    Arsenal at home in Capital One Cup and it's live on SKY on 23rd September

    Good draw. No reason why we shouldn't beat them, they look nothing special at the moment. A win would get the team fired up. They should then take that confidence into the league games.

    Jimmy Greaves

    Great news - looking forward to the time that he finally graces the club with his presence and claim his place in our Hall of Fame. I've just dug out his autobiography and am reading it again, its a real page turner.

    If we end up 6th next season with the same number of points, would you want Poch to stay or go?

    I've voted stay. But it depends on the type of performance that the team puts in, plus he needs to be backed by Levy thus summer and allowed to bring in the players that suit his system. The grass is not always greener on the other side - we keep switching managers and need consistency at the...

    Lost my best mate to a sudden illness on Tuesday, so this is just the news I need to keep me going. Get well soon Jimmy.

    I know that feeling mate. I'm too old for that now but back in the day me and my mates used to do all sorts... most of the time I did remember it the next day but on the odd occasion I had to be reminded of what we had done! I had a mate who did the cock out trick in the middle of of a gig and...

    You may be able to make consenting decisions but equally you may be so shitfaced that you really do not understand the consequences of said consent. That is way the law has that particular clause in it. The effects of alcohol on the brain are well known - this is from the 'drinkaware' site...

    He's already asked for leave to appeal and was denied this. What is happening now is a review of the trial to see if there has been a miscarriage of justice.

    They made an estimation of what her blood alcohol limit would have been at the time of the rape - "The expert called by the defence calculated that the complainant's likely blood-alcohol level at about 4 am would have approximated to something like 2½ times the legal driving limit. He gave...

    I may have misread your original statement then. I thought you had compared getting pissed on a night out and then taking money out of a cash machine and not remembering it the next day to someone who is saying they do not remember getting raped, and then comparing the two? In the CPS...

    I'm not sure that what I said was that ludicrous to be honest! This is an extract from the court summary which can be found here. https://www.crimeline.info/case/r-v-ched-evans-chedwyn-evans "He went on to explain: "A woman clearly does not have the capacity to make a choice if she is...

    Yes, she is a victim. My wife works with victims of DV and SV everyday - the fact that she does not remember the incident could be a coping mechanism. Also, if she can't remember the incident then by default she was unable to give consent, which therefore means that she was raped. He has been...

    Winter transfer mission

    I'd look at asset stripping the Toon now that Pardew has walked - get Moussa Sissoko as a midfield enforcer type player to play alongside either Bentaleb or Mason. I've mentioned him once before - but I'd really take a punt on getting Yacine Brahimi - tricky little left sided player who can...

    They playing three at the back, and Young and Valencia out wide, who can't defend. They have weaknesses, we just need to exploit them.
