  1. Not a happy bunny and I agree with him 100%. It's not right to ask the fans to front up money but, by the same token, if anyone wants to voluntarily contribute that should be applauded too.
  2. I don't think the OP is referring to the specifics of each tenure, rather the fact that they all seem to spend more time pointing the finger of blame than doing anything proactive. Fair play, Crouch seems to have taken the high ground lately - asking everyone to support the club rather than harp on about whose fault it is - but historically he's as culpable as anyone else.
  3. Sounds more and more like he's going to attempt another Lazarus.
  4. We didn't. MLT did though.
  5. Agreed.
  6. LOL, "Koontz" sounds a bit like "C*nts".
  7. Indeed, whilst Leon was p*ssing the overdraft up the wall it's fair to say he didn't take a penny for himself.
  8. Stelling is on The One Show now. It'll be interesting to see if we get a mention.
  9. Buy a big dog.
  10. True, about 10 years ago I lost a DVD from Blockbusters and they wanted £80 to replace it. Fortunately I found it but in the meantime they'd shown me the invoices for some of their discs and they were paying about £70 themselves - there was a tenner or so in admin charges for losing it.
  11. I think that's Cumbria tbh mate. Hampshire does have the largest unbroken forest in the UK though, so kudos for that.
  12. What?
  13. Just invite people round your house but charge them £6 for a mandatory can of Coke.
  14. I'm not arguing anything - in fact, I wouldn't want to see the art sold to buy the stadium - I was just clarifying your conjecture. There may be two pieces worth £30m between them, or there may be 800 small pieces worth the same. Neither is 20% of the collection though as I don't think art should be ranked on a perceived value.
  15. Assuming every piece has the same value.
  16. True, certainly regarding RBR who look very good, but it's worth pointing out that the diffuser itself is only part of the equation. Dramatically improving the aero grip at the back will allow teams to reduce the mechanical grip by fitting stiffer suspension and placing less ballast there. The ride height can be lowered because the suspension is stiffer, which improves the aero grip even more and the ballast can be placed freely at other areas nearer the centre of gravity. It's an almost exponential set of improvements, it's not simply a case of "Ooh, more grip from that diffuser". There's a certain amount of 'dumbing down' done for the casual viewer and in reality the knock on effects of running an entirely different floor are huge.
  17. The World's tallest woman is a bloke? Norris McWhirter is not going to like that!
  18. You and Rattlehead may never see eye to eye but please take a long, hard look at the posts of the bloke you defended with that statement.
  19. Madness.
  20. I'm not sure of your point here. If you clarify your stance on naturalised citizens from the Indian subcontinent I'd be grateful.
  21. You're sinking to a new low here Jill.
  22. I'd suggest a lawyer, if anything.
  23. Yeah, with Austria being the most exciting country in Europe an' all.
  24. Ottery, please lay off the "Rupert's babes" crap with any poster whose opinion is not identical to yours. It's worn very thin and the man himself is history.
  25. No worries.
