I don't see what Poland in the 1930's has got to do with anything but there was a lot of meddling between the two countries and Russia prior to WW1, as for Jim Jong-Il, I don't see why a small island of the northern coast of Europe should bother him if we leave him alone. As for Desert Storm and Afganistan - I'm sure the US and NATO could handle both those without us being involved. I don't think we should run crying to the Yanks but we should look at the worldwide situation and use it to our advantage, of course having no nukes has a risk but the likelihood of them being needed in today's world is so remote it doesn't warrant wasting billions on.

Waste of money IMO, the best and cheapest deterrent would be to stop meddling in other countries affairs and stop starting wars in middle eastern sh!t-holes. All this crap about Russia, China and Iran is just paranoid nonsense. Anyway, if they started a war on anywhere in Europe the US would rip them a new arsehole, it would be WW3 and game over regardless of how many nukes we have.

That's how it appears to me, this 'youtube' stye of policing is what helped turn London into a war-zone last week. It might be an effective way of catching people but I would prefer it if my safety wasn't put at risk for the sake of their stats. If it kicks-off seriously on that footbridge over the railway its a disaster waiting to happen IMO.

She should be promoted for doing that, watching p!ssed up ***ts get slapped by fat moody old bints can only add value to the matchday experience.

The police really are thick as f*ck, after what happened during the first half anyone with half a brain could see they should have been held back for half an hour. It's not hard to see how the London riots kicked off with dumb ***ts like that supposedly in charge of law and order.

4 years inside for posting on facebook! You can bet your life the judge who sentenced them doesn't have the faintest clue about what social network sites are about. I expect it was just be some old c*nt who read somewhere that the riots were arranged online and thought those kids were behind the whole thing.

Great stuff, I'm not his biggest fan but he clearly has potential to be good.

What a load of b*ll*x, none of it matters, except to a few sad tossers who believe it does.

You get the impression the judges have been handing out severe punishments because they've been in a sh!t mood because of all the extra hours they've had to put in. Hopefully a few more will be let out. We all want criminals punished but having an unfair justice system just creates more problems than it solves IMO.

All the posts on here are bullsh!t, it depends what you do.

I think the statistical gems you are after are these... 1994/1995 - Championship - av attendance: 8,269 1995/1996 - Championship - av attendance: 9,407 1996/1997 - Championship - av attendance: 8,854 Basically when pompey have a boycott similar to ours their support drops to AFC Bournemouth levels.

They just showed a police chase on Sky, car chased by rozzers for ages, rammed police cars and other traffic, went wrong way up motorway almost causing pile up, got out and rucked with coppers - 16 months inside. Make a stupid post on facebook about riots - 4 years. Justice like that is not going to help anyone, it will give the moronic rioters more reasons to feel picked on and alienated. The kid who's gonna spend the next 4 years getting butt-raped might as well just right his life off. He will probably turn into a hardened crim which will help no one. We all want the idiots punished but kneejerk sentencing encouraged by hypocritical MPs is retarded.

You could always try comparing like for like. Last time we played Reading in the Championship the attendance was 20,142.

Good stuff, what the betting these new contracts have a hefty promotion bonus included. Makes sense - give the players a stake in the clubs future and they will work their asses off for the team. I like the way Cortese does this - the complete opposite of Lowe who used to wait until their existing contract was almost up just to save a few quid.

Some of the sentences have been barmy when compared to what rapists etc get. 4 years for posting on facebook is just plain wrong. It's amazing how swift and harsh the penalties are considering how long it took to get some MPs to trial and how soft they were treated.

Massive result, to respond like that after conceding twice is amazing.

I'm too young to have seen Rodrigues, I would say Jimmy Case is the best in my era. If anyone gave our young players any grief he would sort them out. Plus he always seemed to have a good relationship with the ref and get away with murder.

There is no way we will pay £6mill, Cortese is no mug. We've probably offered about 3-4, they say they want 6, Cortese knows he just has to sit and wait before they accept his offer because no one will pay £6mill.

What like the fragment of Shehzad Tanweer's shin bone found in Philip Duckworth's eye?

I like a good conspiracy theory but that is even worse than the 9/11 one. For starters Canary Warf is over 5 miles from St Cross, you can't go 5 yards in London without appearing on some form of CCTV. And Police can't just gun people down in London Docklands in broad daylight and not get noticed, especially on a day when everyone would be a nervous wreck after the bombings. bonkers

Are the schools any good around Shirley? Every time I drive through the place it looks full of chavs and srotes.

The 9/11 conspiracies are all obviously b*ll*x, I watched 2mins of that 7/7 one and turned off - could somone put their idea across in bullet points to save me wasting an hour of my life.

Bursledon/Hamble is nice if you want the outskirts. Some good pubs and you can go sailing with other posh people.

You are just getting carried away, we've won two Championship games, virtually every team that ever gets promoted has a honeymoon period. Were Blackpool one of the best teams in the prem because they were at the top after two games? To say this team is better than Strach's is laughable.

It's because the middle class have more than their fare share of greedy scum. If anything I expect a higher percentage of the middle class kids caught got were let off without charge. that's usually the case. The black council estate kid gets a truncheon over the head and chucked in the meat waggon, the middle class white kid gets told to go home to mummy and daddy or they'll be in trouble.
