I'm surprised Lenny is ditching Holt & especially Humphrey, their experience could've been used for at least one season in the top flight

Hibs now linked with Stokes after pics of Lenny & stokes pinting in Dublin midweek

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
Precisely. It's dispiriting that anybody could think this is anything other than a disgraceful proposal.
See post on previous page by the bunnets' bunnet.
I did. It doesn't change my opinion. These surveillance things are always rolled out initially with some thin veneer of reasonable justification along with assurances of safeguards and limitations. In no time at all the safeguards disappear and the original powers are extended further and further.

Even one generation ago you'd have been hard pressed to convince most people that by 2017 we'd have industrial scale data harvesting and psychological profiling as a matter of course; spy cameras all over every city, town and road network; constantly expanding restrictions on freedom of movement and expression; monitoring of all electronic communications and telephone calls; iris scans, DNA sampling, voice recognition; in every home there are computers capable of - and designed to - transmit visual, audio and location information to the Spooks; now we're on the verge of mandatory fingerprinting to get into a football match - and on and on and on it goes.

The trend is heading in one, ominous direction yet even now few people seem to realise its significance and even fewer give a damn.

Sadly, an entire generation has now grown up who think this is acceptable and even normal because they have no knowledge or experience of anything else.

They should just use all this data to figure out who's going to the game and arrest them in the pub beforehand :)

Aye but they want it in a short format rather than over the year as the Davis Cup is played.

No idea why Gerard Pique is behind it right enough.

28. Didn't get Scholes or Messi. Probably a few I'd have struggled with if I hadn't seem some names here first.

Spent about 3 mins of the 10 looking at Van Persie typing every way way to spell Huntelaar and Nistelrooy I could think of :doh:

Should have got 29 as I missed an obvious one. The other one completely fooled me.
