Re: Today I'm angry about.....
Of course the Fed reps could be influenced by the fact that they are police officers and work in an atmosphere of closing ranks and lying to cover each other's backs and generally getting away with it. Being Fed reps probably makes them feel even more untouchable than their colleagues.

Re: What are you watching tonight?
Last night I watched Clio Barnard's 'The Arbor', a sort of dramatised documentary account of the life and death of Bradford playwright Andrea Dunbar. She famously wrote the play 'Rita, Sue and Bob Too', upon which the film was based and died of a brain haemmorhage aged 29. It's brilliantly made , t...

Re: Times when you really wish you had the money
Fair enough if they want to sell them, they'll go somewhere they'll be valued and they've got no-one to pass them on to. How about passing them on to the general public by selling them to the National Football Museum? They might not have made as much but it's the only way to ensure that they'll go ...

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
I don't have a problem with unions in theory, just a strong disdain for many of the self-interested lot who run them. i'm embarrassed as a teacher by some of the rubbish the teaching unions come out with. There are many good points to make about the complete nob that is Gove but they seems to manage...

Re: Mears frozen out !!
Sounds about right to me, not on bench, not injured, not seen since the Blackburn defeat. I think he was indentified as the main culprit there. Knight and Wheater made mistakes, but he just didn't look arsed. He's the onlt one to have remained sidelined since then. i could have sritten that article ...

Are you a GP?! That's what I was told after my first spate of injuries 24 years ago. He was probably right in hindsight.
