 You do tend to be blind to the good in foreign people don't you?

Because, had he been caught and convicted at the time, he would now be free under the terms of the Good Friday agreement?

And no, I don't condone either what he did, or any other crimes of violence to gain whatever end.

She also loved Les Kellett, Leon Arras, (TV actor Brian Glover), Jackie Pallo and others.

I used to have all their autographs as a kid, that she got me.

Black on white? I think not. Is there any such thing in UK2013?

And whilst I agree with you both IN PRINCIPLE, it WOULD be nice to see a few Muslim leaders and Muslim clerics actually condemning these people and distancing themselves, their community and their religion from acts like these.

They seem slow to do so. A deafening silence I think?

"Do the big clubs care? No. They increasingly have academies and the scouting networks to find and nurture the best talent from all over the world. If the biggest clubs in the Premier League had their way they'd be playing in a European league, which is where the really big money is and why coming fourth now matters more than winning the Cup to them. "

Incidentally, it's not a "trickle-down economy", it's a fixed market. The fees don't reflect the fees which would be paid in a more efficient market and don't take account of the costs of production.

I have told him before not to let his laughable lack of height rile him.

Anybody know if he`s invested in a pair of cuban heels yet ?

"Surprisingly enough this is why the likes of SUFC will struggle because we simply don't have the critical-mass in terms of fanbase nor the glamour to attract much interest beyond the hard-core of supporters."

That is about supporters, lack of, not of millions of Sky pounds being distributed to village grass roots teams whether the village is near Manchester or here. It is akin to a trickle down economy. If there are little starlets out there then small clubs can have money to find them, develop them and what is more they are domestic.

That can then allow our clubs to have good players and that does trickle up to the bigger clubs after the smaller clubs can make money selling them.

We then get a decent National team, a level that has suffered because of Sky.

It has naff all to do with what Bucks has to have a dig at. Even he naffed off down south in lieu of employing people up here in his home town.

Hopefully in real society people pull together and don't let these murderers win.
 Lets nit call them terrorists this is a racist murder and should be treated as such.

I would doubt that. There are extremists in all ranks of society. If they turn they always were. Wed, 22 May 2013 19:48:41 +0100 http://boards.footymad.net/forum.php?tno=460&fid=376&act=1&mid=2112698050
