So we were promised a resolution but the programme has left us hanging with news that a 2nd series will have new characters and a new story line. Thanks for that.

I am sure Manchester United thought their team was good enough to turn over a 2nd division team at Wembley in 1976. This is cup football. Results don't always follow league positions or form.

Do you know how fit Toby was? Were you involved in the meeting that the coaching staff had when deciding the team?

Yeah, bummer. It would be so much better if we were in the bottom three.

And apparently Gardos played well so what is your point?

Not deluded, but not a bedwetter either pal.

Every match is a chance to win something - cup or league. Unlike Poch he played the best players he had (in his opinion). I am not sure what you expect him to do? Put his boots on and play? We have hardly been cr*p all this season have we? Perhaps we will continue to fade, perhaps we will pick it up again. Bit early to start throwing the towel in don't you thinK

I seem to remember RK playing it down when we were 2nd??? Not sure what you mean about taking the plaudits???

Yep, because 5th is a real bummer isn't it?

Yep, you have to be a really crap manager to keep a team in the top 6 in the Premiership.

Thanks BTF - best Christmas present I could have!!!

Thanks KRG and Whitey. It has been a difficult year but she does seem brighter now and keen to get herself better, which is a big part of the battle.

Bloody luxury. We used to wear crotch length iron boots with studs screwed to the soles of our feet.

This makes uncomfortable reading and I would never try to justify these deaths. There is still a difference in planning a raid in cold blood that will massacre children.

Nearly 2015 and a large percentage of mankind still acts as if we are still cavemen. All evolution seems to have done is to allow us to kill each other more efficiently.

I am not going to defend the drone policy but there is a difference between a remotely operated bomb missing its target and walking into a building and shooting a bunch of unarmed kids isn't there?

There isn't much choice when you go into a pub but need to lay off the booze if you don't like sweet or fizzy drinks. Huge gap in the market I would say.

As you say CB, it is all about the 5 years and maintaining power again so we get little or nothing in the way of long term planning and consistency.

They must be so proud of themselves. butchering a load of children.

It is one that the politicos constantly roll out though.

Just want to thank everyone who pm'd me with helpful advice and support when I first posted about this. I am please to say that my daughter is up to 50 kgs now and putting on a bit more weight each week. She is also about to start counselling and I have heard from my other daughters that the counsellor has my contact details and that I will be involved in the process. Still lots to do but I feel better about things and am so pleased that she is on the right track. Thanks again guys, you were a great help.

I agree about the Great British Public Pap. We are very good at moaning about things but not very good at getting things changed. The Poll Tax would be one of the few exceptions when people got motivated enough to stand up and be counted. It takes time for public opinion to make changes so we need people inside the system to do something about it. If the parties see it as a major election issue and put change at the top of their agenda that would be a start - but we know that none of them want to grasp the nettle because they are too afraid that financial institutions will leave The City and go abroad.

Isnt he just reinventing the wheel though Pap? We all know that there are inequalities in the system - there have been for years - and we can all spout off about it. It needs someone to actually take up the reins and do something.

It is going to take a lot more than either Bell or Brand to sort out the cancer within Parliament unfortunately.
