Toure's international teammate disagrees with him. This from the Beeb's website: A club statement read: "Having carefully studied the video of the game, we found no racist insults from fans of CSKA." Spokesman Michael Sanadze told BBC Radio 5 live: "We have nothing to hide, of course, and we have confirmation from the match delegate and the venue director that they themselves didn't hear anything special." The Russian side's own Ivory Coast player, striker Seydou Doumbia, added: "I didn't hear anything like that from the CSKA fans. "Yes, they're always noisy in supporting the team and try to put as much pressure as possible on our opponents, but they wouldn't ever allow themselves to come out with racist chants. "So my Ivory Coast colleague is clearly exaggerating."

Rangers announce ?14.4M losses for 13 month period to end of June. What did they spend that on?

Thanks Alec1 for your reply. The fact is I don't know if I should say to by brother he should consider refusing to do it. He knows her best in some respects but perhaps there is an element of fear too that she may take off and he may never see her again. It's possibly too easy for me to offer advice when I'm in a different country and don't have to deal with the reality of the situation. She is not my daughter and I hardly know her. He has a lot on his plate with his wife's condition and my instinct is to tell him to stop subsidising her whims.

I'd be dangerous if I knew anything about horses!

Wonder if anyone has any views on this situation. My niece (who was the reason I started this thread) would appear to have no problem in draining my brother's financial resources (he's retired). He's also dealing with his wife having cancer and appears to me to appease his daughter simply to maintain a relationship with her. Not too long ago she wouldn't even speak to him and accused him of some horrible things on Facebook. Part of me wants to tell him that he shouldn't be doing this (the fact he has mentioned it suggests he can ill afford it), but I suspect he is unwilling to do that for fear of 'losing' her. She is in her mid thirties. Have any of you come across a similar situation? I'm particularly interested in views of how my BP niece might react to being told the well is dry.

Some fantastic goals by the Arse yesterday. What makes football worth watching.

In this joke the monkey is the clever one. The only people who might be offended are those who relate monkey's to black people (I suppose). Whoever reported this to the Sun is a fool. As for Roy telling the joke, it wouldn't have been up there with what I'd imagined goes on in a dressing room at HT.

Me too with the 2-2.

Have you looked at the racing competition recently? I had the first two. I think I did well and I had an ew bet on Top Notch Tonto today. Perhaps RD can publish the results here?

The speling on dis tred had gon downhil.

That fella used to play in goals didn't he? Was it for France?

Shock horror. Foreigner scores for England.

Thanks for the info everyone.

Can anyone advise me please? Websites, tv, radio, twitter, print. Anything else? Young Medic needs to learn what's happening in the world or what might happen.

I didn't think you would be.................now ????'s, you know how to PM? I'll send you instructions if needs be.

Frankly RD, I think the only way to presuade ????'s to return would be if you missed a week too in sympathy.

Well if that's the case would you mind PM'ing your predictions to me? I'll use them!

You can easily make your predictions anytime during the week. Anyway, I need you to stay in as you seem to be the man to beat with so many correct scores. I'm sure you have a formula which given time I might crack! Keep playing.

Are you saying Mick you've never added to your original investment (apart from winnings)?

It's a long season. You won't be the only one to forget.

One interesting fact regarding the fixtures Woolwich have played this season in the PL is that they gained 3 points more from them last season. That could be construed as taking a backward step but I wouldn't say that. I was going to congratulate PD on getting through a series of posts without using the word 'unproven' but alas he let me down.

I don't understand at all why Rio is being played so much. Evans is a much improved player than a couple of seasons ago and Rio has looked like he's feeling it (playing so many games). Also Jones by most accounts should be a centre half but rarely gets played there. Nani is a waste of space to me and I'd like to see Zaha given a go. I thought Ashley Young was a good buy initially but he hasn't come up with the goods. The one positive is that Rooney is playing well and perhaps he is being helped by the more intense training sessions. In a perverse way it's sort of good to be talking about United having problems as all the ABU's are delighted. I'm looking forward to seeing how Moyes gets it right.

I think he's talking about Hamilton.
