I didn't know he was doing 124mph Brucie so in that case i do completely agree with you, if you even consider taking your eyes off the road when doing that speed and kill somebody then you should really be getting 15 years inside IMO. I wasn't in possession of the full facts.
Strangely enough it was Pope Gregory the 9th inviting me for drinks aboard his steam yacht, the saucy sue currently wintering in montego bay with the England cricket team and the Balanese Goddess of plenty.

Doing 124mph, fine. Playing with your iPod while driving, fine. Doing both together, bloody stupid. Oddly though, I feel differently about this to McCormack and Puppet Dance Boy. They were both pre-meditated, both drove knowing full well they were unfit so to do. Robertson was just dangerously stupid and he (and the victims) paid a very high price for that stupidity. Having been involved in a case of this offence (fortunately only the one, they are still extremely rare), I can tell you that it's a terrible, awful process even for those who have to deal with the aftermath from afar. Robertson will have learned his lesson, which sets him apart from the other two. He **** ed up, but has served his time and his mistake may now be forgiven if not forgotten.

What about striker Greg Pearson, ex-Burton? Been released by Grimsby and is available.

He's quick but hasn't got much else to his game. I don't think he would get as many as Benyon and doesn't really have the attributes for a target man.

I see that Paul Reid, Scunny's captain has been released. I believe he was signed by Knill who might want him here?? Might depend on £ and whether we retain Aaron Downes and Brian Saah no doubt

With the news today that both right backs have been released it would seem that AK has someone lined up.

Possibility it could be Amankwaah (not sure on spelling)? Sure I read on here that he had been released, good signing in my opinion!!

He got released by Exeter. I doubt he will be much cop if your being released by them to be quite honest.

Well to be quite honest If he came here I am sure he would be a good signing as being released by Exeter does not mean he is a bad player ! Although he might find a few changes since he was last here in 2003 !! At 30 years old a good experienced pro.

Kevin Amankwaah impressed during his previous short spell at Plainmoor but that was a while ago now. Interestingly enough he made his debut with Bristol City as a sub replacing fellow ex gull Matthew Hewlett.Might be worth a look

Pity we can't sign up Heather Watson. We'd have sell-out crowds and win all our games to love..
