Katie's Final Rallying Call

'If you do decide to vote remain be very clear. You have no right to complain you can't get a doctor's appointment or a place in primary school. In four years' time, all primary schools will be full. You have no right to a view on the dearth of housing or the strain on the NHS. Because you sided wi...

The European Union: In or Out?

madgull By the way, the EU aren't stupid, if they make it seem like countries can just break away willy-nilly and then get everything they want without being part of the EU, they're inviting the organisation to fall apart. madgull is right on this point, as what sort of judgement would it pass on th...

Fan behaviour to cost next season

The Trust haven't been mincing their words in recent months. Hopefully we'll hear them speak out loud and clear on this issue shortly.

Credit where credit is due..

Isn't it funny how we seem to remember things differently. I thought Marsh looked completely uninspired under Cox's management, and the fact that he only played one full game under Cox underlined for me that Cox didn't have much faith in him either. Whereas under Nico's management we saw Marsh come ...

The European Union: In or Out?

I think the Government will probably try to ride this one out, and hope that within a week the loss of steel jobs will no longer be on the front pages and there'll be other things to talk about. Even today, with a little help from Ronnie Corbett, it's slipping down the page. To put nationalisation i...

The European Union: In or Out?

That seems slightly disingenuous, doesn't it? The campaign on either side will probably focus on 'scare tactics'. It's definitely true that neither side has a complete monopoly on 'scare tactics', but I think it's generally accepted that it's a ploy more suited to one side of the argument than the ...

New Stadium-The Willows

While in theory a new stadium might be capable of holding 6000, the Safety Advisory Group will be able to knock that down to 4000 in the blink of an eye. And if they're really determined 3500. It will be important to start as we mean to go on, and telling the SAG where to stick their advice will be ...

New Stadium-The Willows

I expect that the American company will be making their money from the new houses to be built. The economics of the situation probably mean that there's every likelihood that this will proceed. I imagine that it goes without saying that TUST will be demanding a guarantee that there will be no attemp...

Kevin Nicholson has his say..

forevertufc And before anyone says, yes there's an old saying "pay peanuts get monkeys" however Dino Maamria appears to have got the monkeys he took over at Southport and achieved 16 points out of 18. He's doing well at Southport isn't he. But the circumstances at the two clubs could be ve...

Has the world gone nuts?

Although it was initially Gullscorer's opening call encouraging European bureaucrats to trample on fundamental and long cherished rights that drew opposition, there's no reason why the separate consideration regarding the commercial implications of discontinuing meat pie sales can't also be held, an...
