  1. What is this 'massive bureaucracy' of which you speak? I have never experienced any. Please offer an example or a frinstance.
  2. We were relegated because we were crap. We certainly didn't need any helpful push from any other teams.
  3. I sit in the central Kingsland and I wasn't aware that we actually had a PA system.
  4. Why would he make a backwards step when he's actually waiting for the Arsenal job?
  5. Did I hear in MOTD that Newcastle spent £50m in January? Which three players will it be, Mané, Wanyama and Long?
  6. It's been known for decades that the number of NI numbers far as exceeds the number of people in the country, by a factor of two or something.
  7. To be honest I took it from the FIFA site but these days you never know how old the page is. I prefer the old-fashioned ruling, unless the player's lying in an offside position on the ground with a broken leg then flag him for offside.
  8. Speculation, it's what they do.
  9. Ah but some would argue (with some justification) that the IQ tests are weighted towards Western societes.
  10. Not in a hurry we couldn't. There are 'only' 27 parliaments that we would need to get approval from and not all of them export to the UK.
  11. CHDAJFU? (Only joking)
  12. Nada. Nothing for us but Palace get an EL place that is righfuilly ours. So the best strategy is to cripple half their team on Sunday whilst sticking a dozen goals past them.
  13. I think that Wikipedia article is itself one big fallacy.
  14. That's worse than mediocre.
  15. I expect they're used to it I remember overhearing a Leicester fan after they were relegated in 1969 saying 'I see it as a chance for restructuring and rebuilding' and sure enough, 47 years later look where they are now!
  16. And the conclusion: If you want to be influenced by economic modelling, the useful thing to take away is that the Treasury thinks leaving the EU would be bad for the economy, by an amount that would dwarf the savings from not having to contribute to the EU Budget.
  17. Fallacy?
  18. They can make those widgets providing they don't place them on the European Market. Whether the Guatemalans would buy them without a CE mark or whatever is a different question.
  19. His movement is covered in the Laws Of The Game: Preventing an opponent from playing or being able to play the ball. For example, by clearly obstructing the goalkeeper’s line of vision or movement. Making a gesture or movement which, in the opinion of the referee, deceives or distracts an opponent.
  20. If you knew what a Single Market was then why did you ask? Where on earth does this figure of six percent come from? The true figure is more like 45%.
  21. Such unbelievable arrogance.
  22. If only to stop a rival getting their services.
  23. They do have the power to do almost anything but I agree, deducting points is unlikely. Closed doors is a sanction which is often applied in European circles.
