    I saw a story about a young lad (QPR I think) who was taken to an away match to manage the kit, only to find that Wilkins was giving him his debut.
    RW also arranged for his family to be there to witness his first start.
    Seems like he was a genuine, genuine person.

    Generally I think its more effective strategy not to tell the enemy when and how you are planning to attack them.

    Unless of course you’ve already kinda agreed something with them.

    Please take the time to listen to the logical and eloquent thoughts of Peter Ford regarding this utter lunacy with Syria.

    Spot on. Very little (if any) unbiased evidence about these attacks. I also really like the question he asks about why Assad would risk international condemnation by doing this when he's already winning.

    Our record on these sort of interventions is pretty shocking and I'm really not sure why we're involved at all. As far as I can see there are no "good guys" in Syria.

    Thanks for the video LTL :emoticon-0148-yes:

    People may take issue with some of what he says but it's largely true and should raise some very important discussions.
    His point about certain media failing and in some cases flat out lying is a huge factor surrounding Syria and it's problems.
    I don't however agree with his Armageddon statement as that's hugely unlikely imo, but I suppose we'll just have to wait and see.

    Ah yes, I forgot to mention that. I did chuckle slightly at his first couple of statements. Talking about Armageddon in your first sentence and then complaining about hysteria in your second is a somewhat... odd approach. He’s mainly talking sense though.

    Given the previous history between Trump and Putin, with suspicions having been raised as to whether or not Russia assisted Trump in gaining the Presidency, there is a part of me thinking that these two sociopaths are staging this for their own political and financial benefit.

    I'm just going to post this again.



    I think I stole it from somebody on this forum but there's no more accurate political commentator out there.

    Avast is probably the best bet at the moment. Good, clean interface and fairly easy to use.
    It also offers a lot under it's free version and it's simple to uninstall if it slows your phone down too much.
