Foster hopes to emulate hero Schmeichel

So do we, at the age he is now, if he comes close to the Danes ability that would be the no.1 shirt filled for at least the next 10 years, injuries aside. Every paper seems to be going with some kind of Foster article this morning.

Will Ferdinand be here next season, his agent Zahavi is already playing hardball. Like him or not he is the best defender at the club and we miss him more than any other defender when he doesn't play. I had hoped that Pique was going to come through this season to push both centre halves for that position but sadly it hasn't happened, and i wouldn't be surprised if he isn't here next season either.

How the north sea oil windfall could have been used,
http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2008/feb/27/economics.oil
Instead it was used to fund the failed monetarist economic policies of Thatcher and Geoffrey Howe, ending up paying for the 3 to 4 million that ended up on the dole, as the manufacturing base of this country was decimated needlessly, never to return. And some people still think Thatcher was one of the best things to ever happen for this country.

At least she destroyed her own party like everything else she touched
