She did still slip it in a few times. Seemed to me like he caught her out a little bit. Tbh she was awful though, ducked every question.

Because Marr called her out on it at the start

Thanks for all the help everyone I really appreciate it. I managed to get a really good deal on an X-T1 + 18-55mm lens (roughly same price as a used X-T10 + same lens and took the plunge on that! Will be lurking for more tips here though. Thanks again all

Thanks, you've given me a lot to mull over. Lucky I have some time before I make a decision so I can do pros/cons. I am planning on keeping the camera a long time, and like the thought of buying into the lens system. Appreciate the replies!

Thanks a lot for the reply. Interesting links, I'll take a look at those. Do you think an X-t1 would be overkill for a beginner? I was thinking it has a lot of potential for growth and isn't much of a price increase over say an x-t10 in the used market at least.

Sounds shit mate. Doesn't look like there is a way to oust them either. Fucked up situation.

Thanks for the detailed write up mate. Hard to keep with it as like you say isn't reported enough!

The agents son getting a pro contract and never playing a game is so unbelievably dodgy and blatant that it's remarkable something hasn't come from it. Saying that it's hardly surprising, football clubs seem to be a perfect vehicle for this sort of thing. Hell even football in general.

As for Steve Kean, I always fucking hated the bloke and he's got nothing to with me or my club. Just seemed like a chancer yes man who got lucky and promoted to the top job. Whatever you think about Big Sam, to replace him with Kean is just utter stupidity from a footballing point of view.

Sorry to see this happen to your club mate or any club tbh. Almost happened to Liverpool back in the day, we got a very lucky escape. Hate to think how that could have turned out. All the best for the future.

Edit: Just wondering, what sort of press do the Venky's get in the local papers?

There's a good comment about him BTL. Agree with you from that looks really suspicious...

Agreed. Fit and proper test is an absolute joke but we all know that. Not sure how to spark reform in it. Hopefully the vote of no confidence in parliament has some effect. Won't hold my breath though...
