  1. Is he that good looking?
  2. One Sommer doesn't make a swallow.
  3. That would help, but I thinka problem with the main speakers is that they start to distort badly when overdriven. This may not be noticeble for music but is bad for speech.
  4. Totes agreed. I was in Itchen North corner and I couldn't understand a word. Bald fellow shouting into the microphone din't help at all. The music seemd ok so perhaps the incompetent in question should be taken quietly to one side and given lessons, or shot or something.
  5. But some posters would only be seeking vainglory.
  6. Some of us remember the days when the whole ground was mixed support.
  7. He was obviously a very wise man. Of course the converse applies to complex people, and what ever happened to Occam's Rasor? Simple things please simple minds, Little trousers fit little behinds. (From my childhood)
  8. Bring Me the Head of Dejan Lovren.
  9. The point is that there should have been no need to queue. We have been holding this sort of event in this country since before even I was born.
  10. The crunchy meaty ones. You?
  11. ...and has been pocketing the extra money every payday.
  12. Thanks for that. I thought it would be too difficult for me on my ipad but it was 2 away and 1 at home. Liverpool got 12, Chelsea 7, Man City 7, Arsenal 3
  13. You went and you're entitled to have a gripe. It was great to get back to watching football again instead of *****ing about on a forum.
  14. Not really. Those at the front of the queue would have got there more than an hour before the kick-off. There's nothing new about going to a game and paying cash to go in. 40 years ago we used to do it all the time with crowds of over 50,000 and pay on the turnstiles.
  15. Yes, hands-on experiments are usually the best, I find.
  16. All fair points. As for Pellè and replacing Lambert's 15 it depends on whether he takes the penalties. How many of the 15 were they?
  17. The gristle was still there but the heads were already in Liverpool.
  18. Yes, I was pleasingly impressed. Has anyone done the 'Tidy Taïder' thing yet?
  19. Late? There was a big queue 30 minutes before kick off.
  20. Good news. Next please!
  21. Sorry, of course you're not. In order to get the maximum brightness out of these LEDs they run them at the maximum current possible which means they tend to run hot and need special device packaging to get rid of all the heat. The hotter any electronic device gets the more unreliable they generally become but LEDs in particular suffer from various progressive degradations and lose brightness over time. That's if they don't fail altogether. They're getting better though The ones we use are for electronic signage and are driven at more sustainable currents which is what I meant when I said that these were over driven.
  22. Does the sport ever get in the way of the eating?
  23. I use tens of millions of LEDs a year and mine are not the over-driven lighting type. They'll go dim.
  24. Yeah, I queued for over half an hour to get my ticket and got to my seat 14 minutes in. Despite it being cash sales with no choice of seat they were still taking 1:25 to 2:00 minutes to serve each customer. The queue stretched back to the Chapel car park when I was being served. Then spent the first half jumping up and down whilst the rest of those behind me in the queue dribbled into their seats and then the 10 minutes before half time getting up and down whilst the alcoholics rushed down to the bar and the little kids wanted daddy to take them to the toilet. The last 20 minutes of the game were just as bad as they all decided to go home early. And I had a little bored brat behind me kicking my seat all the time. As for the game, I was so far up in the Itchen-Northam corner in seat CC3 that I couldn't actually recognise any players.
