Stuttering start for Benitez 10:03pm on 24 Aug 2009 Forget the rest for a moment - what about you and Hansen predicting this would be Liverpool's season? Maybe next year hey....

Man United all the way come on lads!!
Mumbai horror shocks England fans 4:42pm on 01 Dec 2008 Further to my point above, I can appreciate the fear created by much of the media saying the targets were Western Passport holders, but on the news channels I have seen (indian channels that broadcast here) the majority of those injured were NRI's (Non Resident Indians) who had a foreign passport. I may be wrong on this but just judging what I have seen to far.

I also know that the hotel which England would have used was targeted but when the team would have stayed there, the security would have been extremely tight. It is a well known fact that Indians love cricket and cricketers, this includes foreign ones as much as their own - which other country's teams would pay $6million for the services of Symonds?! I use that as an example to show the importance of security for the cricketers out there, and can say with fair certainty that this attack would not have occured with the English team there, there would be no way to get inside.
Mumbai horror shocks England fans 11:08am on 01 Dec 2008 So if Australia had gone home after the 7/7 attacks, would that have been justified? Imagine the uproar of how England was still safe etc.

After all the attacks on the Underground here could have caused an even bigger catastrophe than what is going on in Mumbai, not to mention the further foiled plot on 21/7.

At least in Mumbai the situation was contained and there has been no repeat yet. The team should go back and play the Tests at least.
