  1. I mostly listen to radio 2 although if I had a digital radio in the car then I'd probably alternate between that, xfm and radio 6. Haven't listened to radio 1 in years.
  2. I deliberately avoided the trailer until finishing the book, which I did yesterday. Having seen the trailer now I agree with you - the casting of Emma isn't what I expected. They've obviously done it for the American market though. Have to say the book was excellent - uses a device similar to the time traveller's wife and it works really well.
  3. Can I positively agree with this statement? I'm not sure......
  4. No, but he'd moan that he wasn't on the bus, or the bus wasn't a coach, or a plane or a space rocket.......only joking alps
  5. It's a bit of a girly book but "One day" by David Nicholls. About half way through and it's good so far, totally character driven (which I normally hate - I need a bit of plot) but it's well written and in places quite funny. I suspect if you didn't go to University in the late 80's / early 90's then it won't resonate so much and it also has a bit of celebrity culture critique which is becoming a bit of a tired cliche. That said it's quite decent and reminiscent of Nick Hornby and Tony Parsons but updated a bit.
  6. I don't really think this is the place for this but it might be a good idea to hold fire until we know some details. It's important to also remember that in Gary's (Sir Griff) case there was no blame attached to the bouncer - it was an accident.
  7. Agree with that. In fact didn't his directors cut of Alien actually come in with a shorter running time than the original as well? It was either that or Aliens anyway.
  8. Bad news. Hope you get well soon Dan.
  9. You'll find this a lot on here. It isn't OK to question things in a reasonable manner because it's the club you're criticising and because I'm a bit sad, by definition me. That seems to be the attitude anyway. Take the transfer window multiple threads - it's blatantly obvious we were looking at trying to sign an expensive forward and to express disappointment that we didn't isn't heresy and is probably quite close to how NA feels.
  10. Ah, so this is what happens when we win loads and look good doing it. It's not much different to losing loads and looking poor really.... End of the day, getting wound up by a interweb forum is sad, most of us have probably done it, but it's ultimately pointless.
  11. I hate this assumption by fans that we think we "know" players and are willing to slag them off, criticise them based on an assumption that we are correct in our interpretation of their attitude. Recently we've seen it with Puncheon, Beckford and now Beattie. All we can judge them on is what they do on the pitch - it's up to the manager to make the call over whether they "fit" or not.
  12. On a totally unrelated note, Sebastian Shaw was John Peel's step father.
  13. 7th - 12th which I think is pretty good.
  14. I agree with this - it makes sense for both parties. All depends on his attitude and wage demands. His wage expectations shouldn't be too high - he must have made an absolute mint and the pay off from Rangers would mean an average wage wouldn't be too much of a disappointment to him.
  15. To be honest it's not the money - but it is shocking and it's not a new thing either. The fact we're paying for it does grate a bit but I get the impression charging us 20 quid or 50 quid wouldn't sort it out. It's been an issue for ages and seems to get worse not better.....
  16. For a subscription site this is pretty crap.
  17. Di Canio certainly is one mental fascist!
  18. Actually I disagree, the season he and Rasiak linked up they worked well together and personally I think if they'd stayed together the following season we would have either had a better chance of winning the play offs or even automatic. I don't think it was fan pressure that caused Fuller to leave though.
  19. Didn't NA mention him in an interview last week as having had a good game for the development squad? Would make sense to give him a chance. Think he would be benefit by going out on loan.
  20. I agree he probably won't join us and I'm not convinced we're even interested but it's not an unrealistic suggestion. I need to end this post on a disagreeable note that indicates I know more than you....how would I do that?.....wait I've got it....FFS!
  21. Hate them, don't have the same affinity with England as I do Saints. Saints can disappoint me endlessly and I still can't give them up but England.....well I just don't care in the same way.
  22. Not really having a pop at you but unless you know him then none of us can comment on his attitude - it might be good or it might not. I'd rather concentrate on whether he's a good player and will trust Adkins and Cortese to make their mind up about his attitude.
  23. It's not offensive and quite funny. I've, sadly, got some ginger family members and they think it's funny too although they like to point out that they aren't ginger but orange. That's fair enough - too many people masquerade under misleading labels such as red heads, ginger, auburn etc when they are actually just orange.
  24. I remember you slagging him and schneiderlin off a couple of years ago but changed your mind after seeing them play against bristol rovers 2 seasons ago. Can't be arsed to trawl through 21000 of your posts.
  25. You've come a long way from slagging him off........ but, yes, best player in the league for me and no amount of money would compensate his loss.
