Jeremy Corbyn is an atheist. He does not believe in God, never mind Sainthood, yet he promises a largely atheist country that it can have Saint George's Day as a Bank Holiday. Is this an attempt to make Catholicism (since only Catholics honour the Saints, and we do it daily) "for the many, not...

Every chance that he will turn them into Fleetwood Kak…

If only Murray had tampered with the ball before he took his penalty on Saturday, the ball would have been aimed to Schmeichel’s left, Schmeichel would have guessed correctly, and then watched helplessly as the ball reverse-swung to his right. That would have given the pundits something to talk...

If you want to dig up ancient history...the Tories had a Jewish prime minister, in the 19th century, and Margaret Thatcher had a lot of Jews in her cabinet and government. But the past is not the issue here. The issue is the views of the man (and those of his acolytes) who would be leader of...

Meanwhile, the Palace fans who did much worse at the Amex continue to attend football matches unhindered.

What action has been taken by Crystal Palace FC and the police to punish supporters who forced their way into the Amex, without tickets, and who let off fireworks in the away end? I refer to the behaviour of a sizeable element of the away team’s support during and after the game in November. I...

Storm Emma has run into the Beast from the East, with the result that snow is falling heavily in Oxford now and is unlikely to stop in a hurry.

I accept that the weather knocked a couple of thousand off the attendance on Tuesday night, but the reason for my post was to highlight the divergence in fortunes of the two clubs, especially given how the Royals used to lord it over us during the Withdean years (even though we beat them to the...

The attendance for the Hull v Barnsley game last night was 14,000, and I believe that the weather was no better up there.

The attendance at the Madejski last night was 6,769. And to think that they once (in March 2002) sang to us: "What's it like to see a crowd?"

I visit friends in both Krakow and Florence. My friend in Krakow takes me to Cracovia Krakow games, so I follow them, and my friend in Florence takes me to Fiorentina games, so they are my Italian team. In April, I will move to Brno, to be with my fiancée, so I will start going to Zbrojovka Brno...

What I have written about Corbyn is not twaddle. It is the truth.

Did they vote for him in spite of his avowed Marxism or because of it?

You do not have to be right-wing to be sceptical about Corbyn. Lots of people in his own party loathe him.

Perhaps you would care to answer my question above?

What conclusions should I draw from the Marxist Jeremy Corbyn’s extolling the virtues of Venezuela (“They do things differently there: it’s called socialism.”) and his eulogising (on the Andrew Marr Show recently) the Chinese Great Leap Forward, a programme that caused the deaths of tens of...

Alternatively, he might say: “West Ham are the biggest shower of shite we’ve played all season, and I expect us to turn them over just as easily this time round.”

I tell you what else would not happen at Selhurst. Albion fans would not kick in the doors or jump the turnstiles at Selhurst: one, because we are too nice; and, two, because if the doors were kicked in the Arthur Waite Stand would collapse. By the way, what action has your chairman taken to...

Konza would only go into the DS and disappear into the football equivalent of the Bermuda Triangle with all the other young players that we have signed and have never been seen again. What happened to the highly-rated centre-back that we signed from Motherwell? What has happened to the Czech...

Is he the new Johnny Crumplin?
