PES

New men in the picture, god I hope it's not true. I'm more than happy to be a Premier League survivor, who want's to be challenging Man City for players that will never sign? Kids and ****s. thats who! :mad:

Dear god almighty.

Pompey legend!

I thought you'd been taken over 4 times haven't you?

 

The Icelandic lot, Saudis, South Africans and Americans.

 

And that's just since November isn't it?

Dont forget the Swiss.

swap `conned' for `raped and pilaged'.

Hello Chez, Agreed, He is a total crook, I can't believe his name ever comes up where any kind of Job is concerned. Not a nice man at all. :mad:

PES.

 

Shut up

Ok, Sorry Marion.

If Sven Goran Ericksson takes over then clearly this is an indicator that Pompey as Storrie alluded to, are about to be taken over. Obviously that's good news so long as it's not a takeover of a Man City Magnitude, that would be truelly horrendous!

Curbishley. Who will keep them up easily.

Curbishley won't come. He is embroiled in a legal dispute with West Ham over his sacking. Should he take another job it would jeopardise his legal claim to compensation.

Who told you this?

The Internet told me.

Thing is he was never going to do as well as Rednapp did,because he had to sell some of his players,wasnt given the money Rednapp was and of course Rednapp took Defoe with him.

Who would you like to see manage Pompey PES?

Evening Rock, um, Avram Grant. I think it's nailed on anyway. Though I did hear a rumour that Kevin Keegan was on the agenda! Though thats surely a pile of crap!

I'm saddened by this. I never wanted him in the first place, but always feel when you appoint a manager he should have time, even IF it means relegation. Decent man, he does not deserve this.

 

But don't just think of those within the Ford gates. What about staff in small local companies who support the Ford Plant? Small metal pressings, the seat makers adjacent to the plant and even the local baker who supplies rolls to the canteen.

 

Then what about those who can't (or will not) find work? They will be entitled to benefits. So your council tax takes a hit. The country, as a whole, has to fund payments to however many families are hit this way. Free school meals, uniform subsidies, free travel.

 

Local shops will suffer, where people cut back also.

 

Importantly relevant to this forum, how many will no longer be able to buy season tickets or game by game tickets for Saints?

 

And so it rolls out.

 

Not a good time for anyone I think.

 

And, as I said earlier, there's probably more to come.

You paint a very bleak picture ESB, wish I could say I disagree with you.

Thats and awful lot of jobs and a big blow to the area, likely to be the tip of the iceberg. I'll tell you what F**** me off the most, Why is it that when the highly paid financial sector F**** up, it's the ordinary man on the ground who gets the bullet? I know thats a naive way of looking at it, but I saw it first hand in 1994 (Redundancy) and to see it happening again F**** me right off!

Am going to New York in June, hotels are SO expensive! Have somewhere booked up already, but is that place above shared bathrooms? Because the GF won't have it!

Yes, shared bathrooms. My missus was dead against it, but she wanted to go for 2 weeks and it was the only way we could afford a long stay. However she said she quickly got used to it and was chatting away to all the yanks staying there, I think she quite enjoyed it in the end, despite her reservations.

I'm fairly sure I've stayed there as well!

Fantastic isn't it Deano! Spartan though it is, accomodation in New York is spectacularly expensive so if/when I go again i'll never book anywhere else, unless I come into some money from somewhere! (Fat chance)

If your on a budget the 64th Street YMCA is absolutely brilliant! I stayed 14 nights here and never ran out of things to do, there really is no place like NYC!

Why not hire a car and do a loop around? Say NYC, Atlantic City, Washington and Philadelphia before driving back to NY. I did that and it was brilliant I stayed at Super8's:

and Motel 6's motels:

, cheap as chips and can sleep upto 4 to a room. You might not be on a budget if so ignore all i've said, I love going to the states and my favourite thing to do is fly-drive!

Are you stupid sir? If you bet on Pompey but they don't get relegated noone's going to give you a penny!

Quite often Deano, but in this instance you misunderstood me.

Going to bed now! Get my 5 hours in before the big event! Hope it's a good one! My prediction: Cardinals 9 Stoolers 21

Now 9/4 to go down .. could happen. Anyone else get on at 14/1? I would love picking up my winnings on this one!!

Always better to bet on Pompey, that way you can't lose. If Pompey go down, you'll be happy, if Pompey stay up you can console yourself with a nice meal on the good people at PFC, you can't lose. I've edged my bets like that with Saints a few times, think of it as a disappointment insurance policy!

When are the Raiders gonna get good again?

 

They were always "my team" going back to the days of Marcus Allen, but they've been awful for years now.

 

You'd have thought with the draft system they'd have had a decent spell in the last 15 years, but they're always crap.

 

I'm not a big fan by the way, used to watch it a lot a few years ago (first Super Bowl I watched was Bears-v-Patriots,XX), but am just curious.

That was my first Superbowl too! Sh*t team the Raiders, but very cool colours!

I would rather 'got down with it. with a homeless whore from deepest darkest africa than watch the superbowl

Your loss.

I doubt it'll be as good as last years one - although that may be biase speaking as I follow Giants

Really looking forward to this one though.

I agree, last years was a bit special, made even better by the fact I backed the Giants Each way at 33/1 going into the play-offs, I even resisted the temptation to lay off a sum on the Patriots in the Superbowl game! By comparison my bets this year were pathetic. At various stages of the season I backed the Cowboys and the Colts,what a *****. :mad:

As a Cleveland Browns fan it pains me to say it, but the Stoolers will win by 21-9. Cant see Cardinals having any joy with the Stoolers Defence, which is quite frankly, awesome.

As an aside does anyone have an 'Approach' to watching the Superbowl? For example, my wife and I always go to bed about 6PM Superbowl Sunday, get up at 11PM and eat Chilli Tex Mex, Nacho's and a few Cans before going back to bed for 2 hours or so before getting up for work at around 6.30AM, I love The Superbowl and pity anyone who can't bring themselves to enjoy it. I can't wait! :smt054:D

Get over it. He robbed from some pikey skate barmaids, who cares? Saints legend.

Then the Bar really has been lowered if thats what it takes to become a Saints legend in fans eyes? Your old loyal club stalwarts would be turning in their graves.

getting to the Cup Final is a curse, us, Millwall, West Ham and now the Skates.

hmmmmm, never thought about that. Got me worried now Nadia.

How is he still ours? He cost you guys a goal today? And went to you lot after we made the play offs.

 

A Skate and no mistake, and not up to the mark.

Correct Colin, I guess anyone crossing the divide has to do an awful lot to ever become one of 'ours'. He will be handy in the championship should we need him, however, Glen Johnson he aint.
