Rafa Benitez on why he could not possibly be trying to tap up Dirk Kuyt : "I am the coach and I cannot sign players ? that is for the technical director and the chairman," he said. "I am fine like this ? I can focus on my work on the pitch and that is all. I am the coach, not the manager."

I think he has some limitations. But he deserves his chance at a bigger club, Steve McLaren got the England job on the back of getting to the Uefa Cup Final and Roy Hodgson got the Liverpool job for his success.


Not sure about Villa punching their weight under O Neill. No mention of Leicester, who will never see the same success again.


If you compare Gordon Strachan to Martin O Neill you did not watch Celtic during these times. Worlds apart.


blah blah blah ...

Tough draw for the Bears, but to be honest we're only there for the readies. ?14million again this year will do very nicely.


Looks like Celtic might not even get through tonight 2-0 down at half time. p.s MM - the SPL winner next year doesn't get automatic qualification to the Group Stages of the CL... think we go into the qualifiers straight away.

I vaguely remember being in Kebab & Wine at 4 a.m. one Thursday night many moons ago..


After listening to this pantomime of evasion maybe it is not such a surprise after all that no one in football has had a good word to say about Rafa Benitex since his sacking from Liverpool - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/europe/8947916.stm

Rafa not surprising me in the slightest there.


So it's City and Liverpool on the Thursday night slog round Europe, playing Sunday every week to play catch up with those around them... Regardless of how they get on in the Champs League it's the playing Tuesday/Wednesday so OK for league games on Saturday which is the big win for Spurs this week.

Aww...they didn't even give you a run for your money. Who are you backing next Mac? Just so I can bet against it.

    • @Sue the Green's campaign video showing Keir Starmer shaking hands with Modi and David Lammy shaking hands with Netanyahu is one such example.  As I say, I don't know the organisation, but I would expect election observers to only report after polls have closed. To do otherwise could be perceived as interfering in the election. They might need to check patterns across multiple polling stations. Any public criticism by an independent observer mid-poll could discourage participation and could be interpreted as campaigning. Much safer / more robust to check observations and release after the event.  Sorry - those posts merged. Not intended.   
    • Could you be more specific as to how "the Greens have practiced this on a far more significant scale in Gorton and Denton"? How exactly did they "try to exploit ethic tensions"?
    • I think the accusation derives from the Greens mobilising the Muslim vote, hence engaging in sectarian politics. But happy to be corrected    
    • But the democracy volunteers don’t seem to report their concerns until the voting closed.
