Yeah I appreciate that some sectors (particularly private sector) have done it for a long time, but I work in what you might call a 'quasi-public' sector, and it is a relatively new thing for us. Not least because the cost of recruitment is borne by our tenants so I guess we were always reluctant to spend anything that was deemed to be unnecessary.

It seems to be the modern way TS, it happens all the time in my sector now when recruiting for top execs but 10 years ago it was unheard of. That said, from the outside looking in the DOF recruitment process didn't begin early enough, given the impending need for a new head coach.

The Jam - The Butterfly Collector (One of many fantastic 'B' sides from The Jam)

The Style Council - The Boy Who Cried Wolf

Starsailor - Four From the Floor

Hot Gossip and Sarah Brightman - I Lost My Heart To a Star Ship Trooper

Lots of runs for Lancashire players today in England's 500 (almost) but to be honest I'm not too sure what there is to be gained from this sort of game. Salt, Livingstone and Buttler should all be playing for Lancashire today in a competitive fixture, not pissing about against average bowlers on a small ground in a mismatched friendly.

David Bowie - Golden Years

I realise that he's a very soft target on here but for a bit of balance I don't think he's done too badly over the past week or two.

I'm pretty sure the guy is due a holiday, in all fairness (puts tin hat on...)

The Kinks - Death of a Clown

Gang of Four - He’ll Send In the Army

Yeah Mrs OJF reckons he has a look of Brad Pitt about him....

Elton John - Song For Guy

I posted the link to it earlier, it wasn’t the half way line but he did a little keepy-up and then stroked it in from the penalty spot area.

Sounds like a cracker. This was Stuart Metcalfe's

Better than Mecky's at St James Park?

The Marvelettes - Please Mister Postman

He had a punt on him

Celtic fans had for sure

The Clash - Gates of the West

He's certainly worked at Norwich and Luton Tony, albeit in youth development and not first team issues.

Michael Jackson - Blame it on the Boogie

Snap - Rhythm is a Dancer

The Buffalo Springfield - Broken Arrow
