Other things.

I see that Jose Enrique has left NUFC and moved to Liverpool. All I can say is that if a player isn't fully committed to the club it is probably best that they leave. Enrique is a good player, but he did have a propensity for trying to play fancy football in silly parts of the pitch.
I hope that the club can find a suitable replacement for him.  It seems that they are looking at Erik Pieters from PSV Eindhoven who is a young Dutch international, let us hope that if we do buy him he can slot into the team and play well. We shall see.

Riot or protest?

Is it mindless rioting or criminal looting or the protest of a disenfranchised youth? There is no reason why it can't be all three. I hesitate to pontificate on the recent goings on in London and elsewhere because so many words have been expended on the subject so far anyway. It does seem though that people have been divided widely on the subject. I doubt that I will add anything to the debate by adding my two-pennyworth so I will keep my counsel and move on to other things.
