The 5S Battery life seems quite palatable to me, though I do stick it on recharge once a day. If you're not too bothered about upgrading, you could always get a cheaper tarrif for a bit until Iphone 6 comes down in price. Also, in terms of prices, are you looking at your current provider only? If so, have a look what the cheapest price is elsewhere and haggle.

Cheers just spotted Scapegoats comments.

Don't quote me but I have heard there is an issue with him being registered with 3 clubs and therefore cannot go to a 4th in a season? In which case its us or Chesterfield. Though I may be wrong.

Indeed!!! Ched's website is just his defence team's view and misses out the valuable input of the prosecution. Of course if someone reads his website it looks shaky, it's hardly going to try to be objective. It's usefullness has some major limitations and can only be partly relied on. To get a fuller picture, the prosecution's case also needs to be heard. Anyone who wants to believe Ched based on his website alone seriously should look at themselves and ask whether are the sort of people that get conned easily.

I have read the case summary of why he wasn't given leave to appeal and it doesn't look that Ropey to me.

Perhaps there should or could have been a seperate charge, though for whatever reason the prosecution didn't alledge that Mcdonald had assisted in the rape of the girl, so the option could not be considered.

As per why one was guilty and one was not, the transscript states: 'Given that direction, it was open to the jury to convict both defendants, to acquit both defendants, or to convict one and not the other defendant. That was the point of a joint trial in which separate verdicts were to be returned. It was open to the jury to consider that even if the complainant did not, in fact, consent to sexual intercourse with either of the two men, that in the light of his part in what happened -- the meeting in the street and so on -- McDonald may reasonably have believed that the complainant had consented to sexual activity with him, and at the same time concluded that the applicant knew perfectly well that she had not consented to sexual activity with him (the applicant). The circumstances in which each of the two men came to be involved in the sexual activity was quite different; so indeed were the circumstances in which they left her. Those were matters entirely open to the jury; there was no inconsistency.'

How could they be sued in the first place?

He was hardly prolific, was that his only goal... and he missed the penalty which Goalkeeper Beckford should have took Vs Wolves.

Hooray, hooray Graeme Sharp resigns Hooray, hooray Graeme Sharp resigns And nobody cries Nobody cries Because we all want the Oldham to survive

I think they would have had more of such matches if it wasn't for the Ireland match in '95.

Apparently England is going to be chucked out of Wembley as Wembley will be home to an Amercan Football Team.

I agree. On a very basic level, a 'non-violent' rape could occur by using the threat of significant violence.

Well said, though its the Irish PFA (my fault).

No it's just a (poorly written) opinion which his employee had decided not to back.

Not just the BBC, pretty much every news agency going. The (edit - Irish) PFA have taken down the article (I wonder why?) Though I have it here: 'The difficult element of this discussion, though, is the part about the scale of the crime. There are people who will say rape is rape and degrees shouldn’t come into it but in sentencing these issues matter. This crime, as alleged, was at the bottom end. There was no violence and thankfully the victim has no recollection of it. This, I hasten to add, does not make it right, or anything close to it, but it is nonetheless a mitigating factor. From Jessica Ennis-Hill to Charlie Webster and pretty much every media commentator who has waded into this mire, the horses most of these pundits have mounted are so high, they’ll need a parachute to get down. When sanctimony takes over, there is rarely any real room for serious debate. It’s not easy to muster up too much sympathy for Evans but there is surely nothing worse than being accused of a crime which you genuinely believe you didn’t commit. The argument against that is that a jury convicted him of the crime. That’s right. And the same applied to the Guildford Four and the Birmingham Six. They got no public sympathy either. Maybe he is guilty or perhaps he’s innocent, none of us knows for sure. Surely, either way, he deserves a chance at redemption. Don’t we all?'

You're right, but by society's norms, until it is now proven otherwise, he is guilty and people have the right to question his lack or remorse. If the Inquiry goes against him, I would imagine that no one will touch him with a barge pole.

Indeed - i'd argue that you need a higher level of consent if the person is inebriated that would be a lot harder to obtain for someone who had just walked in.

As I understand, it was actually less of a rape scene and more of a scene that makes fun of rape in what is more of a pantomime than a play.

Yes she was always very helpful. I hope she has a good retirement.

I agree, role models come in many shapes and forms and aren't always good.

Indeed - Well done Rose and Phil!!!

So why have we sent him on loan...to a comet?

He's been getting a lot of the assists for Doyle. I believe Chesterfield couldn't resign him after their loan so hes with us in January, then presumably either us or Chesterfield can sign him until the end of season or he goes back to Villa?

First out of the draw against erm ourselves. Changed to 'unique values' and got us V Dale/Cobblers at home.
