If memory serves me correctly, didn't Paul Scholes refuse to play for Manchester United against the Arsenal in the league about 10 years ago, a game which his side lost 4 nil?

That was when he was banished to the reserves who played in that LC tie. Actually Stan Collymore refused to play for Liverpool reserves too when he was there. But Tevez was on the bench so his case is somewhat different. It's hard to know what Tevez really wants. He knows he can't move anywhere yet, he's earning a good salary, what's wrong with playing a bit of football too? He may not like Mancini but heck it's his job and you don't have to like the boss. The money should be compensation enough.

Me too, are there any regular social events?

I believe not just the Rodwell decsion to be wrong, Van der Vaart clearly handled the ball to score Tottenhams first goal but none of the officials gave it. The decsion to disallow Wolves a perfectly legitimate goal was also questionable to say the least. Perhaps this will just add fuel to the fire regarding video replays for match officials?

Isn't it just the purest of pleasures to see the mire Forest are in.


And yet the nature of that ghastly club is that they thrive out of adversity. When last the East Midlands Juve had bested them on all fronts, a gobby northener arrived and propelled them within no time to a level beyond all precedent and prediction. Even now, diminished by dipsomania, scandal and malfeasance, they pull in crowds three times that of more deserving clubs north of the Trent.


But perhaps this time the times are changing.

It's debatable whether it was handball or not. Certainly none of the Arsenal players appealed at the time. And as for video replays I think that could spoil the flow of the game. I'd only go for goal line technology though. Too many times a ball has been clearly over the line and not given.

Very debatable, and inconclusive from replays...same applies to the Wolves 'goal' This has been said many times before, these decisions tend to even themselves out over the course of a season. I'd rather keep the flow of the game and rely on the officials to make an honest decision at the time. However, if like Mr Atkinson they make an obvious howler, they should show some accountability and issue an apology/explanation of their decision.
The one thing I like about Fabio is that he tends to only pick players who are actually playing regular club football, not going on past glories/reputation i.e Ferdinand...as for posh bloke, let's hope he doesn't stagnate like Walcott seems to have done at L'Arse

    • We have had a few cat flaps over the years but none have been electronic. They just have a small clip that you turn to lock or open.  Some come with a magnet and a matching magnet that the cat wears on its collar  This prevents other cats entering.  I've not used these as I don't like the idea of a cat wearing a collar. Cats do like to be out at night and you need to encourage yours to return after a late evening sortie. Calling,rustling treat wrappers worked for ours but he seems to have now got into the habit of coming back about 9pm. without this.        
    • Having had several cats over the past 40 years - mainly rescue, we have a tried and tested routine, Initially confined to one room with litter tray/food/water - we take it in turns to stay for a few minutes several times a day so they become familiar with our scent. They are gradually introduced to the rest of the house. We have a wire cat basket and we place cat in basket and take them outside, over a few days we place basket in different areas of the garden - grass area/gravel area, patio area etc - different flowers/plants. Some of the more nervous cats we walk around the garden on a lead. They get use to the scent of the garden. We have a cat flap in the back door so they have full access - If we need to keep cat in - just block off the cat flap so they cannot escape! We are now down to one elderly cat - who during the summer just laid on the garden chairs and came in for food, but as weather getting colder prefers to sit on a worktop in the kitchen looking out into the garden. So we are back to the cat litter as she is reluctant to go out in the rain/cold.  
    • With fibre you are paying for the speed, which is the number, yours is 300 so if you did a lot of gaming, for example, you would want the fastest possible.  If it's just office work or maybe streaming on Netflix you likely won't need as fast, but, if there are a lot of people in your house all doing their own thing on different devices, then faster speeds are better.  I don't rely on my Wi-Fi much other than when I am using my mobile.  I use Ethernet cables to connect up everything, I Have one cable running from my router, along the skirtings and through a hole I drilled in the wall to another room.  I have attached the plusnet speed guide which gives you an idea of how it works.   
    • I'd reread what you posted and try to summarise.  It just comes across as a rant.
