Same as every year - f**k all.

Good shout. Just booking the trains so I can get them cheap.

My uncle Bert, who was from Sholing but settled in North Baddesley, fought in Burma and until he died he would have nothing Japanese in his house and wouldn't even get in a taxi if it was Japanese. I asked him once why so he told me of finding the decapitated bodies of friends who had also clearly been tortured. He also said that after that they never took a single Japanese prisoner, whether they were injured, dying or begging and that they also used "cold steel" to do it.

The Far East doesn't really interest me either despite having family who fought in Burma.

Cheers.

How long does it take to get to the ground from Euston?

I read Enemy At The Gates when I was 8 and I've been interested ever since.

There is no evidence, at all, to support it. None. Nada. Zip. WW2, especially in the East, was studied by myself as an under and post grad' under an excellent professor. Considering a trip to Kursk and Stalingrad in summer 2015 if I can get away with it. It's the bomber war, waged by the RAF as opposed to the USAAF, that intrigues me at the moment and Normandy between June - August 1944.

That's where the offensive was halted but there is evidence, both Russian and German, that recon units got even closer than that, including up to the banks of the Moscow river.

It's not a tale.

If we'd taken action when they marched into the Rhineland history would have been very different. We spent a very enjoyable semester at uni when I did my history degree debating this as a "what if".

I've had the c**t on ignore since he 1st crawled out from under his rock but people keep quoting the inbred freak.

Chambers was utterly, utterly awesome.

Pompey, even as a basket case, is still a step up the ladder from Crawley.

Really? When every democratic vehicle is removed then the taking up of arms is all that is left. Sharpville in the 60s and Soweto in the 70s was State sponsored terror. The fought back with the only thing they had left.

Good grief.

He inspired me to campaign outside SA House with others involved in the anti-apartheid movement. He inspired me to believe that hate and prejudice could be overcome.

#Factless has tweeted previously that the earliest that the skates will be able to buy a player will be Jan 2016 having cleared the debt at Xmas 2015. That is based on clearing the debt early.

Utterly drivel.

If you fellas don't think £30m for a 18yo full back isn't good business then you're even more clueless than I thought.

I have to say I have the upmost respect for any skate c**t that makes the long haul up to the NE today to watch a 4th division game.

If they offered £30m we'd be nuts not to take it.

Alas I'm nearer 50 than 40 but yes, just got back in after being out on my expensive toy.

I went from 40 a day to 0 via cold turkey. If you're mentally strong enough you'll do it. If you're weak you won't.

I've been saying that for 30 odd years!
