  1. That's where the problem lies.
  2. That's what all the fuss is about. He and his lawyers think that they did, our government and its lawyers say that they didn't. They were trying to be clever and delay everything to the last possible minute. Now they are appealing because their appeal has been deemed as out of time. There is a technical legal argument about the exact day which independents agree is possibly ambiguous. The fact is that three months give or take a day is plenty of time. He's had his chance, now kick him out. Preferably at 30,000 feet if he doen't want to pay the landing fees.
  3. Not a cock-up. He has had three months to appeal and his was lodged one hour before what he thought was the deadline. That is taking the p1ss. Our government have their view of the deadline. Some judges in Strasbourg have a different one. Our government is under our democratic control. Kick him out.
  4. Nor risk, no gain. Or loss.
  5. Frank's, he's not British, it's not our job to keep and protect him.
  6. Who's playing there? Leicester City have been using the King Power (formerly Walkers') stadium for the last ten years.
  7. We can, we just have to ignore the ECHR.
  8. If she really loved you she'd understand.
  9. Interesting reading. Nice to see that somebody is looking ahead.
  10. This is all a bit previous. There is no option for 'next season'. The gods of footie don't like too much hubris.
  11. I've been speaking to a couple of their followers recently. They feel that they are being punished twice. Not only do they have a points deduction but also they have had to get rid of their best players.
  12. Maybe he just said that he liked karate and it got mistranslated?
  13. It shows how far we have come that we could feel a bit disappointed about not winning the Championship.
  14. I can talk a lot of drivel myself at times.
  15. Well done! Of all the teams who could have been promoted I'm pleased for them.
  16. Or two draws. It's getting more complicated!
  17. Congratulations Reading.
  18. Is there anything associated with your club that isn't?
  19. We're thinking of you Alps.
  20. My dad was a LAC instrument technician in Coastal command working on Beaufighters and Mosquitos. During the war when my big sister was ill they flew him down from Scotland in the navigator's seat so the pilot had to do all the course plotting himself. My dad said that he kept lowering the undercarriage and dropping under the clouds to see where he was. Why would he have done that? He also told me that all the pilots said that they'd rather be in a Beaufighter going in to the attack and a Mosquito on the way out.
  21. I shall cope by not looking until it's all over. I'm a big Jessie where away games are concerned.
  22. Link to image: http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/resources/images/1973724/?type=articleLandscape That should be ok for copyright? Please remove if a problem. The lady in question is the one without a tie.
  23. Yes, I haven't a clue why he was doing, and neither did he.
