Bloody hell - all that caps locking - i should have a lie down if I were you.

Give it a rest about Lowe. If you're right and he comes back by a zillion to one chance - we'll all say "well done Richmond you clever old thing." That's what you want isn't it? But he's not so please blow a different trumpet. You're getting as boring as Dalek with his Hoddle fixation. FFS

Please give it a rest.

Why would he come back? His shares in SLH are now worthless, so he can't recoup his money. Maybe its because he's so popular with the supporters.

Man U and Liverpool aren't in the FL. No wonder the premiership broke away. A bit like what's happening in Formula 1 today - are Lord Mahwinny and Max Mosely the same person? You never see them in the same room.

I fully expect League 2 to be rebranded as "League 1A" in the near future then no-one needs to feel inferior.

I think Malinga's brilliant - at least he's a bit different, and does deliver the ball with a straight arm. I know they're both spinners and have been called into question before, but I consider both Muralitharan and Botha's actions to be dodgier. Watch them in slo-mo and I reckon they're both chuckers.

Track? You obviously know as much about cricket as you do about tennis.

Yes I'd remembered he was defending his 110 points from last year but didn't know the points were different this year. Like the man in the orthopaedic shoes, I stand corrected.

http://www.atpworldtour.com/tennis/3/en/players/playerprofiles/pointsbreakdown.asp?player=MC10 Where are these small tournaments of which you speak? By the way, these are out of date (Sunday) I think winning Queens is worth 450 points, so tomorrow his points total should be 9570.

He's not the greatest of all time. There, did it. It was easy.

Tbf I wasn't really talking about people on here but all those ex-pros and TV commentators saying Federer was the best ever. Having said that Sampras wasn't even born when Laver was No.1. And as for this nonsense about the Williams sisters, Justine Henin at 5foot5 and 9 stone didn't have a bad record against them. Size, power and speed is not everything in tennis as some believe. Ivo Karlovic doesn't win many tournaments - and they don't come much bigger or stronger than him.

You can only beat what's in front of you on the surface provided. Anyway who's to say the standard was lower? Sure it was a different game then, but the modern game is all about power and topspin. I've often wondered how a really top serve and volley player like Laver (there aren't any around at the moment) would fare against a 6foot6 baseline slogger - particularly on grass.

Federer may turn out to be the greatest ever - but he's not yet. Rod Laver won 11 Grand Slams - 6 1960-62 and 5 1968-69. In the intervening years he was a professional so was barred from entering Grand Slams. He missed 20 slams when he was aged 24-30. How many more he would have won is anyone's guess but he was totally dominant in tennis. He won all four slams in the same year - twice! A total of nearly 200 tournaments. All that and 27 ATP doubles titles as well. People have very short memories.

But can they? Their debt currently stands at over TWICE their turnover. All the "big 4" are in similar positions - that's unsustainable. Once one of these clubs goes into admin - inevitable in my view - there could be a domino effect.

and a pm for me too pleeeease!

They proved last season that they are League 1 standard players.

Your intelligence shines through like a beacon.

Errr - not the old ones. The whole point I was making. Jeez

I'll have you know that tatty old Swedish cars - when they actually were Swedish - are brilliant. Mine's a Saab. Wouldn't touch a new one though.

Apparently left because he needs hip replacement. LOL

And Dalek3003 the only one debating it - just like his 300 ancestors.

Brennan was right! Viewed from above the proportions look exactly right! It WAS an optical illusion caused by the plinth after all! LOL

Interestingly you can spell "apocalypse" but not "four".
