We await impatiently to find out what his policies will be.

This is daftness though as they will be replaced by others moving into their age group. And apparently we aren’t breeding at the required rate for population equilibrium .

Really enjoyed watching Turkey play, their right winger Yilmaz is right footed which makes him unusual as all our wingers cut inside to shoot with their left. Refreshing to see a team going for it, right to the […]

A second Thin Lizzy fan, I only found this place when Google pointed to a discussion of the band. Confession time; I have never read The Word, I did used to get Melody Maker and then Sounds when Gary Bushell was […]

Failing to bring a fit Left Back was an early clue that there could be problems.

I still haven’t forgiven him for summer 81. I was recuperating and my dad visited, said Leeds had signed Lineker £250,000. I found out later it was Linighan £25,000.

Gary Lineker is a real trooper in the cause of equality, asking Alex Scott to explain the football to him. He will have earned his Nithood.

Well I’m not religious, but I’d prefer it if other people were. Sounds ridiculous though there was a time when it seemed that I was pushed in that direction; and those people doing the pushing, they aren’t around […]

No-one seems to want hymns anymore. The Lord’s my Shepherd for me.

I’ve had to argue myself at the cost of treatment in a foreign hospital. Frankly, being seen promptly beats free at the point of access.

Reform of the NHS should be a priority. The idea that it’s “the envy of the world” is so far from the truth.

Norway has been astute with it’s oil wealth.

The problems of the NHS need to be solved from within

Ofwat, the public sector department set up to regulate-has failed quite plainly
