How can you know punctuation makes anyone mad, apart from yourself?

With so many players unavailable, England looked really good today. Nigel Owens I think made a couple of poor decisions for a ref considered to be the best. I hope he doesn't believe his own publicity. The AB's will be better next week but I imagine England can be too. One thing for certain is that England are serious WC contenders next year. With home advantage they should win it given the players they have. 4/1 at the moment.

Why not?

Should it not be 'make's one mad'?

I think the odds often tell you that. MM didn't mislead anyone.

What was he wondering about?

We know why now unfortunately.

Deranged? What if the child wasn't abducted? What do you think might have happened?

How massive would this force be?

If I was allergic to whiskey, I might well be dead now. Thankfully (for me at least), I'm not.

Strange. Given that 6 of Real Madrid's 10 European Cup wins were prior to '67, I was pointing out that Celtic have a European stature that most clubs don't have. Rangers come to mind. Anyway, who said it has to be a well known manager? Whoever it is, he'll be well known to himself!

I think SB forgot one: Celtic 2 Inter Milan 1

I wasn't particularly interested in this case anymore than your average Joe Soap. However I looked up stats on missing/abducted kids in the UK and the number is a lot, yet we rarely hear about them. Maybe for a few days in some cases. However on this site there was a link which caught my attention. It was the 48 questions that Mrs McCann refused to answer when questioned by the police and the 1 question she did answer. This made me question my own assumption that the child was abducted that most on here seem to assume. I've been in the situation where my son at that age went 'missing' in East Dulwich. I drove around like a lunatic trying to find him. As it turned out the little bugger was hiding at home. So I'm not at all unsympathetic to one losing a child in any circumstances. I disagree with leaving kids unattended in the way they did but I understand you can't wrap them up in cotton wool either. When my son was a kid he broke his arm falling off something in the kids playground in Dulwich Park. I don't blame myself for that. But that was not the case here. I don't have any particular feeling about the McCann's, but I now think that the child may not have been abducted. When I was a babbie, one of many in my family, I'm told an old trick to get us to sleep was to let us suck a finger after dipping it in a glass of whiskey. Not very correct but those were different times. What might a doctor have done to get the same result?

Don't you think there is the possibility she wasn't abducted and one or the other of the parents were physically responsible for her 'death'? They could have given the kids something to make sure they slept. Maybe something went wrong with what was given to Madeleine.

If it's still bright I suppose you could clean windows regardless of it being 7.30. If fact I suppose more people are likely to be at home then which makes some sense. If he got as far as asking you for money upfront he was probably a chancer.

In this country it is against the law to leave toddlers unattended at home. Perhaps if they were from a 'poor' family they might have had their other kids taken in by social services (if it happened in this country). If the child was abducted they must have suffered enough but if they killed her, that's different.

They are guilty of neglect, full stop.

Heh.

http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,1332912 You've not read this then? I thought I did well. Can't keep it up though. The cavalry arrived.

That's what it was. A supposed 'scandal'.

No. I asked a question and I don't read everything you write so didn't know what rights you have or don't have. I suppose if it was a doctor who wrote the post you'd advise against using him on the basis of what he writes about gardners?

So you deleted it?

Is a moderator behind this? When one poster asked after reading the post, would you buy a guitar from this man, one wondered how he would know the person sold guitars, as was implied. Though the opening post has been reposted what happened to the other one which had a few comments on it, all of them deleted. Is this a scandal or an abuse of power? Who deleted the thread and why?

Would pride for representing your > nation not override such matters? http://www.theguardian.com/football/2002/may/28/worldcupfootball2002.sport14 This was written after Keane decided to stay. It's worth a read. What happened next was at a team meeting the manager brought up the article and asked Keane to explain certain things in front of the squad. If it wasn't for that Keame would have stayed but waving a red rag in front of him lit his short fuse and from all the accounts I've read he exploded into a 10 minute rant. Given the complex character Keane is, it probably wasn't McCarthy's best move unless he really wanted to get rid of him. So all in all, I don't blame him for walking away. On a lighter note I heard McAteer tell a story of what happened after the rant when Keane had left. It was completely silent for a while then McCarthy asked the group if anyone had anything to say. I think it was Dean Kiely the 3rd choice goalkeeper who put his his hand up. Yes Dean. Boss,if you need anyone to play in midfield I'd be happy to.
