BT  is to offer its new sports channels, offering live Premier League  football, free to customers who take its broadband service as the telecoms operator ramps up its challenge to BSkyB's dominance of UK pay-TV.

The company also confirmed on Thursday as it launched its sports pay-TV offering at its new broadcasting base in the Olympic Park in Stratford, east London, that former BBC presenter Jake Humphrey will anchor its Premier League coverage

Looking forward to BTs coverage, hopefully it might force Sky to lower their prices, BT have got an impressive lineup, Bale,Rio,Van Persie to name just 3, lets hope they dont go the same way that Setanta and ESPN did!

It seems like his departure is imminent

The man is a legend, not sure who could replace him, Moyes is a name being banded about, but he has no CL experience, Mourhino maybe, if he has not decided to join Chelsea, whatever happens, i dont think we will get another Manager staying at a Club for so many years, which is a shame, stability = success.

Not got a strong opinion on UKIP, i know they seeking Britain's withdrawal from the European Union, which many people agree with, amongst other issues.

Are people happy to see them win seats? Will they actually do anything different, apart from talking the talk?

Not based on a news event as such, just a topic that i have discussed with Friends and i thought it would make a good topic for debate.

The main argument was that Crime keeps society going, it provides us with entertainment through Books, Movies, Documentaries all inspired by Crime, it provides Jobs, Police Officers, Security Guards, Prison Officers,Social Services, TV Dramas, Locksmiths the list is endless, its sets us Moral Boundaries,.

So can society function without Crime, obviously it is highly unlikely there will  be no Crime, but for arguments sake if it happens, will society survive?

Penny Woolcock's award-winning documentary charts the attempts by two warring gangs, the Burger Bar Boys (B21) and the Johnson Crew (B6), to bring peace to their neighbourhoods in inner city Birmingham.

It follows Penny Woolcock's hip hop musical 1 Day, which was partly informed by these postcode wars.

One Mile Away was initiated by Shabba, a young man affiliated to the Johnson side, who met Penny during her research for 1 Day.

He saw her as neutral and as someone who had built trust on both sides.

Penny agreed to get involved and introduced Shabba to Dylan Duffus, the lead actor in 1 Day and affiliated to the Burger side.

The film follows their painstaking journey over two years to recruit supporters from both sides.

Along the way, they get advice from Jonathan Powell, who oversaw the Good Friday Agreement, and the riots erupt in Birmingham in summer 2011, with surprising consequences.

This compelling documentary demonstrates how film and the determination of ordinary people can transform entrenched social problems

Anyone seen this?

Quite intresting,the usual blaming the Police for the Riots, a Police Officer on a cordon refuses to talk about the riots, instead referring lad the Press Office, this is taken as the Police not listening to people, and increasing community anger, trying to call a truce was quite intresting, but what they did not mention that the so called post code wars are about Drugs, not just anger towars Police etc.
