  1. He'll be playing for us next season.
  2. That may be true, but if he gets rid of AP because of it then I have serious doubts as to whether he is the correct man to be chairman of a football club.
  3. We don't know, of course, but we could all see how much he enjoyed last Sunday. There's quite a bit of money to be made from this club in the lower leagues and I wouldn't be surprised to see a profit over this season. Maybe the money from the cup runs will help loosen the funding in the summer? I agree that the JPT has probably not helped our league form.
  4. I don't think that you can consider this a below-par season. If next season were to be the same then I would agree with you, but the current team bears no relation to the team that started in August.
  5. And we shall deserve to be there. Have we learnt nothing from all the chopping and changing over the last decade or so?
  6. How many points were we above the relegation zone then and how many are we above now? All that matters is that we were out of the playoffs then and we shall almost certainly finish out of them, but if we were to play next season with the same form that we have shown since December then I am fairly certain that we shall get promoted.
  7. We've got more points than we had in December. :confused:
  8. This method is a complete falacy. At the start of season all teams (except those with deductions) are at the top of the table, and at the bottom. A team that ends mid-table on 50 points might finish 40 points off the top spot. Have they gained 50 points or lost 40?
  9. Which school trip was that?
  10. Rule one. (Don't get caught)
  11. When Murty got injured.
  12. Is this Votematch site run by the BNP by any chance?
  13. Hmmm. BNP by a long way with the conseravtives close behind, but it wouldn't let me select only two parties to be compared against.
  14. A draw is a result. Next season winning at home and drawing away will be sufficient. (For most people but not for you, I suspect )
  15. I haven't done it for a long time now, but if it's any consolation I always used to find that it didn't last past lunchtime and a good solid meal.
  16. They have haunted us all season. In any normal season last night's result would have been a fairly good one, and our current form would probably be enough for automatic promotion. We are steadily improving and preparing for next season and as far as I can see the only way is up!
  17. By that I assume you mean Gordon Brown?
  18. Thanks for the suggestion. I've installed Taptalk and this is the first post!
  19. Everything looks like diced carrots - fact.
  20. Drink plenty of water before you go to bed. Even better, drink water during the evening and if you can, substitute water for one of the drinks every now and then. The french will often alternate a glass of wine with a glass of water, especially the women.
  21. I got caught just over 10 years ago but I didn't know that you had to notify the insurance company. On my renewal notices now it lists all my previous claims, windscreens, etc. and it still lists the SP30 so I'm pretty sure that they are notified by the DVLC. Whatever happened to the rehabilitation of offenders act? My licence had the old postcode so after three years I sent it off for a free address change thinking that the 3 points would be expunged. I now know that you have to wait 4 years, and pay another fee (fine) to have them removed.
  22. That's about the truth of it, Daren. I don't know why we all can't leave it at that.
  23. He was composed and dignified, please and satisfied. Like a father seeing his children win on school sports day.
  24. They normally allow 10% plus 2 mph over the limit before they do you so anything over 68mph is likely to result in a missive. There is a scale of typical penalties depending on the amount over the limit, but I'm afraid I can't remember what it was, and it might have changed. Money-grabbing bastards! Unless you were driving irresponsibly, in which case you deserve all you get.
  25. Of course a ship was originally a three-masted vessel with bowsprit and was square-rigged on all three masts, provided that the luff of the mizzen (or spanker) was not hooped onto a smaller mast just abaft the mizzen, in which case it was a snow. Or so I believe. :smt101
