That match is why I love this game!

Don't know of any particular car rental companies that are different from the others but the regular ones will be Budget, Europcar, Avis, Hertz etc. For camping type rentals there's Maui, Britz, Apollo or Kea are the main ones. Recommended places to visit en-route to Melbourne are: SA McLaren Vale (Wine Region) Victor Harbour to Goolwa (South coast of the Fleurieu Peninsula and takes in Port Elliot & Middleton) Coorong National Park Robe (beautiful coastal get-away town) Naracoorte (just a regular country town but is just north of the Coonawarra wine region and has historic caves to visit) Penola (not much in the town itself but is in the Coonawarra wine region) VIC Warnambool (recommended as a stop, not because there's anything worth seeing there but it's a big enough town to have all the facilities you need and it's at the beginning of the Great Ocean Rd) Apollo Bay (worth stopping there) Wye Beach Hotel (this pub is worth a stop for lunch/dinner and a drink!) Lorne (also worth stopping there although it's only 1 hour from Apollo Bay) What you can/cant do will depend on how many days you intend to take doing the trip. Don't be fooled by how close it all looks on a map - if you want to take in the Grampians and the GORd you'll spend about 14/15 hours of driving time I reckon. Hope this helps! Cheers.

To be honest, why don't the UK simply ignore the ruling and deport him anyway. There are other countries that regularly ignore the European or international law for their own benefit and just get a token slap on the wrist.

Here's a pic of the proposed redeveloped statium. There'll be a pedestrian footbridge for easier access across the Torrens river from the Station & Casino straight to the back of the Donald Bradman (South) stand.

To be fair, it needed it. The hill will remain as will the scoreboard. They redeveloped the main members stand a few years back which I thought they did tastefully, keeping some of the old wall structure, and now it's the turn of the Donald Brandman and Chappell stands. There's no guarantee they'll be finished in time for the ashes as the greedy f***ers working on the site want a 25% pay increase over 3 years and the unions are threatening to strike over it......over 8% pay increase per year FFS!. Believe me the new stands will look good and will be a lot better than the ridiculous Chappell stand with the stupid tent roof. Went to the test for the 2010 ashes on the Saturday (was a stinking 39'C) & had a great day watching Cook, Peitersen & Trott dominate all day! Orange (or anyone else for that matter), I live in South Australia, so if you have any questions about Adelaide, feel to PM me.

Who's going to win the race to the bottom - Evra or Suarez Can't stand Suarez but Evra such a petulant little p71ck. I thought the Suarez affair was meant to be behind him.

All time worst Premier League referee - Uriah Rennie.

Forgot Villa & Wigan play each other on the last day. I think it'll be between them going into the final day and wouldn't eb surprised if Wigan are 3 points behind with a GD advantage (i.e. needing to beat Villa to stay up). Either way I couldn't care who goes down as long as it's not us and as they are playing each other on the final day, as long as we're at least a point above them both going into the last game!

Would have taken a draw before the game but it was frustrating to watch at times. Have to say was surprisingly impressed with Swansea, never really gave them credit before but they looked a very good outfit, just missing a final ball. Thought the midfield 3 were excellent barring the opening 220 mins, particularly Davis, seemed to be everywhere. Boruc played well and Fox did surprising well to recover from the opening 20 mins where Dryer tore him to peices.

Was only born a few days before the cup win so have none of the reall emotional association with it that the folk that remember that great day but nevertheless there's no way I'd delete it from our records. People remember those that win competitions not those that merely play in Europe.

You'd go for the p1ss as well?
-
Thankyou PFC, here's to making my season!
-
Disappointed after being infront but would have probably taken a draw before the game. Thought Cork was excellent, my m.o.m. especially in the first half.
-
Just 12 minutes before the final whistle Oldham were drawing and skates were winning and looking like the great escape was on.........as it has been said on here before, it's hope that kills you!
-
Pompey lose, Oldham win. 2 games left, 5 points adrift of safety. Looks like they'll be in League 2 with the -10

Can someone explain how their claim to be the biggest community club in England works. Is it based on 1. It is the community club with the largest turnover in England 2. The percentage that the fans own is the largest of any club owned/part owned by a community of fans 3. It is the community club with the largest average crowd in England 4. It is the largest amount any community of fans has paid for a share of the club 5. It is the largest family ever to part own a club or 6. None of the above, it's just another myth.
-
Such a momentous occasion with PFC being ....... sorry, had been confused but the factless carp spouted by the pimlpey few..... about to be football's biggest and bestest community owned club that the BBC are honouring it on their main Sports page with ...................... f-all, zip, nada, nout, nothing. No big headline none, not even one of the tiniest headlines hidden away anywhere. Big sporting news! There's a little link on the Football page but that's even below the job status of Danny Wilson.

Factless Allen!

This is the biggest myth of the Thatcher era. Statistically manufacturing declined quicker in the 11 years before and the 11 years after her tenure than it did during the 11 years of her tenure, but no matter how many reputable papers report on it, with the public it's in one ear out the other.

oops, apologies, didn't see that thread.
