    Off Topic The Politics Thread

    , I would imagine you are right sb , MOST of us are better than that, but as we've seen at the Euros it only takes a vocal minority to spoil it for everyone else. A million people turned out for the Stop the War protests all those year ago, a minority in terms of the overall population but...

    Off Topic The Politics Thread

    I've not read the whole of this but has anyone wondered at any point, that whatever the outcome, how can our parliament continue to function with integrity when there are so many politicians (some form the same parties) that so vehemently disagree with each other? There's potential for some huge...

    Off Topic Adam Johnson gets six years

    If we go down the route of "if it were my daughter" I'd like to think I'd instill a better moral compass in my 15 year old so she doesn' tthink bagging a footballer is the be all and end all of life and therefore ending up in a compromising position in the first place.......

    Off Topic Adam Johnson gets six years

    Harsh imo. should he of known better, yes. Has he done wrong, yes. But to label hIm a peado/nonce , a term I think applies to kiddie fiddlers is a bit ott. I think he's been made an example of because of who he is. Real peados get a lot less for a lot worse.

    Adam Johnson

    An interesting debate. It might also be interesting to compare his sentence once it is handed out to that of a few FEMALE high school teachers who have recently been convicted of sexual relations with their 14/15 year old pupils and let off with nothing more than a slap on the wrist. The general...

    Off Topic Star Wars fever

    Off Topic In Memoriam - Dead Pubs

    It won't mean much to you guys since its outside of London but The Rose and Crown in Congleton was where I grew up drinking. It was a proper pub, with lock ins, smoking indoors (!) , pool tables, jukeboxes and darts and held many a happy memory for me. Its where I met my Wife to be 15 years ago...

    Off Topic Bosley Memorial Match

    Going to watch a charity memorial match today at Macclesfield Town FC for the victims of the Bosley wood treatment disaster which some of you may remember in the news where a local to me wood treatment plant exploded killing four, displacing several families whose houses were badly damaged and...
