    I still can't work out why fatty insists on sending out a free oversized mug to every mail orderer.
    It's borderline harassment now cos I hate the bloody things.
    If I shop instore I always get asked if I want a really big 'bag for life' plastered in the corporate logo... I simply tell them I want no bag at all and pop it in another bag as I don't want to be a walking billboard for tubbs.

    I haven't shopped at Sports Direct for over two years. It has nothing to do with the way MA runs NUFC though. I do my utmost not to give a penny to a company who exploits so many people on zero hour contracts. I didn't need Dave Miller Band to tell me that they are immoral and exploitative.

    I don't agree with zero hour contracts at all. I do recognise that in some industries they may be helpful to the employer as some have said on here before but with a General Election coming up I would have hoped that a prospective PM might have done a bit more homework before making "a holier than thou pronouncement".

    Doesn't really augur well for Milliband's future

    He is useless to be honest and was only elected out of spite against Blair/Brown. I am at a loss to find a decent one to vote for. It's disgraceful the way that all parties have contributed to the eroding of basic working rights.
