But what a chance for the nippers!

Spoil sport.

Just off to the local. Then a taxi ride to the Stadium at about 2. Safe journey to all those travelling up, fingers crossed that the kids are alright!

Good shout! But born in Ormskirk. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robbie_Slater

Why? He played senior football for the club and was a product of the academy?

Scott McDonald? Born in Melbourne

A bit of both really!

Know your enemy.

I've been looking forward to this, another chance to get one over my 'dear neighbours.' I assume we are playing the kids today, will be good to see how they get on. Hope Ward-Prowse is given a run out.

He was a good looking talent, I was equally dissapointed. It was Oscar's choice though, I doubt he has any regrets.

Really? Genuinely laughable if he is.

Yes, best enjoy the mascots while we still can.

Well, that's all dependant on your starting viewpoint mate.

First impressions in the public mind can be everything. He is a dead duck.

The next election should be a real imagination capturer. You have the pompous one, the liar and the geek. Take your pick.

I saw Lee Turner score an identical goal for Margate against either Folkestone or Bashley at Hartsdown Park in 1999. Defender laid it to him and he just hammered it.

If as reported earlier he's going home straight after his work permit is cleared, then we should probably just wait for the Forest game.

I am in no way saying that things are perfect at the moment. The crux of my point though is that due to the nature of humanity itself, there will never be a solution that is 100% effective for 100% of everyone alive. The one thing through history that has been consistent is our own 'inhumanity' towards each other.

And vagueness of defining humanity within the models you are suggesting is exactly the point mate! While there can be systems and processes that could seem to cater for all of societies needs, the constantly evolving and organic nature of the human race would mean that no system, no matter how adaptable, no matter how impossibly clever and sophisticated would ever, ever be able to anticipate, placate, control or encourage the inhabitants within to totally accept and go with it.

Yeah, so odd that a football forum wish to discuss our transfer movements and future transfer potentials.

How do you cater for personality? The infinate different potential combinations that make each individual person utterly unique in every way?

You are treating society as a mathematic equation. Humanity as a one dimensional simply satisfiable and placatable entity. And for that reason, i'm out.

You are an idealist, that I admire. Your naivety is however an issue.

That'll do nicely. A relaxed pub saturday.

As proven by both extremes of society currently. They both have one thing in common, it's humanity playing the system for it's own selfish benefit. Humanity is defined by it's own inheirent flaws. The things that make us great as a species are equally defined by the things that make us repugnant.
