    Genuine question, is Tomer Hemed any better than Chris O'Grady?

    Got say Hemed was poor last night. Did not win the ball in the air, did not hold it up or bring others into play attempts on goal, can't say I remember any. Made Joe Lynch look great. Taken off asap. Replaced by Ince so two up top abandoned. Finally COG came on to plough alone up front and made...

    Tories to the right and Labour to the left,are Farron and Liberals on their way back ?

    'I just wish there was a fairer electoral system such that we get a government of consensus based on the overall mood of the country, not one that was voted for by a minority of the electorate. Every. Single. Time' This is the only way we will see centre / consensus politics again...don't...

    Switching From Glasses To Contact Lenses

    Moved to contacts many years back, chose gas permeable hard lenses, more economic and safer. Has worked out well except when a bolder (small foriegn object) gets between lense and eye. Had a friend who worked at the eye hospital in Brighton as well as my GP they advised against soft and long...

    Westminster Parliament building £7 billion to restore

    Seems an opportunity to me to build a new parliament equiped and secure for the 21st Century. Argee it would be good to look at that being built in the middle of the country (think of the savings on M.P expenses). It could act as a focal point for the whole nation and perhaps help bring a very...

    Anyone in your family ever play Stoolball ?

    Yes. Mother played for Handcross for about 40 years and I played as kid. It tended to be a Sussex sport but is now played in Yorkshire. Many years ago I dated a Yorkshire lass who saw the game liked it and took it back up north she was a sports teacher and taught it to youngsters and it has...

    Thatcher or Bellotti?

    Surely great Primeministers deliver greatness to the nation that could not be said of Mrs Thatcher. She took apart a nation, destroyed the political consensus we have never recovered. In football terms she ending standing at games (kind of), stopped community funding of local clubs, sold off...

    Are labour voters the worst losers in the history of the world?

    Seems we both have our crosses to bare. My wife used to help dementia and coma patients, an interesting mix I am sure you will agree. We both hope a cure for dementia emerges soon. Snap on the best years, just loved watching Peter Ward and co, wonderful years. How I would love to see a repeat of...

    Are labour voters the worst losers in the history of the world?

    Hi Block F , Tend to think the alternative may well have been a mix of Labour, SNP etc despite the anti union (Scottish independence) stance of SNP . it would have an interesting mix and Nicola Sturgeon was a stand out in the televised debates. As Ed Milliband is my M.P and we have had...

    Are labour voters the worst losers in the history of the world?

    Answer to the question is....no. Like me a lot of people are fearful of a Conservative Government. Fear they will continue to demolish the best of British. The NHS, quality education free for all, a welfare state that protects all not just pensioners, maintaining the safety of our nation with...

    Next Labour Leader

    Throughout my 60 years my most prosperous times have been when a Labour government has been in power after they have cleared up the mess any previous Conservative government has has left us in as has been the case with David Cameruin. Let me define 'prosperous' for you. Having a good and free...

    Menin Gate - The Last Post

    i would place a visit on the National curriculum so each and every youngster would learn from and experience Ypres. I have visited regularly since 1971 and ran school trips every year, when I worked (now retired) at Ifield School in Crawley. We visited the Menin Gate last, but during the day...

    Player Ratings V Huddersfield

    As one of the 302 would say this is best assessment but most are on the same lines. Just add playing Baldock so deep (midfield) wasted his abilities and he did not fit this system thought Paddy would have been a better choice as he has more physical stature (might have reached some of those high...

    another nail in the tory coffin

    Total disgrace. Not surprising though, the anti disability theme has been followed consistently by the Tories since 2010.

    Do you think the JOCKS will vote YES ?

    Not seeing your point. The referendum did not reach the required turnout showing little appetite for independence at that time. The years that followed starting with Conservative policies of the 1980's which alienated a large portion of Scots driving down Conservative support north of the...
