  1. Or hang around outside it after school, after all Kelvis lives opposite on Winchester Road? (Only joking, PP, we all love you really )
  2. So does that Pellè fellow.
  3. VVD nearly scores.
  4. Indeed they were. It wasn't just the unions tat caused the downfall of British car manufacturers, the electrics were rubbish too. Joe Lucas alone Was responsible for a lot of the problems. It appears that I am not alone in this view: http://jalopnik.com/399791/joe-lucas-prince-of-darkness-british-electrical-system-jokes
  5. All very true.
  6. It was also used for the beach scenes in El Cid with Charlton Heston.
  7. 5th largest at the moment but we are in the EU at the moment. Anyone who thinks it's easy to export to countries outside the EU ought to give it a try first.
  8. Last time I drove (when David Hirst played we parked at Everton's ground and walked across Stanley Park.
  9. Edit: There is a European Court of Justice and a European Court of Human Rights, which is different.
  10. Any interest paid on the debt (investment) would have to be at a commercial rate, that is you can't pay an inflated rate just in order to reduce your profits and hence your corporation tax. If you're concerned about legal ways of tax avoidance, as we should be, then you might do better to look at the way that the footballers are paid, often in the form of 'image rights' to a company registered offshore.
  11. I must admit I did raise an eyebrow.
  12. I agree, it is absolutely ridiculous and if I thought that leaving the EU would stop it then I would be leading the OUT campaign despite the enormous damage that it would do to our trade. This is one of many papers on migration to the UK, page 12 gives some numbers: http://researchbriefings.files.parliament.uk/documents/SN06077/SN06077.pdf More than 50% are non EU and nobody is doing anything to restrict that at the moment so I don't see why it would be any different outside the EU. As I said before, all the EU citizens who are already here are unlikely to leave, how would they be removed? In recent years some 200,000 people a year have been granted British Citizenship, they will probably not have been EU nationals because they don't need to. An EU national can only come here if they are working, studying or self-sufficient.
  13. We haven't controlled our borders for decades and most of our current immigration comes from outside the EU anyway. We stopped recording who came in and who left back in the early 1960s. Then there is the question of what to do with those EU citizens who are already here. Most of those who would come are already here.
  14. Vote the way you want, but don't believe for a moment that immigration will be reduced if we leave.
  15. Ain't it just, I'd forgotten how boring these weekends were
  16. So, looking at the table again (if the BBC are up to speed) the Dutch have to win and hope Turkey don't.?
  17. Fair enough, I was looking at the BBC website which was rather messy and slow to update.
  18. They can still get the playoffs if Turkey drop points in their last two games.
  19. Klopp's Kopf?
  20. In. I can see no advantages in getting out, it could only get a lot worse.
  21. Does he always speak in rhymes?
  22. Good point. I have just bought 2 adult and 2 child tickets for Leicester for my daughter and her family and they cost me over £100. For Leicester, FFS.
  23. Fair enough. Was it all converted into equity? Since we're in profit on transfers you might expect that we would have more owing to us in future transfer payments that we owed to others.
  24. You lucky bastard.
