  1. Mark thanks for the reply. Again another interesting read and more than useful. I am not surprised by your description of the meeting in fact the opposite result would have surprised me greatly and it is why i am so vehemently against fan run clubs especially in case the playground bully is inadvertently elected or worse some kind of mob rule. In my experience at similar meetings it is those who say nothing who have the most salient things to say but tend to go unheard if there is not a strong meeting chairman. I sincerely hope your instincts prove to be well founded and we welcome a new owner with a clean slate of senior personnel with no role for any director past or present regardless of subsequent good deeds.
  2. Entirely predictable and still proving the theory. Don't you worry you may be developing an unhealthy obsession. Let me know I may be able to help.
  3. Forgot to mention the theory applies to all punctuation that is repeated more than once at the point it is required. (Sorry to add those last 6 words but I know what a pedant you can be)
  4. Dainty, I bet you're welcome in book shops and newsagents when you go in ripping out pages from their stock that you don't agree with. A post is a persons opinion and if referred to by subsequent posters should not be altered in anyway especially when the subsequent context of the opinion gets lost further down the thread. I am not referring to the rights of an administrator / mod btw.
  5. Embrace it. It's one of only two lies I tell my wife when I say no love you watch the soaps, I really don't mind. Minty seems a bit thick but quite a decent bloke though and open to alternative opinions. Has Daren got the hots for Heather? Perhaps that's your angle, Daren's potential pulling power?
  6. The theory lives on. Nice cut and paste by the way Um. (Note to Admin: Would it be possible to prevent posters to alter previous posts in any way other than their own? Might actually encourage debate or comment instead of convieniently ignoring the issue raised. It's getting beyond a joke!!!!!!!!!!) ;):o:):smt041:smt075
  7. That's OK, I appreciate the clarification. Pity the poster couldn't tell me in a recent exchange of pms because as you know I at least attempt to address mistaken cases of identity whether I'm believed or not. (Cue Um Pahars)
  8. An interesting read and perhaps not surprising it has gone unread or ignored for the usual cheap shots at others. I hope your last sentence is not a false prophecy because Crouch has been quite good at delivering those to us in the past. For the record I don't share your analysis of the situation and if he believed the legends game would raise £600k then IMO that shows poor judgement and therefore perhaps not surprising he may consider pumping cash into a dying swan. Equally your opinion could also be correct if of course you like me are talking purely based on opinion. You are excited by his silence over the past two weeks personally I am simply relieved. Out of interest what was your role at the meeting and the assessment of it's benefits, conclusion or further actions? I would read your reply with interest as you seem to disparage it's purpose or the way it was held at least.
  9. I was told by a respected colleague once that the overuse of exclamation marks in your writings was an indiction of how big a w4nker you were or were dealing with. That was long before the development of emoticons which have made the exclamtion mark redundant - if not the theory.
  10. Yet they keep calling to tell me they want me back.
  11. Stanley = Wilmott Brown Alpine Saint = Billy Mitchell Lady Saint = Heather Daren Wheeler = Nick Cotton
  12. Good Evening Marc, Is the grass getting any greener or did MF discover you were shallow rooted weeds as oppose to hardy perennials? Or perhaps you decided to go back and sit in the trees until the bones of the Pinnacle bid had been picked over? Please let the forum know the story so far from your perspective. Are you grooming your white charger? Regards NC
  13. Hanging is to good for him eh Scally?
  14. No, do you?
  15. Sorry Ponty I didn't want to typecast you. On reflection, and given his love of the 'smack' I think you = Lloyd a.k.a. Craig Charles wishing he was still in Red Dwarf. (that's a name of a space ship as oppose to a suggestion you may be shy and vertically challenged)
  16. Brilliant, much lol!
  17. Nick you are supposed to be promoting unity not more divisive debate! FWIW I wouldn't mind playing with Carla or Maria as long as I got there before Steve Grant.
  18. Not sure his nose matches his tie and on that point does he only own one tie?
  19. Surely we are all more akin to the cast of Corrie: Stanley = Hayley Cropper SaintRobbie = Tyrone Wes Tender = Norris Frank's Cousin = Roy Cropper John Smith = Emily Bishop Docker P = Jack Duckworth MiserableOldGit = Uncle Albert Baj = Dev Weston Saint = Alf Roberts Um Pahars = Jim Mcdonald Steve Grant = Tony the factory owner Nickh = Ashley Fitzhugh Fella = Ken Barlow Dubai Phil = Mike Baldwin Lady Saint = Dierdrie Barlow Toomer = Ena Sharples Trousers = Hilda Ogden ESB = David Platt (about 30 years ago) Lord Duckhunter = Stan Ogden TNT = Audrey Roberts Alpine Saint = Blanche Ponty - Ray Langton Guided Missile - Len Fairclough 70's Mike - Fred The gun is ****ed and loaded.......
  20. Typical conspiracy theorist. Just wants to do that so he can whisper 'behind you'. 'No, really behind you'.
  21. I haven't - is it the New Forest?
  22. Are you sure you're not a journalist on ITN? or NOTW?
  23. Wes your post is indicative of the problem with this club's fanbase. If Mike Osman was CEO I would still buy a Season Ticket the same as if we signed Vincent Pericard on a free and paid him £100k a week. The issue I have with John's post, that you have either missed or don't appreciate, is the double standards he is preaching. In a nutshell he is saying give Crouch a second chance but Lowe had only one? Bit eliteist don't you think? Of course he then back tracks and says he happens to believe Lowe made more than 1 mistake and of course he did, he probably made through his long tenure many mistakes as of course did Crouch through his short tenure. John posts woolly unsubstantianted and sugary nonsense and IMO Lowe was nothing more than a convienient peg to hang his 'I'm not going to buy my two season tickets' and then later comes on and tells us at great length what a wonderful life he has and how successful in his job he is and how revered he is by his clients and how much money he has earned in order to spoil his young family and how he has a new car and so will his wife and not to mention her dream house in the country. (You can tell that took a while for me to get over that post and a while before I could remove the bucket from aside my bed). Still his decision not to renew is fair enough although I suspect the reasoning he gives us is not totally honest. IMO, reading between the lines of which there are many, it's simply a case his priorites have changed so why dress it up to be something it's not as if he has swallowed the book of answers to managerial conundrums. You often accused me of being only a registered member in the past and enjoyed mocking me about waiting for tomorrow's instalment. However, as soon as the forum allowed us to use alternative payment methods I joined eager to mock the mocker. Lets hope Baj and Co can ramp up the server for John's reply tomorrow.
