Title: and in Chales Sale's column
Post by: Hamilton on January 14, 2014, 04:53:26 PM
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2538864/Second-tier-football-clubs-plan-European-competition-Charles-Sale.html

Ian Watmore, former FA chief executive who walked out after nine months because his reforming agenda was being blocked, still has enough appetite for football to be match commentator on Conference North side Altrincham’s radio station. However, Watmore may be missing from the booth if striker son Duncan, who made his Sunderland debut in the FA Cup third round, receives further first-team opportunities at the Stadium of Light.

What a well informed article this is - and some people diss the Mail!

The Mail is still a bigoted, bullying sensationalist rag, no matter how accurate its sport reporting.
you must be a mirror or beano reader.

I agree, and I do read the Beano from time-to-time.

I am both - and it wouldn't do you any harm either.

The Mail slightly shades The Express on being vile, racist and so flaming basic it is beyond belief.  There are actually newspapers out there that contain useful and true information, why people buy daily comics I don't understand.

Sorry guys but I am an avid reader of the mail but that is my choice and I have done so for the last 30 years or so.

On my last message in support of my paper, I find the mail informative, sometimes I agree a little with inaccurate reporting, but it has many good points; eg, the MAC cartoons, Fred Bassett, not afraid to speak up for the public. Remember the challenge to the Eltham racist murderers and the challenge to sue them? They have on a couple of occasions reported on items such as Damien Reeves, Duncan Watmore etc. There are very good two page essays on the Saturday, as well as a great TV guide, and not least genuine answers to people's problems. but it is the arts page on Fridays and the financial page on Wednesday that has good tips and useful information.

Everybody is entitled to an opinion, myself included. Therefore I am entitled to defend my newspaper of choice.

As for it's competitors, half of them I would not wipe my backside with, and some of you may have noticed, I can spell and use proper grammer.

GrammAr rather than GrammEr   ;)

I acknowledge your right to defend what you read as well as defending mine and other people's equally valid right to express an opinion which you may have noticed I did  :)

The Daily Mail told me that the worst winter for 200 years were coming along with 4 million Romanians, one of whom would take my job.

I've been waiting for all three for weeks now and it's getting tedious, I am wondering if it might have been a myth.

Don't worry Ecky, your jobs safe mate. I can't see a Romanian leading the singing at Moss Lane anytime soon.  :D

As for the 4 Million Romanians - stick em in the away end and give em a mince pie   ;)

I'm surprised anyone reads a national newspaper these days, what with everything being available free on the net. I will sometimes buy the Stockport Express, mainly for the court reports and obituaries
