  1. 3 points and £60, Enjoy! Surprised you got a notice of intended prosecution at that speed though. It's ususally just a fixed penalty offer.
  2. Sorry but the content of this one no longer appears to be Saints related!
  3. No, you were baiting and looking to stir up trouble on this issue. You're simply using someone elses beef to sound off your dislikes of certain moderators on here. I have emailed Roman, appologised, and explained that the moderation and administration on this forum is done on a voluntary and unpaid basis. We try to cover all bases at all times but we're not superhuman and sometimes things are missed. As soon as I was made aware of this issue I deleted the offending thread and took the necessary action. There's really no need to start a public slanging match off about it is there?
  4. Well done Lewis. He's done just enough this year to win the Championship and has riden his luck at times but all in all, definately deserved. I just can't wait for next season now. There will be 4 or 5 drivers battling for the title next year, it should be awesome. We'll have Hamilton, Raikonnen, Massa, Kubica and possibly Alonso (if Renault come up wth a good car over the break) all on fairly equal terms. I wouldn't say that Hamilton was necessarily the best driver this season and he has showed at times that he is still a little raw but I think he will become one of the all time greats. There are some great drivers around at the moment and it's great to see. I'd love to see a one off race series of say, 5 races, with all the drivers in identical cars. Who would win I wonder?
  5. Please don't start threads like this on this issue. If I didn't make it plain enough I'm sorry. Just don't raise the issue of racism at all. There's not point in trying to suggest there is a place on this forum for balanced discussion on the issue because there blatantly isn't. Therefore, steer clear of the whole racism issue and we'll all be happy. I'm sure we can all do that can't we?
  6. I'd just like to add that if anyone feels a post is in any way racist can they please report it to the admin team and we will investigate it.
  7. ... will no longer pass unpunished on this forum. Anyone found to be posting anything along these lines will be infracated, there will be no warnings. It's time to cut this out as it's unwanted and unnecessary. Thank you.
  8. I like the way that they put cameras on the slip road to the services. Stops people driving like a nob, stopping for a coffee, and carrying on!
  9. It's a scientific fact that women have less spacial awareness than men. I'll quite often see the wife wince as we go through a gap between 2 cars even though I can clearly see that we've got loads of room to spare.
  10. What really ****s me off is people sitting 2 inches of your bumper in a traffic jam. Then, everytime you move another 2 inches, they move right up your arse again maintaining their 2 inch gap. What is the point? If people do it to me I'll sit there and turn the engine off and let a nice big gap build in front of me just to **** them off.
  11. Can we please get this thread back to what i's supposed to be about. Sundance - stop using it as an opportunity to yet again raise your personal views on Daren. We all know where you stand and we don't need it rammed down our throats again thank you. This thread is about column writing and if it continues to stray off topic into another round of personal abuse it will be deleted and that would be a shame now wouldn't it.
  12. Summers, if you want my advice mate take the £10 starting price of all of them. You'll never get any interest otherwise. Start at about £2 or £3 to get it going.
  13. I reckon it'll be in the 13's tonight.
  14. Having a 2 year old daughter who means the world to me this leaves me chilled to the bone. How you could ever do that to your own defenceless young child is beyond comprehension. I would have no problems flicking the switch on this mans electric chair, though that would unfortunately be mercifully painless. And yes Rob, I'd have to say that is 'emotion led'
  15. Amen to that Marlin and I'm putting an end to this one. Too much dirty washing being aired and not the place to be doing it. Subject closed.
  16. I think he's been fantastic this season and has saved our skins in many a game. I still feel his positioning on set pieces can be suspect at best but I'll not knock him too hard as his shot stopping has been a joy to behold.
  17. I wouldn't bother to be fair as I'll probably just lose my temper with you. You are entitled to your own thoughts, right or wrong, so lets just leave it at that.
  18. I is going and I is planning on much drinking. I don't get to so many away games now I have family responsibilities so I'm going to make the most of it. Apparently it's crap for pubs though!
  19. Slander, libellous, whatever! My Dad used both words this morning after he'd read Long Shots comments. It's very easy to casually pass comment like this without thinking of the consequences. And yes, you are a pedant!
  20. Then I suggest you look hard at your wording. It would definitely imply to me that you feel that Bob, and Bob alone is 'idle' and 'coasting' in comparison to the likes of Graham and David. Harsh words I think and no, I won't calm down. I consider your post insulting and to see my Dad as angry as he was this morning I think he does as well. He considers it a scathing comment that undermines his professionalism and I have to say I agree.
  21. I have just come back from my parents house and I have to say my Dad is very upset with your comments. I'm sure I may appear biased but as far as I know my Dad worked his arse off every day during his tenure at the Echo. He is considered one of the most respected and professional sports journalists to have ever graced it's corridors both by his peers and readers alike. I'd like to know just exactly what you base your accusations of coasting and idleness? He is really quite gutted by what you have written and I suspect he will be contacting you himself. He has always considered himself a consumate professional and is very proud of his achievements over his 40 odd years at the Echo. He feels your comments are bordering on slander and I suspect he would like an explaination. Everybody is of course entitled to their own opinion but when the basis of that opinion appears to have no real substance it has to be questioned.
  22. It's a bit like saying 'I need a car'. I've got £20k to spend. What should i get?
  23. I don't like 'em myself but pizzas, well that's a different matter! I know I'm fat mate. It doesn't matter though, I'm married now!
