Jobsworths! Yet maybe if they’d committed a crime or two they wouldn’t have had to endure this, seems criminals get far better treatment from the system and those who run it?

People who are honest enough to go through the system properly are easy pickings when it comes to getting the statistics down.

funnier than your cowardly dig at folk (and I'm sure there are some DavePearson among them and others will make mistakes) trying to do a difficult job driven by political masters who are maybe just a wee bit xenophobic. A comment either ignorant in the extreme or just nasty Heil reader stuff

I'm sure many of us basically agree with the gist of JS's argument, I for one anyway.

Wottie is right though, the only wings of interest right now are Damian Hoyland and Duhan on Saturday. Please let's keep this good site as apolitical as poss, heavens, we don't want to end up like the Scotsman btl :evil:, all arguing away about great matters of state two minutes before kick off!
