bridge too far

Much as it pains me to say it, I think 'Arry would be quite good. But I'd still prefer Martin O'Neill.

Nice bit on BBC News just now with reporter saying that even though Redknapp has been found not guilty, there still remains a suspicion of shady dealings within football with commissions etc. etc. Nice link too to the problems at PFC. Not accusations - just suggestions

I lost interest when I saw the two 'candidates' I was offered (neither of which was Labour). So bland looking I can't even remember their names. Now if I'd had the choice of Andy Burnham and A N Other - well, no contest

Not wishing to 'side' with the Corpulent One, and being purely pedantic, I don't think he can start a new thread, only being a registered user 'n all.

There's going to be a segment on this on BBC1 South Today (around 1.30pm). Will probably be repeated tonight at 6.30

^^^^^Why am I not surprised at the names of companies participating in this (well, I'm a bit surprised at Sainsburys and Boots actually)I won't be using these companies in future.

Highly regarded member of the Labour Party and worked tirelessly for the working man / woman.

Jeez! We had loads here - people trapped on M40 for hours. Had I not cancelled our plans to have my granddaughter for the weekend, I would have been caught up in that! Phew!

I guess the BBC will drop her as an economics expert and that will be a shame because she's a very clever lady and very highly thought of in her field.

My brother is in to this in a big way. He phoned me (on Burns' night) to tell me that, on my mother's side, we are descendants of Robert the Bruce!

Don't care. I'd rather he got his kit off than the other guy.

Football Tennis Cricket Rugby Athletics Gymnastics (regular and rhythmic) Netball Swimming In fact most sports unless it's American but I don't consider snooker and darts to be sports.

I've been a PFI Project Manager, a Procurement Manager and a Capital Projects auditor (oh and a dancer many moons ago). But I'm retired now so not much use to anyone apart from my daughters when I look after their children two days a week.

But how can they fund this? Their bank accounts are frozen!

Quite spoiled my dinner

So how will the Hull fans get their refunds? Or will Hull refund them? Does that mean Hull will have to ask for their money back from PFC? Riiiiiiight

Not sure how the refunds will work. They are not giving cash refunds. But I thought their tickets were cash only. Will they refund onto cards? How can they do that if their bank accounts are frozen?

Maybe the PL expects it. From here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2009/jan/12/portsmouth-fulham-premier-league Did they ever get fined, I wonder?

My first husband's son from is second marriage (tenuous I know but the best I can do) has been invited to a party at No. 10. He's in a flourishing rock band - I told him to be like Sir Mick Jagger and not to be used as a political football.
