Think what you like. I'm relieved i only lost £10.

After 6 minutes i saw the error of my waya and lumped £30 on Mexico @ 3's. Thank **** it wasn't a draw.

I've got a HND in business and finance.

Just had a ton on France @ EVS. Come on France.

I'd p1ss the easy exams kids have today. I never bothered revising when I did them at school and waltzed through them.

What a stupid thread. I voted they sound great.

School mathematics exams in England have become easier, shallower and less demanding, according to a think tank. Analysis of public maths exam papers taken by 16-year-olds between 1951 and 2006 shows standards have declined markedly, the report for Reform argues. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/7431840.stm

Not at all. In my day qualifications were worth the paper they're written on, but nowadays GCSE A grades are nothing special because any dime bar can get an A in a dumbed down exam.

I've long said that the year on year improvement in GCSE grades has not been due to better teaching, brighter pupils, or Brown throwing money at schools (paid for on the giant credit card), and finally my view has been vindicated - The Exams Are Now Easier! http://search.bbc.co.uk/click/p/2/ds/latest/t/New%2520science%2520GCSEs%2520%2527not%2520tough%2520enough%2527%252c%2520says%2520watchdog/id/17231394116453127672081635929219000/sp/26fe8149e8316056ef2aefa724dab6fa/-/http%253a%252f%252fnews%252ebbc%252eco%252euk%252f1%252fhi%252feducation%252f10319979%252estm

There's nothing wrong with the basic format/set up that a few tweeks won't put right. Essentially it's the same as the old forum and there's very little to do to improve the aesthetic look.

I've done that.

Away at Peterborough.

I'm hoping for a few early Uraguay goals to see if it shuts the trumpet things up.

I wonder who Jacko will be supporting.

Give me a North Korean Commie over and bone idle British Socialist any day of the week.

On a serious note get rid of all the user sh1t that goes horizontally between posts and put it vertically down the left hand side and it'll be a big improvement.

99.9999% is steve's fault. This place reminds me of junior apprentice. ;-)

DBP - are you from the Echo? btw I agree with everything you're saying.

Every cloud has a silver lining.

So what has Cortese been up to then?

Apart from the playground digs (grow up Cortese) i'm happy with any signing, especially when the said signings weaken our opponents.

I thought Reid looked a good player at the back for NZ. Definitely a player who's got a bright future.

The horns weren't as noisy in Cape Town for the Italy v Paraguay match.

It's what they call retro. It's a copy off saints programmes from the 80's.

Germany looked excellent with their build up play and passing. They're the team to beat in my opinion.
