It's not even especially relevant to the discussion really. People of that generation had the ability to buy social housing they were renting for a small price. They also had access to final salary pensions. Kids these days don't have those options, so even if they have managed to get...

Just to add my two'pennorth. I think Simms is better musically but Godden is more influential and I'd play Oasis up front until the inevitable meltdown and then bring in Blur.

I wouldn't say I didn't rate him, but I definitely feel he is/was thought or more highly than he deserved. He was no more than average for all but his last season and his set pieces were the same shite pretty much every time - floated to the near post. Often his thinking was above that of his...

I agree to a point. You should be able to leave your family with a roof over their head and food on the table. But when it gets into vast fortunes I disagree - no-one should be given that amount of wealth and privilege just because of who they're related to. Trouble is the current system is...

You've already told us that your daughter lived with you rent free so not comparable with the average person who has rent etc to pay.

Of course you can be happy about that, and want the same opportunities for yourself, your children and other people in general. But it is an unfortunate fact at this moment that they had those opportunities and the current generation don't. And it's likely the future generations will have even...

While they have earned it, they'll have also had conditions that were favourable that you never will. More affordable housing, final salary pensions etc. The post war generation have had it pretty sweet overall in comparison to other generations.

Tories and capitalism.

I'd like to see Simms and Wright together, but at the same time I think it would be silly to drop Godden while he's scoring. I think what would be ideal is to bring Simms on for Godden if we're comfortably ahead, but the chances of that are slim. Another option is to bring him on for Godden if...

But then you have the argument that removing it gives Russia a chance to regroup and regain an initiative and we end up back where we started.

I'm sure it did, but if it were my team I'd be saying the first opportunity go down with a head injury and we'll spend 4-5 minutes 'treating it' and reduce the amount of time they have the advantage. Do you really think that isn't what professional club s would do?

I'm looking forward to singing "You're going home in a f****** ambulance"

Was that Elliott or Danny?

But as I say how would you prevent the other team wasting as much of that 8-10mins? We already have the ball out of play enough as it is. Having teams deliberately try to time waste even more isn't going to help. That's why it works in things like ice hockey.

I spent ages trying to work out the cryptic message. At first I thought is was some short of wry comment that what I'd said had no relevance to the conversation.

I think as long as it's balanced and doesn't tip over into thinking we are exceptional just because of the country we're from. That way leads to dangerous nationalist lunatics and can prevent you from improving as you will not even consider another country'd way of life in superior is one...

A week of high twenties compared to a few weeks well into the 30's and touching 40 last year. Yeah, we've got away with it cos the gulf stream kept the hot air above Europe until we were naturally starting to cool down due to shorter days. If it acts like normal next year this summer is going to...

We pretty much have. It's been hot the last few days but with the days getting shorter it's nowhere near as bad as it could've been had it been a month ago. Imagine living on the continent during this summer!
