  1. The fact is, not only do we have better players we are also able to dominate most teams physically. We're still not the quickest team around but blimey, we must be one of the strongest. We are able to pin teams into their own half for long periods and therefore we will eventually score goals at this level whether we play 4-5-1 or 4-4-2 because those teams will crack and we have the quality to punish errors and take chances. The squad still needs a bit of strengthening overall IMO (could we sustain play-off form without one of Lambert, Hammond, Harding, Jaidi, Trottman for a while?) but Pardew has done an exceptional job in a very impressive manner.
  2. Easy! Right, job done. I'm off out!
  3. What an abysmal football match.
  4. Jesus Christ! Paying wages through a solicitor's client account?! That is very odd indeed. I wonder what has happened to cause this to need to be done legitimately? Obviously in this case everything is above board and Fuglers know everything is legit. Usually though, if a client asked a solicitor to pay wages through their client account, most solicitors would be pretty reticent to do so and would start thinking about whether they need to consider various money laundering regulations.
  5. Also, religion's greatest contribution is architecture and art IMO.
  6. I guess there's no need to criticise people if you believe they will be burnt and tortured by some kind of devil chap for all eternity. No need to rub it in.
  7. Don't talk about me behind my back. My "location" is now only occasionally correct (or "wrong" as most people say).
  8. How about using the correct channels and not hassling the man?
  9. Known in the industry as "Harry's Dream". Maybe.
  10. Very good. Cheers - I actually know Roo Bar (it smells funny) so don't know why I didn't think of that. It's shut. See. Cheers all.
  11. ps - This debate is soooo 18th century.
  12. Nineteen, you don't seem to appreciate what Existentialism is in broad terms (or rather you have only encoutered one subset, which is fair enough). It is not an anti-religious philosophy necessarily. Check out some Kierkegaard - a religious existentialist. He is probably at the "opposite" end of the scale to the pugnacious nihilism of a Nietzsche or Sartre. What existentialists tend to have in common is a sense that all value is subjective. You might find this easier to reconcile with a god-concept, than the thiestic hand-me-down system of morality adopted by traditional Western religions. FWIW - I find absolutely no reason to believe in sentient "spiritual" beings of any sort. Just seems the most unlikely explanation for anything to me.
  13. Is OG any good?
  14. Nah, cos he's innocent; he was on holiday. All will turn out 'triffic.
  15. Good breeding.
  16. Put his email address in the "to" box of your email programme. Click on "send" when you've finished editing the text. HTH
  17. To give you your dues, you seem to have a sense of perspective about this and underneath the humour are aware of the fact that Pompey's rightful level is mid-Championship to mid-League One. Not many sensible skates on here, so all credit.
  18. Howdy all. Anyone know of a pub in Bristol likely to show the JPT match next Wednesday? Walkabout might I guess. Does anyone know of a better shout? Is there anywhere that attracts Saints fans when we're on? Many thanks. Benjii
  19. It's just a disgusting, pathetic, stinking little **** of a club.

    Attendances

    I've lived in Cardiff, Nottingham and Bristol, as well as Soton in the last 10 years and Soton has the worse nightlife by far of all of them. That said, it also has less of the worse elements of those cities. If I was in my 40s and looking to settle down I would choose Soton over Cardiff or Nottingham. But I'm not.

    This is a very accurate post.
  22. If you hurry you have time to arrange that second mortgage first.
  23. Didn't go to Huddersfield, no. Maybe "really good" was over the top but he's a good centre back in League One.
