Half Time Still sitting in 3rd place with a game in hand

Based on average statistics, how many more games can we afford to lose this season?

Still 0-0 in all the games for teams around us

This. They are very professional footballers. How dare people suggest they are human too. Whatever next.... ;-)

Guly shot well saved (I'm back in real time now)

1 - 0 Tranmere. Bugger. Davis and Fonte mix up

Remind me....how many games have we won without Lallana this season....?

Still in 3rd place with a game in hand

Sssshhhhh....... ;-)

I had it on pause when the game started, so I'm now 20 minutes behind you guys. Don't post anything that spoils the rest of the game for me please

This has got 0-0 written all over it

You can pot the pink immediately after the brown if you were potting the brown instead of a red in a free ball situation where you can't see any of the reds.

Things do look bigger in a TARDIS...

That certainly piles on the agony

You're right. It was AltaVista

Sorry, just re-read what you said and have another question....if the amount that comes out my PAYE 'deductions' at source is "untaxed" money then why would I be claiming tax back (through my Tax Return) if I haven't paid any tax on it in the first place? In other words, HMRC can't give me back tax that I never paid, can they??

Cheers - Some of my salary is taxed at 40% - does that make a difference to the final figure I put in the box? thanks again

Hi, Any tax experts out there?! I'm filling in my 2009/10 form online as we speak and am stuck at the following entry: Payments to registered pension schemes where basic rate tax relief will be claimed by your pension provider (called 'relief at source'). Enter the payments and basic rate tax:£ I do pay into a private pension scheme but directly via my PAYE rather than out of my bank account. So, on my payslip I have 3 entries in the 'deductions' column, namely: Tax, N.I. and Employee Pension Contributions. (note: my employer also contributes to my pension separately from the company bank account, so this is definately "employee contribution" I'm talking about here) So, (I think) my question is: are my monthy deductions before or after tax and does this affect what I put in the above box? Yes, I know I could give the tax office a call but having spent 3 days dealing with insurers etc over a collapsed drain I don't think I could stomach spending anymore time on the phone this week! And I can't find my pension statement at the moment, which I guess would help. Cheers for any help :-)

They've corrected the typo now. Bugger (so to speak)

Agree. There will indeed be lots of 'part-time' supporters in the same boat....

Actually, the biggest "winners" of the last 24 hours in terms of 'news burying' are Alan Johnson, Ed Balls and Ed Milliband. Without the Iraq Inquiry and the Coulson resignation that would be the lead story today.

"Saints’ nine-goal joint top scorer and ky midfielder sat out last week’s goalless draw with Notts County with a knee injury that was initially thought to be serious." Now we know how he glides past opponents so easily....

Remind me, how many Mandleson resignations did Labour survive....? ;-)

I take it back, I'm now back to the one person telling me one thing and another person telling my insurers another. Sigh.
