Intervention in Syria was pretty late in the day though when it looked as if ISIS might topple Assad. Not saying early intervention would have been the right answer but it’s hard to see how it could have made matters much worse than they are now. Intervention can work e.g. it worked in the...

Not a popular view but I think it’s very debatable whether he got it wrong! Saddam had been putting two fingers up to the international community for years and the consensus at the time was that he certainly did have WOMD. You’ve only got to look at the extraordinary and ongoing mess that is...

Wish he’d score for us occasionally too! Most of his efforts end up in Bennetts Field..... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Interesting idea and perhaps the least worst option BUT you’d still be faced with many of the problems that bedevilled the first referendum. The Government “deal” with the EU will, no doubt, run to several hundred pages (at least) and distilling it into something comprehensible to most people...

Similar speeds to you but usually go for HD. Will try SD. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Have recently installed Redbox so can access some of these channels but I get a lot of problems with buffering. Is this normal? Don’t think my broadband is great but can’t get fibre yet so can’t really do much about that. Any other suggestions or should I expect this problem as normal? Sent...

Knockaert definitely got his mojo back. Looks really dangerous again..... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Glad I’m not the only one baffled by some of the action. Still enjoying it and keen to see Negan get his comeuppance but there seems to be little attempt to provide credible explanations for events e.g. how did the Saviors get out of Sanctuary, how did the Alexandrians manage to pack up and get...

All in favour of choice and would support a standing area for that reason alone but don’t really get the “atmosphere” argument. I can remember watching many games on the terraces in the “good old days” in the sixties and seventies but my abiding memory is of the pushing and shoving to get...

Michelle Dewberry. She’s frequently on Sky News offering opinions on topics she clearly knows nothing about and her voice drives me nuts. Instant turn off when I see her...... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Could say the same of the misses from Propper and Izquierdo. Need to put away chances like that at this level.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can’t see what Stephens would have added to the performance? We lost because we weren’t sharp enough in front of goal despite having several good chances. Whatever Stephens’ attributes (and I do rate him) he’s really not a playmaker putting in the killer pass or scoring goals. I thought...

I noticed that too. Murray’s hardly a shrinking violet going for headers but was blatantly wrestled to the ground several times by Morgan without any action from the ref.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Spot on. Murray has done extremely well with patchy service, compared with the other premier league top scorers (all in top four clubs apart from Vardy, I think). Midfield has contributed almost (?) no goals and, as for the number of set pieces that have ballooned over the top from...

Blimey, didn’t think I’d ever see Occam’s Razor quoted on NSC! I bow to your interpretation of the proposition in this context....... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Pretty much as I saw it but would have given MOTM to Gross today. Thought he was at the heart of pretty much all our good play.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Agree but don’t really see Locadia as a winger. He looked pretty uncomfortable there and drifted around quite a lot. Although March looked better today he’s been pretty poor most of this season and don’t think he really rates a starting position on current form. Think we missed AK today. I...

About time this thread was banned! People pay their money and are entitled to leave/stay as they like, in my book. They have a myriad of reasons, I’m sure, but I really don’t care. More importantly, I don’t think it’s any of my business. Perhaps others would care to explain why they care? But...

What really sticks in my throat and this applies to many areas of sport and life generally is the endless soul searching and grovelling apologies. It’s amazing (?) how rarely people admit voluntarily to ball tampering, diving, drug taking etc.....! You’re only sorry you did it because you were...

Pity they don’t insist that all tracks are designed/adjusted to allow more overtaking. There were just two overtakes in Australia last year and it wasn’t much better this year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
