    Biggest bargain in football history

    biased as eff of course but step forward one Teemu Eino Antero Pukki, signed on a free by Norwich and bagged 87 goals in 198 appearances for us including one horror (no) show in the Premier League. In only 5 seasons with Norwich he is our 4th ever highest scorer. Legend.

    It's incredible how Michael Mosley gets such a platform on the BBC having left the medical profession yonks ago, hasn't practiced medicine for decades and is not a registered doctor yet is routinely trotted out as the nations health guru. His intermittent fasting theory was questioned this...

    Re "Politically it swung the pendulum quite a bit towards the EU, who is now a Global Superpower in all but name, without even technically having an army." The EU does have a military force (of sorts) called EUFOR that is currently active in Bosnia Herzegovina and has been present in some shape...
