What is it with bloody footballers?! Why do so many of them keep breaking the rules?! It’s hardly surprising so many of them are testing positive. I know they think they are superhuman but they are mere mortals like the rest of us
I've heard Man City and the FA have gone bananas about this. The FA has told the clubs to try and get it through the thick heads of some of the players that they are not immune to this virus. The clubs are telling their players not to behave like spoilt brats and understand that they really should be setting an example.

I should bloody well think so. So many kids look up to them and see them as role models.

I should add that Newey quit Williams because he was so angry at Hill being sacked, a) as he understood that you have to have a driver that is good at giving you feedback, Villeuneve and Frentzen weren't, and b) that he wasn't consulted AGAIN by Williams about the driver line up.

Newey asks for feedback about how the car works and how it can be improved from everyone of the design, engineering and mechanical team, no matter how junior (obviously he doesn't accept everything!). He understands that it is really a team effort to win, no matter if you have the biggest budget, best drivers, best engine, etc. you are not going to win if everyone is not pulling in the same direction. Many CEO's and senior management could learn a great deal from his approach.

Let's be honest, it's Newey rather than Horner that Red Bull owes it's success to.

So this is what these ex reality 'stars' are up to in Dubai? I always wondered how they manage to keep up with the lifestyle after they disappear from our screens. My eyes have been well & truly opened!

Horner is just a pompous twat with a vapid wife. Any team principal with the budget Red Bull provide the team, Adrian Newey designing the car and Sebastian Vettel at his peak would win titles.

Agree bloody idiots. They are paid an absolute fortune, yet they cant behave responsibly even if it means keeping their team playing. They are young and rich. There will be plenty of other new years eves for them but they are such entitled idiots they cant bear to take responsibility for 5 minutes!

They should forfeit the points not be able to rearrange the game. I hate football ! The amount of money these individuals are paid is crass. The majority of them are not role models, only a very small minority. The money they are paid makes them think they are invincible.

Yes this is essentially slavery, absolutely horrific. It’s said there are now more slaves living, now than in all previous history. How much abuse must these poor souls suffer, when the whole system seems to encourage abuse?

You can’t blame football, a beautiful game. It’s the industry around it which is horrible, and it’s the same wherever great wealth is.
if you hate James Cordon you don’t say I hate entertainment, although I struggle to see him as an entertainer, but for the want of a better description.
I suppose you meant the industry?

I agree, however most players time at the top is usually 5 years or so, and they try to get as much money as they can before the career goes. You can't blame them if clubs are stupid enough to offer it to them.

Many players once out of the game have significant problems with mental health illnesses, etc.

What I would like to see is the money kept in trust or something like that until they are 40. The bank interest on the money could be used for community projects.

I just don’t get it, I think if you need to lose weight you want to look up to someone inspirational. In a weight loss arena he is not that person. Same with Alison Hammond, I really like her but not as a weight watchers rep. Important to note ’weight watchers’ changed its name to WW they don’t want to make joining all about losing weight. They want to incorporate healthy mindset, which is good. However the main goal for people joining is to lose weight and to see someone who has either achieved it or is giving it a bloody good go.

I've been to dubai a few times on holiday but mainly for business (alone) ... now I'm thinking I bet everyone around me thinks I'm a porta potty ..

The first time I was in Dubai (I was about 26) I got heckled or low level heckling by men constantly asking if I was from the Ukraine. I naïvely didn't get it but now all these years later I see why they were asking me.

Even worse I went, with a friend to that posh 7 star hotel for dinner on the man made beach. As we were leaving the restaurant to get a cab at the reception we had to walk through the extensive gardens, absolutely fine however security had been called and they came for us in a souped up golf buggy they tried to arrest me for trying to silicate prostitution! All because I have blonde hair and a woman and presumably we weren't with our husbands.
I wasn't drinking and I wasn't very modest.
Shocking!
I kicked up a fuss, they realised their error and allowed us to explore the 7 star hotel for free....there is a nightclub and big fish tank all very ugly and over the top.
Anyway all kinda seedy because it was full of men and russian/Ukrainian girls and all the blokes were openly leering

I've been to the non touristy parts of Dubai and there are large Indian, Pakistani communities very interesting but they are treated like dirt.
The human rights in UAE is pretty vile.
