  1. More likely you stay on the pitch longer if you only tell what you think of him in Spanish....
  2. Up to 15th. Makes the comments of a month ago look a bit silly.
  3. Not Guly?
  4. Pleased with that. Were rather Wigan were dragged down than QPR cast totally adrift
  5. This. They have people at every match updating text. Its takes a couple of minutes to make it on to the website. Its wonder you made it unharmed through the days when you had to wait for the guy to find a phone box to get updates.
  6. Really?
  7. My 8 yr old daughter adores one of these. I had assumed it was a harmless toy. However I'd never realised she was being corrupted by foul double guy messages subliminally contaminating her. I'm going to burn it when she gets home.
  8. So if you ignore road tax, tyres, insurance, depreciation and servicing and only count the marginal 2mpg, its cheaper to run?
  9. I'll post up some of the good ones:) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3gVzE2YxWw
  10. Those corporate PR 'look at how green we are' turbines really **** me off as they discredit wind energy omn the publics eye. Almost invariably they are located in an area of low wind but high public visibility.
  11. The hometowns of Gazzaniga and Ramirez are only about 100 miles away from each other. zzzz
  12. Presumably you heard about it exactly because of the media attention. The total tax take from corporation tax has declined by almost two thirds in 20 years by onshoring losses, artifical charges and offshoring profits. The poor dont have the money to pay to make up the difference and the rich already have the dodges - hence why the middle class PAYE burden is going up. .
  13. That argument is always trotted out, but its facile. Oddly enough Costa, Cafe Nero and Pret A Manger also provide employment and contribute income tax, national insurance, business rates, but they pay corporation tax too. Yes of course its legal, simply because its impossible to prove that tax evasion is the motive behind loading on artificial costs such as licensing so that all your subsidiaries make accounting loses and the licensing fees (aka the real profits) are channelled through Ireland
  14. Ow. Gaston's must have been worse than that if he had to go to hospital to have it drained
  15. At least two prolific posters here applied for his job and didnt even get an interview. Its just the usual snipey rubbish.

    Bale

    I thought this was another thread about Ramirez's intentions
  17. Ta. Only three more hours of this thread to go then.
  18. So what time is the pre match press conference? NA is supposed to be updating on Ramirez then.
  19. So which is it? Taxes too high or benefits too low? Surely you arent arguing for the magic budget - you know the one where everyone gets everything and no-one pays? (sometimes also known as Greece).
  20. There are two basic options for a benefits system. Means tested is fairer but hugely expensive and complicated to administer; last time I saw figures (admittedly years ago) it cost almost 80p in admin for every £1 paid out. Or you have universal benefits which yes means some people get them who dont need to but they are cheap to run and you can tax people on their overall income and recoup some of the cash.
  21. My Dad used to take me in the early 70s as part of works group of dockers and lads. We always used to stand behind the goal in the Milton underneath the chocolate boxes.
  22. Try paying 20% of your earnings to your ex despite the fact that you have the kids more than 50% of the time, buy their clothes, pay for their clubs and she still gets child benefit and tax credits for them.
  23. Some sort of hunting / shooting weekend in France or Scotland. Like this? http://www.chasseloire.com/index.html
