  1. Is there enough material in an adult's to make two kiddies' versions out of it?
  2. Which one? I'm going for Q.
  3. But men can only do one thing at a time???
  4. My playing days are I we but I could referee it if you like I'm 65, deaf, fat and almost blind so I'm ideally qualified.
  5. That would make sense, but of course there's then a massive profit when they're sold to Man Utd for £27m, or whatever.
  6. There may be other reasons. Maybe the owner has appointed people to run the club as they see fit, within certain guidelines? That's what normally happens in any business.
  7. If we'd sacked him then he would have received compensation instead of us getting some from Spuds. That's a few million £ of difference!
  8. Players valuations (book asset value) are usually written down over the length of their contract. There may be a revaluation if a serious injury forces a retirement, for example. You wouldn't want to revalue upwards mid-term or you might be liable to a tax on the notional profit, unless you had made a big loss elsewhere and wanted to offset it somewhat, perhaps. I suspect this may explain the delay in tying some players down to linger contracts as there book values would probably increase.
  9. I hope mine are waiting for me when I get home tonight. I'm looking forward to the new season, my daughter has moved back to live with us and there are another three young Saints fans to join the swelling ranks.
  10. On the whole, women from the 70s and later tend to have undergone 'surgical enhancements', I prefer the natural look. When I get back to civilisation and a proper computer I'll try and post some before and after shots of famous totties. The delicious Denise is one of them. Unless we're talking about women in their 70s and 80s :letch:
  11. Quite so. Sometimes it doesn't pay to be too nice. Who was it who said 'nice guys don't win'?
  12. Oh dear. If only everything were that simple. 'Milk the club'? Yeah right, she's been putting millions in, maybe she didn't want to do that any more. Let's repeat what has been said before. Debt was converted into equity, taking lots if money out is not as straightforward as it was. There are some simplistic people around that are being very simple.
  13. Are those before or after her operation? That's the trouble with the 70s, they all been touched up or expanded in some shape or form.
  14. Now you know very well that I was talking about what he said when he got off the aeroplane at Croydon
  15. Yes he does. Maybe that's why he took it, the chance to build his own team?
  16. The TV deal helps to cover the players' wages. The figures you often see quoted are when you add up several years' payments.
  17. No point, a statement won't change anything, just ask Neville Chamberlain.
  18. Strop off to where? Liverpool?
  19. All three, to be honest.
  20. Well, maybe thereby hangs the root of the situation.
  21. Yes, this. Take the money and bank it before they find out what they've bought. There are plenty more where he came from.
  22. We don't always agree, but I'm with you on this 100%
  23. All possible but not necessary in order to sell the club. Actually it's illogical.
