I agree with all that. We need both investments. Hopefully Trump stops acting silly and gets his development back on track. None of the comments were from people on my friends list

Was that a joke or does he have a bar in Munich?

This has got 1-3 written all over it. Real inviting Barca forward far too much, yet again.

Its amazing the level of vitriol I have read (mainly on Facebook) over the last day or two about Trump (and Sir Ian Wood). No wonder the rest of the country views the NE as a bit of a closed shop. Some people have the city they deserve.

Dublin has been a complete rip off since they got the Euro over there. A concrete fact. Ridiculously expensive place for a night out.

"He's got a lot of strings to his bow and he's certainly one we could have a look at." "He's a hard-working player, goes box-to-box, he can play deep midfield, he can play attacking midfield,"

The text I got said he'd signed until the end of this season.

I think he has only signed until the end of this season? So he must be available to play soon? If fit, he'd be my choice for captain, no question.

Saw Horrible Bosses last night, wasn't too shabby.

It's not a cover of "Please Release Me" then

Design 1 has won it, which I thought was way OTT. Design 2 was said to be the more popular in the public consultation. http://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/Article.aspx/2595913 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-north-east-orkney-shetland-16573250

"The judges of an international design competition to transform Union Terrace Gardens in Aberdeen are expected to announce a winner on Monday. A referendum is to be held next month to decide if the contentious £140m City Garden Project will go ahead. Around 15,000 people attended a two-week exhibition to view the six designs for Union Terrace Gardens last year. The design competition has since been whittled down to two entries – the Granite Web and Winter Garden – with the winner set to be revealed on Monday morning. The Granite Web was designed by New York studio Diller Scofidio and Renfro, while Foster and Partners – who also designed the new Wembley Stadium in London – were the architects behind the Winter Garden. Local businessman Sir Ian Wood has pledged £50m of his money to the project and gave the Aberdeen City Gardens Trust £400,000 to fund the design competition. Sir Ian has also agreed to cover 80% of the referendum costs, which could be as much as £250,000. He has also promised that he will withdraw support for the gardens plans if it does not win public backing. Voting packs will be posted across the city in the middle of February 2012 and residents given two weeks to return their vote. Residents are also set to be able to cast their vote by phone and online. Mike Shepherd, chairman of the Friends of Union Terrace Gardens who are campaigning to retain the Victorian park, said: "The winning design in the vote that counts is Union Terrace Gardens. We are the option that preserves our heritage, keeps the trees and will not involve the council borrowing £70m. "The design chosen will see many of the existing trees chopped down. I hope we are told exactly how many will go. The public need the facts so that they can choose between the leafy Union Terrace Gardens and what could sadly end up as Union Treeless Gardens."

Sherlock. Outstanding stuff. Great performances all round.

Swansea v Arsenal was very good. I know he wasn't commentating on that game but is anyone else tired of Ray "My word" Wilkins? He's a knowledgeable chap but his co-commentary really grates.

Strange decision. Considine has enough on his plate trying to work on his own game without taking on the responsibilities of the captaincy as well. Should have been Arnie or Milsom for me. Unless of course Arnie is definitely offski.

Just back. Utter pish. Jack had a very good game.
