  1. I'm saying that I have seen no evidence that there was consistent demand, thus I have seen no evidence to justify the cost if expansion or relocation. Our club is now run by a businessman, not an idealist. No prudent businessman would spend money adding a few seats to st marys without us being established in the top flight with consistent demand for tickets. Even then it would only stack up if the cost led to a return over a relatively short period.
  2. Just looked at this thread. Funniest thing I have read in ages. MLG are you really saying we need and can fill a bigger stadium, or are you in some kind if wind up? If it is the former you need help mate.
  3. You would have thought that but the judge said that they did not commit the crime. Either way, if there is insufficient evidence then they must be found not guilty.
  4. Someone is serving 16 years for the murder.
  5. Never hold a door open for anyone, but tut and moan if it's not opened for you. Oh, and never wait in line at the deli counter.
  6. I think I read somewhere else that Williams played. He coaches the academy with Dodd. Why would the club allow one to play and not the other - makes no sense to me, so I will file thus one under "boll ocks"
  7. All of the above have a chance of making it. Sinclair in particular looks very good, as does Ward-Prowse. Corby Moore also has promise.
  8. You poor sod! Best point out that marriage is not the institution it once was, that the married mans allowance will never return so they should stay as they are. Its for the best.
  9. That's about the norm, although it's a mad amount of cash. I cant see the point on wasting loads on the wedding. You can have a decent day and night for much less than that. Me and the missus did ours on the cheap, a few sarnies etc and a disco at nursling village hall. Reckon we spent a few grand at the most.
  10. Interesting question and a good op. I would love see us back amongst the big boys, but I agree with the op in that I dont want to go back to a struggle for survival. That said, I dont want us to be a cardiff and nearly go up every year, that would drive me nuts. On balance I would welcome promotion, but hope that there really is money available (i am not convinced there is) to give us a decent chance of survival, and then a platform to help us build.
  11. Spot on. The kid wanted to move onto bigger and better things, nothing wrong with that. He got his wish and we made a load of cash out of it. Good business all round.
  12. Young left back, very highly rated.
  13. Would imagine Holmes on the right, reeves left and de ridder and forte up front. Interesting line up though.
  14. You forget about the admin cost, heat and light etc. Bits of paper do not push themselves around. Staff and bills have to be paid and any sensible business passes the cost to the customer.
  15. One wing on each always looks nice.
  16. Pilgrim House has gone downhill. Decor is crap, service worse and food even worse. Kachina is excellent. Great service and food. Cant believe the nice words for little Buddha, the place stinks of grease and the food is bloody awful.
  17. Wheel
  18. Yes, but due to the cost we test for specific drugs. You pay per drug category, ie amphetamines etc. Alcohol is another category. The testing is so advanced now you can usually go back up to six months and test individual months within that. You can also use body hair if someone does a Britney or reaches for the bleach. Alcohol is normally tested by liver function or carbohydrates deficiency testing though, cos its cheap. Neither is perfect and can be "gotten around".
  19. Not always in urine. Hair will last months, but is not used in football. I get involved in drug testing for work. Loads of people fail hair strand testing after getting through urine tests. People thought Britney was going mad when she shaved her hair... Concateno Tricotech are the main testing company. There website is quite informative oh these things.
  20. Cracking article - thanks. The ones that got away were Sparv and Kritchell. Sparv oozed class whenever I saw him. Kritchell had bags of ability but injury ruined a promising career. Who was in charge when we let Sparv go? Whoever it was should be shot.
  21. Legal costs of eviction proceedings about £20k + with no guarantee of success.
  22. Needs
  23. Shake
  24. Gingerbread has increased the battery on my Sony x10i quite a bit, so would recommend the update.
  25. There is. Various apps. My itunes recognises my Android and allows transfers.
