no its that suburb of Queenbury, Mountain. always thought it ironic that the Bradford divers club was on top of about the highest inhabited hill in the city. On the other hand there is always plenty of water above the place.

The delivery is actually just taking off, it is an obscure region of Siberia called Pukkapiestan.

If you don't pay top dollar the best people will look elsewhere.

That's always been the call from the 10% though hasn't it, Maccbull? They get a big rise and it's, 'essential to keep the best people', but when you [and me] want a bit more to increase our pittance it will be no, 'cos that will 'set off a new round of inflation'. And, of course, one or two at the RFL are inflated enough..

You must be thinking of the good old days of equality - more like the 1% now. On a philosophical note it has always puzzled me why the "best" people would seem only to be motivated by cash rewards as best is not necessarily the adjective I would use

And the same 1% got us into the mess we are in now.

But the knowledge that at least they were "the best" we had, surely consoles you greatly, as it does me?

But were they really the best, or were they just the gobby ones who do well in interviews?

Hit the nail on the head there, I don't mind people getting a good reward for "doing" a good job, it's the ones who "talk" a good job and demonstrably do a bloo** awful one. Naming no names but one does figure "largely" above
