I heard this last night whilst watching the game. He needs something different rather than that pathetic " Steve Davis/Kelvin one.

The Westminster paedophile conspricy
Lord Duckhunter replied to CHAPEL END CHARLIE's topic in The Lounge
I read today that Watson had refused to sign a letter from MPs which called for the DPP to rethink their decision that Lord Janner is unfit for trial. Maybe its just Tory and lib dem peados that Watson wants hounded. -
How to manage austerity in a caring society

Rubbish , look at all the positions he's rowing back from. Won't sing the national anthem, now he will. The principled position is " I'm a Republican I won't sing god save the queen ( as I won't myself) , corbyns position is to not sing it until he gets negative reaction and then he will sing it. Instead of saying he won't kiss the queens hand in this pathetic PC ceremony because he's a Republican he pretends to be " busy" . He's been anti EU all his life, but has backed down, he campaigned on unilateral nuclear disarmament but is now kicking trident into the long grass. The man is fraud who has spent his whole life as a student activist and has now suddenly woken up in the real world. Just like the lib dumbs and their hopeless tuition fees gimmick , he's now found out the difference between opposing things and having a coherent electable strategy . -

The IMF have got plenty of things wrong in the past , plenty . You can't start legislating and lecturing the media about what to report . Again , you're blaming the " thick " voters & media rather than addressing the basic fact that the country , many of which are far more intelligent than you give them credit for, voted for the Tories . The biggest lie that labour have run and run with for years and years is that the nhs is not safe in Tory hands . The voters should decide if this is pony, not the courts. Why do lefties always want to control everything , thank god they never get any power. We'd be such a boring and righteous country , as well as being skint. -
Made up for Steve , fantastic pro . Great story , as someone who remembers Spain 82 & Mexico 86 it's brilliant they're back in a major tournament , and with a saint leading them .

But it's clearly not the same thing . Labour & The Unions claimed the jobless figures would go up by millions under GO. It didn't happen , they didn't lie they were just wrong . It is already a criminal offence to lie about a political opponent , I believe the police are investigation George Galloway for this at present . There are libel laws if you print lies . It's nonsense to suggest you cant take someone's policies or beliefs and reach a conclusion . -

Lol indeed . Lol at what constitutes "The Telegraph ". Telegraph view ? no that said May was right . What you should have put was "James Kirkup in The Telegraph called her speech ect ect ", otherwise people might think you were telling lies or trying to mislead people . -

But what's decent and true . Opinions and politics are basically more nuanced than simple right or wrong . Why is saying Corbyn hates Britain any different than saying Cameron hates the poor . Surely saying the NHS is not safe under the Tory government is either true or untrue depending on your politics , rather than any actual facts . There are already laws against lies but quite rightly there are no laws against opinions or your conclusions you gain from studying others views . If you believe that Corbyn or Milliband snrs policies mean that in your opinion he hates Britain , that's a perfectly legitimate conclusion to reach .,it is for the electorate or consumers to judge that opinion , not the law. Just as a court or law can not rule on whether the Tories are " balancing the books on the back of the poor " , or selling the nhs to their " mates in the city " -

How can you have an " unbiased " press ? What do you want reporting that states " Today David Cameron said x y and z" . **** me , yould only need one paper and it would be pretty boring . Bias is seen through the prism of your own views. I think the Guardian is biased and a bunch of sandal wearing half baked lefties read it . A leftie would consider it balanced and in line with British values . How on earth can you have a unbiased opinion piece . I thought Thersea May made a balanced and sensible speech , whereas a load of lefties are screaming that she's Enoch Powell in a skirt. What do you want a bias police to check for bias in the papers -

Some lefties don't seem to understand that The Mail & The Sun are commercial operations and pitch their " opinions" in a place that can bring in the most money . Forget this " it was The Sun that won it" pony. They follow their readership rather than pull ordinary decent folk to the right. That's why their views are incoherent and all over the place. This latest " campaign " against wftc cuts isn't some principled stand or genuine belief , its there because many of its readers are going to be losing money. They didn't convert to New Labour, they just saw the way the wind was blowing.The Sun in jock land even backed the SNP ffs, what more evidence does anyone need than that? They pitch themselves where they feel they can get maximum revenue. If The Sun & Mail ceased to exist England would not suddenly move to the left. Watch what they do for the EU vote, they'll follow the polls rather than try and persuade people. All this pony about Murdoch as some sort of puppet master is pure pony. He is a staunch Republican but The Sun would never call for the end of the monarchy as that would cost them readers. Its just too easy for the left to blame " propaganda" rather than to rethink their beliefs and realise they're out of sync with the voting majority of the country. -
I mentioned this to the ticket office when it happened to me. They said that all the clubs had agreed to sort this growing problem out at source, they didnt want the hassle and aggro that will come with refusing entry to hundreds ( and they said it was 100's) of supporters on the day.

It happened to me at Liverpool for the 1-0 game we won . My mate wasn't going but as I was taking my nipper offered to take his as it would be company for my lad on the train. The extra nipper was a S/T holder but didn't have as many aways as us, so to get us all sat together we used another S/T number that had the right number of aways . The club rang me , (as I had booked the tickets ) and told me the same . They also used Steve's example of the Wigan game and said that clubs would stop consessions for certain clubs if their supporters were taking the **** . They said we were getting a name for taking the **** and saints had promised to sort their end. They were actually pretty good about it and transferred the sale to the lads S/T number as a " one off" because they believed we were genuine and weren't trying to con anyone . It was early in the season and they said it was the first game that they'd run checks and were having to make lots of calls, but we're putting a fix in place . I assumed they had because Im sure my away tickets now default to match your home ticket when buying online . Did you buy over the phone?

Lord Duckhunter replied to badgerx16's topic in The Lounge
Lefties always have the same problem. Instead of looking at where they got it wrong , they always blame the voters . The voters are either selfish or brainwashed by the media . The problem is that if you keep believing that , you'll never take the measures needed to get yourself elected . You only had to watch that half bake Charlotte Church on question time to see an example of this . -

Winter fuel allowence and free TV licences should go . The triple lock is also pandering to older folks just because they vote. I get it that people on fixed income should have their retirement income linked to prices , but that should be it . -

Post-Match Reaction: Chelsea 1-3 SAINTS
Lord Duckhunter replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
Great performance, controlled the second half and the result never looked in doubt. I kept waiting for The Alamo, but it never came. Was more nervous in the last 5 minutes against Swansea than today. Back 4 were fantastic, Pelle gave a masterclass in playing up top , Mane & Tadic looked lively and the midfield worked tirelessly. However, the difference from a month ago is the full backs, they've given us balance. -
Which other club (or clubs) do you follow?
Lord Duckhunter replied to Professor's topic in The Saints
Support is a funny thing really . I was born in Southampton , but would never describe myself as a Southampton , or even hants man . It was fate that my dad had a job in Southampton and I was born there . We moved to Somerset and then Dorset before I was 10 , but I had the bug by then . I have no connections to the city and no family there . I consider myself a Poole man now, love the town and have brought 4 children up here . But , I get that feeling about saints , the gut wrenching sinking feeling when we lose , the ecstatic highs when we win . The worry when we're 3 up with 2 minutes to play , the optomistic delusion when we're away at Arsenal or City . If somebody says Southampton is a dump , I'll just shrug it off or even agree , somebody says saints or their support is shiete , I'll fire up . Why am I waffling on ? Apart from the 5 pints of tanglefoot , it's because of the difference between support and following . If somebody says Poole is a dump or a horrible place , I'll take it personally , but I really couldn't give a flying f about the football club . I can not get into anyone else but saints . The only feeling like it is when I watch my kids . I lived in the states and watched ft lauderdale strikers regularly , but it was just not the same . I don't want to come over all " I'm a better fan than you" , but do others have that same feeling whilst watching their " other " clubs as they do watching saints -
What!!!! He was poor, really poor. At one stage just before half time he blew every tackle. One was down the left right by me and RB clearly won the ball . Cork also rugby tackled VvD on the corner immediately after the goal and yet he gives a soft soft peno . It was right in front of me and even the Swansea players were bemused . It was one of those " look how clever I am " decisions . Nobody would have said a word had it not been given and maybe in slow motion and by the letter of the law , maybe . But if you're not giving the VvD one , you shouldn't be giving that one. He was poor both ways , even giving us soft free kicks . Quite a few players were on his case and it's a good job it wasn't a close game . Shocking performance .

That " small town in Cardiff " chant today was pretty lame.

I thought we were pretty decent first half and the start of the second . The only time we were poor was when the game was already won . The difference this week was balance and people playing in the right positions . Having 2 full backs bombing forward , particularly RB ( who was my MoM for playing like that after a long time out) , made all the difference . As well as he's done lately Targett is just not that sort of full back . And Maya even a week later it's still , WTF Ron . Had we played that team last week , we'd have beaten those Manc twts. There's obviously still more to come , both Tadic and Mane can still produce more IMO , and JRod can only get better . With Classie still to come in and JWP starting to look like a proper player , I'm pretty optimistic tonight .
