And the conclusion: If you want to be influenced by economic modelling, the useful thing to take away is that the Treasury thinks leaving the EU would be bad for the economy, by an amount that would dwarf the savings from not having to contribute to the EU Budget.

Fallacy?

They can make those widgets providing they don't place them on the European Market. Whether the Guatemalans would buy them without a CE mark or whatever is a different question.

His movement is covered in the Laws Of The Game: Preventing an opponent from playing or being able to play the ball. For example, by clearly obstructing the goalkeeper’s line of vision or movement. Making a gesture or movement which, in the opinion of the referee, deceives or distracts an opponent.

If you knew what a Single Market was then why did you ask? Where on earth does this figure of six percent come from? The true figure is more like 45%.

Such unbelievable arrogance.

If only to stop a rival getting their services.

They do have the power to do almost anything but I agree, deducting points is unlikely. Closed doors is a sanction which is often applied in European circles.

It doesn't matter what it is called but The Single Market (capital letters) within the EU is what we are referring to here. Basically it implies a freedom to provides goods in services other than our own and as freely as they would be within our own. It is not just a matter of zero tariffs and common standards. Those of us that reeber what it used to be like before the Single Market will shudder at the thought of losing its benefits. These references will explain it more fully than I: http://ec.europa.eu/growth/single-market/index_en.htm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_market

All discrimination is wrong. In my view there is no such thing as 'positive discrimination'. As long as people continue to differentiate between people on the basis of their ethnicity there will never be an integrated society. Surely it is time that people stopped classifying individuals on the basis of their skin colour.

That is a problem with an outdated derelict stadium that doesn't have the appropriate facilities for modern football. I do sympathise with the fellow, having to sit through 44 years of watching Pompey and then having his seat taken away.

From reading that it's clear that he doesn't actually understand the practicalities of working within a single market.

You've mentioned the war. I had hoped that we'd moved on since then.

I think one of the players (Rooney?) said that they had been unsettled by the attack. They certainly took some time to get going in the match.

That's what I was thinking. We have to view the fees in conjunction with the wages and just consider what the overall cost is for each season. In some cases a player's value will increase during his time with us and we may get a higher fee than we paid, or more specifically higher than his book value. In most cases though it's just a matter of spreading the cost over their term of employment with us.

I usually enjoy being in the hand of others But you're right, this is fun too. I don't know which match to watch tonight, Sunderland's never-to-be-forgotten greatest ever escape or biting my nails whilst Chelsea stuff Liverpool.

Play behind closed doors for a season?

His value would have reduced over the length of his contract. Was the €7m the full upfront price or did it have conditions?

Very true.

Chelsea away?

He was given a run out right at the end (in injury time?). A nice touch from Pardew.

I'm comfortable with that.

But only for an infinitesimally short time. It spends infinitely more time wrong than it does right.

We can always hope.

Still injured.
