  1. Do you really need an answer to that one....?
  2. One word: Sublime Can someone please sneak this footage into the Saints dressing room and play it in front of the team before the start of each remaining game this season? Over to you VNMAN.... ;-) Thanks
  3. Yes, I know. It was one of my poor attempts at irony (which isn't easy on t'internet) :-)
  4. All of them....? ;-)
  5. http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?29134-MK-Dons-build-up&p=1004196#post1004196
  6. I can't see the connection.....that's a link to a horror movie...... ;-)
  7. Nice one. That makes me feel much better. I love your Dad, and so does my wife. Buy him a beer for me :-) p.s. now watch us go and lose the next two games..... ;-)
  8. I said this a while back (and was probably laughed at for my troubles) but I actually think that we'll find the Championship (if we get promoted) an easier league than this one with the same core set of players. I've heard plenty of anecdotal evidence from fans of other teams we have played, along with other pundits, that we are the 'best' team in the league (as arrogant as it sounds to replay the words of others) but that our style is "too pretty" for League One (and, yes, that also sounds arrogant). It's a circular argument but I genuinely believe that we'll get results more comfortably next season than this.....IF we're promoted....
  9. An 'independent' view from my Daggers supporting friend who saw them play Brighton on Tuesday.... "I have to say I didn't think they (Brighton) were a patch on the Saints.... neither were Huddersfield. Sadly they don't award style points though..." Daggers were all over them looking at these highlights: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_div_2/9441347.stm So, the difference between us and Brighton? They're better at grinding out narrow victories out of below-par performances than we are....?
  10. Ok. Bear in mind politicians of all persuasions are prone to change their minds (which isn't always a bad character trait. Some call it 'listening'; others call it 'u-turning')
  11. No.
  12. I'm not going to take a bet on something I agree with you on. :-) They haven't changed their minds (in principle), I just don't believe they'll have the time to do anything about it over and above other priorities. Just rejoice in the knowledge that we agree on something ;-) ( I'll make a £20 donation to H4H tomorrow anyway when I see the chaps collecting outside London Bridge station as it's a good cause)
  13. Taking the public sector back to 2008/09 levels is hardly "decimation". It's a rebalancing exercise, one that Labour subscribed to (albeit £6bn less than the nasty wasty Tories, which is a drop in the ocean difference in the general scheme of things.) Btw, has Balls decided whether he is for or against retaining the 50% tax rate yet or is he still flip-flopping? ;-)
  14. On their list of Labour mess to sort out I would venture 'school choices' is fairly low down.... ;-)
  15. It was Labour who introduced the pseudo 'free market' choices for schools as a way of preventing the true free market operating (i.e. Parents choosing where they live ergo which school they went to) The real free market was far too unfair though as it meant that clever(er) / rich(er) parents could determine what schools their kids went to...and real choice would never do in an equal society... ;-)
  16. But that gives us a range of 1 pence to £62,999,999,999....so, no, we don't "know" anything about what they are asking for.... Maybe the better question to ask the protesters would be: "How much of the £120m DAILY interest payment on the debt are you happy for this country to keep paying and for how long?". Once we have the answer to that one I can then work backwards from those figures to arrive at the amount of cuts they would need to endorse to achieve their desired reduction in the debt interest payments. This pretty picture may help focus the mind:
  17. That's because they didn't have a Tory (Lord Coe) holding them to account.... ;-)
  18. They haven't spent £6m yet....they've just got planning permission to do so..... Make of that what you will....
  19. Sadly true. Welcome to 'Great' Britain 2011
  20. Genuine long term injury or Adkins smoke-and-mirrors?
