Because he wanted to or because he had to?

John McDonnell has achieved the seemingly impossible and surpassed Ed Balls' level of incompetence. #spendingreview

There were no questions about JRod's fitness at the live press conference that I was commenting upon. Bloody journos.

Agree. Just reporting what Koeman said.

It does seem a tad over the top but there are more important things in life to fret about I would venture. C'est la vie...

I know I'm repeating myself but we've known for several weeks now that Jay has "painful feet" but not one interviewer has ever asked Koeman what type of injury is actually causing the pain. Hey ho.

JRod facing the prospect of surgery next week.

Koeman: "Jay is not good. His feet are very painful. We did everything but now we have a tough decision. Looks like surgery next week"

Another good day for Labour it would seem (caveat: yes, I know its The Sun....) http://www.sunnation.co.uk/are-you-sure-youve-never-seen-the-disarm-the-police-letter-mr-mcdonnell/

The usual high standard of pre-match press conferences are being maintained I see... http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/carlisle-v-pompey-paul-cook-press-conference-1-7074251

So, no questions about JRod's fitness at the press conference. Well played journos....

Koeman denied any interest in Luke Thomas at this afternoon's press conference

Koeman confirms that VvD is ok for the weekend

Third kit choices... can't work out if those socks are gold or brown....

Talking of which, nice jugs...

Ken Livingstone ‏@ken4london I unreservedly apologise to Kevan Jones for my comments. They should not have been made at all, let alone in this context. I also make this apology because Jeremy is right to insist on a more civil politics and as a party we should take this seriously
