  1. I asked because I saw a report that Chelsea might have to find around £3m, mainly to cover NI payments, as you suggest. Other clubs would be affected, of course.
  2. http://www.ridgewaysolicitors.co.uk/2011/02/employment-law-update-2/
  3. Agreed, you can't fault him for that. Seaborne & especially Harding should have cleared it but their positioning was awful.
  4. Does anybody know when the Bournemouth tickets go on sale?
  5. 'always keep a-hold of nurse for fear of finding something worse'
  6. Harding could and should have got to the header first. Compare his feeble effort with Butterfield's far post clearance with two players all over him. Harding was too busy complaining about the lack of marking and forgot that clearing the ball was his first priority.
  7. If HMRC win their image rights case then how much more is the club liable to pay? Or does that liability fall on the previous company?
  8. That's exactly how I saw it.
  9. The lack of discipline of Guly and Harding restricted Adkins's choice of how to close out the game. They had to be substituted or they would have been sent off the next time they made a bad tackle.
  10. Just seen the extended highlights. Their third goal looked even less like a penalty than it did at the time. Seaborne just stands still and doesn't raise a foot, even though the ref indicated that he did. Even my missus called it correctly. She said 'he just runs past him and pretends to trip over his leg. He wasn't tripped'.
  11. There's still time for a loan. I just feel that the errors have been getting more frequent lately and it seems to fill the whole defence with the jitters.
  12. And spend next season in League 1?
  13. I've just seen their first goal again and it looks even softer now. The ball bounces twice on the way into the net. I'm becoming all the more convinced that it's time for a new 'keeper.
  14. If we had come back twice from 2-0 down we'd all be buzzing, but it's the same result. The defence was very poor and there was very little composure anywhere. At no time did I really feel confident that we could hold out. Oh well, at least we stopped them from picking up three points.
  15. Why the f**ck didn't Harding head it away ?
  16. Davis again.
  17. We haven't bought one this year. Perhaps some kind soul will tell us?
  18. It's a standing joke between my daughter and me that whichever player is featured in a particular month will be gone by that date
  19. Some people have private banking.
  20. I expect the fans of Lewes do. I was wondering about him just the other day, so thanks for the update.
  21. As an aside, old pennies were made of pure copper and were three to the ounce. Once the price of copper got to £600 a ton then it was worth melting them down. As a schoolkid I went on a visit to Enfield Rolling Mills to see the stuff being smelted and worked which was quite an experience. On one occasion there was a lorry parked just inside the entrance with billets of pure copper and brass, these were about 1 metre square by 15cm thick, and somebody just walked in a drove off with the lot, lorry and all.
  22. I use these http://www.touchsouthampton.com/business/list/bid/3716355#map_directions James Huntley & Sons for aluminium which from memory is about £0.65 a kilo but copper is worth a lot more. You could try giving them a call?
  23. I find such racial stereotyping offensive, be it against mexicans, french, germans, even americans. The presenters are puerile and a lot of the show depends on schoolboy pranks. It's about time they grew up. There could be a good programme in there somewhere.
