The Whole Nine Yards Fast & Furious Armegeddon Force 10 from Navarone Titanic 7 Pounds

"I don't like this anymore than you". Of course not, it's a sh!t job, but someones got to do it.

Didn't see that one coming. Lets hope he can help turn things around, personally I was never really sure he was up to it anyway, but if he's wearing red 'n' white, I'll be cheering for him. FWIW my view on the u-turn, is that the spat was clearly between NC & Puncheon, I wonder if NA has had a quite word with the pair of them, maybe explaining to NC that we could probably do witrh an extra pair opf legs at the moment?

The RE teacher at my school was an atheist, he explained that you didn't need to be religious to take an interest in religion. He was right, I didn't take it as an option, but when we did it in during the lower school humanities rotation, I have/had no religious feelings, but he was a very good teacher and I found the whole thing quite interesting. He told us that it was mandatory to teach RE, and this is done through the school assemblies, to make sure those of us who chose not to study it to exam standard, got a dose of enlightenment.

A bit of an over reaction I think, granted he didn't have a great game, being played out of position, but there have been many players at this club since we were relegated from the prem, who were far worse & less comitted than Harding. I'm not sure what else Adkins could have done last night, no Lambert, no Fonte, no Chaplow, no Jaidi, no Lallana, no Butterfield, he was down to the bare bones of the squad, and the replacements didn't put in a shift last night.

That was awful. It wasn't the defeat, it was the manner of defeat that disappointed me, I can't recall us playing so bad since our relegation season in the Championship. The only players who came out of it with any credit were Hoover & Davis. We need to get the injured back asap & I believe normal service will be resumed.

I don't think I'll lose any sleep over it. I suspect the bull ended up worse-off.

Wow. I don't envy you one bit, I last looked yesterday afternoon p963, I "only" had 7 pages to get through.

As you say a clean sheet is nice, but should goal difference be equal at the end of the season, goals scored is the deciding factor, so in that respect 4-2 is better. Clause 9.1: http://www.football-league.co.uk/regulations/20110629/section-3-the-league_2293633_2125717

Right from when they were babies we had a bedtime routine, as newborns they were put in the cot at 6pm, so they were in a room on their own & if they cried we left them, we positioned the cot so we could see them, but they couldn't see us, that way we could check them when they cried without them knowing we were there. Both were sleeping through the night by 3 months, pretty sure the eldest was going through by 6 weeks. As they got older the routine changed, I can remember doing the Cbeebies thing as well. The routine was always the same, Cbeebies, jim-jams, teeth, bed, story & telling about something (I had to explain to my eldest how something worked, light-bulb, tv, whatever he chose, this was carried on to my youngest). We've never had any problems with either of them going to bed, or getting to sleep. We were quite strict about it though, we learn't from friends who weren't, they let their kids fall asleep whilst watching a dvd, and even now at the ages of 13 & 16 they are having problems.

The female welsh accent is tops for me. Worst is probably the Brummie.

"Few pulls" Try wearing red stockings luv, you'll get more takers.

I'm not sure the OP can garner too much credit for it though. I'm sure I heard Cleggy use it when this first blew up, unless Cleggy reads this forum of course.

As do I. It is clear from the coastguard tapes that his actions after the capsize were deplorable, you don't accidentally fall into a lifeboat with your second & third in command, but as to the actual cause of the accident, only an investigation will come up with the reasons why it happened. I doubt he will get a fair trial now anyway, and this could lead to a mis-trial and probably an appeal.

That's because they're concept drawings, you don't get details until planning stage (& with smaller projects until Building reg stage). It'll never happen though.

As mentioned above, Venison, Speedie, Dixon & Hughes were all big names when they came to us & none delivered, I don't think anyone has yet mentioned Chris Woods, with 40 odd England caps you expected something useful, but unfortunately he was well past his sell-by date & pretty abysmal (IIRC).

I think it best to wait until any investigations are complete before speculating wildly. What Doubleonothing has said is very informative & clearly written by someone who has knowledge of the industry, unlike the vast majority of posters who are happy to besmirch a mans reputation based on tittle-tattle, and media supposition. I'm very surprised that the ships owners have already laid the blame with the captain before the VDR/VER have been recovered, I wonder if they have something to hide?

I hope your good lady doesn't read this forum.

I've got a couple for my boys. Was sometime ago though I didn't realise there were others available.

A pollcat?
