So if it's slow like today was then we're in and out, job done. A good cup run, top of the league last few games? Then it's going to cost you to get tickets.

Things are getting curioser and curioser. If people have to pay to park, only to go to the Club shop, or get a ticket then they may well get put off.

Beat me to it, noticed these today when I went to get Reading and Bournemouth tickets. Parking meters/card readers?

This. Precisely. Top Man! Probably far more love for this club than a certain squad of players had for this country during the last month.

I'll have to 'have a chat' with them methinks!

Could you actually tie me down to where I said that I preferred that please. Please read what I said about 'refocussing them'. Sorry if I didn't go the whole way to explain the process to you but I thought it had been laid out for us previously how the procedure should work. I'm postulating the theory that many on here will want to 'sack the lot of them', probably without going down any legally agreed procedures. When those who don't shape up are, finally, shipped out I posed the point that they would, in all probability, claim benefits. Given that point, how long before they are being labelled as 'slobs' and 'benefit cheats'? That is all I asked.

I worked in the NHS for some 6 months and I agree that your SiL is not unique. But this type of person gets forgotten, which is a pity.

Just a thought now. We suddenly have 15,000 'useless' teachers. As some may want on here, we sack them rather than refocus them. We then swell, for however long it takes, the unemployed by some 15,000 who will wish to claim benefits for them and, if not sat at home living off Mum and Dad, their families. Will these 15,000 be entitled to benefits and how long before we get people on here labelling them as slobs?

Yes, a good point which I omitted despite it being in my thoughts. Thanks.

It is not geared that way on purpose and I'm sure that, despite your blinkered attitude, you know that to be the case. Public sector work/employment also attracts those who feel that they can make, or contribute to, a difference. Those that join quickly find they can take three routes, in my opinion. 1. Stay and work hard at the position. 2. Stay, assimilate the easy way (the way we all dislike) I still believe that these are in the minority. 3. Get out and earn a living elsewhere.

That's true and, on the odd occasion, one of the poor buggers does lose it. The trouble is that some of these kids 'know their rights' and push it as hard as they can knowing that even should the school support the teacher then a parent can turn up to get all lairy with said teacher. I noted that, I think it was Thorpe Le Saint (a teacher ?), mentioned teachers getting stale after a few years in the one position. My son's school has just that problem. Not with any old teacher, more the Head Teacher who I have taken issue with over inconsistencies more than once. This Head Teacher is, IMHO, too set in her ways and I almost always come away vowing never to deal with her again. I have now told my son to deal with his bully as soon as they get outside the school gate. I have also told the Head Teacher this will be the way forward, during one of her 'let's look at my different coloured pebbles collection' sessions.

I'd hazard a guess that AP is still working away behind the scenes, even while on holiday. He knows his mission and I reckon he is committed to it.

So, if I read this right, Eastleigh have more depth in their squad than the Skates. Luuverly, he said rubbing his hands together, looks like the CCC is going to be fun this year for the Blue Phew.

The Southerners!!!!!!!!!! That's long gone matey.

I don't think we have many prima donnas in our squad to be fair. Neither do they walk on to the pitch thinking they have the game sewn up.

Thanks for the advice....... Stu.

Sorry mate, we need the official say so from the Ho.

Oh! I thought we were talking about a team of Greats, not whether they were good boys I don't think he ever wore pads and, in some Saints book, they say he'd wear anyone's boots!

No doubt with Big Ron. Terry Paine for consistently good and accurate crosses might be a shoe in also. Would there be room for The Bedlington Terrier?

Inconsistent.

Encroaching, I think. ** EDIT** The commentators have picked up the fact that the ref didn't pick up on the encroaching during the Paraguay penalty.

We wuz robbed!

Racist. Only joking!

I'd hazard a guess that someone wrote that ironic line for Mr RomseyRant. It was funny.

My feelings exactly, more beer getting sold.
