How about Stevie Wonder's uptight? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14hskyBXkPo

I don't really see this as being big news, and I doubt anything will come of it. The Conservative Party understands better than any other party that it's reason for existing is to be in power and the 1922 committee or the party as a whole will do nothing to jeopardise that. The only way Cameron will be under threat is if he is seen as a liability - he's not that just yet. Of course if anyone finds any dodgy dealings by Coulson whilst he was in the tories pay then that might change......

I like that - deliberately vague over the top exclamation that could be interpreted either way. That way you can judge what the collective "saintsweb" opinion is and then go against it.......clever.

Don't feed the troll! It's hard sometimes though.....

Interesting point really. It's my opinion that when anyone starts talking about left and right then they're avoiding issues. They're labels for both sides. In mainstream politics (no Dune that doesn't include UKIP) there really isn't much left or right but sometimes it suits them to use those labels.

I think you're probably right - both of these players are realistic targets but that doesn't necessarily mean there's anything in it either. Mind you I was sceptical about our chances of signing Jack Cork so I'll tempt fate again by saying that I don't think we have a chance on either of them.

I wonder if the Mills deal will be tied up with us getting Treacy and not Mellor?

Don't really know much about him but he does look a decent player and seems to tick the right boxes. Could be a good shout.

I have to laugh at virtually everyone commenting or being ironic in the face of non existant negative comments.

Agreed. Both of them are tedious.

Why don't you post more like this?

Just out of interest what would be in the top ten crimes - and make them generic rather than specific examples. Never really thought I'd end up defending NOTW readers but many of them bought the paper for something other than information gained illegally. Some bought it for sports coverage, others for celebrity gossip and others because they agreed with the general stance of the paper. None of them thought that by handing over their money that they were somehow agreeing with the illegal activities we've seen, and that's what you seem to be implying. Of course the other thing is how far do you extend public culpability? I want to watch a range of sports mostly available on SKY - does taking out a subscription mean I condone the activity of hacking the phone of a missing girl? Of course it doesn't.

I agree. Whilst obviously the ideas of signing Owen, Parker etc are laughable so are the constant references to them as well. I suppose it's meant to be funny but it's not, it's just boring. It's as tedious as the "Has Skacel signed?" joke.

You may have a point, pretty sure I saw that Dr Who fella - David someone or other yesterday queuing up for a ticket. I bet that sodding Tardis didn't pay for parking either.

To be honest looking at the state of the market there doesn't seem to be that many domestic league strikers that are realistic signings that would improve us much, and the ones that are out there seem to have very high price tags. I'd be happy with an overseas signing - they're cheaper and there must be some half decent talent that would see us as a good career move. There's also the fact that an overseas signing that no one really knows much about tends to generate a bit of excitement - albeit probably with unrealistic expectations. Guly, Waigo, Delgado, Pahars etc were signings I couldn't wait to see play - although obviously not all of them worked out.

Then ignore it. Personally the kit thread is boring beyond belief for me - have I posted on it? No. Have I called for it to be closed? No.

Why?

Infract me up but christ you really are a boring, one trick pony c u n t.

And personally I was surprised that people took offence to it in the first place and it was closed. Clearly it was a popular and interesting thread and it was always possible to ignore. If anyone is being over the top then it's you - puppy being stabbed? Bit of a drama queen post really.

It would be a nice idea.......but I doubt it'll happen. Shame. Anyone got any links to forums with some football rumours? Obviously I already check football rumours so don't suggest that but any others will be welcome. On a side note can we get rid of the "what films are you watching", "what are you listening to", "what are you reading" threads? Personally I like them but obviously there are some people with short attention spans and they're the people we should be thinking of.

Isn't there also a Fit and Proper persons test as well? You'd hope it should be unlikely he'd pass that.

I think you're probably right, although there is speculation that Murdoch might jettison all of his papers. Newspapers in their current form are dying and I'm not sure how successful the internet subscription NI introduced has been. I don't think it's likely that he will sell off the rest of his papers but it's nice to speculate that he might.

To be honest it's all a matter of opinion, isn't it? I didn't find the rumours thread annoying in the slightest. If you didn't like it then you could ignore it, or you could start individual rumour threads as well - I don't see any reason why they couldn't co-exist and in many cases they did. Still it's a small thing to get worked up about, it's just a shame it's gone. Oh and the match day thread suggestion was a joke - fairly sure most people would have got that but I can always edit it if you found it annoying.

I liked the rumours thread, trawling through it was no more ardous than looking at individual threads. I imagine the matchday threads will now be split up into individual minute threads?
