  1. A great result, very important, but it just starts to get us back on track from here and we need to win the next few games. I'd like a clean sheet now and again please.
  2. My agenda is to try to see the other fella's point of view, to present an alternative perspective, to speak up for those unable or unwilling to speak up for themselves. To try to see that there are no unalienable truths, just alternative versions of reality. To try to see the good in everybody and everything.
  3. No, well I don't of course but I was giving general advice for anyone on here who looks vaguely like a normal human being. Wasting my time, really.
  4. The same applied to Gascón in the second half. He could have played the ball out to the right but hung on and Dyer caught up and nicked it off him.
  5. Probably more than a new tv.
  6. So, 27 games left, 3 new managers, sorted!
  7. Quite right. We don't make the same mistake twice.
  8. Well if Nigel can't even get that right...
  9. I agree. He obviously didn't know that Dyer was on top of him. All he had to do was turn right instead of left when receiving the ball and it would have bounced outfield. Anyway, any Premier League player should have been able to control that ball without it flying away off his chest.
  10. Just seen MOTD. Unusual, but I agree with the pundits, the Williams incident probably not a penalty but certainly not a dive. The Monk one was a definite body charge and Monk was inside the area. Very poor decision.
  11. I saw that Swansea were wearing black armbands but we weren't. Any special reason for this?
  12. Somehow we worked the ball the length of the pitch back to Gazza in two lumped passes and what did they expect him to do with it?
  13. You think so? Nothing wrong with the subs today.
  14. I saw a tattoo shop in Winchester this morning: 'Buy one piercing, get one free. The other can be used for a friend'.
  15. My son's new S3 has just gone back for repair after 20 days. Every time you powered it off it would restart itself. Factory resets did nothing. We had to take the battery out for 26 seconds or more to make it stay off, any less and it would restart again when the battery was re-inserted.
  16. Oh dear. If we win they'll have to go there every week.
  17. I expect that anyone connected with any other Premiership club would want him to stay.
  18. My head hurts. So if 50% of the teams who were bottom have stayed up, 50% must have gone down. Does that only leave 3% for the other two teams?
  19. And always keep a-hold of nurse for fear of finding something worse.
  20. Isn't it two? They have changed and have improved. We haven't changed....
  21. We went to the cemetery at Colleville on a Sunday a few years ago and I was surprised to see how many French families were quietly and respectfully walking amongst the headstones. I was in Paris for the 50th anniversary of D-Day and all the bars were decorated with French, American and British flags and all the French that I met were very appreciative of what had been sacrificed to liberate them. I met an American there who had been an eighteen-year old coxswain on a landing craft at Omaha beach, and Slapton Sands and Guadalcanal. Quite a character.
  22. Bolton at the Dell with loads of fans locked out. Barry Horne's screamer right into the goal I was standing behind.
  23. Allotrope
  24. We could be playing them next season.
