    Sarah Champion

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-40886658 Political suicide or about bloody time someone stood up and said it? Whatever you might think, she's shown more "balls" than most other MP's so if only for that, I say good on her.

    Credit and debit card surcharges to be banned

    One of my pet hates is when I get charged a surcharge for paying for something by Credit or Debit card. So this latest gem was music to my ears. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-40648641 One short extract from the link made me really glad that we're leaving the EU (allegedly). We won't have...

    The new Doctor Who to be a woman

    For those of you who are interested the 13th Time Lord will be Jodie Whittaker. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-40624288 I haven't watched the program for a very long time so I don't have a view one way or the other.

  7. Tony Blair could face prosecution.

    Some of you may not know that Tony Blair is immune from prosecution over the Iraq war. Along with Jack Straw and Lord Goldsmith who were the foreign secretary and attorney general at the time. A private prosecution was blocked a while ago but apparently the decision will be reviewed. Though I...

    Safe standing

    Shrewsbury have become the first English club to apply for safe standing. Great news and hopefully this is the start of safe standing in England. The tide definitely seems to be turning in favour of it, and rightly so.

    Finsbury Park Mosque: Man dies as van hits pedestrians

    This is the BBC headline this morning. A man has died and eight people have been injured after a van ploughed into pedestrians near a north London mosque. Far too early to confirm a reason but hate crime looks a possibility. We are living in a very sad world at the moment. RIP to the deceased...

    Should 45 minute halves be scrapped

    A proposal to scrap 45-minute halves is to be looked at by football's lawmakers to deter time-wasting. Instead, there could be two periods of 30 minutes with the clock stopped whenever the ball goes out of play. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/40311889 There's a poll for you to vote on...

    u21 squad for Euro Championships

    http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/40158863 Not one but two ex-loanees amongst the forwards but the name that stands out is ex-youth teamer and son of Dominic Iorfa, Dominic Iorfa. Surely Alfie Mawson if that's the guy who was at Wycombe is older than 21?

    New club website

    What are your views on the new club website? It is clearly a basic model for all clubs with our own details put in to try to make it individual. Not overly impressed myself but as long as it works it will do me. I notice that Sue Page is shown as a contact for the Commercial Department. Has she...

    Diving bans: Football Association expected to approve retrospective action

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39962886 Long overdue as far as I'm concerned. Name 'em and shame 'em, assuming that the latter is actually possible. Hopefully as this progresses previous suspensions will be considered when meting out new ones, and repeat offenders will rapidly reach a...
