I am saying that there is no point in trying to debte with somebody whose views are so obviously indoctrinated that they try to make political capital out of an issue that has little to do with politics.

There are over 8 million people in the country who were not born here.

If you really believe that our social and physical infrastructure is overloaded because of government policies then there's no hope for any sensible debate.

FT Italy 1-0 Malta

Well, it's only Malta

I'm fairly certain that Turkey compares favourably to Syria at the moment.

Indeed it does. I wonder who wrote it for him?

Graziano breaks the deadlock by bundling it into the net. 3 goals in 4 starts now.

0-0 at half time. Very scrappy.

No thank you. The traffic was awful this morning at M27 J5 and the Windhover roundabout. I really don't see the point of the park & rides, they just shift the problem up the road to somewhere else also totally unsuitable.

I don't consider an extra 10 to 20 million immigrants (from all sources) into the UK to be tiny or insignificant. That is what we have seen over the last decade or two. This country is becoming uninhabitable very quickly.

Arbitrary? That is the population of Syria. The rightful place for Syrians is in Syria, in their own homes and in their own society. They are being displaced by tens of thousands of ISIS/rebel fighters. If all those fleeing were to stay behind and maybe join the Syrian army and fight for their way of life then perhaps their families could stay in their own homes. There certainly isn't plenty of room in England. I don't know where you get that idea from. How many are you prepared to put up in your house, in your own bed?

The population of Syria alone is over 23 million. Where would they all go?

The family were trying to get from Turkey to Greece: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-34133210 Yet one more tragic and innocent victim of war and oppression and sadly he won't be the last. The root cause is in their homeland and that's where the problem needs to be tackled. Are the media right to show the photograph? I would say that it is neither proper nor necessary. This image will join the hundreds of thousands that have been taken over the last hundred years or so. When they lose the power to shock and affect us it will be a sad day but if that happens then they won't be shown.

Hmm. 'It didn't affect me in any way' ? And when they refer to a 'nail-biting second leg' against Midtjylland then you know it's a load of horlicks.

Cheers I really must get a new keyboard, or a new set of eyes. A brain would be too expensive.

Add-ons?

There's nothing irrational about fear of flying or hospitals.

But then they'd be after Ronald.

Of course not, he wasn't even playing FFS. Even if he had been we needed to score and we didn't. We were just awful. Abject. Dismal. Gutless...

It wouldn't take just an injury to Kane, a loss of confidence would be enough and that seems to be his problem at the moment.

That may not be the point. This might be a tactical offer.

I think we came to the same conclusion about Antonio when his loan with us ended.

I wouldn't call it central-ish but anything inside the M25 is getting stupidly expensive. I'll give it a couple of weeks and then try to find out what my Spurs-following relatives think about it all. I know that one of them would have preferred to give Sherwood longer.

Steady on, that's going a bit too far.
