    The club shouldn't punish the people who spilled onto the pitch during the last minute winner at a ground we haven't won at for years.
    I won't lose any sleep if they decide to punish the guys on the shelter roof, that shit was just dangerous.
    The club shouldn't be inviting Rangers hating politicians to Ibrox.

    SG needs to impose himself more on the players, or we will be getting the same quotes as last season, he also has to lay to rest the ghost of former England captains.

    From figures it would appear the demise of mines was more than double the tory total, under labour.
     
     
    Then there is the charge that it was Margaret Thatcher who "destroyed" the coal mines and the mining communities. How many times have the BBC broadcast that claim without refutation? Yet the facts show that far more coal mines closed under the Labour Prime Ministers Harold Wilson and James Callaghan.
    These are the figures for the sharply declining number of coal mines open each year under those Labour Governments.

    It was the ever-erudite @allanholloway who brought to my attention a few weeks back that more coal mines closed under Harold Wilson’s governments than under Margaret Thatcher’s, and I owe him an apology for not having credited him sooner, given the number of retweets I got for passing that on earlier.  Based on these figures from the government about 290 mines closed under Wilson in all his time in office, and about 160 under Thatcher.  Because the figures are based on year end totals of pits operating, it’s not possible to be precise, but the relative scale of those numbers is clear.  So why isn’t Wilson execrated by the Left for his part in the decline of coal mining?
    That is a fair question. Do the Left seriously claim that Harold Wilson was accepting economic realities while Margaret Thatcher was motivated by sheer spite?

    Audi  engineers Lamborghini's engines. The Audi R8 V10 shares the same engine with Lamborghini Huracan. Ironically, the Audi, which is supposed to be more practical and roomier, is actually quicker than the Lambo.
