1.“Why do old movies looks so much better than modern ones? Everything now looks too dark and mushy” is a question that's banded around. The half formed response is usually 'digital camera sensors' but that's really only a small part of the answer. Here are the real reasons...

Garry O’Connor Hibs (2000-2006, 2011-2012) - 204 Appearances, 70G/15A Lokomotiv Moscow (2006-2007) - 43 Appearances, 11G/4A Birmingham (2007-2011) - 61 Appearances, 11G/4A Barnsley (2011) - 23 Appearances, 4G/4A Tom Tomsk (2012-2013) - 6 Apppearances, 1 Goal Morton (2014) - 11 Appearances, 1G/2A Selkirk (2014) - 1 Appearance (all that’s available on Transfermarkt) Scotland - 16 Caps, 4 Goals Garry O’Connor was a strong and powerful striker at Hibs and moved to Russia for around £2m in 2006. A year later he headed to Birmingham for just under double that amount. He struggled with injuries throughout his career but took part in a powerful documentary on the BBC called ‘Playing The Game’ that is worth a watch. His son Josh recently joined Crusaders from Hibs.

We have made the tough decision to delay the release of Football Manager 25 until March 2025. Statement:

Gavin Collins was an off-duty police officer enjoying a night out in central London when he was attacked by a pair of thugs. They repeatedly punched and kicked him, even after he’d been floored. Gavin needed titanium plates in his cheek and one eye socket following the unprovoked attack. One of the attackers had three previous convictions for similar offences of common assault in the previous three years. As it happened the thugs were brothers, and the sons of one of Britain’s richest property tycoons. But they were in luck. When they eventually appeared before Recorder Christopher Hehir in Southwark Crown Court, the judge was in a forgiving mood. The thugs were given suspended sentences—one of 15 months and one of six months. Fast forward to last week when the same judge had to consider a different kind of case involving two young women who did not attack anyone, but did throw a can of soup at a painting by Vincent Van Gogh. No one needed surgery. The picture frame was moderately affected because—fun fact—tomato soup is apparently “slightly acidic”. But His Honour Christopher Hehir reacted very differently, jailing one young woman for more than two years and the other for 20 months.
