Slight exageration...

What? Sorry, but that is just complete nonsense. Best played loads of times in the Championship (and started a Prem game for us once), as did Cranie. Cranie was an England regular in his age group. Gobern has had a handful of appearances in the Champ and League One and a loan spell in League One. On paper, Best and Cranie were worth more than we will get for Gobern.

Looks like a ****ing Tesco bag. Stick with something simple. Big picture of Markus taking centre stage with a load of red/white background and some simple wording without the name.

To settle an argument - Who do you like the bestest out of...

Ahh, festivals. Where free-spirited, liberal minded, global village, revolutionary, peace and love, cool people come together to get utterly fleeced by major corporations. Got to love the festivals. -
That's over £4m in fees, without taking into acount agent's fees, signing on fees etc... I think that would be an excellent summer (assuming no one leaves).

The qualification was Additional Mathematics GCSE but the paper that we sat to obtain this was based on previous O-Level material. At least, I think that's what the scenario was. It certainly covered most of the following year of Pure Maths A-Level. To be honest, it was some time ago (ish). So I might actually be wrong; in which case, I retract all my maths related comments!

Maths is far easier now. Fact.

You're just a lurker on that one then?
-
Exactly. The whole mindset is wrong.

No, I imagine he's trying to change the invidious mindset that getting a clutch of A-C grades equates to "succeeding" in education. Of course results should get worse. The point of top grades is to identify the cream, the elite. Not to pacify and mislead the average. If there is grade-inflation then exams aren't doing their job.

No, they have said they are getting easier.
-
No it isn't. **** off anyway, you despicable ****.
-
Who said they were "easy"?
-
This doesn't even merit debate. When I did my GCSEs I sat an Additional Maths paper. This was an additional GCSE that was harder than Maths and was supposed to challenge the brightest. It was an old O-level paper and it covered most of the first year of A-level maths. QED. Combine obvious regressive measures like this with schools teacing Mickey Mouse subjects, hordes of semi-literate bog-standard people at "universities" and exam boards which can't even check their own papers properly and you evidently have a discredited exam system.

Can I suggest we don't have his name on it, on the offchance some dinlo spells it incorrectly. There is evidence to suggest that scenario is a possibility.
-
No, no I didn't!

Oh my god:

Who was your favourite foreign Saints player? (current players don't count)

Pahars. Niemi second. -
Discounting Jocks, Taffs and Paddys and based only on players I actually saw play in the flesh (and also going for a back three on account of only being able to think of Skacel at left back): -------------------Niemi----------------- ------Svennson----Fonte-----Claus------ Tessem------Schneiderlin----Ekelund-----Belmadi -----------Berkovic--------Pahars-------- -----------------Ostenstad---------------- Not much protection for the back 4 but would be lovely to watch when it actually had the ball! On the bench: Keller?! Fernandes Jaidi Cherednik Kachloul Guly Delgado Squaddies: Monkou van Gobbell Jones Saiejs (for that free-kick at Watford, if nothing else) Slater Safri Viafara Can't help thinking there must be some pretty decent players since 89/90 that I've forgotten!

Yeah, the club are clueless... just look at their track record when it comes to shirt sales!

I singed someone's hair with a Bunsen burner once. It was an accident.
-
He never said burn them to death. Maybe he just means burn them a bit until they toe the line. I think we can all endorse that as a sensible and proportionate response.
-
Yeah, mush. I really love looking like a bell-end on my hols too!! Lolzz!!11 It's the one thing that sustains me through the desolate summer months.

What an odd stadium - that mini-stand behind the goal looks funny.
