Be careful not to underestimate Private Eye. That publication played a role in revealing the false convictions of the Sub Postmasters. |

I understand your trauma. Brentford: 36.6% possession 20 shots Southampton: 63.4% possession 18 shots Meaningless when you consider the result:: Brentford 3 Southampton 1 That is what counts. Finally, what is this 'process' nonsense? Goes hand in hand with the 'journey' nonsense. |

As someone in the 'old farts' age group I find the whole situation depressing. We generally seem to have parents who have no parenting skills and can't be arsed to acquire them, leaving that to others, like teachers. We also have parents who seek to blame others for their own shortcomings and promote disrespect for those in authority. We have parents who can't be arsed to cook healthy meals for their offspring, thus encouraging obesity. We have a society that from the top down refuses to accept responsibility for their actions. |

Don't believe the right wing press. wait for the Budget. Interesting to hear that although they will be abolishing the WFP, old age pensions are due to rise above the level of inflation next April. the Tory Government had 14 years to put things right, but spent more time stabbing each other in the back than governing the country. Labour have been in power some 4 months. Give them a chance. |

Your points about football being 'a very simple game' and coaches complicating it 'to an absurd degree' is, in my opinion, on the button. The obsession with statistics by coaches, pundits and fans is ridiculous when what matters most is the actual number of goals scored, for and against. It simply does not matter if we have 70 plus per cent possession if we don't score a goal, sadly an all too frequent occurrence. |

I recall one Summer him briefly stopping whilst running along Ashleigh Road golf course to kick a football around with me and a mate. That sort of thing happened in those days. |

I was hoping before the match that Williams would rest our 'Captain' thus giving us the opportunity to see the team dynamics without his presence. Unfortunately that was not to be. To see him twice bottle out of taking a shot on goal, on his favoured left foot, was absolutely depressing. I hate to say it but I almost hope he gets injured so Williams would have no option but to omit him. |

You perfectly encapsulate all that's wrong with him. Potentially he is an excellent player. Unfortunately all our problems as a team stem from him. |

So is his father. Usually on the other side of the pelican crossing as you approach from the Hafod. It is a good read. |

Perhaps not, but as I recall anyone who was receiving the over 60s rate but who had not reached 65 when it was changed was protected. Don't wish your life away! keep paying the full rate and be happy! |

You are quite correct, he was a great rugby player and, no doubt, ruthless. Before we elevate anyone to sainthood though, we should remember that we are all human. I don't know who Bakkies Botha is but he doesn't sound Welsh. So I cannot disagree with that. |

I think the 65 cut off was fair enough. I don't think there were any other changes this year that would affect old parts like me but there may be something affecting the younger fans. Their concessionary rates should be protected in particular. |

It should be said that Gareth Edwards was no saint on the rugby pitch. Just ask Clive Shell. Off the rugby pitch? Just ask Chico Hopkins. My point is that perhaps Res has a more realistic view of the human race. |
