I've thought all along that Chinnys preconditions of coming back on-board, getting rid of the players, was a bluff; he thought it couldnt be done, but it saved him from looking the bad guy as he took his assets back. But TB has almost managed to call his bluff, so he's parachuted AA in to make TBH stand fast, and thereby keep to Plan A. What I dont get is why the Kanu issue can really be put to one side. If he wins his tribunal (and its hard to see how he wont - its in his contract), they have still got to find that 3m.

I take it you despise the yearly circus that is Formula 1, like I do ?

Lords reform to be abandoned - Are the Lib Dems...

Doesnt have to be publicised; when the LibDems dont get their way they leak it to the press anyway. -

And what about all the stuff the Tories had to drop because of a handful of power-hungry egotistical LibDems throwing the spanner in the works at every turn. The Human Rights Act, or whatever it is called, is suffocating the country. The Armed Forces are starved of personnel and equipement so we can send money to countries with space programmes. No proper debate on membership of the EU. -
Gone very, very, VERY quiet.............. Troubling. Our defence isnt up to the job, imo.

Yes, me too. Victoria looks dirty, Jessica looks like a little girl, albeit with a fabulous sinewy body, if you like that sort of thing. And for all those knocking Rebecca Adlington, Jessica actually has a bit of a beak too.

You may be right, but with Division 1 starting soon, maybe the August 10th date was imposed by the FL for the return of the golden share. Anyway, are they saved yet, or is it looking anything like them being saved ? Really cannot be bothered going thru the posts.

Superb fightback by the hockey boys.

Good post, TDD. Agree completely.

Because I've only just got to my PC after pulling myself off the ceiling at Mo Farrah's win, and dried my eyes after Jessica's medal ceremony, and the football was the topic most currently being discussed at the tip of this thread ? Troll.

And avoid injury. W*nkers.

Football lets the side down - as usual. The Premier League's finest young talent humilliated by S. Korea. I hate football sometimes. Aarron Ramsey's two regular-time penos were SCHEIßE

My wife and I were discussing this evening, why the Austrians dont enter the Spanish Riding School of Vienna with their Lipizzaner horses under the guise of their team, then at least they would win a medal. We concluded that the high society of Vienna is far too snobby to see an institution so entrenched in the history of Imperial Austria-Hungary involved in such a proletarian gathering such as the Olympics. Austrian snobbery makes the worst elements of the British aristocracy seem like chavs.

Just sos we all know what we are dealing with here :

My beloved has just gone past the entire field. I love those thighs...

Once again, since VW seems to be suffering a lack of self-awareness : Sounds like complaint to me. Anyway, you have now answered that last 10-odd comments with "you havent got a clue", even though you dont remember what you post, so I am going to give this a miss from now on..

Come on, love. Follow that moped........

Deary me. Pendleton hits the spot with me.

Once the extended versions of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy were released, you could have argued that it could have been made into 4 or 5 films in terms of conventional film length, though of course that would have lost the synchronisation with the books. I am a bit concerned that the story-telling will get lost in the mass of detail. Jackson did a good job on LOTR (the extended versions run much more smoothly for the non-Tolkien geek), but he needs to be careful not to overdo it. TBH as much as I am looking forward to it, I would much rather he finished off this project and got back to the Dambusters re-make.

Looking good for team and individual golds in horse-mincing...
