  1. In a direct attack on the former Prime Minister, Mr Cameron said his predecessor was not the "most appropriate person" to lead the IMF because he would not admit the UK had a "debt problem". http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/david-cameron/8460370/David-Cameron-blocks-Gordon-Brown-as-head-of-IMF.html You've got to feel sorry for the man that saved the world...
  2. I agree. I think their forray into power will see places like Eastleigh and msny of their south west seats turn blue and many of their northern seats turn red. I think this coalition will in the end turn out for the best.
  3. UKIP are in favour of it, but i'm still voting against it. As it goes the BNP are saying that they are against AV but I think this is just a bluff to try to get leftwingers to vote YES. AV favours the BNP.
  4. Such as shame that you're going to lose. http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2011/apr/18/support-av-collapsing-guardian-icm-poll Pro-AV campaigners had hoped people who wanted change would be more likely to turn out on polling day. Instead, once people are asked how likely they are to vote, the lead for the Nos increases. This is to be expected as Tory voters are the core NO vote and Tory voters are traditionally more liekly to make the effort to go to the polling station. All we need now is some unseasonanlly wet weather to make sure... Also of interest in the article is this: Three-quarters of Conservatives are planning to vote will vote against, as will a small majority of Labour supporters. Only Lib Dem voters are firmly in favour, with more than two-thirds saying they will vote for the change. FPTP is the best system for delivering a majority government so if you're a Labour or Tory voter that would rather have this than horse trading post an election it's the best system. AV does slightly favour Labour at the minute but we've still got constituency changes due later in the parliament which could quite easily mean this slight advantage is cancelled out. In short unless you're a Liberal and/or want to see more coalitions then AV is not desirable.
  5. Milliband wants it, The Liberals want it.... that'll be a NO then. We have the best system there is - ONE MAN ONE VOTE - and that is why 6/10 Austrailians want to ditch AV and go back to the same system as the mother country.
  6. Definite advantage for us. Their players will have been getting hammered.
  7. Thought he did alright at rochdale too. Seemed keen to impress.
  8. Dave - now we're winning 1-0 we've gotta keep a clean sheet and pick up the points.
  9. Daves gonna have a heart attack...
  10. ha ha, never in doubt.
  11. Hudds winning. f/cking hell, we're throwing it away.
  12. calm down dave. chill.
  13. Forte is f/cking uselss.
  14. put £3 on rovers at 8/1. the gods have spoken.
  15. lost at poker so thats an omen.
  16. Connelly on. last throw of the dice. good striker so i fancy him to score.
  17. useless ****ing donkey.
  18. playing a lucky game of poker (double your money) - if i win saints win, if i lose saints lose.
  19. Despite the fact we're wobbling badly if we can just sneak a win we could be 3 points ahead with a game in hand if Charlton do Hudds. Come on.
  20. agree with this.
  21. Disapointed. We were not at the races from the off and lost the game because of that. Lallana should have played from the start and Adkins made a mistake there. Also one of their goals was created after a very poor refereeing decision - ref really bad. In the second half we got going and we did deserve at least a consolation goal. If we don't go up this season I regretably think that NA's approach will have to change or he'll be under serious pressure. Stockport were a better footballing team that us - they were better coached. They got their lead through one touch football - it's glaringly obvious we aren't good enough in this department and that is not acceptable. With the players we have got they should have been coached to play properly. Moan Over.
  22. Just when you think it can't get any worse TSF never ceases to disapoint.
  23. I am currently drinking a coffee out of my Le Tissier mug.
  24. O C D Get help.
