Not in the spirit of things I know but in the circumstances this is good news!

Interesting, where as I generally fall on the other side of the argument I often find you quite eloquent. I am guilty of stereotyping.

Very sad

and the relevance to the Sunderland player who declined to wear a poppy is.........

Yes Dinger take the context out won't you. If you don't like what I said re-read until you understand the point I was making.

They must be squirming at being cross examined by Margaret Hodge. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/businesslatestnews/9668396/Margaret-Hodges-family-company-pays-just-0.01pc-tax-on-2.1bn-of-business-generated-in-the-UK.html When will our politicians stop being hypocritical

I had assumed that Bearsy was the former Deppo. Now that was an example of a lack of freedom of speech.

as I say I miss Verbal's contributions to the debates. Where has Verbal gone?

No I definately miss Verbal. He genuinely added intellect to the debate. I am afraid with you Tokyo its like getting into an argument in a Student Union bar at one of the former polytechnics.

"not had such a good laugh in ages" Did you really mean that Bexy?

and you are very much a poor man's Verbal

So he plays for Northern Ireland or does he just hate everything British?

The idea of freedom is that you can choose one path and if people think you are hypocritical then they can tell you

If I felt that strongly I would'nt work there and take their money

and do you know why Sunderland are called the Black Cats??

So they took it on his word - somebody else clearly thought it was wise to show him a picture because that is how the story was found out. Poor journalism that exposed the political bias that underpins the BBC's reporting.

Well they showed him a picture and he then admitted this was not the man who abused him

If I had been poised to expose somebody as a paedophile I would have shown his accuser a photograph of the person whose reputation I was about to demolish

I suggest that you read what happened to Southampton during the Blitz. Our city was flattened. By all means have a different point of view but don't expect Saints fans to tolerate the fact that we expect people to remember those that risked and lost their lives (and still do) so that you can have a different point of view. Go and support another team if you think you are being bullied into wearing a poppy; if not appreciate why here in Hampshire we think people should wear a poppy.

Murdoch gets back at self righteous BBC over phone hacking by using Jimmy Saville Payback from BBC for Tories getting one over them on Jimmy Saville because BBC has a left wing bias Why don't they all grow up.

We are bigger than Fulham and Stoke but smaller than Villa and Everton

The irony of people arguing for the BBC for its impartiality and for making good modern day comedy programmes. The one thing the BBC would benefit from is having to compete in a free commercial market like everyone else.

Just ask anybody who has ever had dealings with him off the pitch. Is MLT being eclipsed by Ricky? You obviously did not watch Saints in late eighties early nineties.

Matty has always proved himself a legend on and off the pitch. Approachable, generous and loyal.

Not very healthy state of affairs for a balanced media
