Jesus, this is just plain f**king mental. How have they got the bare-faced cheek to do this ? WTF does this say about the FL when they allow this ? Its just going to allow another round of shafting - its as plain as the nose on my face that Chinny hasnt got the slightest interest in the football. I'll say it again - just what does the DFCSBs have on the Football league ?

You're a bell-end. As VFTT points out, that was a segment going through UK pop history, using imagery representative of the time, and the 60s obviously drew upon hippies, flower-power and CND. How the f**k does that translate to w*nking over Joan Ruddock and/or Monsignor Bruce Kent* (* delete as applicable) ??? So the CND symbol should be deleted from history according to you. You been reading Orwell recently ???

And a big "f**k off" to all the businesses getting only 2p in the pound..............

I consider myself to be conservative with a small "c" and center-Right largely, but do have a bit of a social conscience one one hand but a strong opinion about defence and law-and-order on the other side. And I perceived no left-wing bias whatsoever about the opening ceremony. I thought a couple of things were a bit cheesy (I cringed at the Bond clip and the waving Churchill statue), but overall I was left feeling proud at being British and reckon that if a group of Aliens are on their way to earth in their flying saucer, they would have got a fantastic overview of our great nation if they picked up that transmission.

Did you bother reading the post I quoted ? VFTT indicated some people view everything with suspicion and hate. Lets face it, you could ahve predicted those on the site that would not like the opening ceremony. Just because I get a bit carried away about Saints on match day does not make me a whinger - it just means I care deeply about something which I cannot influence, does not make me a whack-job (well, no more than the rest of you on here), and does not make me an attention-seeker - it just makes me the sites equivalent of a hockey Mom.

Dune has finally provided unequivocal evidence that he is f**king bonkers.

Spot on. Britian seems to have more than its fair share of whingers, whack-jobs and attention-seekers.

It was obvious because no-one in their right mind would pull off that salute in this day-and-age in such a public forum. But have you never heard of the saying "not believing your eyes" ? It took a couple of seconds for a couple of adults to say "it mus be a funny wave, he wouldnt do that", and the kids obviously needed telling that. I pity idiots like you who make stupid one-dimensional responses without thinking just so you can get a weak dig in.

Much as I find this disgraceful (these players have families to support) and the self-satisfaction of the Mob Chief nauseating, I am relative sanguine about this. Chinny isnt expecting his bluff to be called; for the club to get rid of all the high wage earners. Even if the club manages it, I still dont see him continuing to run this club for long. He just wants his money back. So there will be no expensive signings, the club will run at break even (which means a level of Austerity that George Osbourne can only think about whilst w*nking - they will be exploiting every PFC sympathetic tw*t on the island when it comes to match day voluntary staffing), and they will get relegated. Once the PP final installment is made, the DFCSBs are finished.

Wondering why they bothered, and what all that f**king arguing was about. Drawing with UAE - what an achievement.

I see the footballers are honouríng us with their sense of sporting spirit and winning desire, yet again...........

I specifically named him because he has gone on-record about it. Look how England football do better away from Wembley.

Starting to get a bit uncomfortable. 3 weeks to go, spine of team (GK, CB, CM) is still for me a bit suspect. Are Davis K., Fonte and Schneiderlin/Davis S. strong enough for this level ? I have my doubts.

Cavendish is exceptionally p*ssed at the Australians today. Does seem a bit un-Olympics like, to decide that if you cannot win you are going to prevent the best cyclist in the field winnig as well.

Yes, it is not going well. (its Adlington, btw)

Geoffrey Hughes has died. Top bloke. Loved everything he appeared in.

There has been plenty of talk of Team GB grabbing a record haul of medals in this Olympics; personally I fear todays road race may be a sign of things to come - too much expectation, plenty of prospects on paper, too little delivery. There have been plenty of rumblings in the press that our medal prospects are uncomfortable with favourite tags and so much attention at home, for example Ben Ainslie.

Verbal is contrary and sneering for the sake of it. Amazing how I get hammered for commenting on a down side of a Saints performance or run of form and get accused of seeking negativity, knowing full well my opinion wont be well-received but needing the attention anyway, but sad acts like Verbal get away with doing exactly the same thing.

Well, at least anything not British. And I bet he would have been more tolerant of the participation of Kim-Jong-Il than Her Maj.

Talk about being hoisted on your own petard. Seriously laughing at your pomposity.

What were you saying about childish insults, hypocrite ?

A comment for all of you criticising Her Maj for looking miserable. Maybe she is exhausted. Its been a big last 6 months for her. She is working as hard as ever and she is rapidly approaching her 90's, FFS. My wife and I think she looks a lot more frail than she did last summer. I'd like to see how many of you are still bouncing around to 6 appointments a day and 14 hour working days at that age.

Your predilection for sneering and dismissing, in a desperate need to feel superior, deserves all the ridicule it gets.

Yes, he was obviously only waving. Yes, the Nazi salute was right-handed, but so f**king what ? That's sophistry, it looked like a repetitive Nazi salute, and in my predominantly Austrian household the first impression was "WTF???". All I did was comment on the initial reaction. Some of you are self-important pompous arses whose lives are given meaning by correcting the slightest ambiguities in others posts. And this is not directed just at you, I see a few others have also felt the need to state the bleedin' obvious as well.
