Reports that the Bears have released CB Kyle Fuller and granted DL Akiem Hicks permission to seek a trade. I know cap space is an issue in Chicago, but these moves seem crazy!

Watching the Man U game and really struggling with the Bruno Fernades hype......am i missing something?.

Without doubt. Probably not even a pro-indy majority. And yet this comes out on Twitter 27 minutes ago. I'm so confused as to what effect this is having, I appreciate its a Westminster poll but?

Can only find two messages online and they mention pressurising the Police, events in London, Salmond firefighting being good for complainers and CPS action being a good thing. Are there more that mention Police providing information required for prosecution and informing the complainers, because if, for example, they show attempts to fabricate or alter evidence then that's clearly criminal. Completely agree with the inappropriate behaviour by Murrell with regard to the two messages I've read. He should do the decent thing and resign, but NS wasn't involved in the criminal investigation in any way was she? because that would be a real scandal (the Police under the supervision/direction of the Procurator Fiscal/Crown Office investigated the crimes).

My knowledge of this case is pretty minimal and I was wondering if you could enlighten me as to why you believe NS's husband and others have attempted to Pervert the Course of Justice which I take it is Salmond's basis for the conspiracy allegations?. Is the assertion that he (NS’s husband) and others encouraged complainers to come forward and give false testimony because I'm not personally aware of any emails that support that position. He was certainly keen that they push forward with their complaints, but that in itself is not a crime unless you can point me to some case law that indicates I'm wrong in that regard. Police Officers will often appeal for individuals to come forward with information regarding crimes of a Sexual Nature after criminal proceedings have commenced. Best analogy I can give regarding a member of the public doing so would be if a Housebreaking occured, police attend, catch perpetrator, victim discovers other houses in the area have been broken into and encourages his neighbours to report these incidents. The victim hasn't attempted to pervert the course of justice has he? As I say you may have info re the emails/messages that I’m not party to, so I’m happy to be corrected? Can't comment on your other points other than to say if point (ii)I is proved and the appears and very likelys become absolutes, there is no way Sturgeon can survive as she would have clearly misled parliament and not in an insignificant way? Although the SNP come out of this badly whatever the conclusions of the various reports, the running commentary on Twitter by opposition members of the committee and the Justice Secretary tweeting during NS’s evidence brings the whole process into disrepute and is an embarrassment for the SP as a whole. It should have been an apolitical enquiry chaired by an independent judge with powers to access relevant documentation (if that option is even possible). Basically F**k the lot of them!.

His issue was that the enquiry was being prevented from seeing the evidence he alleges he has and that the Scottish Parliament didn't have the power to obtain it. His main aim I believe was to provide the Scottish Parliament with the necessary powers by amending the Scotland Act (god knows if that was done as some are suggesting?) . He could of course just have indicated that these powers were required and not use parliamentary privilege to list the alleged evidence he had access to, but politics is aplay here given May is not far away. Said it previously, but people really should wait for the independent review to establish whether or not NS breached the Ministerial Code.

In regards to Sturgeon, I think it's misleading Parliament with regards to when she was made aware of the Salmond allegations and thereby breaching the Ministerial Code . Seems that Davis has some information (emails?), which might show evidence of her knowing well before she alleges, information the committee did not have access to (god knows if they have the info now). Didn't Salmond himself say that Sturgeon did not conspire against him and that his beef was with others in the civil service and SNP, including NS's husband? The bottom line in all this is that an independent enquiry is being carried out in respect of the Ministerial Code breach by NS and that report should be the deciding factor as regards whether or not Sturgeon should go (not that breaking the Ministerial Code in Westminster appears to be a problem for the current Home Secretary).

As a retired cop who packed it in after 25 years service, the correct answer is that a single officer (myself included) can be both a b*****d and good person. Pathetic Nuanced Shitebag is the correct answer to the poll.

Thought this would be a good one too, but West Ham seem happy to sit back and defend and Rashford Greenwood and James are a pretty underwhelming front three.

Social Media is in a real tizzy tonight. The Right want Khan out, the left want Patel gone and poor Cressida Dick has no friends at all.

Three putts the 18th for an 8 out in 43. If the long game goes he’s gonna continue to drop down those World Rankings. Isn’t he already out of the top 10?

GMB need a steady experienced hand to get them back on course

Keep your hands off Dick Campbell

Well hopefully the republican cause will get a boost out of this charade, though not holding my breath given the slobbering mess of the Royalist sycophants on Social Media, led by a ragin Piers Morgan.

First game purchase this season is it usually this bad?

So whose going to win the Twitter # war tonight #sturgeonresign or #StandwithNicola

Did she start a 9am and how longer are they going to go on? Just wondering given that this level of scrutiny in a 'Bannana Republic' is a bit unusual.

I've only watched the last hour and the thing that stands out to me is the appaling quality of some of the MSPs we're electing.........both Nats and Unionists.

Alex is not going to let this rest is he?

So has anyone landed a knockout blow on wee Nicola yet cant watch the action?

Is that 8 games unbeaten now?

They really have no right to criticse the ref when they dont know the rules. One of them thought Wellbeck may have been given offside.

Actually i do ken a George Kerr but he's a plumber who plays golf (badly) at my local club.

Been a lurker for a while. Love the site....... so time to start posting. Hi all
