    That's right, he's decided they need a larger home after he's just signed his new whopping 3 year contract with us...... ;run

    Pochettino says he doesn’t want VAR.

    "This business is so important and our fans - football fans - must be happy. If you stop for five minutes for a decision, I don't know how they are going to behave."

    As opposed to how they feel when their team loses due to a dodgy call by the ref.

    Thankfully he'll have no say in it.

    If that’s how the schools spell pyjamas then you’d be better off keeping the kids off school altogether.

    I'm more worried about the apostrophe. Which is wrong in whatever form of English it is. ;ok

    The spelling is made up anyway, since it is a loan word from the Persian. لباس خواب
    and is just an attempt to replicate the pronunciation of the original word in English letters. It's why words like qat are also spelled khat, and both are correct.

    Mrs G we might as well give up worrying about apostrophes. Generally I see about 1 in 10 of them being used correctly and there are groups who want them abolished altogether. I’d like to see their petitions as I wouldn’t mind betting they want apostrophe’s abolished.

    Thorn, I see what you did there - at least I'm hoping that it was intentional ;biggrin
    On further reading, of course it was. ;wink

    As I said to grey, it's a win-win for us. Whoever lost, I'd be laughing at them.

    It was actually a very entertaining game to watch ;ok

    Five per cent of UK adults do not believe the Holocaust took place and one in 12 believes its scale has been exaggerated, a survey has found.

    The poll of more than 2,000 people was carried out by Opinion Matters for the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust (HMDT).

    God help us all.

    Part of the problem is that it’s history is no longer taught in most schools. My children, now in their forties, were taken to the concentration camps as part of their curriculum. The secondary school my granddaughter is now in has no plans to do such trips as at the moment none of the years 7-11 cover the world wars in their history.
    I’d be interested to see the demographics of the 5% who deny it and the 8.33% who think the numbers are exaggerated. Combined it’s a scary total.
    With the growing tendency of vandalism of memorials it’s a worrying trend.
