Bias can only be measured against your own personal politics, therefore balance can not really be measured in any meaningful way . Of course the press is biased , because if it wasn't it would be boring and sterile . Just because the most popular papers are The Mail & The Sun lefties get their knickers in a twist over it . People like Toynbee & Little Owen Jones are the most biased opinion writers around , often disguising opinion as fact . I just laugh at some of their articles , whereas lefties seem to foam at the mouth when it's Littlejohn or Hitchens . The bbc is also biased, because individual reporters ( particularly political ones ) analysis shows that bias . They don't just report the facts they get asked by the anchor " what does this mean for Corbyn , or for the government " ect . Once they start to give their opinion it naturally contains a level of bias . One persons balance is another persons bias . The bbc are particularly poor at picking political guests for programmes such as QT. It's always the same old faces , why they think people like Janet Street Porter or David Starkey have anything to offer is beyond me . If I was a leftie I'd be particularly upset if I was represented by people like Abbott all the time .Although her patronising causal racialism is great for right wing votes .

Vic has got rocks for brains and so have some of our supporters judging by the way they clapped him off and some defending him on here . You have to use a little bit of brain playing in the modern game , you can't go diving in like that and not run the risk of getting a red . I don't care whether he got the ball or didn't catch the guy , he gave the ref a decision to make , when he didn't need to . First off , he should have controlled the ball , but when he didn't , he needed to show some restraint instead of lunging in . People can cry all day long about ****enburg or the West Ham reaction , but he's now been sent off 3 times . Add that to the fact that he's refused to play once this season it becomes clear that his unprofessional behaviour is costing us . 9 times out of 10 we'd have lost that game , but even though we didn't , we've now got to rely on Classie ,a man who for all his talents doesn't seem capable of putting a 5 match run together . Everybody worked so hard when we had 10 , but I thought Long was superb . Wholehearted is an understatement when it comes to that guy . We are so much better without Pelle lumbering around , I thought he was really average today .

It's supply & demand , why on earth would a business reduce prices , when people are perfectly willing to pay the higher prices . No other sector does it, why should football ? Don't give me any pony about " community assets " or other such nonsense , that ship sailed years ago . Far from being an incentive to reduce prices the new tv deal re-enforces high prices . As the reliance on attendance money goes down the power of the stay away protest diminishes . If the away attendances start to drop off the pressure will build for less away allocations and more home fans.

He didn't claim they cared about him . Only that they're commercial business that give the people what they want . If The Sun or Mail started spouting leftie Guardian nonsense , their circulation would drop like a stone .

Spot on . In a recent podcast that loony Toynbee said that the EU was too important to the National interest to allow the public a vote on staying in .Lefties love patronising the very people they claim to represent .

Can't believe there's anyone who'll drop Long . He'll run Collins ragged and has been a major part in our great run lately . I thought the Arsenal back 4 played him well Tuesday , rather than him being off form. Him & Mane are going to click soon and we'll get a hatful . I'd revert to a 3 at the back bringing Targett in for Tadic & Davis back if fit . Austin , Tadic & Pelle on bench gives is pretty good firepower and decent changes .

I guess they don't have bar code readers on their turnstiles and that's why they won't issue duplicates . 40 years of going and I'm yet to lose a ticket despite plenty of booze ups beforehand , I'm just hoping this won't be the first , as I'm on the **** in Poole all day beforehand .

Pathetic lies yet again . Why don't the EU nutters ever show principle , why don't they ever defend their beloved Union . Europeans tell the truth , they know what the EU is and accept it . Our Pro EU politicians just use smoke & mirrors .

More pony from the Little Europeans. When we sign TTIP agreement with The US does that give their citizens free movement into the EU. Do Australians or Canadians have free movement , do they trade with the EU without it? The simple fact of the matter is that Norway & Switzerland have done a deal with the EU that suits them . Just because their sovereign parliaments accept free movement does not mean that the 5th largest economy in the world has to accept the same terms . The British Parliament could allow free movement of Americans or Canadians into the UK and when we leave the EU our sovereign parliament could allow free movement of EU citizens . However , we will have the right to chuck the government out and it'll be a UK only decision . What we won't have is the pathetic sight of a UK prime minister going round Poland , Hungrey and the like , begging them to allow us to tweak OUR benefits . How on earth can you be called an independent country when you can't decide who receives your taxpayers money or even decide who can and can't enter your country .

Dear God , did that labour women in QT just say the most important factor in referendum was cheap phone calls & queues at the airport. She then compared Cologne incident to blokes wolf whistling chicks on a Friday in Brum .

If you can not see the difference between a war fought to protect British interests or British Allies, with a war fought following an invasion of our territory, then you really shouldn't be posting on this thread . Whether Iraq or Kosovo is worth a single soldiers life is debatable , chucking the Argies out is not . You can not roll over and let foreign powers take our territory by force and if that unfortunately leads to people losing their lives , that price has to be paid.What message would the giving up on Falkland Islanders have sent to the rest of the world

You don't half spout some nonsense . Living in Poole , home of the SBS & a big marine camp , you meet lots of vets ( not that any admit to being SB ) as many stay in the area when they're times up . I've met & got friendly or worked with dozens and dozens over the years , including one who was one of the 22 originally on south Georgia ( he even wrote a book about it ) and despite losing friends , not one ever complained that it was not worth it . They were protecting UK lives & Uk territory , simple as that . If you're going to start letting foreign governments kill our citizens and invade our territories because they may not kill many , or the population is low , or some daft lefties think they shouldn't be part of our great nation then you'll end up with even greater trouble than we have now . What would make them angry is if lefties like you made their sacrifice meaningless by handing the islands to the Argies just because of some warped political dogma .

I want them to go through after a tiring reply , then next round , right up to losing on pens in a 1/4 final reply . With that & the weather theyll need to play about 9 games in 3 weeks come the end of the season . Obviously I hope the cup games are at poxy little grounds where they get little money from it . I can put up with the delusional " cup fever " if it means another year in Div 4

Maybe this is his level because he's not good enough for the premier league .

Don't talk nonsense man .

He wouldn't have made it on the ballot with the present threshold without the biggest suicide mission in modern politics . People who didn't want him to win , didn't vote for him , " lent " him their nomination .

Syrian or non Syrian , surely once they're in France they become economic migrants trying to reach the uk rather than Aslyum seekers fleeing persecution and or war . I always thought our NATO & EU ally was a safe haven.

length of contract doesn't really mean **** all when it comes to managers , it's the terms and length of any severance that's the key . Pardew had an 8 year contract with Newcastle but if it was written in that they could sack him and pay him up a years money , he is ineffective on a rolling 1 year contract . I also very much doubt Palace had to pay Newcastle anymore than if he was on a one year rolling contract . I think a one year rolling contract with a low severance deal for both sides would be a pretty good comprimise really . Ron seems to attract players because of who he is and going into his last year creates a little bit of uncertainty. Would VvD have signed if he thought Ron was off this summer?

I would have said Kos , I think it's a wonderful island . Don't know what the situation is there now . Crete is nice , hippy beach Matala is one of my favourite beaches . Wherever you go the Greeks are wonderful hosts .

So it looks like this ridiculously over paid flop , is hanging out for more money rather than a move to further his career . Doesn't quite tie in with the Gastonettes assertion that he really tries hard & is clearly talented . He's been nicking a living off us for years & thankfully we only have 6 more months to put up with the useless lump . Why doesn't he sign for them with a clause to double his money based on certain criteria ? After all , the Gastonettes keep telling us that he's suited to the Italian game .

Like he was for Hull last season , how did his " efforts" there go?

Just watched Catch up & saw Andrew Neil take this neuclear subs using conventional weapons guff apart in an interview with Posh Emily Thornbury . She then became the third shadow cabinet minister ( according to him ) to invite him to contribute to a " review" . Every time he gets them in a muddle they resort to this " review" of a particular policy line .

The Corbynistas need to understand this simple fact . To gain a majority they need to win Tory seats . Racking up votes and increasing support in Islington & other leftie enclaves won't win them 1 extra seat , well maybe Brighton Pavilon , but thats it . They do remind me of the famous Michael Foot story , he refused to believe opinion polls because everywhere he went he was mobbed, praised & cheered to the rafters . Jezza has engaged thousands of people , but NONE of them voted Tory at the last election .

I maybe a boring twt but this has always fascinated me . The transition from player to manager and how good you have to be . One of the biggest surprises in my football watching life is George Graham's Arsenal , anyone who saw George as a player would find it hard to equate that classy skilful player with the way he managed his sides . I always think managers that felt they underachieved as a player ( whether through injury or lack of ability ) have the drive that makes them s great manager . Cloughie being the real example as he had his career cut short . Maybe lawrie felt the same , as even to play at the semi professional level he played , you need to be decent . I never saw him play , but my Fulham supporting grandad said Bobby Robson was a really good player . As for saints , Bally was a great player as was Souness & Koeman . Personally , I think Souness was the best player , but Bally was a Saints player whereas the other 2 weren't. I still miss the guy , what a player , and what a guy . Legend
