Re: Hendrick

Excellent game today. Felt sorry for Defour, he just isn't a winger. He doesn't have the pace to make space to get a cross in, and we don't have anyone to play triangles with him to make the space. Completely wasted through no fault of his own. Despite Hendricks great game I think we would have been...

Re: The state of the NHS

SC, seems an entirely reasonable suggestion to me. As you say there needs to be radical change for the long term rather than short term decision making for political reasons. Making changes is half the problem. Each government moves the goal posts after every budget. A change of government and the ...

Re: Burnley worth buying

Nobody puts their money in a business without having to want some say in how it is spent.

Outside that all clubs should be made to operate within their...
