  1. How are you going to get back?
  2. Amongst much more: 'All of England’s pace was out wide, with the centre far too slow to support the lonely Lambert'
  3. He was far from the worst. Our whole midfield couldn't make a ten yard pass find its target.
  4. Woeful passing from players who should be a lot better than that.
  5. It would look better in stripes, and where's the statue?
  6. Wow, that's what I call a fetish! You were wise to have removed his clothes first, might have Rwanda good T-shirt.
  7. Only a drop ball, I'm afraid but the organising committee might want to apply some other sanction.
  8. Even the under 18s and teetotallers?
  9. Nope, can't see a chronic pun anywhere in there.
  10. Are you sure Yement to say that?
  11. Sunday Phil! If you're not careful you could have spent all Saturday at the beach bar and then slept through the match.
  12. I've run out of names, does anybody have Samoa?
  13. Norway would that have happened.
  14. I'm Ghana read another forum.
  15. [duplicate post]
  16. Yes, not happy. They told me the Itchen, a couple of blocks in the Chapel and a couple in the Northam. Of course, going on previous behaviour if all these sell out then they may well open up the Kingsland but I doubt that that will happen.
  17. I drove past there this morning and there's no sign of this shop.
  18. I see no reason to change my iPhone 4S.
  19. Oops, perhaps I'm in your seat Look carefully, it doesn't promise you your own seat, just the opportunity to buy one. I went down to the TO last Thursday in order to buy my seat only to find that the whole stand is closed!
  20. All in use for the competitors, I expect They had on-site parking as well so she was as close as she old get.
  21. We're not sure whether it was the 10,000 metres or the long jump. Either that or all the walking that she had to do from the car park.
  22. My sister took my mum to them. She then had a couple of months of severe arthritis, but she was 92 at the time.
  23. You could be right, it would explain a lot Of course it could be the other way round and it's everybody else that gets a false opinion. How else could you explain the alleged popularity of Strictly Come Dancing or Big Brother?
  24. I've just seen this post. I have seen various figures up in the range £9bn to £11bn. Some of this was lottery money but it's difficult to get anyone to admit to the real figure. From my point of view I don't want to pay for one penny of it, but I would like to see better sports facilities at local levels and this I would be prepared to pay for.
  25. Quite so, I would'nt make it up. Let's take my 85-year old neighbour for a start. He doesn't care about the Olympics in the same way that he doesn't care about football or golf or a hundred and one other things. He only really cares anout his cats and his garden and you won't find him in a pub cheering on Mo Farah. Then there are the people who work for me, a secretary in her 40s, my co-director in his 40s and a young apprentice. They all have other priorities and it's the same with my suppliers, they really couldn't give a toss. That's not to mean that I don't know people who enjoyed them or took an interest in them One of my sisters did but she used to do the pentathlon for Enfield Harriers and lives on the fringes of London so it's not surprising. All that I'm saying is that there is a whole group of people out here for whom the Olympics were an irrelevant distraction and who never watched one minute of them. Nothing wrong with that.
