Thomas to RB, James in midfield I expect.

It's funny because I think most of our team have been playing below-par. Schneiderlin, Thomas, Harding and James have been excellent (and Bart has been faultless) but the rest are playing at about 65%. I'm not having a go because it looks pretty slippery out there but I think it's a good sign that we can restrict Charlton the way we have and grab a goal. Would like to see us playing a lot better than this when we have the ball though.

He's reminded me of little Marian (although obviously not as good) tonight. Seems pretty happy to cut in and use either foot. Nice.

If you are one of the incredible bunch I suggest you start a thread about how you're leaving the forum because someone is insinuating you're a bull****ter.

Absolutely - one of my pet hates too. It always amazes me that people paid to talk about football are so ignorant of it. "He lost control of the ball" - so the defender's knee high two footed assault is not a foul then? Plonkers!

Absolutely. Unfortunately there are too many tin-pot clubs in the Premier League at the moment who have to stretch beyond their means to try to stay there. Rather than address the real issue (lack of financial controls, inadequate cascading of money through the pyramid, the interests of the clubs being mislaigned with the interests of the sport etc...) they prefer to create a tighter little cabal. I support his proposals provided that Bolton, Hull, Wigan, Fulham, Portsmouth, Birmingham City and Blackburn Rovers are mandatorily removed from the new league and replaced with Derby, Notts Forest, Leeds, Sheffield Wednesday, Saints, Norwich and Newcastle. Seems fair to me.

What a bizarre analysis! "Spite" - quite an extraordinary and totally incorrect use of the word. I suppose voting against a shoe-in in a safe constituency is also "spiteful" then?

Can someone let me know how to post on here without using my keyboard? Would appreciate the saving on the wear and tear. Thanks.

Wait for someone to come along and say it should only be used in cases where there's "no doubt". I wouldn't wait for them to be able to explain how that judgment is arrived at though.

Right, look, I'm sorry if I'm coming across as a complete tit. I am sorry. I apologise to all and any who I may have annoyed and I feel sorry for people who have lost significant cash. Really, I do. I am genuinely exasperated, however, by the Fry-bashing on this board. Most of which is either ill-informed at best, or pure speculation dressed up as fact at worse.

Well, according to him that's not the point. In any case, he lost the money months ago.

So, the problem is that it is photocopied not printed? :confused: What exactly do you want the letter to say? I am genuinely intrigued. Do you think Fry owes you an apology? I just don't understand why some people on here are determined to slag him off. The facts that are not commercially sensitive are already in the public domain: Markus Liebherr's company AD235944 Ltd (or something like that) acquired the assets of SLH PLC for a price acceptable to a majority (in value) of the creditors. No point going over that again. I suppose he could have put something about Pardew doing a good job or being partial to a Toblerone. Heck, he could have signed it off with a nice big COYR! I'm not trying to be argumentative, I just don't get the enmity towards him. Losing money really hurts, obviously, but that's nothing to do with Fry.

MK Dons are horse ****.

That's a bit of an exageration.

Oh, FFS. 1) Why on earth should he apologise? He didn't ruin the company. 2) There are something like 28,000,000 shares in SLH PLC floating around. Obviously there are not 28,000,000 shareholders but there are quite a few. Do you honestly expect him to sit there signing every letter? 3) If he did personally sign every letter to all the shareholders then people would be screeching away on here about how he was milking it and trying to keep the clock running. 4) If you require any further information, I suggest you have no hesitation in contacting Alex Sterling of that office. Tell you what, I'll try to help with 4) to save you the trouble: what is it you want to know?

Suicide. Very sad.

I've just signed up to two more concurrent mobile contracts and bought a job-lot of Nokia 5520s.

Nevermind - no one cares.

Robbie Savage was on Radio5Live a short while ago. He said if he could dive to get Derby promoted, saved from relegation, or another person booked he would do so. Didn't seem fussed at all! Actually, I don't think he said "dive" more like "make the most of". Mind you, he is a weak minded ****.

Ouch, that's tough luck. Hopefully you reap an emotional dividend over the coming years which makes the £2,000 outlay worthwhile!

The court wouldn't appoint some kind of rent-a-job administrator, the creditors would exercise their security and make their own appointments (via a court order, granted). You don't half spout a lot of guff dressed up as fact. Weston Saint's post is (probably! ) spot on. [particularly the point about the succcess fee, contrary to the oft spouted myth on here that Fry was sitting on his arse watching the cash role in for as long as possible].

I thought my question was quite wonderfully poised.

Poll please mods: Are Pompey a bit rubbish and a complete joke in every possible respect (players, management, owners, fans, facilities)? "Yes" or "no". I think we have quite a balanced debate on here and it would be good to find out which side of the fence we sit on as a group.

Good appointment for them. We will still stuff them though.
