  1. I`m currently reading "Selling Your Fathers Bones" by Brian Schofield. It`s a superb re-telling of the flight of Chief Joseph and the Nez Perce from their tribal land into Canada. As well as telling the story, Schofield also follows the trail himself and alternates the history with a modern day narrative on the land that they fled through. Excellent reading.
  2. Will be seeing Alistair McGowan, Milton Jones, Stewart Francis and Lee Mack in the next few months. Saw Dave Gorman a couple of weeks ago. Most enjoyable.
  3. I LMFAO at the filled stadium mock up picture in the link! Is that 20,000 skates and 16,000 away fans! lol :smt040 Aha! The re-appearance of the Giant Bedpan!!

  6. It`s amazing that one man - Westwood - seems to exert so much influence in the ground.
  7. I can't quite understand why there appears to be no official "statement" regarding the lack of signings (Jaidi excepted) considering AP indicated that we might expect 3 bodies incoming.
  8. Do you mean that you are not a ST holder???? Not supporting the club financially in their time of need??[-X:smt107
  9. http://www.mrsackroyd.com/bioles.htm The man is hilarious, esp good live.
  10. Not quite in the same class but this is not bad either :- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05ip-N0H1Ig
  11. Just looked at their new programme. Looks good. Highlight for me Oysterband in December. http://www.the-brook.com/
  12. Lives of Others and Pans Labyrinth are two of the finest films of modern times. Stay with them!!
  13. I have never actually taken drugs, but after reading this thread, I imagine the effects are similar!
  14. How many people that went on Tuesday thought that we would have won with a better referee?? Isn`t AP allowed the same opinion??
  15. There is a world of difference between "excuses" and "reasons".
  16. To be totally frank - neither do I!!!
  17. EARWIG O (Les Barker) Little Mrs Earwig, she had a little son. She called the baby Earwig A, for he was number one. The second she called Earwig B. Earwig C came next. D and E soon followed, then F as you'd expect. G and H were subsequent. I and J came then. K, L and M were triplets, but who followed Earwig N? Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O. In the Insects league cup final, he gave the crowd a treat. He gave the stick insects some stick. Earwig O could not be beat-o. His first goal was a header, and his second sewed it up. His third made it a hat-trick. Epsom Earwigs won the cup! All the grasshoppers were chanting, all the spiders hand in hand in hand in hand in hand in hand in hand in hand, As they sung the Earwig anthem, and it echoed round the stand: Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O. Little Mrs Earwig, I wonder if you know That your fifteenth little offspring is the famous Earwig O? "Earwig O" they sing at Wembley, "Earwig O" at White Hart Lane, At the Oval, and Old Trafford, "Earwig O Wig O" again. "Earwig O" they chant at Chelsea, and the Royal Albert Hall. Some talk of Alexander Beetle, but the greatest of them all... Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O. Little Mrs Earwig, does it fill your heart with joy? When they sing about your son-o, do you whisper "That's my boy"? Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O. Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O, Earwig O. Just transcribed from a tape of the BBC Radio 2 programme 'Mrs Ackroyd Explores Her Roots' from about 10 years ago! I always knew they'd come in useful sometime, if I kept them long enough!
  18. I suppose only time will tell. IF they are on the same slippery slope as we have been on then I don`t envy them at all. At least we have , I hope, bottomed-out and are slowly on the way back up. If they manage to stay up and re-establish themselves in the Prem then that`s a different matter!
  19. David James next to go?? http://www.mailonsunday.co.uk/sport/football/article-1209971/James-quit-crisis-club-Pompey-prepare-lose-England-star.html
  20. Les Barker has a lot to answer for!

  22. We are currently 11 points from safety. Survival would be acceptable this season. Anything else would be a bonus. I would love us to be in the play-offs, but AP hasn`t even finished building his team yet. We have to be realistic.
  23. :confused::confused::confused:
