Yeh we should set an age limit and send them off to dignitas. Immigrants are net contributors to public services remember - without them we'd have less to spend on our aging population.

Re: EU Referendum

But you decided that? You decided that a social belief is suddenly the culture of the UK. How can that be the culture of a nation which has been formed by constant change, has expanded into new territories then contracted. That doesn't strike me as conservatism, at what point in the past did we sud...

Re: EURO 2016

Well when I was talking about our midfield 3 you suggested that Sturridge and Lallana would bring a spark to it? You did that - not me! We've obviously misunderstood each other then: I mentioned those players as they were the types of players who can bring a "spark" to the team, and I mentioned the...

Re: EURO 2016

I don't see how we fit those players in properly to balance the side out. Sterling best role for me is in the tip of the diamond but that's where I also think Lallana has to fit and Rooney. I don't see Townsend fitting in CM and I don't see Sturridge playing there either. My concern isn't that I th...

Re: EURO 2016

Yet more over-the-top negativity. Cahill is better than you're making out. You mention "spark" yet you've left out Sturridge, Sterling, Townsend, Lallana, and Rashford. You also talk about balance and these would help bring that. And of course you have "lingering concerns": you're an England fan, it...

Re: The threat of terrorism abroad.

Pretty obvious there will be a major terrorist attack in the future. That prediction has probably held true since humans have access to explosives, weapons and mass settlements.

Re: EURO 2016

I do find it peculiar that when it comes to England, people seem to be in competition as to who can be the most negative about the squad. Regardless of whether it's true or not, any squad announcement descends into a contest over who can criticise the most. It leads to utter guff, like in this thre...

Re: Work at Blackwell Meadows

What could they have done? Well make it part of the contract. If the cfootball share had been part of the contract, then if it was not provided there would be a remedy for breach of contract. Sadly, somebody dropped a bollock leaving Darlington saddled with debt needlessly. And if all else fails, m...

Re: EURO 2016

Hodgson has also always been pretty clear that the players who got us through qualifying deserved to go to the tournament, so it's no surprise to see Milner, Llallana, etc in the squad over the likes of Antonio, Noble, Carroll etc. Also, Michael Antonio isn't particularly a youngster in footballing...

I am sure I put in my post that I am not sure Roy had that many other options - my point was more the squad strength is really poor. I don't dispute there aren't many other options available. Give me a break. I've been watching England properly since Euro 96. I can't think of a worse squad in terms...
