    The best ever what if. The fantastic Leeds United logo being used. Never has a logo been so iconic not been used.

    Princess Diana lives

    She lives, quadraspazzed on a life glug, slowly forgotten as the press get bored so the Duke of Edinburgh can pull the plug.

    That's the revised Craig Whyte story up. Put it on the writing forum.

    I'll do a proper version of it.

    The Whyte Knight. There were moments of doubt. When Malmo equalised during the Champions League Qualifier with ten minutes to go, it seemed that Rangers European Adventure was set to come to a close. The Swedes had not countered for a moment of sheer magic from Nikita Jelavic who scored from an...

    I wrote two on the other place. One about Sky going bust and the effects of it on the Premier League and one about Craig Whyte saving Rangers. Will see if I can find them in morning.

    What if Murdo Fraser won?

    Ruth Davidson achieved a combination of being personable whilst at the same time mobilising the Unionist voters in the same way the SNP mobilised the yessirs. Bear in mind, 2015 was a shock, destroying 56 years of Labour dominance in Scotland. In this scenario, the SNP would be less able to...

    What if Murdo Fraser won?

    I started but it lacked detail and never really got off the ground. There could have been a continuity Tory Party, but likely wouldn't. It has been on my mind for a while to do it properly, but doubt there would be that much interest tbh. I still think that a CSU-style Scottish Tory Party in...

    I started it but quickly realised how broad the scope was and how difficult it would be so abandoned it. If I were to revisit the idea it would be far more recent with the FAW refusing consent for any Welsh club to continue in the English leagues when the League of Wales was founded. This was...

    Lists of Heads of Government and Heads of State

    Was looking for elderly, relatively centrist politician. To be honest, one of three I struggled with. Bear in mind, Kinnock failed twice in 1987, 1992, He has the record of losing when going for high office too.
