[Bozza]

..for £50m, give or take.

I can't imagine Lewis Dunk is too disappointed with this news!

This is going well

 

[heathgate]

That'll be Fulham rooted to the relegation tussle then.... it was his goals that kept them in the fight in a lot of matches.

Money Talks,

Expect Fulham to reinvest the £46m or whatever it is very quickly otherwise they look locked into a relegation threatened season

Linked with Florin Balogun apparently but so are, surprise surprise, Chelsea.

Well, Chelsea do need to invest some money into their squad as I don’t think they’ve bought anyone for at least 3 days.

Buying a striker who seems to know where the goal is would actually look to be a relatively sensible move from them.

Most Fulham fans I know are glad it's all over now. We definitely need another striker and - judging by yesterday's performance- back up all over except goalkeeper. The highlight of my day was visiting an exhibition about The Putney Debates.

After two games you have come to this decision?

I only went there because I was told The Levellers were playing...

For a minute there I thought you were talking about 'can't buy me goa . . . Oals' Everton

Link to the exhibition. While I was in there, I was talking to a workman who was installing cabling so they can host similar debates which will be cast on that interweb thing. I'm sure The Levellers would approve.

Al Bion?

 

[Mackenzie]

Thank god (Allah?) for that, he always scores against us.

Splendid stuff. Thank you. The Putney Debates are a subject of intrigue to me, given my evangelical belief that the wrong side of history is taught in schools. They were the voice of the working classes.

I'm glad it's a St Mary's, so I will plan a visit and try and time it with a Harlequins home match.

It's only a small exhibition and most of the text is on that website, but there were DVDs on offer with recordings of eminent historians discussing the significance of the Debates. I had been aware of them for some years but it was reading Act of Oblivion that spurred me into visiting St Mary's and it felt special being in such a place that was instrumental in a side of English history I'd like to see back (genuine debate led by ordinary people leading to the end of the monarchy). Also thinking that my grandmother worshipped in that church.

I am disappointed that the BBC now puts the Saudi league scores on its site.

I hadn't heard about that. Sounds interesting, need to take a detour to Putney, next time that I'm in London.

The things you learn on NSC

I spent 12 years in a Leyton secondary school and we spent several weeks teaching year 8s about the Putney debates. The children learned about the Levellers, Gerrard Winstanley and the Diggers as well. We also covered the Chartists, the Great Indian Rising, Peasants Revolt, Kett's Rebellion, The General Strike, The Miners strikes, the Poll Tax Rebellion, The Haitian Slave revolt, US civil rights, Malcolm X, the Panthers and more besides. All of which can be used in the curriculum and there are text books for.

That's a much more progressive curriculum than the one my daughter got taught at Dorothy Stringer! One of my great grandfathers was a school teacher in Putney and I wonder if he taught anything about the debates? I was also intrigued in Putney's history as Thomas Cromwell came from there - he was the son of a waterman - it was a major ferry and crossing point. Thomas would have been an early example of social mobility.
