Quite, it's usually the people who rant on about how vital free speech is who are the first to call for people to be shut up if their viewpoint is disliked by them

How old is the PC? Because if it is quite a few years old the HD might have an IDE connector on it and if so that SATA docking station won't be any good because it's for SATA drives only Check if the actual hard drive has one of these (SATA) or one of these (IDE)

I don't know how 'IT literate' you are, but I'd check the VGA cable first to make sure it hasn't fallen out the back orhas come loose. They can be surprisingly erratic if not fully screwed in. Do you get anything at all displayed on the screen? If you can't get it going do you have another computer anywhere in the house? If so, you should be able to plug the hard drive (let's call this HD1) of the troublesome PC in to another PC internally, and making sure you boot off the original hard drive in this other machine (let's call this HD2) (using the boot menu, usually hitting repeatedly Esc or del depending on what you have as soon as machine switches on) you can access HD1 from HD2 (providing the HD1 hasn't gone pop although judging by the symptoms this looks unlikely), as a normal folder Depending on their age hard drives are either connected by SATA or IDE cable, if you try this method you may need to invest in one depending on what sort of connector(s) you have on the PC motherboard

In the last 10-12 years or so most of the England team have been a bunch of spoilt brats, the likes of Rio, Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney etc. tend to underperform for England simply because they know they are guaranteed a starting spot no mater how matter how badly they perform. Maybe it's FA interference or not, but I thought it might change as soon as capello took over but it hasn't. Until it changes England are going to win bugger all, the England team are more of a marketing brand than a football team. Crouch is easily out most potent goalscoring threat, and should be starting every game. One word regarding Heskey, why? SA will be the usual story, we'll have the class to get through the group stages but as soon as we come up against a better team the players will fail to raise their game and we'll go out in the QF/SF if we're lucky

Saints Weekends Bank Holidays

The coverage was on ITV was poor, and it wasn't just because of the bloody adverts. James Allen was a terrible commentator. There again it wasn't that much better on the beeb in the 90s, but it has been superb this season

LOL I have, I did a mate's mock A level psychology paper a couple of years ago he gave me ten minutes of advice, and without any knowledge or background in psychology the paper came back and i got a 'B' Anyway for me at the moment Any musical TV shows that involves people performing in front of a jury comprised of clueless celebs Jeremy Kyle Sean Lock That bloke who sings "GO COMPARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" in the price comparison adverts People who barely get above 30mph on a road where the national speed limit applies(60mph) Chavs Rowlands Castle Council: who don't bother emptying the bins whenever a bank holiday is around, meaning several times a year residents have to go 4 weeks without having their dustbins emptied. People who are disorganised and forgetful, and then try and blame you for something because you didn't remind them to do it.

The usual political voting although hasn't been as bad recently as it was years ago. The political voting argument may be a genuine one, but it's funny it only seems to happen in Eastern Europe and doesn't happen this side of the continent. Ireland, France, Belgium etc don't give us a lot of points. . . . The UK's entry was the worst I've heard in years, the lad performed it ok but the song was instantly forgettable. A bland ballad clumsily stuck on a half arsed disco beat. Truly terrible song. We deserved to be last quite frankly. Still what do I know, my favourite was probably Belarus and that came 24th :wink:

Apparently Prescott is supposed to be hosting Have I Got News for You next week

I think it's what the world cup will be remembered for TBH. I think most people will watch the games with the sound muted. I know a couple of teams wanted them banned but FIFA weren't having any of it
-
believe a club from the Belgian PL(Excelsior??) went bust recently. Also a german team Arminia Bielefeld are on the brink of bankrupcy

Isn't AA earning something ridiculous like 60 grand a week? No wonder he wants to let it drag on and on lol
-
Nor is snooker or golf. Do you call them sports?
-
If true then what will happen is what Chainrai wants to happen, barring HMRC taking them back to court. I would be suprised if they didn't (if they have the means) as they must be more than suspicious about AA's independence from Chainrai to say the least
-
Maybe they happen to be very busy people at the moment

Be a good way of setting a precedent for other football clubs thinking twice about paying their tax

Quite and he tends to say anything that will suit the agenda of PR, whilst not letting 'reality' get in the way

knew a German bloke once called Daniel Druff

It's an old one but still a classic

Anthony Pulis

Mr Ostlund?

LOL bloke from Portsmouth on Who wants to be a millionaire wins £500 Chris Tarrant "You got enough to buy Portsmouth Football Club now"
-
Yep, he chose Qatari club FC Lekhwiyar over Bolton or Blackburn. I wonder why
-
Indeed they are but I'd wouldn't mind betting the PL could pull a few strings behind the scenes.
