  1. Am I right in thinking that 'August Skate' is actually wearing another teams shirt ? You can see the lady with legs akimbo on the side but from that angle, obviously not the Gobshyte logo, it just looks a different colour to me ! Might be wrong but I wouldn't put it past them to fill the space with a ringer !!
  2. http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/gabor-weighing-up-pompey-exit-1-4593394 Looks like the rats are about to desert the sinking ship ? (He is probably their best player I think!)
  3. I think that anyone who called for him to be sacked a few games ago should not be allowed an opinion on this thread ! You should be talking about whoever you wanted him replaced with !!!
  4. I realise that it is not in the spirit of your OP, but why don't you go to the doctor ??
  5. £25 without additional fees is a fair market price IMHO ! The biggest rip-off actually is a replica shirt which, even with a generous retail mark-up, should be no more than £20 !
  6. Having travelled extensively in my time (Dubai Phil is an amateur:)) and frequented pubs in all corners of the globe, I can honestly never remember seeing any Saints related items ! I know that this doesn't add much to the thread, but it kind of means that those which are found are like gold dust and should be celebrated !!
  7. Probably a stray Skate tried to set it alight
  8. I thought it was a special 'fill the fatpipes' day ??
  9. Danny Fox is a good footballer with a nice touch, good control and excellent delivery ! What he lacks is pace and defensive positioning ! To be played in front of a more traditional left back makes a lot of sense to me and I have discussed it many times with fellow Saints supporters ! I really don't understand those who write him off as useless, sure he has limitations but he still has a role to play and you never know it could turn out to be a masterstroke !!
  10. Just heard the tail end of his spiel ! Full of sh#t, no substance, what a **** !!
  11. Having spent a lot of time in China, I would recommend Mandarin ! The spoken word is actually not as difficult as you may imagine but the writing is almost impossible to decipher, which makes learning more challenging ! I only speak it a little but it's great fun when you get going !
  12. Surely you should have turned into a Skate then ??
  13. Wtfiln
  14. I note that some of you will be in the George on the Strand on Friday ! I am ending a pubcrawl of the City about 15.30 in that area, will you still be there then ? Warning in advance - I may be a bit p!ssed but I'm always well behaved (just tend to slur a bit!).
  15. I feel sure that Chinney's lawyers will try to prove (from the off) that it is a property developer that is buying Fatpipes and the land, therefore it is not a PST bid at all ! (This must be the reason for non disclosure of the confirmed pledges so far!). As Trev has been playing up the 'Trust or Bust' card, surely competent lawyers should be able to attack that argument with ease ?? Once they have achieved this, the whole situation changes and the threat of liquidating the plucky bestest is no longer a heart-wrenching decision for the judge, it simply becomes a contest between one reptile and another !
  16. I did mine online and it said that my 'season card' would be updated to include this match ! Cost me £1.50 on top of the £25 ticket !
  17. Sadly there are still many people who base their judgement on solely on the last result ! It is almost impossible to rise from div 3 to the top league in consecutive seasons and continue to win consistently ! We all had opinions on which players were able to make the step up and which were not, but in reality you only know for sure when this is tried and tested ! Likewise tactics and substitutions, everyone is an expert and views differ enormously ! Sensible thinkers will take a longer term view and be confident that stability will bring rewards, those who call for the guillotine after a run of say 4 or 5 defeats, are nothing more than kneejerk reactionaries who should reflect more on the genuine efforts of those who strive for success on behalf of us all !!
  18. Classic ! I loved the bit where he asked about why they changed interviewers
  19. The problem here is that 'belief' is all in the mind and it is often only a short step from brainwashing/indoctrination ! The interpretation of bibles and scriptures can vary wildly and the 'qualified' people you refer to are able to emphasise their own bias should they choose ! Personally I don't want any of my family to be subjected to this ! Schools are for education and rightly is compulsory ! Religion is for churches and should be through choice !
  20. I was around in those days and fairly young children were considered to be safe on the streets, therefore were given much more freedom than today and the opportunity for exploitation was tangible ! Another big downside was that 'authority' was the exclusive preserve of adults and if there was any abuse, the child would be extremely reluctant (ashamed even) to report it ! With the benefit of hindsight, the main offenders were often figures of power (ie. the Catholic church, scout leaders, celebrities, politicians, local dignitaries etc..) and in the previous generation the aristocracy took advantage of their minions and got away with it ! Yes times have changed, but respect for your fellow man (and particularly child !) should have no boundaries ! There is a lot of political correctness around these days which makes some people feel all-knowing and superior but paedophilia and racism still exist so who knows whether morality is better or worse than in former times ??
  21. It's a bloody long way to Uruguay and back in a couple of days ! Hope he's not knackered come Saturday, even if he makes it back at all ??
  22. I was extremely saddened by the demise of the pound note, just not the same wiping your arse with a coin, would be a bit dodgy if it got lodged up there
  23. Only 32 ? Bl**dy plastic !
  24. Interesting that both Reading and WHU are so much higher than us having spent the same time in the same leagues over the period analyzed ! I'm delighted to see these figures as I totally object to any of my ticket money going to these leeches ! The players should pay a fee to their agents as they work on their behalf ! I see no reason why the clubs should pay them at all !!
