bridge too far

I wonder if Mr Fry will cancel his contract, realising that there's no way in a million years he could sell that load of **** in a million years as a football team?

19C obviously has a multi-personality disorder. To name but one.

And that is why, at 7.30pm last night, I posted this: I suppose, with hindsight, the salient point is that it is not a quote but reportage? I don't think calling me 'a silly moo' adds dignity to your posts, do you? Ar$ehole

From the OP: Luton director Stephen Browne admits the club are prepared to take legal action against the Football League if they fail to dock points from Southampton I suppose, with hindsight, the salient point is that it is not a quote but reportage?

Wes - I think you and I must wear the same glasses. The sort that help us read sentences and understand them.

But we only pay him peanuts :confused:

But didn't we try a half-hearted whimper last season when Sheffield were allegedly fielding an illegal player (something to do with the number of loanees allowed to play in a match)?

You don't. We're talking about Mukesh Ambani. So there

And he's an erstwhile chairman of Leeds and led them out of administration, apparently. I didn't know this.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mukesh_Ambani 5th on the Forbes list apparently. I'm sure his name's been bandied about on here before.

Just a guess. It's usually the way with little men. The only thing big about them are the chips on their shoulders.

He's just a small time business man whose ego is bigger than any of his appendages, apart from his head. I can't believe that anyone would take him seriously.

This news scares me too. Surely Mr Fry would look at LLS's past 'endeavours' and realise that he's not very good at this sort of thing (c*ck up at Bournemouth springs to mind) and not take him seriously? I do hope so.

There is a difference though. Police officers are supposed to uphold law and order. They are supposed to NOT use unreasonable force in the execution of their duties. They are supposed to NOT judge people unless there is clear evidence that those people have committed a crime. They are supposed to NOT carry out punishment. They failed in their duties.

Is he now LifeLong White?

I'm not going to generalise, but I have no doubt that some officers get a kick out of violence and let this override their common sense. I'm not going to generalise because one of my best mates is an officer in the Met. I would be shocked to the core if he'd reacted in the way that those officers did because he's a strong but gentle man. There are violent thugs in all walks of society, unfortunately.

That's exactly the sort of programme I would hope to see

And you've now judged him to be not innocent eh? Without knowing any facts (as opposed to conjecture)? I always thought it was a basic right in this country to walk home from work by whichever route you fancied. I didn't realise that you might die doing that. I think it's significant that the enquiry has been taken out of police hands and I'm also pleased about that. Another post mortem has been requested too. Maybe we'll get the truth this time.

I imagine they'll do a very high level review of the offers and then shortlist / interview perhaps 3 or 4 that they consider to be goers. At that point, I imagine they'll do an in-depth analysis and due diligence.

Rebus is a fictional detective and Ian Rankin has written a whole load of books featuring him. There's also been a series on TV with Ken Stott as Rebus. Here's a link: http://www.scotland.org.uk/features/rebus_tours_230502.htm Also there's part of Edinburgh that's underground - this area was later built over but parts of it can now be visited. I'm sure this featured in one of the Rebus novels but I might be mistaken. http://www.bbc.co.uk/legacies/heritage/scotland/lothian/article_1.shtml I don't know anything about a shopping outlet - sorry. I had my hair cut quite short. I'm not sure I like it TBH

Why would she want to go to strip clubs :confused:

I was hearing yesterday that the bottom had fallen out of the art market. Just our bloody luck

:shock: My jellies are well and truly jarred!

Wow I'd love to do that - I'm a big Ian Rankin / Rebus fan. Hey Pip - there's great shopping in Princes Street. Did you get your hair cut in the end? You got me thinking and I've now had mine all chopped off (well, not all, but you know what I mean).

Maybe he didn't hear them? After all, he wasn't a protestor - he was, quite simply, going home after work. De Menezez also didn't do what he was 'asked' to do. If you're innocent, you don't really expect the police to shout instructions at you, do you? The Met's first obligation is to protect the individual, whether on his/her own or in a crowd. And uphold the law? What law were they upholding, exactly?
