The Kraken

NC may have had the drive, unfortunately for his panderers he didn't have the resources yet carried on as if he did. KL is the resource, a shame that some of our dinlos put her lower in the food chain than an egocentric who got away with spending money he didn't have for a bit too long.

It's "you're". Dickhead.

Oh dear, you've made the dickhead error of telling someone their opinion is wrong. Well done you.

I was expecting "I'd go on strike".

Indeed. Thankfully we'll only be allowed to talk about constant positives from here on in, in new threads. That's the way a public forum should be. No negative stuff allowed. And definitely don't do it more than once.

Rooney's challenge on the defender before his first goal could easily have been given as a foul IMO, it was a challenge from the rear into the back. Not that I'm bothered, Fat Sam is a whining tw*t anyway. And the keeper should have saved it in any case, he looked like he'd been playing that game on the beach where you lift a mop into the air, spin round it 20 times then run back.

Ah, but are they tropical fish? Or even from a marine tank? Specifics are needed here. If it's just a cold tank goldfish then no tears are needed, I'd say. I'll admit feeling my bottom lip quiver a bit a few years back when I found my little crab "Clyde" had made a run from my tropical tank and headed for the big outdoors (or at least what he could see of it outside the patio doors). Sadly the poor bugger only made it as far the radiator before curling up in a ball and likely thinking "I've made a big mistake".

Well my other "theory" was that it was a Payne Stewart type incident. As you can probably tell, this really isn't my field of expertise in any way whatsoever!

Nah, its horrible losing a pet when you've had them for so long. Dogs especially IMO. Our old family dog died nearly 20 years ago now, I'd grown up with him and I cried like a baby when we had to put him down, despite being in my early 20s! Yet I still think about him absolutely loads. Whenever I visit my parents house there's still a part of me thinking/longing to see his face pressed against the window. Dogs

Mine is shot down. Don't know why, just an irrational thought I had close to when it happened that doesn't seem to have gone away. Potentially China involved somewhere in it all. Don't ask me to justify it though, I'm fully aware it's just a hatstand personal theory based on nothing but supposition.

Evidence if ever there was that we need a bigger stadium, right now.

Must have been a big coin to cause ligament damage....

A selection of threads from the Portsmouth message boards. "Sack the useless c*nt or conference here we come". The board need to grow a pair of ****** now - BARKER OUT". "No need to shut the door behind you barker you useless *****." "Barker out Awford in". "Barker do the honourable thing - resign you useless XXXX". "**** off Barker". "Barker out". "We won't score another home goal this season". :lol: And I thought it was only supposed to be us Scummahs that got on the team and the manager's backs? A quote from POL to finish with: "A large section of the South Stand were singing "sacked in the morning" today. Loudest I've heard that stand all season." Guess not.

Morecambe, you pr*cks.

Exeter 2 up now. Go on you Grecians.

Ha ha ha, Ben Chorley sent off. Apparently he plays for Portsmouth.

Nah, I give Solent the swerve. Tell you what Sue; I'm not sure if you play football or not (you probably don't, I reckon), but if you did you could probably get into that Pompey team.

As if by magic.......Northampton score!! Cobblers!

Christ, you really don't get the concept of sarcasm, do you? I'll make it easier next time for you and use smilies.

Mickey Evans was 26 when he signed for Saints. He was an unqualified success so perhaps it's a good strategy. Winner of the 1997 "Best sideburns in football" award, too. Edit: I take it back, he was only 24. I'm so upset with myself.

Exactly. Gibbs and Oxo look very much alike. Quite how a serious accusation of racism can come out of this is bizarre.

Is it racism when two white fellas get mistaken and the wrong one gets sent off? Because, you know, that's happened quite a few times before. Or is this case different, and Andre Marriner is a massive racist?

Then you, sir, are my new hero. I also enjoyed the analogy "it was like navigating one's way up a badger's arse" when describing the recovery and eventual landing.

I only had the home version; the blue one reminds me of a trip to Villa Park and, after we kicked them all over the park, Micky Adams popped up with a late equaliser for a 1-1 that the locals weren't very happy about at all. The walk back to the car after the game was interesting...

The yellow one was worse in that it was worn with white shorts and yellow socks. That famous yellow-white-yellow classic colour combination.
