Crap beer.. Not that I ever have any these days, I get my pre-match sedatives in early.. :-)

It'll be an old photo of whatsisface (ah yes, Milan) on a JCB with a bit of photoshopping Mac, sorry.

Doesn't look like any of the examples shown would fit Charlie Austin..

I'm sure I've read or been told by a coach somewhere that throw-ins are one of the situations in which teams are most likely to give the ball away. But I recall years ago shouting at our players at throw-ins to "move!", so it's certainly nothing new. Having said that we still need to improve. We were actually practising them at my team's last session which was back on our home pitch under natural light: a useful exercise as we realised one of our recent recruits can get it into the area on our narrowish pitch. As pointed out above it would be useful if we too could occasionally use longer throws to be slightly less predictable, so V or JB would need to take more throws, otherwise them trotting over would be a sure fire sign it will be going long. Waiting for the usual full back to take all the time also allows the opposition to get in position and a bit of quick thinking by somebody near to the ball might end up being profitable.

Mods!

Must admit this thought occurred to me too. I think the crowd is pretty realistic in respect of transferred players: most know the score. Incidentally, something I learned at S.U.S.U. meetings in the 70's. Hissing is far more effective and unsettling than booing. Go on, give it a try. (Possibly not against Spurs where I believe it can be misconstrued..)

Did anybody else laugh at this satirical post?

I remember him as he stopped playing well and was obviously angling for a move, or at least that was my opinion at the time. We took him out of non-league football but I've never heard him mention us once. Mind you, not having a TV means I may have missed the occasion!

Let's hope it's a celebratory hangover! I don't get drunk when I'm depressed so all mine are celebratory! Here's hoping..

Does your user name refer to the team at that time or you? :-) Or both?

Oh gawd, I now feel old. For an additional Liverpool connection does "ale house brawlers" ring a bell? :-)

Danbert, worth mentioning again but you have to be a bit quicker to be up-to-date with this thread! Have a look earlier...

Pens!

Hah! Colin will implode.The Gyardian live feed: "I am not certain Neil Warnock respects the democratic will authority of the officials. " :-)

All local football is off round here and everybody is down the pub watching, but going there and jumping up and down when Sunderland score is probably not a good idea, and schadenfreude is not a virtuous feeling. If enjoyable.. Radio Solent it is then..

Aargh, glad you wrote that as I hadn't realised it had been changed. I'd better start changing my social arrangements...

It's even worse listening to the live commentary on the radio! And breathe..

I was bored to tears with my IT job years ago and accepted voluntary redundancy. Probably been on 50% or less of that salary ever since but have never regretted the move. It did help having the mortgage virtually paid, and I would assume the poor love has savings and other things he could do for income and self-respect.

I thought his name was Factless Allen..

I'm sure you do, I was just feeling a bit cynical. Use the auction facility and not the buy it now and find out! There's a load of chancers on ebay and prices asked at times seem purely random. I'd suggest you'd get more like £50 unless a bidding war starts.

Latest from another article regarding the two aircraft: they both didn't have an angle of attack indicator which is an optional extra.. 'The angle of attack indicator will remain an optional extra that airlines can buy, according to the New York Times report. “They’re critical, and cost almost nothing for the airlines to install,” Bjorn Fehrm, an analyst at the aviation consultancy Leeham, told the newspaper. “Boeing charges for them because it can. But they’re vital for safety" '

I get the impression with Mo that he's aware he's not cutting it on the pitch and I didn't with Hoedt. That's the only tangible grounds for optimism I can hold on to. Maybe he'll spend a summer like Redmond and come back improved and stronger; we can but hope.

Thanks. I think that's the point I meant, allowing the input of the pilot, whereas in the recent cases it seems the system thought it knew best. In the Staines crash I referred to the crew incorrectly over-ruled the stall warnings. The dynamics in the recent case seem more complicated.

You should have a look at the 'Southampton Women' thread which went seriously off-topic.I did at least get my full bingo card of posters/expected responses. Funny how they post on subjects they're not interested in.
