  1. You did that already with the converted Jaguar and the whole Caravan thing.
  2. It can be really good fun Turkish. You should try it some time. TSW Forum Match 1 + 2 Phil's Stag Next Sunday's Lunch Barasti every Saturday Centre Circle at SMS after the two Promotion winning games I know you'd find it odd but it is possible to communicate with TSW members in ways that don't need a keyboard
  3. Great last sentence, and in reality although I joke about it, I felt back last summer in the Euros that SRL DID have something "Sheringhamesque" that would be suited to England. I also felt strongly that IF he got the chance he would not let anyone down. Seems from some of the Press today that Woy has now seen that as well, Intelligence Attitude and an ability to match his brain, he ain't no Messi, but, and here is the rub, BUT he COULD be the hero. He COULD actually live the dream and get us to Brazil. It's as likely to happen as is Alp's worry that he'll be blamed for failure, I just have faith in the man. He actually has the brain to know what is needed. Rickie Lambert playing in the World Cup and in Brazil... Only thing now that is stopping him is himself Dear Lord send the men with the white coats I need more Vino before Kick Off that's f'sure
  4. Which is why no matter what may suit Domestic Politics, the ONLY way forward is for "the World" to work together. Sure the Chemical Weapons attack was bad & needs a response, but it has to be done with the Russians & Chinese in tow as once Bashar has gone you have about 10 million people in and around Damascus who will face "uncertainty" Which is another way of saying the Death Toll from no Bashar could be much much worse than it has been so far once the Ethnic Cleansing starts
  5. FFS Pap, can't we let him get established in the Football Team before we worry about him for the Ashes?
  6. Can you get hold of the sequel? How to avoid Big Airplanes? Looking for a Christmas Present for Eric
  7. I would agree with you word for word Nick.... Except there is still ONE piece of the jigsaw that must be put in place. Jail for fat cat incompetent rip off morons who masquarade as being "Good Management". How the hell the morons that created the Banking Disaster/CDS/Derivatives and all that are STILL not in Jail for fraud, have kept their obscene pay-offs while forcing everyone else on the planet through an Economic misery hacks me off. So many examples of Moronic Management driving their companies into the ground than of real harm caused by the Dinosaurs..
  8. WTF? Some things are WAY more important than golf
  9. Made even worse in Chez DP by the fact that Mrs D_P is the one who came up with it, she is Polish & I will be.... In Poland around that time....
  10. Lucky you lot then. When will the dinosaurs wake up to the fact that they would be much better off campaigning on things related to Work & Business that people could get behind? Like Corporation Tax bills for Multi-Nationals and the greed of the Exec class & the like. Get all their members to Boycott Starbucks, Google & Amazon, Barclays & Lloyds... Oh sorry stupid me, that would inconvenience themselves & their members of course. Ho hum back to the 70's
  11. I've been waking up in a cold sweat at night for a couple of weeks with the nightmare that it's 0-0 into Injury time & England get a Penalty and it's Rickie vs The Holy Goalie....
  12. This is now getting publicity & The PL are not happy. Just make sure you stick to monthly deals is my advice. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/article-2413094/Richard-Keys-Andy-Gray-slip-British-TV-Al-Jazeera--Charles-Sale.html
  13. Have to say in defence of Alps, I only noticed this morning that we were playing Gerrard AND Lampard together AGAIN. So as they 1) Tend to never work as a pairing and 2) are the darlings of the Media he does have a point. But then it is Moldova and we actually scored 5 against them away from home. The U-21's had all the stupid bad luck/poor finishing karma last night. Meh, IF England fail to win against that shower I think Rickie getting stick would be the last of your worries!
  14. And played as the DM... Interesting choice of position to play him
  15. Relegated to the office to watch online as Mrs DP is watching some movie on Fox
  16. Interesting scenario develops.... Rickie is the hero again tomorrow. And the world turns to our West Ham Build Up thread to see (many) Saints fans NOT selecting him in their teams for next Saturday. Funny old game:) Made up for Rickie, he looks really calm and at home in that interview. England Expects..............
  17. Nope. Sorry. Still haven't been able to find a 4 year old to answer this for me
  18. Well, Matty has a point, he thinks he has paid for something and discovered he is being ripped off screwed around by a BIG CORPORATION. As Trousers says do your research first. As we always say, pay peanuts get monkeys. Ah yes the British Obsession with getting the cheapest price Oh sod it can't think of many more cliches. So I'll just say. An annual process and plan to reduce the level of stock in ones fridge or freezer to allow for a De-frost is always a wise course of action. Which no, sorry NONE of that waffle can stop me
  19. Nice words from Greg Brilliant post from Monk via his Secretary. But and here is the rub. Until the England MANAGER picks ENGLISH Players who are getting games EVERY WEEK, what is the point? English players see money and join the big clubs get huge salaries but never play. How the hell can it benefit an England Team when you pick half the squad who aren't playing football? The FA could make an instant difference by telling Woy to pick players who actually are getting PL game time. Sure for the next year or so it will harm England's chances, but after that, those who REALLY want to play for England will not settle for 100k a week to sit on the bench at Citeh etc. Two sides to the coin, and yes, Saints ARE trying to make a difference, but nobody will notice until Jrod/Al/LS/JC get called up Oh JC isn't eligible any more......
  20. While that looks good, I think we (on here) tend to under-rate the running work that JRod brings to our attack. Sure he is not a goal scorer (yet) but his running wears down the defenders, don't think this will work as well against WHU but may be better against slower teams like WBA & Sunderland have proved to be. I'd prefer to see something like that away from home at Liverpool wherw MS & Cork can press much higher up the pitch
  21. Can't wait. It took me 40 years to get over the fact that they never made a sequel to Plan 9 from Outer Space
  22. Certainly is Case proven M'Lud
  23. Against teams that are more likely to sit back against us I think MP is starting to consider going with only one DM In which case I can see an argument for going with -----------Boruc------------- Clyne---Fonte--Lovren---Shaw -------Wanyama------------ ---Gaston----Lallana-------- Lambert---------------JRod -----------Osvaldo---------- Which would be incredibly tough on JWP & Morgan, but think JWP needs a break as was at fault for the Norwich goal and was not at his best last week. Morgan COULD replace Gaston in that shape but not sure he is creative enough, would certainly help IF we adopt the pressing game again though But against WetSham think we need more height in the team hence finding a way to fit SRL into it and JRod chasing down the channels is something we definitely missed (as well as FB's) at Norwich. Anyways I'll be there 1st game of the season. Hope it's better than my 1st trip last year (Wigan)
  24. Have you tried to get Anastasia into your reasonably priced car yet Bearsy? Could you clamber over the gear stick or did you have to walk round the back?
