Now why doesn't that surprise me I wonder. I was watching the news earlier and they showed loads of people lining The Mall draped in Union flags getting ready for the royal wedding tomorrow. Was one of them you by any chance dune?

It may be four years to the day today, but surely we should celebrate the anniversary tomorrow, being friday and all.

Surprised it hasn't been taken down already TBH!

It wasn't all hot air. I was a mod on this site at the time and was privvy to certain information, and I have it on good authority that the board of SLH did indeed meet to talk terms with representatives of Paul Allen, though he was never directly involved personally. I assume this was so that he could deny any interest whatsoever if/when it all fell through.

That's one. Two more and we're over the line. Don't know if my nerves can take it though because you can bet that Hudds will push us all the way, and if Brighton defend like they did today against Hudds next week then you wouldn't bet against them winning.

WOOOOOOT FOR DAGGERS!!!!!!

Fantastic. That's given us a fair bit of breathing space. Could do with Daggers getting a goal to ease the pressure but we're keeping our side of the bargain and that's all that counts right now.

B0llox. It was my nun what done it!

Well, we've just got to keep chipping away. And if that doesn't work, maybe we should drive the bus through their defence.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-13184594 The most blatant violation of the terms of UN resolution 1973 yet. There will be a lot of backlash about this I reckon. While ultimately I believe that the removal of Gadaffi is morally the best option, the allies are now playing a dangerous game by openly trying to kill him using air strikes as it will only generate sympathy for him from so far neutral states. This isn't going to end quickly or easily.

I'm slowly upgrading my PC. Just bought a new ASRock N68C-S mobo and gonna get a new processor to go with it when I get paid, but ideally I need to replace my ageing Geforce 8500 graphics card as well. I don't really want to spend silly money, and I came across this one and was wondering what people think about it or if anyone has any other recommendations.

... to incur so much hatred and vitriol from the Brighton fans and manager?

Yes, they can. They are on 93 points and have 3 games left.

Does anybody know why Brighton and Hudds fans call us SCC?

???????????????????????????? How does he work this out??? Claridge has never made any secret of his hatred towards Southampton and still cannot bring himself to praise us in any way despite our current position.

Somebody mentioned earlier on this thread that there has been some bad blood between Poyet and Clarke at Hudds already in the game at the Galpharm this season so I imagine he will be treating the game exactly the same as he did with ours yesterday - making up a little rivalry where none exists.

It seems that when Bill Shankly said that football is more important than a matter of life and death, a number of people have difficulty realising that he didn't actually mean it. Whatever this is about (it seems pretty obvious that it is to do with the Irish sectarianism thing but I don't want to jump to any conclusions) people need to get some perspective. Football rivalry can be bad enough without the need to bring religious differences into it. I suppose I am lucky that I have never lived in that world where kids have a hatred of other ethnic / religious groups instilled into them from birth, but I truly cannot get my head round it sometimes.

Even so though, the headline and the thread title make out like DC has already blocked the move, where in fact he hasn't; all he has done is voice his own personal opinion about Brown's suitability for it. I agree that when push comes to shove and Cameron is given the opportunity to veto it then he would probably elect to do so, but the media and the OP are making it seem that he already has, thus sensationalising a nothing story.

Let's just get this into a little context here. I was listening to the today program on R4 when Cameron made this 'attack' yesterday, and the reality is that he was put on the spot by Evan Davies about it and, when pushed for an answer, replied that he had not spent any time thinking about it but that his own personal opinion was that he may not be the most suitable person for the job. He did NOT say specifically that he would block or veto the appointment, but hey... never let the actual facts get in the way of a good bit of over-dramatisation by the media.

I was thinking this earlier and I reckon this is our only real hope of getting anything from the game. If he plays a full-strength team, with no pressure on them as the title is already seasled, it would be hard to bet against anything other than yet another home win.

Something tells me this won't be an issue next season ;-)

So FBI documents confirm the 'nutjobs' were right all along, and yet you still classify them as nutjobs? Interesting

I live in south Sheffield and it reckons I am 168 miles from SMS (which sounds about right) and 27 miles from Huddersfield Town, but you are apparently 99 miles further from SMS than me despite only being 1.3 miles from Hudds Town. Something's not right here.
