How do you "downgrade" sea anyway?

What I said before.

You have to be a special kind of **** to keep up such a ridiculous smug veneer in the prevailing circumstances. Really, I bet he is disliked by just about everyone who knows him. An absolute ****, disliked by colleagues and acquaintances alike, with very few genuine friends. What a tosser.

That's just simply a ridiculous comment but anyway it's not really relevant to the thread so I won't mention it... oh

I couldn't care less.

I believe that there is a Tory policy to introduce a voluntary one-off payment of (something like) £6k or £7k to cover all care required in old age.

Certainly, this is a relevant point in my opinion. It is why managers' complaints about referees and opposition players rarely have any gravitas - if they came out and castigated their players for cheating then they might.

The concept of caveat emptor doesn't apply to contracts between consumers and businesses or people acting in the course of business. This wasn't someone having a look at an old motor belonging to a private person and agreeing a price, it was an event advertised and billed in a certain way and run as a business enterprise.

Good point, have any uber-yachts been tracked heading towards the Solent region lately? Is there a third Al-Farage brother? Did Storrie's Australian adventure result in a profitable meeting with Mick Take, property tycoon and barbeque magnate? Has Marc Jackson secured the backing of.... well, anyone? Has Fred Dinenage gathered a consortium of Blue Knights?

Yeah, but Peter Storrie is an expert at football negotiations and deal-making and is probably being eyed-up by the Government for a senior consultancy role so there must be real value in here somewhere, you're just not seeing the bigger picture.

Indeed, unless of course you're selling tickets on the door and have no clue how many people are in there.

Mate, I didn't go to it!

Oceana I believe. I seem to remember a photo of Jaidi in a particularly... er, vivid shirt.

That's a surprise!

That may or may not be true but it doesn't affect the liability of the promoters to live up their own billing one iota.

I said the same thing to my mate on the day!

I'm scared for his health should we win anything major with him around. Just watched the highlights for the first time and yes... I did see it correctly on the day. Charging up the aisle to get a hand on the cup pronto. What a loon. I hope we sign him.

I think that's one of the funniest things I've ever read.

Oh yeah, I can't wait! I almost feel sorry for their small proportion of fans who aren't complete ****s.

He's always had a top work rate for us and tracks back as willingly as any winger.

Train up on Saturday for £1. Train back on Monday for £1. Result.

Agree completely. I was impressed with the "customer experience" (for want of a better way to sum it up)... particularly in terms of getting in and out of the stadium. The PA got on my nerves, not due to the sound quality, just due to the desire to squeeze some music in at all costs. The food prices are astronomical but you know that in advance so get some food before or after. Simple. £4 a pint is roughly what you would expect to pay at most premium sports venues and is not much more than many pubs. As to whether it was all money well spent.... I'm not sure. I think the Millenium stadium was uncommonly cheap though and comparisons between now and then are not really like for like. For starters the price of steel went up massively over the last few years and the cost of finance is obviously higher now also.

I thought the whole thing was insipid and tiresome. The questions were rarely answered and the host did nothing to justify his presence. Complete waste of time.

The best thing about this thread is that I am planning what I would do differently / the same the next time we go to Wembley and it doesn't feel stupidly unrealistic to do so.

Would we have to listen to Kasabian?
