  1. I feel the same. First game since the opening day of the season for me as I'm recently back from holiday. It will make a change from finding out the score on line on a hotel PC.
  2. Time to combine income Tax and NI. The whole tax system needs to be simplified, this would save money if nothing else. Also child benefit should be scrapped, if you can't afford to have kids don't have them. And yes, I am a parent by the way.

    New York?

    We went to NYC at the end of May, had a great time. Personally I would advise against the Hop on bus, there is an awful lot of waiting around. Use the Subway and do plenty of walking. If you have a smartphone check out the apps for the subway, very useful. Best bit of our trip and very reasonably priced too was climbing up the Statue of Liberty but you won't be able to do it for much longer, you also need to book well in advance as numbers are limited. We spent lots of time in Central Park, did both Rockafeller and ESB, one in the day the other at night, walked across Brooklyn Bridge, did a Broadway Show. We stayed at the Intercontinental NYC, a couple of blocks from Times Square. I would advise flying BA, you will get to use T5 which is nice and if you park at T5 Business parking you can get to use the cool futuristic 'pods' to the terminal.
  4. ..of which Bale is just as much a part of as any other player. Sorry but this comes down to supporting England against another nation (albeit a home one). If you profess to support England in other sports but not football then that is indeed weird. If you were not expecting any abuse after your original post then that is even weirder. I think your attitude is probably purely down to frustration at following England over the years, we have seen plenty of evidence at your impatience when supporting Saints. Thankfully the 20,000+ who go to games aren't as fickle. Thanks Smirking, I am fully aware Alps lives abroad, this was my feeble attempt at a little humour.
  5. If you hate England so much why don't you **** off and live somewhere else?
  6. Two guesses who made those comments!! "the club needs a properly elected system with fans representing their interests" No it doesn't!
  7. Ask him if he thinks the club could be run better by a committee made up of members of this forum.
  8. It was squeaky bum enough for me just logging in to get the result.
  9. Just logging in from Tenerife, was it as close as the score suggests?
  10. Just managed to get online in Tenerife after a sleepless night not knowing the result. Thanks for the reports, just seen the goals. What a great feeling about this club. Absolutely bloody brilliant!!!
  11. Look, I'm off on holiday tomorrow. I would very much appreciate it if this could be sorted out before I leave FFS!
  12. Someone has posted the same on TUI, and no it's not Patred.
  13. After reading a thread/arcticle like this I always wonder what is happening about the redevelopment of Staplewood, has it started yet? When complete 'one of the finest academies in the country' will be even better.
  14. We are probably 'interested' in both and are keeping our options open. If things don't work out with one then we go ahead with the other.
  15. Season Ticket?
  16. I asked a similar question the other day, I ended up with Brian Moore and the Tony Cascarino one above. I would have gone for Bobby Robson but it was unavailable in paperback. I would reccomend All Played Out by Pete Davies, it's all about a fans perspective of Italia '90, a great read. Have a good holiday, I'm off myself on Tuesday, it will be nice to get out of the country for a couple of weeks.
  17. Ah, but there's more to come Alps.
  18. That's right the Socialists make a complete balls-up and leave it for others to clear up. Sorry, I am no fan of the far right but the socialist economic and social policies have done enormous harm to this country.
  19. Agree with this article: http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/katharinebirbalsingh/100100161/no-wonder-these-kids-think-stealing-trainers-is-ok-everyone-makes-excuses-for-them/
  20. I've got a semi!
  21. As I was typing (knowing full well it's his 18th birthday in a few days) I thought MLG would correct me, now you've gone and spoilt it you b*stard.
  22. It would certainly not be the end of the world if AOC left, far from it. However I do feel it will be a shame, not only for the club but for him aswell. He's only 18 FFS, he'll hardly get a kick playing for Arsenal, but could have one or two more good seasons in the NPC.
  23. Brilliant, shall we just call him 'Tippex'?
  24. What cracks me up is when he thinks he's won an argument he politely asks his opponent to apologise. Sometimes he even invites them for a face to face discussion, with that slightly sinister hint of violence. Of course I knew when I had really arrived on the forum when he called me a retard. Turks, I assume you and Del Bianco are one and the same?
  25. He seems to have an incredibly high opinion of himself. I think most people just laugh at him. The only reason we didn't want to see hime leave this forum was down to the entertainment value.
