  1. I've seen comments where Charlie Hebdo has been held responsible for what happened because of what they have published. Isn't that like saying that if a girl goes out wearing sexy clothes she deserves to get raped? Nothing gives anyone the right to march into an office an execute people at their workplace.

    Ched Evans

    Sorry but I dont agree. He was only convicted after the jury had the case presented to them. If they had made up their minds beforehand (and how can you when you havent heard and seen the evidence?) how come they aquitted his mate? Why also would the CPS "pull" the case? They already have a successful prosecution. If a retrial was ordered why would they not go ahead when they have already considered the evidence and felt that they have enough to prosecute and been proved right to do so? The Review Commission will need to decide if the case has been tried properly and unless they find that the judge is at fault at some point it is hard to see that it hasnt been. Don't forget that it has ben up for appeal before and got nowhere. The only question I can see as things stand is why his buddy got off.

    I would say that being found guilty by a jury is pretty conclusive but we shall have to see what the review throws up.
  4. Both competitions are important and there is little point playing if you aren't bothered about winning.

    The Board

    After the sh*tstorm last summer they quietly went about their job of reparing the damage and have since quietly disappeared into the background again to let Ron do his job. Mightily impressed with the way SFC is run and so good to see the club getting its just rewards.
  6. But a foul in the box is a penalty. Pulling someone back by the shirt is as much as a foul as a trip.
  7. Indeed. If you trip someone in the area you dont get warned that if you do it again it will be a penalty!
  8. There are plenty of Christians that will kill you in a heart beat to.
  9. Hats off to Tadic's finish. Quality.
  10. Cook
  11. spot on
  12. Ron also has better hair.
  13. Dont get carried away guys, we are still a point away fom safety!!!
  14. Brilliant. 6 pointer. Even more gutted we didnt turn them over at St Marys but great win today.
  15. over
  16. woohooooo
  17. What do you think about Taylor's commets about Hillsborough?
  18. Agreed. Nothing more than verbal handbags really. Apparently Ronaldo has given Bale grief twice recently when he chose to shoot instead of pass. Footballers and their egos eh? By the way, I think Osvaldo IS an @rse.

    Not sure how you can reach the conclusion that Evans will "probably" be aquitted and why should the CPS "pull" the case? They had a successful prosecution.Their job is to get the case to court and to get a conviction which they have done. Anything else is up to the courts and legal process.
  20. Unsure about Jimmy Carr He has good material but just comes across as a smug @rse with a laugh like a constipated seal.
  21. Loved theCarry On films and still laugh at them now.Strangely the "new wave" of comedians did a Carry on film (Carry on Columbus?) back in th 80s and it was totally unfunny.
  22. I have never said that I dont think that Evans is not entitled to seek employment and technically and legally there is nothing preventing him playing professional football again. There is quite clearly though a huge moral issue surrounding this and one that Taylor would have done well to heed.
  23. My point is that all supermarkets seem to be heaving at Christmas so what is the point in advertising at that time of year? I didnt make my choice based on an advert. I made my choice on locality and the fact that I saved a few quid. I appreciate that they all fight for market share at Christmas but I dont think a clever ad makes the slightest bit of difference.
  24. So you think he should stand up and say no matter what Evans did and no matter the public outcry, he should be allowed to ply his trade again? If he was a teachers union rep he wouldnt have a leg to stand on. Perhaps he should have counseled Evans on how to conduct himself to give himself the best chance of getting a job when he came out rather then letting him carry on digging a hole for himself?
  25. Eek, who is he stalking?
