Errr I know. 3rd Floor, Hotel Europa, Brno, Czech Republic - why what are you on...???

Connolly scored...? Geeze we must be playing shyte....

Dave is a true leg end - love him.

Ummm I just saw that too - is anybody local ITK....??? Edit: Ahhh right - 1 nil to them then - shall we sack somebody...???

I would have to say that not too many months ago I would have thought that this was utter bollux. I would have argued that all football fans are 'much of a muchness' no matter who they support, and all have their 'good, bad and ugly'. However, like you, having perused many of the PCF forums and comments sections of press releases, I now find myself rapidly concurring with you. There appears to be very little sensible debate from any of them, much of it appears to be juvenile ramblings, which is fine on certain forums, but you would expect the 'voice of reason' to appear somewhat more frequently than it actually does. Perhaps it is as you say, the more intelligent poster has 'given up and gone home', exasburated by the fact that they know they are going to either get shouted down by the masses of morons or labelled as a 'scummer' (superior race, should be taken as a compliment..!). So, I find my opinion much the same as yours - unless of course I've been looking in all the wrong places and somebody can point me to where all the 'real world' PFC fans post.

Ahhhhh yet another MisGuided Missile..... duck everybody.....!!!

My company recently gave me a choice of where I would like to do a training course, either York or Germany. I plumped for Germany - the beer is better....!!!!

It's actually quite worrying, not the article, but the Pompey fans comments. OK, Stan is an easy target, he has history, and I guess he knows he is going to take some stick. But the amount of thier fans that still seem not to understand the concept of sustainable debt and non sustainable is astounding. They continue to quote Man Utd and Liverpool as teams who are much worse run than themselves and who have much bigger debt levels. But they still seem to have misunderstood the basics that these teams can (at present) sustain this debt level and meet their creditors payments. They fail to understand that thier own club have not done this, and have (hundreds) of creditors who have not and probably will not be paid, whilst they continued to compete. This as well from a club that was in administration, what, just over ten years ago. Either they have very short memories or they just don't understand the very basics of both business ethics, sporting achievements and fair play.

Zinc Oxide tape, talc, clean socks, boots back on and hit the road again, grit your teeth and work through the pain - any squaddie worth his salt will tell you much the same.

Yeah but even if you did that - you would have to sit through what, 4 to 5 hours, to see the 'interesting bit'. It's a bit like the European Song Competition - on for hours, nobody watches the songs (do they...?) - but everybody tunes in for the result.

Who knows - will shall see in the next few years as we rise through the leagues and 'invest' in the playing staff & facilities required to compete in those leagues. I care not at the moment where he stands in 'whatever' list, he appears to have the clubs best interest at heart and is running a professional operation - a little like all of his other business ventures. Whilst we all want him to continuously 'splash the cash', should he not be in a position to do so, he has a responsibility to not jepardise the clubs position or integrity. He saved us from possible oblivion, and is now steering us on a survival course. I have confidence in the guy irrespective of how many millions, billions or zillions that he has.

Never mind Ethiopian, I never realised that he was bloody alive...! Who knows next year.... Elvis...?

So boring that I didn't even know that it was on...! Was it today...? Who won, would be facinated to know.... honest...!!!

I welcome them to League 1 and to SMS, good luck to them. Let's be honest, it's hardly the higher echelons of the League and not really a lot to be shouting about. Let them rant like 5 year old kids - I'd much rather we did our talking on the green stuff.

Embellishment of figures like that may lead some to suggest that you could well find employment with Comical Andy down the road at PFC...!! Based on seeing the grand total of no games (other than Wembley): 1. Ricky Lambert - goals win games, big fee and he delivered. 2. Kelvin Davis - somewhat sentimental vote: turned down 'big' money move to bench warm, stayed loyal, got his reward at Wembley, but also because of the amount of times I heard or saw typed 'great save - kept us in it'.

Absolutely FA help at all...! But I chuckled....! I was messing with the DSLR repeat shot function only yesterday - but as I said earlier, that shot was taken on a different camera. FWIW - this is the edited shot which was done using GIMP: Thanks for your help though, and good luck with the new camera.

Don't know TS...!!!! However, what I do know is that I don't really want to change OS just yet, and am currently running Vista HE. I'm just interested to see what sort of thing is possible. Now I know that you can more or less do anything with an image and basically change it beyond recognition of the original, however, thats not really what I want. This actually started because I recently went to a wedding and took (amongst others) this photo of the bride and groom: I should say that this image was not taken with the new D3000, but with an old FujiFilm Finepix F20. Without cropping the image, I want to edit out the lady & gent in the background. I have managed to do a reasonable job of removing the woman, but would like to learn how to edit properly. By the way - many thanks to all those who have replied with help thus far, have downloaded Paint.net, but am open to any advise.

Avram Grant really is getting just a little bit stupid now. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11661_6111765,00.html He continues with the 'it's everybody else's fault' yet when pressed fails to actually come up with an answer as to 'whose'? It is very easy to say it's not fair on PFC, but why oh why can he not see anybody else's view of this and at least acknowledge that, throughout all of this shyte PFC has bloody benefitted, whilst all other clubs (and creditors) have lost out. He really is now just becoming an embarrasment, just think where they would have been had they not cheated.

Have run Norton 360 for 3 years or so, never had a problem with it and it certainly does not inhibit the machine speed wise. Happy Norton user here - I'll stick with it for now.

CHeers Dan. Strangley, I was just looking at this at around half the price: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Adobe-Photoshop-Elements-7-PC/dp/B001ELK946/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=software&qid=1271957890&sr=1-2 The reviews seem to say that it's a bit of a beast of a program, could be hard for a novice to get around. Any thoughts?

Having recently organised all of my digital photos and so decided to invest in a new camera and plumped for the Nikon D3000. The camera is great for a DSLR starter pack, but I now find that I want to edit some of the photos - but I have no idea about which s/w pack to go for. I am a complete novice to this sort of S/W, having only dabbled with a few nobs and buttons in things like PhotoScape, Gimp and Paint Shop Pro, without really knowing what I was doing. Could anybody recommend a good Photo Editing Suite to start with. I don't really want to pay too much for it - certainly don't want to get into 3 figures, but would like something that is quite comprehensive and accomplished (easy to use would also be a bonus). Any help would be greatly appreciated - many thanks.

Makes no mention of that here: http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/170334/West-Ham-boss-Gianfranco-Zola-is-facing-the-axe

Well if that's what all the fuss is about, I suggest some of you get out a little more. Disappointed manager giving frank answers to questions, M's out of m's in my opinion...

I generally tell them that I will get the Master of the house to talk to them, give the phone to my 8 year old son, who loves talking to anybody on the phone, and leave him to it - works every time for me.

Agreed - would much rather go for it than sit on it..
