any death is not something to celebrate but Duggan had a gun, it wasn't a toy and he had it for some purpose that can only have been a dangerous one. Knowing that and with his past violence record, if he even flinched a muscle when stopped I am not surprised he was shot. If the police didn't...

as someone who gives conveyancing quotes daily, £2-£2.5k is definitely well above going rate for anywhere with a BN postcode - fee + disbursements (excluding stamp duty) should be £1-1.5k + VAT max so amazed if anyone quoting £2-£2.5k+ is vaguely generating clients if the clients have made...

good luck to Liam - handing in a transfer request is bog standard practice these days and it doesn't reflect any disrespect whatsoever to the club or to us supporters. It is simply a mechanism to help facilitate a move elsewhere and if anything it helps the club and TB as no-one can now say they...

£3 million is good business. He's a good player, given great service and Sunderland, even if they go down, are a big club so it is career progression for him.

a massive wake up call that all teams need refreshing regularly and no team, regardless of success, can ever stand still. We may have won at home last time but anyone whose not one-eyed knows the series was far closer than 3-0 and a vaguely half decent Aussie side should and would have won that...

B for me, steady effort overall, calmed the ship which was reeling badly with GP's departure and has made good use of an injury ravaged squad to keep us in touch with a promotional push. Can't fault him for injuries or fact that some of the players he has had to pick are at best 'ok' and would...

the reality is FFP will never stand up to any close scrutiny or a test legal case if a is club sanctioned too heavily - and when the financial rewards of the premiership are so high, potentially club changing, most teams will go for it and take the risk of a slap on the wrist - after all what's...

Zola perhaps?......

Mackay is a dead man walking - why Rogers thought it was sensible to make any comment on this is beyond me. He seriously overrates his influence if he thought saying this this might shame Tan into backing off the manager.

my money is on Mackay jumping before he is pushed - his agent will say resigning as his position untenable after owners comments thereby claiming 'constructively dismissed' as undermined freeing him up to take any other job offered. West Brom clearly an option but Big Sam should watch out, the...

I don't mind AVB but clearly he's being found out as not good enough again at the top end of the Premiership. I can see him doing well somewhere like West Brom or a Fulham where much less expectations and player egos a little less dominant, or in a foreign league but he's had 2 goes at the top...

did Cape Town one year - definitely different having Xmas lunch overlooking the sea in a t-shirt, eating a gigantic sea food platter and watching the annual Miss Christmas Cape Town bikini procession on the beach! About as different as cold old Blighty could be! Oh and by time back home the...

those that want to sing should put aside old memories of the North being the only stand to be 'seen' in and go to the South en masse where they can engage with the away fans far better. The north at the Amex is simply not the north at the Goldstone and never will be. Get that banter going with...

think if there is some honesty here, even at the playoff game at the Amex Palace's support was better than ours - not in terms of volume, they were outnumbered at least 10-1, but in constantly making noise all game and trying to lift their team. I don't know why but there is a real apathy at the...

in fairness, and as much as it is fun to take the *iss out of them and the gimmicks they have, Selhurst had a much better atmosphere last night than we've had in the Amex for a very long time....Tinpot or not, I can only remember a tiny number of games when the Amex has really been properly...

probably a no for me but if he gets them solid at back and gets Murray back and knocking them in, I can see them potentially being safe. Norwich, Sunderland and Fulham look in free fall, Hull could easily get stuck with too many draws as no goal threat so for me a yes or no clearer once Xmas...

English through and through and of course massive sympathy on a personal level for Trotty, he'll almost certainly not come back from this at the same level as a fundamental weakness is now known and any rival sportsman whose 'professional' will target any perceived weakness instantly - that's...

we have 3, maybe 4 players that are PLR ready and maybe 3/5 who could surprise us and make the jump up and be comfortable at that level. I actually quite like AB but he is definitely, like CMS, championship level at very best so even if he signs a new contract, he'll be a squad player once we...

this with bells on it - the best in town and a hidden gem

until they set a non negotiable rule that a breach (innocent or deliberate) of FFP rules means promotion will not be ratified in that year, clubs and owners (the majority) will always view financial penalties, however large, as a very small price to pay for getting to the Premiership and getting...
