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.

      Resident Doctors

      By ianr · Posted

      This week's edition of The Briefing Room I found really useful and impressively informative on the training aspect.  David Aaronovitch has come a long way since his University Challenge day. 😉  It's available to hear online or download as mp3. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002n7wv In a few days time resident doctors -who used to be known as junior doctors - were meant to be going on strike. This would be the 14th strike by the doctors’ union since March 2023. The ostensible reason was pay but now the dispute may be over without more increases to salary levels. The Government has instead made an offer to do something about the other big issue for early career doctors - working conditions and specialist training places. David Aaronovitch and guests discuss what's going on and ask what the problem is with the way we in Britain train our doctors? Guests: Hugh Pym, BBC Health Editor Sir Andrew Goddard, Consultant Gastroenterologist Professor Martin McKee, Professor of European Public Health, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Mark Dayan, Policy Analyst, Nuffield Trust. Presenter: David Aaronovitch Producers: Caroline Bayley, Kirsteen Knight, Cordelia Hemming Production Co-ordinator: Maria Ogundele Sound Engineers: Michael Regaard, Gareth Jones Editor: Richard Vadon

      The Office Party - how it used to be.

      That was one that the BBC seem to have lost track of.  But they do still have quite a few. These are some in their 60s archive. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0028zp6
