All sides of british journalism are sickening imo. everyone has their own agenda. you cant blame one or t'other without showing your own bias.

as i've stated in earlier threads, Gordon Brown is NOT the financial wizard he would have us believe. for too long he has spent way beyond this countries means. I understand that he is no longer chancellor and as such has little direct control over how the tax revenue is spent, but the damage was done early in new labours reign when he was. he has consistently sold off the nations assets at low prices (Gold reserves being an example). imo this was done to pay for the huge increase in public sector workers that we have had in the last 13 yrs to try and achieve the "world class services" which they are still trying to achieve. this is not a pop at said workers who for the most part are dedicated, hard working professionals.

gonna replace the orange fella from Hull maybe??

Can you really see this making him think one morning "oh these dont like me i think i'll sell"?? NO He will when and only when we get promoted and someone pays him well over 100mil for the club. Until then we can only make it as uncomfortable and embarrassing for him as possible. Not exactly true, he will sell as soon as someone offers him what he is looking for, which at this moment in time is £80million. dont think he will unfortunatley. he'll hang on and try and get promotion to sell "the product" at a better price. Fat lad will only sell us for that if we dont get promoted. but of course nobody will buy us for that whilst we are in the CCC. catch 22 i'm afraid!!

tbh, i think Krul might have the no.1 shirt by then. if he hasnt been sold of course!

What a load of shit. Only Enrique and S Taylor are Premier League quality. Can you not remember how utterly awful these players were last season? Sunderland spent over 80m when they came up and just survived. It would take a similar level of investment for us. yeah but they had Roy Keane as manager who thought it was a wheeze to pay WELL over the odds for average players. I reckon if the fat one is still in charge he'll go down the Stoke route. ie. inexpensive. who's out of contract at the end of the season btw??

New Order of the European Union Brussels overlords Nazi superstate.

"David Cameron's U-turn on a 'cast-iron guarantee' to hold a referendum on the European Union's reform treaty has devastating implications for British democracy This a desperately sad moment for British democracy and sovereignty - a moment when the great majority of voters have been disenfranchised and left with no serious political party to represent their views. The implications of David Cameron's retreat over Europe are as simple and devastating as that. It is an ineluctable fact: poll after poll has shown that most Britons are strongly against the expansion of the EU's power - and an even greater majority demand the referendum promised by all three main parties in their manifestos at the last General Election. Of course, it goes without saying that the true scoundrels in this debacle are New Labour. Once safely re-elected, they chose to ignore their unequivocal commitment to the electorate, hiding behind the lie that the Lisbon Treaty was substantially different from the EU constitution that Tony Blair had promised to put to voters. Mr Brown, to his eternal shame, also reneged on his promise of a referendum. Then at 3pm this Tuesday, when Czech president Vaclav Klaus gave up his lonely resistance and added the final signature to the treaty, the betrayal was complete. After eight years of anti-democratic plotting and bribery, the empire-builders of Europe had finally got their way. The European superstate was born, with all the trappings of an imperial power, from a president and a foreign minister to a defence policy of its own. Tories will give people a vote on any future transfer of power to Brussels, pledges Cameron (but not on the Lisbon Treaty) Only one hope remained that the voice of the British people would be heard - and that the EU might yet be forced to repatriate some of the powers that Gordon Brown had signed away. Hadn't David Cameron offered us his solemn promise that he would give us that referendum we demanded? To quote his very words, which he wrote in the Sun newspaper in September 2007: 'Today, I will give this cast-iron guarantee: if I become PM a Conservative government will hold a referendum on any EU treaty that emerges from these negotiations.' Not much room for doubt there, was there? But yesterday, the Tory leader's 'cast-iron guarantee' melted away like wax. True, a referendum after the treaty has come into force would present certain practical difficulties of wording. And no doubt Mr Cameron feared that a referendum campaign would distract him from the pressing crisis in the public finances. But if this is the case, he should not have raised people's expectations by promising a referendum. For great leadership is about honouring pledges and acting on conviction and belief - not the laws of short-termism and expediency. The cancer destroying faith in modern politics is that the ruling class keep going back on their word and denying voters their say. Put simply, this paper cannot understand why we can't have a referendum, even now that Lisbon has been ratified. As former Shadow Home Secretary David Davis argued so powerfully in yesterday's Mail, it would greatly strengthen Britain's hand at the negotiating table if our Prime Minister could claim a popular mandate for opt-outs on such issues as justice, asylum, immigration and human rights. But instead, Mr Cameron pledges only to put any future treaties to referendums, while saying he will introduce a 'Sovereignty Bill' to ensure the supremacy of UK laws. With our system of government at stake, this is pretty sorry stuff. And of course the worst aspect of Lisbon is that it obviates the need for future treaties, since it gives the EU authority to change its own constitution. Moreover, what good can it do to pass legislation asserting the supremacy of British laws, when we've already signed that supremacy away? What makes Mr Cameron's backpedalling so depressing is that he has often seemed to stand apart from the political class - all the more necessary when the MPs' expenses scandal has opened up a yawning chasm between Westminster and the people. True, he has been far too reluctant to voice popular concerns over such issues as mass unrestricted immigration. But on such matters as the importance of the family, the need to clean up Westminster - and, yes, until yesterday on Europe - his gut instincts have been far closer than New Labour's to the views of ordinary electors. He must find the courage to trust those instincts and fight for what he believes. At this of all times, Britain is crying out for politicians of integrity who will put into words and action what the majority believe. That is what democracy is all about." -
