  1. Who is talking about date clashes ? There was a long interview in one of the papers this week with KP (Telegraph ?)and he made it clear he physically cannot do it all, and he prefers the money of the IPL.
  2. I expect these were for fitness or personal reasons. The situation with Pietersen is about money - his committments to the IPL.
  3. I dont agree with you that they do, but assuming for one minute you are correct, it must be that they think he puts bums on seats and shifts merchandising. Pietersens problems are not just down to codes he will play; its also related to that discipline hearing he had about Twitter posts. The relationship has been gradually souring for some time.
  4. Indeed.
  5. Yeah, so valuable they called his bluff about the T20, and may even be thinking of dropping him from tests. He's become more trouble than he's worth. England are doing fine without him, great team spirit, great work ethic. They need a Billy Big-Balls like a hole in the head.
  6. Original version of The Hitcher with Rutger Hauer.
  7. Indeed. Did he return it only because it annoyed him personally, or did he return it because it was indicative of the kitchen's performance with paying customers and he felt some "corrective action" was called for ?
  8. Go on, I will react to your trolling. Do give an example.
  9. Yep, looking like the time for England and player to part company is approaching very fast..
  10. Yeah, I definitely am suffering from a bit of Skacelitis...
  11. After such a bright start closing the deal for J-Rod, this transfer window is turning into a bit of a turkey.. Acording to that report, we've hardly started on our shopping list.
  12. Absolutely. Yes, I get worked up and hysterical on the short-term weekly basis during the season, and in the run up to the season if our transfer activity hasnt been exactly sexy, but you cannot argue with the results of the last 3 seasons.
  13. I saw it when it was on TV the first time, and I didnt sleep properly for weeks. Bought it on DVD 6 months ago - still havent had the nerve to watch it. I still think the original Alien film hits all the right buttons.
  14. "Failings" ??? IMO, Cortese hasnt made ANY of significance. Heres another "pigeonhole" - some people are never satisfied. I mean, hes only got us winning football matches
  15. Ooookay, then seeing as Pompey cannot even settle the arrears of the players still signed to them, is he expected to play for love after that ?
  16. Who will be paying him ?
  17. About time. I wonder if there was a final round of pushing from the SFA about re-admitting Rangers though. Seems like everyone is now resigned to taking their financial medicine.......... If Scottish football can wean itself off TV money, maybe English football can do the same, one day.
  18. I dont believe I have expressed my opinion about sectarian songs either way. SuperMikey is a precious tart irresepective of whether such songs are OK or not. I dont think the Fritzl and Hitler jokes are unacceptable. I do however think they demonstrate superbly how the teller is a generalising cliche-making pathetic moron bereft of genuine wit.
  19. Who suggested that then ?
  20. Because the real issue is not wee SuperMikey's poor ickle-wickle sensitive ears and sensitive disposition, its whether the singing of sectarian songs is generally acceptable/to be tolerated or not.
  21. Well, a few lengths of 2x4 and a few sheets of MDF would be more effective. Not sure Man City will be too chuffed about the nail holes in their goal posts though.
  22. OK, so if it doesnt happen at SMS, it doesnt happen, is that what you are saying ? Bizarre. You either think the singing of sectarian songs is wrong, or you think taking offence to it is over-sensitivty.
  23. 1 month to go. Our reserve goalie is TOMMY FORECAST. When is it acceptable to panic ?
  24. I fret that our back-up goalie is STILL Tommy Forecast.
  25. Maybe it was boxes at either end of the box concourse ? I really wonder about you. Is it a aching desire to trowell the sarcasm at every opportunity, or simple, plain stupidity ?
