  1. I think we must just be getting too old
  2. I have read the thread with interest as I have never thought Corden funny but thought I must be missing something
  3. Well the Daily Telegraph think Heskey did a good job Emile Heskey had little time to make any real impact, although did hold the ball up effectively during the final minutes to ensure England closed out a tense victory. Fabio does know what he is doing you know - one of the best coaches in World Football By the way it is a shame that Lambert does not have Heskey's pace because he would be in the England team but probably not Saints
  4. Because he bought on Heskey we did not concede a goal but of course if we had he could have still brought on Crouch Heskey does a particular job reasonably well but I agree he is not an out and out goal Scorer
  5. I dont think that was how Capello saw it. The Slovenian CBs were winning everything in the Air and we were not surrending possession too easily and putting pressure on our defence
  6. I agree quite Obvious I would have thought Heskey is stronger than Crouch
  7. Heskey was a good substitution as we won still had Crouch Available as well
  8. I thought the one from Terry was quite good. Good team selection from Fabio too Dont think Joe Cole will get much of a look in in future matches as Milner played very well and can unlock defences He is a much better footballer than Theo who just seems to have pace
  9. I thought their Goalie was outstanding ours was quite good too
  10. The only explanation I have heard was the Charter was for last season
  11. I agree they were in power for thirteen years and carried out good work but the debts were mainly due to the affect of the Global banking crisis as can be seen from the misfortunes of other countries If the Labour Government had adopted the Policies of the Tories in 2007/2008 we may have been in a similar position to Greece but we are not because they did not seem right at the time So who knows if the Tory Policies are right now?
  12. Yes I agree with your first point so it has turned out to be a PR stunt and not something which can be relied upon. I dont think there is anything wrong in posting something which you disagree with because lots posted on here is bollix anyway
  13. I dont understand how you can post that comment as you have little idea of Labour Policies I suggest that you look at their Website to have a look http://www.labour.org.uk
  14. So what is wrong with cutting fairly in a responsible manner keeping more people in employment and keeping Public Services. You dont have to cut the debt in one swell swoop
  15. I notice you are a new poster on here. If you did not realise the point of the forum is to discuss Saints issues not to slag off other Posters. DD is a very prolific poster who generally posts reasonable content which in this case I fully support. The Charter was just PR and means very little what do you think?
  16. Yes that is my point too. The Lib Dems are not coming out very well in this coalition
  17. I doubt if Cortese caused the Credit Crunch but that does not mean that all bankers know what they are doing but we will have to wait and see what happens but his Honeymoon period is over
  18. I agree but it all leaves a bad taste I would have thought which could have easily be avoided Cortese maybe a banker but that does not mean that he has common sense . If the banking industry had the Credit Crunch may not have happened
  19. I agree I used to work for an IT Company supplying Hardware Software and Services to Government departments dont work there now but I would expect them to be worried where there Sales are going to come from in the future
  20. Some clubs look after their fans better than others Some Companies look after their employees better than others and prosper because of it
  21. The independent Office for Budget Responsibility says today that growth next year would have been higher and unemployment lower with Labour’s responsible, credible plan to halve the deficit over four years. Instead, the Tories’ cuts are unfair to families : cuts to the disability living allowance, cuts to help for the jobless, cuts to tax credits, cutting back free school meals, and cuts to Child Benefit, which they have frozen for the next three years.
  22. I think you may not realise that Vat is not charged on Food Children's Clothes Books Newspapers and Magazines but on much of the rest of our day today activity and was the rise was campaigned against by the Liberal Democrats who have let down most who voted for them in the election just a few weeks ago. I agree that cuts are required but it is the severity of them which concerns me. The cuts will mean loss of jobs not only in the Public Sector but also the private as well leading to less Tax Revenue and possibly more unemployment benefit. The Public Sector has been used to keep the economy going since the recession and without it I hate to think what the situation would be. With regard to the Private Sector growing in the present Global situation with cheap imorts from China and the East and other countries having little slack it is going to be difficult to export. With less money in peoples pockets it is also going to be difficult to sell more in the UK
  23. Dont forget the 2018 World Cup is up for grabs and we dont want football violence to harm our chances
  24. George Osborne says his top priority is cutting the deficit. But in order to get the deficit down, you need to keep economic growth up and you need to keep unemployment down. You don’t get borrowing down by pulling the plug on support for business, throwing people out of work and stifling economic growth. The Chancellor delivered a budget that will throw people out of work, hold back economic growth and damage the public services we all rely on – and increased VAT from 17.5% to 20%, so that higher prices will be paid in the shops by everyone, from pensioners to the unemployed The Tories’ cuts are unfair to families and older people: cuts to the disability living allowance, cuts to help for the jobless, cuts to tax credits, cutting back free school meals, and cuts to Child Benefit, which they have frozen for the next three years. What the country needed was a Budget to support economic growth, protect jobs and cut the deficit fairly. Instead the Tories gave us a reckless Budget that pulls the rug out from under the recovery. And they couldn’t have done it without the support of the Lib Dems, who have let down everyone who voted for them in the election just a few weeks ago.
