This & That 𐃉 Take 6


Luck of the Draw
 Hard to believe that Liverpool got good results against each of the Manchester teams, knocking both out of the major English domestic cup competitions. Had the results gone Manchester’s way, there may have been a serious loss of confidence in Kenny Dalglish’s ability to resurrect his team’s fortunes. For now the Benitez/Hodgson road has been spared him but for how long? Beating Wolves 3-0 is ok only because Liverpool must have been expecting a draw. Which is just what they got at Anfield on Monday night when Harry Rednapp’s Spurs taxed them, resulting in a scoreless game.

Liverpool travel to Manchester United this weekend. As much as the focus should be on the feet more attention might be on the hands – whether there is a shake between Patrice Evra and Luiz Suarez. Liverpool’s Uruguayan international is just back from an extended suspension which he received for racially abusing Evra. Rather than court controversy Liverpool might play Suarez as a sub. That way the pre-match ritual shaking of hands between both teams will be avoided. United will hardly spare their blushes by placing Evra on the subs’ bench. Why should they? It would be like telling him to go to the back of the bus.  

 
Calling For Release

Raymond McCartney of Sinn Fein has called for the release of Marian Price and Martin Corey currently detained without trial in Maghaberry prison. McCartney said :

Both Martin Corry and Marian Price are being held following the revoking of their license by the British secretary of state. This is unacceptable. If there is evidence against someone it should be presented and tested in a court of law.

It is the sort of thing John Hume used to say when we were in jail. McCartney should know better. Before he embraced the politics of Hume he shared the perspective of Price and Corey. He knows the tribunal he seeks to have them brought before is a British court of law where those in the dock would be denied the benefit of a jury. Raymond McCartney was himself tried in such a court, convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment. Many years later long after the horse had bolted, and he had since been released, he won his case. Small consolation. Why would he, given his experience, think being tried in a British juryless court a good thing?𐃉

Fawlty Powers

This is what the British tax payer forks out their hard earned dosh for: so that some ambitious prick of a rookie cop eager to prove himself can be allowed to chase himself up and down alleyways, along streets, around corners. Like a dog chasing its own tail. Perhaps he should become a police Alsatian. He could even ask to be his own handler.

Imagine this PC Plod walking into a police station in a semi contorted state with his hand on the back of his own neck, telling himself  ‘it’s a fair cop guv.’

  3. Liverpool got beat 2-1. Not at all surprised.

    Prayers should be like your genitals - do want you want with them in private but you can't wave them around in public. Prayers at a council meeting - starting to sound like Belfast City Hall used to be

  12. In todays Vatican Times aka the Irish News pg 8;
    Mc Guinness spent 303k euro on presidential bid, now correct me if I,m wrong here but didnt Martyboy stand as an independent and his campaign donations amounted to 4,348 euro and he is entitled to claim back 200k euro because he reached the quota,now I,m no mathematician but I reckon that leaves a shortfall of 98,652k euro now for a man from the Bogside on an industrial wage thats a whole lot of debt,now I wonder where this failed candidate will get the money to pay of his creditors maybe the Northern bank could help him out here,

  17. a man from the Bogside on an industrial wage

    What is an industrial wage? I know the minimum wage is £6.31..Living wage is £7.65. Why don't SF MLA's take the minimum wage like the people who they claim to represent earn(lead from example etc)..? They'll still have their trapping of power, free lunches, expenses for petrol, clothes ....
