It's the fairest tax to raise, IMO. The rich pay more because they spend more, and vice versa.

I think Junction 9 (he's a member on here) fixed Wiltshire Saint's dishwasher not long ago.

Out of interest; What was the right console?

I think we're going to see more of the same tomorrow. Slovenia will stick 11 behind the ball, I reckon.

No it doesn't. It sounds like he was told to apologise before SWF melted down out of disgust.

All are on. BBC are using BBC1 and BBC3. ITV are using ITV1 and ITV4. You get to choose which match you'd like to watch.

Laughing at the demise of the French is a pretty dangerous game considering the next 24 hours.

That just suggests that the minimum sentences for other crimes aren't high enough.

Handling explosives, IMO.

Until Spain get knocked out.

Have you ever tried telling them apart on CCTV though?

Wasn't Cole injured for most of the season?

TBF, Lamps had the benefit of the meeting having happened before he was asked about it.

This was no "French Revolution", ffs. He answered questions posed by journalists at, what I imagine was, a sanctioned press conference.

He only said, "I'm sure if Joe Cole came on he would do a job." or words to that effect. Hardly histrionics, is it? And I'm no Terry fan, by any stretch. I agree that discretion would have been the better part of valour, in his positiion, but to call for his head is ridiculous.

Stu, you're taking this way too personally. Surely how grown men go about their business, and the consequences thereof, is up to them?

Hang on a sec. We WERE sh*t on Friday and 99% of fans would've been screaming for Joe Cole to come on but Terry says he would recommend it too and suddenly he has to go home?

They've probably been locked up for their own safety. If they're stupid enough to throw coins and other missiles, in front of the police and their cameras, then they're certainly stupid enough to run whilst holding a pair of scissors or stick a knife in a toaster.

Well, he is, of course. I mean, have you never seen him play before? But, I agree, he's woefully out of sorts in this World Cup. Personally, I'd rest him against the Slovenians and play Crouch and Defoe up front, for the first half at least. I'd also rest Heskey, by sending him back to England.

Not seeing it, dune.

I only see "interested" once, in the original and in the quote.

I bet he's ****ing glad he didn't.

Someone more cynical than me would probably say, "Yeah, yeah. We've heard all that before."

Tough(ish) first few games. I don't expect us to cruise to the top and stay there from day 1.

Ah, I see. The noises coming from HMRC suggest different but then I wouldn't trust the HMRC as far as I could throw them. In fact, it's pretty galling having to cheer them on in this instance. It's only cos it's Pompey.
