-Remain PM, who quite frankly, has singularly failed in her duty to respect the majority decision of the electorate. This situation has been stage-managed by key members of the Conservative...

Fair play to Kane but his award feels a bit hollow. Three penalties, a deflection he knew little about and a tap in from two yards ( I know...he had to be there, in the first place ) The winner v Tunisia was tricky and well taken. He did, however, fade badly in the tournament and seemed to lose...

Some of you lot should have been around in 1976. We had a three month heatwave ( June/July/Aug ) Barely a drop of rain for three months. Hosepipe bans everywhere. Playing cricket was unbearable. You came off the field dripping wet with sweat. Dust bowls everywhere. Google England v W Indies...
