  1. Those are sky blue bibs, surely. And the blue away kit of the early 80's is outstanding.
  2. As is every prime minister we have had over the last 30 years, they have all set the stage for the current mess Labour are exasperating.
  3. I personally think it's ugly as sin, far too bulbous and gawky to be anything near good looking.
  4. Good god i'm agreeing with Stanley about something!!!! Not sure what to feel right now....
  5. Yeah, pretty basic stuff. The squad is young but needed supplimenting with senior players, 50/50 is the right ratio. The youth talent will sustain the club in future but championship survival is a must in the mean time. That was the gist of it.
  6. I would ride her like seabiscuit.
  7. Behind the team, yes? Behind Lowe and Wilde? F*ck no.
  8. Like Middlesborough! Oh......

    RIP car

    Southampton to Liverpool in December 2004 with my mate in tow. Both of us in a decrepid Rover 115 SD hammering up the A34/M40/M6. Appalling traffic, sh*t weather and the windscreen jets ran out of water. Had to stop many times to get the window clear! Took the mother of all cross country rat runs to avoid the M62/M6 junction, under up going via Crewe, Northwich and Runcorn. Made it with time to spare after all that only for my mate nearly denied admitence for having a can of Cider in his bag! Oh, and we lost 1-0......
  10. True, regardless of how unsustainable they may have been though, it's well and truly f**ked their promotion chances, totally undermining the work they have been doing.
  11. They were doing quite well! Bizare.
  12. If by that you mean that a big 'thing' is made of it rather then letting people get on and watch the episode I agree. It's rediculous self gratifying sh*t the way organisations can come over as holier then thou just because they have played an equality card.

    There is a very real difference between designers and draughsmen though. A good designer will need a sound grounding in engineering, if not full on experience in engineering himself. A draughsman or CAD operator does not, they just need to bring the concepts to realisation.

    Absolutely. There is a massive shortfall of personel in parts of the engineering sector, but the drive is for experienced engineers, not freshfaced nieve yet enthusiastic ones.
  15. Incorrect! ha. Damn Inter though, would have been quids in had they come through.

    Absolutely bang on! I spent 4 years of my life both by study and vocation to become an engineer by degree and society as a whole in this country views you on par with a tyre fitter for it. I havn't received chartered status yet but it is something I am aiming for. It's a real bugbear of mine this. On the continent you would be viewed to be professional like a doctor or as you say solicitor, this clouding of the term is a real insult.
  17. Thoughts? Betting is for losers. Which is why I have a fiver on Arsenal, Inter and Coventry.
  18. +2, Fantastic idea.
  19. Idiot, The Supporter's Party for removal of SFC's Cretinous Directors is the way forward.
  20. I propose myself. Purely because it needs someone as arrogant and single minded as Lowe in order to make any difference to things and get our points across.
  21. An utterly brilliant book. One of my all time favourites.

    Q) In the United Kingdom, what is the difference between an Engineer and a technician? A) **** all. And no wonder engineering has a bad reputation in this country as a result. :mad: For a starting role 12k is more then respectable though, I was paid that during my placement year with an automotive supplier, challenging but good work.
  23. Same difference, the amount of driving I do another 20-30 miles are meaningless.
  24. It's a good 220 miles round trip from Cov. But I don't go as much as I would like to due to money, I can't afford the 80 odd quid per game (Fuel 30 quid, Food 8 quid, Beer and other drinks 10 quid, Ticket 25 quid etc.)
  25. That is high-larious. Especially the part 'make as much noise as you want when we score.' Erm, Middlesborough rarely score at the moment...... What do they want, a replica of the Emirates!?
