There was a complete lack of substance and evidence, and if the BBC has any hard evidence it should give it to the Football Association.
On 20 December 2006, Stevens presented his preliminary report, which found that while the level of corruption within English football was not as high as had been anticipated, there were several causes for concern. In summary, the report stated: "there is no evidence of any irregular payments to club officials or players, and they are identified only as a consequence of the outstanding issues the inquiry has with the agents involved". Ashdod — 24 August 2004 Julio Correia Free transfer from Real Valladolid — 25 July 2004 There were also unanswered concerns regarding the involvement of Craig Allardyce in a number of transactions.
There was an initial failure to disclose his involvement in a number of transfers but, more seriously, he has failed to provide the inquiry with complete bank statements due to the confidential nature of them. There has also been a lack of responsiveness by Zahavi. Souness issued a statement denying any wrongdoing: "I cannot understand why my name features in this report.

На церемонии открытия прошлым вечером в Лондоне сэр Джон Стоун, советник по дорожному движению области Метрополитэн, раскритиковал стандарты дорожного движения страны. Он сказал, что очевидным стало то, что британские водители еще должны выучить многие из основных правил дорожного движения. Дорожная дисциплина в стране намного хуже чем в Америке, и особенно опасна манера водителей обгонять. Начинать обгон без соответствующего сигнала слишком опасно, и у водителей наблюдается настолько же рискованная тенденция вклиниваться в ряд после обгона. Однако, пожалуй, самой распространенной формой нарушения явилось нежелание водителей частных автомобилей сворачивать на внутреннюю полосу движения, если имеется такая возможность. Сэр Джон сказал, что слишком многие вынуждены оставаться на средней или даже на внешней полосе, несмотря на состояние дорожного движения, следствием чего является нетерпение водителей, намеревающихся обогнать и пытающихся встать слишком близко вслед впереди стоящему транспортному средству, тем самым увеличивая вероятность аварии.
Конференция продолжается. А теперь о переговорах стран Общего рынка. Мистер Джеффри Риппон, ответственный за проведение переговоров, прошлой ночью вылетел в Брюссель. Предполагается, что целью его поездки является попытка уменьшить разногласия между нашей страной и Европейским Экономическим Сообществом по поводу доли Британии в бюджете Сообщества. Появились признаки того, что некоторые европейские лидеры едва ли принимают нынешнее предложение Британии всерьез, и в Уайтхолле осознают то, что главная задача мистера Риппона в настоящий момент — сделать ясным для Шестерки, что в самой стране предложение считают разумным и реалистичным. Вопрос о присоединении к Странам Общего Рынка также был затронут сегодня официальными лицами Национального Союза Фермеров во время обсуждения брошюры, изданной Штаб-квартирой консервативной партии. В брошюре утверждается, что если Британия присоединиться к Общему рынку, то в общем и целом положение фермеров улучшится.

The breadth of this optimism is revealed today by the discussion website Edge. Steven Pinker Psychologist, Harvard University, author of The Blank Slate In 16th-century Paris, a popular form of entertainment was cat-burning, in which a cat hoisted on a stage was slowly lowered into a fire. As horrific as present-day events are, such sadism would be unthinkable today in most of the world. This is just one example of the most important and under appreciated trend in the history of our species: the decline of violence. My optimism lies in the hope that the decline of force over the centuries is a real phenomenon, that it is the product of systematic forces that will continue to operate, and that we can identify those forces and perhaps concentrate and bottle them.
