Tis a dirty cabal.

Hot smooth Dijon is lovely. Have it with chilli pickled onions to test your ring's stamina.

Is it possible that AA is upsizing the debt as much as possible to ensure that the HMRC element is less than 25% so that HMRC are unable to contest a CVA application?
-
A well made point. I'm a Chelsea supporter tonight. Never thought I'd say that!
-
I suspect Carlisle would be perfectly happy to have a squad of Saints size, depth and experience and be hit by an injury crisis!
-
Tempted to large my £1.5m on three players in an attempt to stay in V and then sell them afterwards... thoughts?

Telegraph article again. As he moves into an uncertain future, Storrie takes heart from the messages of support. "I had a lovely text from David Gill. I want to stay in football. I've a lot to give. I had a phone call from someone saying: 'it wouldn't surprise me if you get a call from the Government, who want to look into the financial structures of football'. I'm not sure whether Telegraph writer Henry Winter or Peter Storrie is the bigger fool.

A fair assessment.

Apart from Pompey which other club out there do you not like and why?
TopGun replied to dune's topic in General Sports
Chelsea, Man City and any other team that tries to buy success and steal other team's players. -
As administrator AA has to walk a tight rope with a good face in public. He knows what he is doing and knows he faces a tough task. I think any other administrator would do the same. He can't pull the wool over people's eyes in the way Jacobs and Storrie tried to do.

It's really not good enough after the cash spent though. We need a proper midfielder at CCC level who can run a game at L1 next season. Without that we will continue to suffer from inconsistency... i.e dropped points.
-
Hmmm... we really need this. Hope AP has a few ideas.
-
Indeed. To turn your point around, can you name a manager who categorically would do better than Brown in exactly the same situation?
-
I thought he did a good job. Not sure anyone would do better at Hull.

Don't count your chickens yet. There will be legal battles for a while yet. In all sorts of ways.
-
Dramatic and naive. Courts have purposes.
-
It's a nice way of letting him go without sacking him. They need him for the financial mop up.
-
This will be the intention no doubt. But I think it would be hard to get planning permission for land elsewhere.

Had an argument once with an officious customs official over the tax on a bottle of brandy that was bought in Andorra which is not in the EU.
-
In any case companies like UK Coal don't want to go to the expense of new deep mining. They'd far rather run open cast mines which are much cheaper although very controversial in terms of environment.

Storrie Keeps his job, 85 ordinary people lose theirs... Discuss...

Probably to help unravel the history of the mess. -
If you checked it out you'd discover that all virtually power sources have benefitted from subsidies when first introduced. The point of it is to act as a catalyst to spur adoption and technology on. Have you considered the subsidy that nuclear receives in terms of money spent by the NDA to clear up contaminated sites and store radioactive waste? Now that is massive. I normally have good respect for WG's views but it frustrates me when people bleat out the same old fallacies about wind within a wider mix.

Spinach is ok but it is not as good with cheese as cauliflower or brocolli.

I work about 400 yards from OT so left work early tonight to avoid congestion. There were already loads of unlicensed street vendors selling yellow & green scarves and loads of people paying £5 to wear one! Excellent black market cash only trade!

Yeah, not me Dune. Only thing buried near me is landfill which is another thing we need to reduce. I'm all in favour of Energy from Waste (incineration) plants like Marchwood also. Germany has a good gig there but in many places here where such proposals get put forward, a strong protest group forms that scares locals by haranguing them outside supermarkets with nonsense about air quality effects. Incineration has a bad record in the past but that was before the introduction of proven emissions abatement techniques. Marchwood is an excellent example of energy from waste that is well within EU and Environment Agency air quality standards.
