There was an article in The Guardian about the conditions at a Sports Direct warehouse it's not an exaggeration to say it's like a prison camp. You get more or less strip searched going in and out, timed toilet breaks anything over permitted time and your pay gets docked. You also aren't allowed to wear anything the shop sells so if you wore say Adidas socks to work they would presume you nicked them. You have to run up and down the warehouse like Usain Bolt to get the orders sent and all for minimum wage. Just wrong and frankly unacceptable in any workplace but of course the Tories don't give a shit. The power of the unions is being diminished and these are the sort of conditions they were set up for over 200 years ago.

Youre right Iggy. Exploit the workers so Mike Ashley can make more millions....

Another Watford manager it really is a revolving door at that club. When we get so much stick about the amount of managers we've had when will the media and other clubs fans realise it's not unique to Chelsea and happens at all levels of football. Go to Wikipedia and look at how many managers Notts County have had since 2004.

Manchester United on course to earn more than half a billion pounds in a year

Truly amazing. Missing out on top 4 does not hurt them that much if they continue to get these kinds of figures. As well have a lot of buying power over most clubs.

This is why United to me is the dream job for any manager.

Sheffield Wednesday won 2 - 0 over Brighton and Hull City Won 3 - 0 over Derby in their Semi-Finals First Leg Matches.

so at the moment the The Premier League Playoff Promotion Final will be between The Owls (Sheff Wed) -vs- The Tigers (Hull City).

They keep banging on about Hillsbprough- which,dont get me wrong was a tragedy.

However, when Liverpool are in big games -. their fans always storm the gates and turnstiles- they regularly try it at Stamford Bridge. In Athens they were nicking the tickets out of kids hands.

Now this  http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-36293918

Guaranteed in Basel there will be a sizeable majority, causing havoc and trying to get over the gates and fences

And trying their best to airbrush Heysel out of history it never gets mentioned at all. The chairman blamed Chelsea fans and Bates who was forever slagging off our fans said fuck all which shows the contempt he had for us. As for justice well looking at this Juventus fans and their families never got any.

On a serious note, hope it's nothing serious, never nice to read such things, we've had enough of that this past year.
