  1. Its not just errant ordnance though.... - "February 17, 2012 - Kunar Raid - Six civilians, including a woman and a child were killed in a night raid in Dewa Gul Valley, in the Chawki district of Kunar province" - "March 11, 2012 – Kandahar massacre - At least 16 civilians, including women and children were killed after a 'rogue' US serviceman entered their homes and began to open fire in the Afghan province of Kandahar" - "April 6, 2011 – British troops accidentally killed two Afghan women in a car accident and shot dead a civilian man when an angry crowd attempted to prevent them from leaving" - "March 1, 2011 – U.S. helicopter gunners killed nine Afghan boys ages 7–13 who were collecting firewood. A tenth boy was injured in the attack - "February 2011 – A probe by Afghan government investigators concluded that 65 civilians, including 50 women and children, were killed in a Nato operation in Kunar province. Nato disputed the claim but Obama apologized for the incident" - "February 12, 2010 – 5 Afghan civilians including two pregnant women and a teenage girl were killed when US special forces raided a house in Khataba village, outside the city of Gardez where dozens of people had gathered at the home to celebrate the naming of a newborn baby. The U.S troops tried to cover-up evidence of the botched raid and admitted only month later that they had killed the civilians. - "July 27, 2008 – Canadian troops opened fire on a vehicle that came too close to a Canadian convoy in Kandahar. A two-year-old girl and her four-year-old brother were killed and the father of the two children was wounded" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civilian_casualties_in_the_War_in_Afghanistan_(2001%E2%80%93present)#Civilian_and_overall_casualties_.282012.29
  2. Yes, definitely. 100% - I'm not condoning it in any way shape or form. The whole thing (war on terror) is a terrible terrible mess.
  3. How anyone can carry out such a wickedly depraved atrocity is far beyond my comprehension, but......there are others who are equally as wicked.... http://www.salon.com/2011/08/12/pakistan_drones_children/
  4. Exactly!
  5. Well, give them credit where its due....the Skates have managed to produce and EXACT replica of the Fratton Park pitch, at their training ground. Don't think many L2 teams could do that !!!

To be honest both the pitches both looked rather cut up and boggy !! The word in the gym recently was that there is a problem with drainage in some areas - watch this space[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE]
  6. Don't enjoy cooking at all, I see food a a fuel source and that's it. Still waiting for a pill to be developed that gives you all your basic requirements, and makes you feel full up !!! The US government should be experimenting with that out in the gulf, not a frickin' laser beam.

Members felt it was the manager's call. Motion to look at ways to raise the PST share back to 51% was supported - a mistake in my view. Funding of major stadium improvements won't be achieved this way. It emerged that putting the PST share back to 51% would cost the £25k in audit fees (to do with complexity of group accounts). Balance sheet provided by the club for information didn't balance ...[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE]
  8. Hi, thinking about going to the Philippines in Feb/March 2015 and wanted to know if anyone has any good info? looking at a 2 week stay, with one week in a place that has loads to do (bars, activities, etc) and one week in a quiet place where there's fcck all. Heard good and bad things about Boracay, just wondering if anyone has any suggestions, just me and the Mrs, no kids! cheers!
  9. Don't mention the war. I mentioned it once, but I think I got away with it.
  10. Dont want to detract too much from the OP, but the aim of the bowler is to get the batsman out, there are 10 ways of doing this. A bouncer is part of the bowlers armory, and would dilute the game if outlawed. Hughes had swerved the previous 6 bouncers, but (sadly)decided to play this one. Terrible terrible news, absolutely shocking.
  11. Tyrone Mings at Ipswich
  12. Oh god, don't use the term "allrounder", Sour Mash didn't like it when I used a cricketing term.....didn't have the heart to tell him where "Hattrick" came from.
  13. Was listening to talk****e on the way to work this morning when Alan Brazil spoke about rumours he had heard from various Spurs sources. Apparently, Daniel Levy is constantly texting poch about why isnt he playing certain players, and questioning team selection. Also, a few of the players arent happy with poch and want to leave as a result........and that Poch could be gone in Jan. Brazil made a point of the fact that this has come from various sources. Funny as, if true!
  14. I see the clique are getting back together. Just when the mong board was starting to show signs of improvement, even new posters were tempted to post their views.....back to the dark old days methinks.
  15. Work starts the 24th of November......apparently. http://www.portsmouthfc.co.uk/news/article/new-car-park-information-2080643.aspx Although, this only mentions a nice new car park......could be a while before a supermarket operates on the site.
  16. This should be made into a nice plaque and installed into the home dressing room at SMS “I have absolutely no sympathy for Southampton. They have a choice as a club. They don’t have to sell. They had that choice. Maybe Southampton’s objectives have changed. They were on course to be a *Champions League club, I believe, but, obviously, that has changed" Brendan Rodgers, Aug'14
  17. Ooo, get you.
  18. There you go, corrected.
  19. You spent the last 5 years betting against the team you supposedly support? Weird. And no, it's got nothing to do with that.
  20. Maybe this thread can become the new HCDAJFU / Jan window rumours thread. Whilst its important to get decent cover for Pelle, I would also like to see this happen. http://sportwitness.ning.com/forum/topics/southampton-on-sunday-transfer-mission-for-chelsea-target Although we face competiton from Arsenal and Chelsea
  21. That is exactly what I'm hoping is happening.....were showing them that we also have some muscles to flex.
  22. That link is an absolute must read for any nutjob, or indeed, anyone suffering from depression.

  24. Just playing devils advocate here, but GC does go on to explain why Skrtel gets the nod... "Martin Skrtel saved Liverpool's skin twice in a fixture where both teams struggled to defend at times. He kept them in the game in the first half having kicked the ball off the line and stopping it from ending up in the net.He then saved his team for a second time to stop them going two down with another amazing clearance as Liverpool looked to be losing their grip on the game. Thanks to Skrtel Liverpool went on to beat QPR and leave them anchored to the foot of the table in an extraordinary game of football." Compare to Toby and Jose who, by no fault of their own, did relatively little.
