I aksed if the fact that she hadn't heeded warnings may have been a factor, not the overriding reason. Perhaps I should have explained myself with greater clarity, I hope I've now done so.

Having read about this case and having listened to many radio, and TV broadcasts about this unfortunate lady, I can't make up my mind about it. Was she an unlucky victim or should she have been there in the first place because she had received warnings about her decsion to go out there. Views?

Sorry I don't buy into that. I watch a lot of football at all levels, it is abundantly clear to me that the Prem is some way behind the levels of technical ability than that on display in La liga, Serie A and to a lesser degree the Bundesliga. I would rather watch any two teams play each other in La Liga because of the skill, talent, technical ability on display, than watch say the likes of Bolton play Wolves. The difference in the levels of said skills is huge. Sad but true, and I take no pleasure in saying this. Blaming foreigners is nonsense, it is nothing more than a smokescreen used to hide the English games shortcomings.

SWP, Bentley among those that failed to live up to their own hype.

More realistic than dogmatic I would suggest.

Youth investment, decent coaching and development at grass root level is the problem, not foreign players. If anything young players gain invaluable experience from playing with many of the foreign imports. And if our young players were good enough there'd be no need for imports. Also, as soon as a decent young English player becomes available, the price sky rockets. It is no wonder that managers prefer the option of going abroad for their purchases.

Unfortunately passion, and money mean nothing if the players on the pitch are pedestrian, and most of the starting 11 last night are not much above that level. Money is probably part of the problem. Many of our pampered millionaires don't really give monkeys about national football. Anyone for a bet on Terry being for for the next Prem game? England seems to persist with a deluded notion that they have some kind of devine right to be up amongst the best and aren't. I wonder how long it will be before the enlightened pundits of Sky, BBC, ITV et al blame it on the influx of foreign players.

When Engalnd finally wake up to the fact that they are no longer a force in International footabll, they will become far less disappointed with results such as the one from last night. Scotland game was better to watch, but the scoreline flattered the home side. Had the Spanish been more clinical, it should have been 2 or 3 nil by half time. Anyway, a side with Darren Fletcher on the losing side is always a plus. It looks likely that the Italians will win their game 3 nil by default after their game was abandoned due to crowd trouble, caused amostly by Serbian fans apparently. Roll on Saturday and back to the real business of the Prem.

Good point, well made.

Could be worse could've been Spurs, only kidding, great news, I hope they all come out safely.

So De Jong faces the possibility of Legal action? If I remember rightly, Paul Elliot tried this against Dean Saunders after being on the receiving end of career ending tackle and he lost, in more ways than one.

If thats the case, do you think gays and Indian people would find "It ain't half hot mum" funny or offensive?

Liverpool facing the possibility of a 9 point deduction?? Can't see it myself.
