Meanwhile, as they sink slowly, an opportunity arises for us. Looks like we really could find out who is better. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/mediatechnologyandtelecoms/media/9198315/Lionel-Messi-fans-could-miss-key-matches-amid-Spanish-football-TV-rights-row.html So the financial crisis in Spain is now putting pressure on reducing the cost of TV rights by 50% placing immense strain on the finances of clubs. Time to increase our Equity funding again then Nicola - Adam on the left Leo on the right - go fetch The above post is brought to you with a sense of irony, knowing full well it is what the few would be saying right now IF their Freedom of The City Leadership had done GCSE Accounts while at Skool

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.. OK so I watched GoT on catch up TV last night. Didn't realise they'd pulled the plug half way through on the normal live broadcast http://www.7daysindubai.com/8216-Stop-playing-Game-let-watch-TV-8217/story-15782295-detail/story.html Well, I have to say I am surprised it stayed on air so long down here. Also gutted that it has gone. Never mind, just have to download it http://www.thenational.ae/news/uae-news/game-of-thrones-taken-off-air-due-to-nudity Ah ha so it was only ONE of the Cable providers who took it off line.... However I think this is going to be a story that will run and run

ORLY? You would put the 06 Bale ahead of the current Fox? Hmmm. He WAS good but he wasn't consistent and he wasn't as good a defender. Kenwyne? Hmm many on here were ready to pay his taxi fare Surman at RM is of course a no brainer, Baird v Butterfield probably Baird but against Richardson> Baird was a better blood & guts defender but not so useful going forwards. Think Surman & Richardson would have worked really well

We will get crucified if we play the "big boys" of the National Press like this when we get to the PL. But until then? Sibley is fast becoming a legend. Totally NOT surprised he got his revenge for Neil Allens Tweets demanding Sibley got sacked for questioning poopeys award as Community Club of the Year. Everyone has seen how WRONG that decision was by the statement by PKF today showing they haven't paid a Hotel Bill or Coach company in ages. Karma - you gotta love it, well done lad - we all know you post on here - would have done the same myself and felt BLOODY good about it. BUT next year? A tad more cautious with the proper big fish

NIORP Not in our recruitment policy There, I've been in IT Sales & Marketing for almost 20 years, always wanted to invent a totally useless buzz word

That could only have possibly happened if some Saints fans had in any way been involved in one of their takeovers. And of course we all know that is completely impossible and never been mentioned before in 60,500+ odd posts don't we.

Again in the "Incredulous" stakes is how even now one month after being appointed TB has no real idea of who they owe money to, I mean I know you idiots in the UK let moron Bankers earn a million plus a week but FFS how the hell did Lumpitt ever get allowed near a job if he failed to understand Rule 1 of Compliance - Accounting Procedures. Makes a little snippet I PM'd a while back to a few seem closer to the mark. I bet TB wakes up every morning and asks "Why the feck did I open my big mouth and take this on?"

Oh yes on Thailand. A DJ mate from here just moved back to a radio station outside Melbourne. He just spent 3 weeks backpacking NZ - reading his FB posts it's all abot trains rides and ferries and most of his posts were OMG. His recommendation PLAN PLAN AND PLAN - he did it from Lonely Planet, The Rough Guide, 1000 places to see before you Die & I think something about Great Railway Journeys and of course talking with other backpackers. Doing Thailand? PM me for BKK advice

You LUCKY bastard Hypo. One of our Village Cricket team lads many years ago went over for 6 months and came back a "Real Man". He headed for the Wine areas around harvest time and always found enough to keep him in a hostel for another month or two My ONLY advice, google as MUCH as you can from some of the tips here BEFORE you go. Also, get the RIGHT visa before you go (If only you were a hairdresser or a plasterer you could get in permanently!) Look at the maps and start somewhere cheap but with good public transport. Oh, and IF you are flying Etihad or Emirates to get there then stop over here for some beers on the way there or back (B&B only costs your Duty Free inbound allowance) Oh and Ditch your UK phone asap get onto a local deal In Twitter speak #jealous Love the place. If only it wasn't full of Aussies

Ah bless TCM was showing Escape to Victory tonight/ How great to see all those old faces, Pele, Ossie Ardilles, Sir Bobby (RIP), Mike Sumerbee, Paul Van Winst, hell - even our own Russell HOOF Osman... And also a big shout out to those other great stars of the movie. The Northam Stewards, there in their cute Grey Uniforms, Metal Safety hats and Rifles, straight from a Saturday afternoon without a change of uniforms.

Emilia hubba hubba woof woof - no not me that was FMDP's answer when I said Jeez that chick's HOT... (apparently she's become really hot property in the Acting biz as well - noticed her name is now the FIRST one on the list during the intro! So in answer - so far (SPOILER ALERT) no - she just looks distraught, dishevelled, Little Girl Lost marooned in a desert. so ACTUALLY even MORE woof woof than before Mind you just about every other chick in the series gets naked. Hell in Ep 2 there is even a YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME skanky arrgh yuk who gets doggied. But I think the Red Headed Witch who spoils the table of toy soldiers could become a fav. She ain't no Emilia but she has really nice tits (Oh and yes there are naked men in it for the girls) Oh and one really funny "gag" about the chick who looks like Sean Bean's daughter meeting Rob Stark's mate at Castle Rock.... You'll just say to yourself "Why does that never happen to me?" and the answer comes pdq (hint - we don't live in poopey) Meanwhile House last season Episode 3 - "13" returns for a show... With her new Lesbian Lover. The snogging scene at the end was enough to get me rushed to Princeton Memorial with an incurable disease of lust. Mind you House does get a new assistant who has the potential (to quote FMDP) - "to be almost as hot as 13" - we wait for both next episodes with baited breath... (Oh and don't worry, it's OK me & FMDP have a great relationship - eg Emilia - "honey - you get the chance to sh@g her one time I would be SO proud of you as long as you came back after and told me all about it...." - Although my concession -Hon, I have no problems if you want to sh@g Justin Bieber didn't quite seem to have been the right answer...) OK as a deal as we are 2 days ahead I'll promiseto do my best to remember post any updates on Emilia getting her kit off for y'all (Or more Willies for BTF & the girls)

There seems to be some kind of deal on the table from SFA - ban from Europe etc etc or relegation to Div 3

Again from Matt Slater It is just Incredulous. And yet even Birch admitted in the statement "getting a balance between "my word - gambling" to stay up and cutting costs Even HE couldn't resist it - pay the players sod the poor Hotels/Taxi Drivers/Coach Companies. TBH I am now at the point where Liquidation is no longer good enough for them SURELY there must be SOME laws against this. People deserve JAIL time

Well, shock horror. We're getting Game of Thrones S2 here on Monday nights TWO WHOLE DAYS BEFORE YOU LOT! Strewth can't remember TV here EVER being ahead of back home! Ep 1 started well, introduced new characters (although not yet sure why) Ep 2? Ah bless back to (What for down here counts as) Hard Core porn Wow I can't even comment 'cos I'd spoil it

Not that I understand these things, but according to Twitter it is Happy Hump Day today. Now does that refer to what is happening to PCFC, your legendary poster, what I better do to FDMP this evening or is it just some Eurovision thingy?

Knew it was someone regular from here but after going back 60 pages in a valiant attempt to re-quote I gave up & went direct to You Tube:)

TSW has a man in Chiang Rai... Mission time!

Reading that a bit more carefully, it appears that the Directors didn't actually KNOW their financial situation. They still haven't provided a Statement of Affairs from back in February The other stand out was creating updated Cash Flow and Financial Forecasts to aid Decision making... I mean WTF? How can you run a business if you don't have this stuff on your desk EVERY minute of EVERY day. They've been a laughing stock for so long now, but this is beyond Amateurish. It is simply astonishing

Ooh. I know Edward Simmons.... Used to make a lot of beer money going to their..... LIQUIDATION SALES

Well. I for one am sitting back in my chair and relaxing and looking forward to hearing the troll and pfc123 explain all this to us. You remember the troll. He's the one who said you didn't need to have a budget, and how he insisted that budgets were irrelevant and that they could go up and that he knew all about them and we didn't. We must have a forensic accountant on here somewhere who can look at all of that little mess and try and detrmine at which point this season they actually BECAME insolvent (again) Mr Lampitt if he has any sense should be enjoying a nice lengthy holiday in Brazil - or acting as their consultant on Building Sustainable Infrastructure for teh next World Cup & Olympics Oh and the few wanted Vlad BACK???!!!

I had some very cross wind problems last night. Think it was my Chicken Tikka Masala at the Golf Club. Think there will also be a lot sneaking out of a**holes in poopey right about now

Holy Krap Don't think we EVER got close to that guess.

http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10280~2730871,00.html 2000 more tickets

hahaha! Actually that was cash set aside for FMDP's outfit for Daughter's wedding. Luckily () found a load of pics of a Nina Ricci original dress online and have got a local sweat shop to make up a knock off for 50 quid inc material (BUT DON'T TELL HER FFS!). One of my wayward Tee Shots at Emirates slaughtered an Indian Starling (Beautiful Plumage all Royal Blue) to match the dress, so have got another mate to glue them onto one of those headband thingys from Claire's. Sorted Then OF COURSE, I will have to find some business meeting to attend while over. Luckily, with Granty's PTS bid for the skates looks like a pint in the Concourse at Coventry should allow that to be deductible and so voila. Don't need money. Just Creativity

What the HELL does this guy Burrows smoke? Jack Nicholson - Mars Attacks Neville Chamberlain - Munich Why don't we all get along and live together in peace and harmony.... THAT has to be one of the funniest lines ON this forum. Still, who cares? Won't be no bubble needed for another 50 years.
