  1. I wouldnt, invites pressure, better to keep going, make them commit Refs useless
  2. Its always been a booking, dont really know why, slowing the game ? To stop the undershirt messages ? Still, he was reacting to someone in the crowd, some moron I expect
  3. Pellè very quiet today, just doesnt hold the ball up well enough. GOAL, great finish by Tadic, pellè shouldve hit the target though
  4. Lets hope we get some windy weather so you can afford a few more pairs TBH Im not a fan of these years kit, it looks and obviously is cheap, yet they still charge the earth for it
  5. Well there is no blame for them following the money, I just dispair that agencies are able to claim that sort of money for their service (they'll be getting something ontop of that wage too). Which means it is pretty obvious why the NHS is struggling in most services and losing money here there and everywhere. Its a long term fix aswell, all the time you depend on agencies/contractors you struggle to keep your own staff due to the wages elsewhere. This over-reliance is dangerous IMO. Its all well and good looking at your revenue and claiming cutting staff numbers helps cut that budget by removing commitments (holiday/sick etc) but whats the point if you are paying over the odds for an agency that innevitably you will be committed to anyway ? Nb - Im not an accountant
  6. This was my thinking And if true, shows just why the NHS is struggling. The more I hear of businesses being run by accountants the more I despair, they seem to just be interested in the bottom line of certain budgets and completely oblivious to anything based in reality
  7. Yup, exactly the same in my chosen profession. I am litterally on the edge of staying and going. I have never been a person obsessed with money, I earn a good living, live in a nice house in Fair Oak and have a healthy balance between work and social life. The problem is the same contractors that I am told I have to use are now offering me double my salary (before the overtime they cream in) to make the jump. Like you say, the flip side is apparantly less benefits and guarantees, except they get the same holidays, car schemes etc amd I have been told by senior management (when complaining we need to gain control back) that contractors are here to stay and we are too reliant. Madness
  8. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2902821/Killers-betray-Islam-Muslims-driven-wilfully-perverted-misinterpretation-faith-says-academic.html Not that I read the mail
  9. Lets not forget the exclusive that never was (it was) when they all should just be practising their autoqueing
  10. Lets be honest its no worse then the drum you were banging in the summer on the main board. He hasnt said anything that bad. Its a forum, different opinions everywhere
  11. I dont know, I dont watch the german news. Saying that what is happening in France is getting too much coverage is frankly rediculous. What is happening in the UK that is remotely compareable in terms of importance or shock ?
  12. From now on I think we should label players from F-A+ With Ronaldo being A+
  13. Sums up my point nicely An excellent piece
  14. Im not knocking pellè his all round play is excellent. He snatches too much though, a bit more composure and he really would be excellent
  15. Thankfully you didnt say he was excellent, we'd of had Noodles getting his 2005 FA approved player quality chart, MLG would of prayed for things to stop and brett would've made the sarnies
  16. Thank you pap, much more errudite then I could muster Freedom of expression is vitally important, but at the same time people need to know the boundries and be responsible, IMO
  17. The amount of chances Pellè had he should already have 15, Im pretty confident a more composed striker, of which Dzeko is, would have put many of them away.
  18. 1. If they are coming up with exclusives instead of just reporting I personally see that as a better service. 2. Everyone knows prince andrew, most news services will use the obvious name to report. This is basically you getting into a huff over the BBC isnt it ?
  19. I agree But do you think it was adviseable ?
  20. Good work goats
  21. Its still an exclusive Im not entirely sure I understand your waffling here viking
  22. I completely agree, but unfortunately it is the current world we live in
  23. Would you say after the danish incident comicalising the prophet mohamed was adviseable ?
  24. It depends how you look, anything can be defended behind the shield that is free speech. And dont get me wrong that is a good thing. We have to defend our rights to that. We have to ensure that we do not now break in the face of it. But there is a line within which it goes into the realms of poking for a reason. As i said before, calling the playground bully a fat idiot is free speech, but I wouldnt say it is necessarily adviseable and after the retaliation cannot be considered unlikely. THAT DOESNT mean I am in anyway being anti free speech, defending the actions of the extremists or considering that the journalist is to blame. It was an abhorant atrocity carried out by those determined to change the way we live
  25. Is it acceptable ? No Is it surprising due to the threats and previous retaliation due to making fun of the prophet mohamed ? No Its really not dofficult to comprehend
