Our business does look a bit messy of late, but it's not worth wetting yourselves or slagging anyone off until the window has closed.

I reckon Lambert should have got picked as well, and Connolly and Jaidi. Pearce is a f*cking mong.

With the sale of AOC, I must admit, I was hoping for a couple of 'marquee' signings. I live in hope.

No, that was Keith Granger.

Clifford and Woodward was an effort by Rupert Lowe to break the football mould. Clifford, unfortunately, is a bit of a charlatan. His 'Brazilian Soccer Schools' are well marketed, but massively inferior to other youth coaching projects. Our own Keith Granger has a far better scheme with his Football Garage. £300k salary for a kids coach was an absolute joke. No wonder clubs haven't been banging Clifford's door down since he left us. Ridiculous.

But equally, getting Jack Cork early in the window was very smart, as he has been excellent so far.

Andy, well done on your results and good luck on going for a really worthwhile degree with great career prospects. Much better that than others who do Media Studies, Film Studies etc. and realise their degrees are virtually worthless in the modern world.

Wow, think how much money you could save by not sending serious criminals to jail. The savings in the long run of banging up the feral youth will more than outweigh the cost of keeping them in prison.

They should work for at least 8 of those 23 hours.

Some people will continue to look for criminal ways to make money because they don't want to work. So while they are habitual criminals, nothing will change them. Make them graft in prison. Others are 'institutionalised' to prison life and have low self-worth. Make them graft in prison, it might give them more confidence and self-esteem. I believe prison should be looked on as a punishment first. Rehabilitation should be the job of the parole service.

I think their sentences are fair enough, and I'm not a right-wing loon. I'm not even right-wing. I think that comparitively, their sentences look harsh, but I think paedos and rapists should get at least 25 years.

I know one or two that have done time, and I also know a couple of prison officers. I haven't any first hand experience of these institutions, but my opinions are based on theirs. I wouldn't argue about rehabilitation, but it means that the prisoner wants to rehabilitate. There are schemes for them in place, but the success of them are quite low. So, make prison a deterrent. Make it hard work. It may make the repeat offenders actually want to rehabilitate.

I think you're the naive one.

Might I suggest then, that prison life should become more spartan and less of a burden on the Chancellor's wallet.

It's judges giving out the sentences, they give punishments as they see fit. I have zero sympathy for any of the pondlife getting sent down. One of our society's problem's is that that people aren't scared of the law because of the pathetic punishments that have been handed out. This is a step in the right direction in stamping out the scum in our society.

56% possession and 5 goals away to a very decent looking Ipswich side. Outstanding.

Personally, I'd rather he played in the reserves than be allowed to go on loan again. His loan last season was about putting him in the shop window. Someone will come in for him this month.

Hard fought draw.

Who gives a toss about Man Utd? Are we signing Rodriguez or not?

You make a fair point in the comparison with Miller.

The things is, this isn't a Sunday League side with a load of mates playing together. It doesn't work like that in professional football.

No, I haven't got a clue about him or Maynard. I bow to the expertise of some of the posters on here who obviously have an in-depth first hand knowledge of both players.

A draw would be an excellent result. It's going to be our biggest test so far. They are a far better side than Leeds or Barnsley.

I live in Woolston. Since Vospers shut down, the centre has become a sh*thole full of charity shops and takeaways. Don't move here, it used to be good but it's sh*t now.

Classy post. I had almost forgotten how much I despised her.
