  1. Posh 4 points ahead with a better GD. I'd quite like a Bompey victory in that one too.
  2. Bompey drop more points at home. That's all I'd have asked for today if I'm honnest. Now I'm a Notts County fan for the next 26 hours.
  3. Qualifying: 1. Vettel 2. Hammy 3. Webber 4. Button 5. Alonso
  4. Our record this season is far better when Barnard is in the side. We've only lost once, at Walsall, when he has started under Adkins. He's more likely to find the net than Lambert at the moment too. Aside from that purple patch, I really haven't been convinced by Guly.
  5. Les Gets is pretty good IMO. A wide variety of runs and there are a couple of other resorts within a short bus ride. If you are complete beginners, I'd recommend Norway or Sweden where the snow is generally better and the slopes smaller and more gentle. Bulgaria is good for beginners too and is much cheaper than Scandinavia, but I've never been so I can't really comment on it. So in my life I've been to Geilo, Sol, Levi, Zel am Zee, Zermatt, Killington, Banff, Big White, Vail, Beaver Creek, Les Gets, Val D'Isere, Tignes, Cormayeur and Les Deux Alpes. If you want more info on any of them in particular, just ask. Only place I would NOT recommend is Zermatt. Lifts were an absolute pain in the tits.
  6. So by the time we play our next game, we will have 3 games in hand over Posh, Bompey, Udders and Dons. This is getting a bit silly.
  7. Overall I'd say Hamilton. He has the raw pace and overtaking nouse, where as Button is the more strategic and 'race smart'.
  8. I vote we get relelgated, then we can finish 3rd in League 2 and still get automatic promotion.
  9. You also need a porn number. This is your bank account number, followed by the sort code, followed by your credit card expiry date, followed by the 3 digit security code.
  10. Nothing like an assistant manager bigging up his nearest rivals to try and put more pressure on them. I'm fairly sure he doesn't mean it.
  11. I can. It was weird.
  12. FA Cup under Dudd and Gormless. That was the one where Rasiak scored a penalty on the 46th rebound.
  13. Lighthouse

    Death

    Strangely, I think if I were in the same situation it would be the other way around. If I lost a close friend or family member I'd be gutted. I think (and I hope to heck I never get the chance to find out) I'd probably feel quite hollow and numb at the loss of an unborn baby. I think it's because I wouldn't know them as a person. It would basically be like a person I'd never seen or met dying.
  14. Liking the 2% cut in corporation tax personally and the 1p a litre cut in fuel duty, even if that does only save me 30p a week.
  15. Actually, I'd have said it is best suited to the Muppet Show The thread, not the TV show.
  16. I'm not sure I get this 'not winning our games in hand argument.' Games are games. Tonight and Walsall were no different to any other game, just because our rivals weren't playing. If you're going to argue that, then you have to say we've won 6 games in a row which weren't "in hand".
  17. Anyone know what time he was on the train? The train I was on at 1815 was full of Saints fans who managed a healthy chorus of "Swing Lowe", amongst a lot of other things. Didn't realise Rupert was (possibly) on the train though.
  18. Temple Meads. I'm aware that I can't really f**k around after the final whistle but there shouldn't be a problem. Changes at Paddy for either London Bridge or Waterloo East, I'm going with the latter.
  19. I'm getting the train from Bristol at half 3. Only £29 return. Much better option if you can get to the station by then.
  20. Plane get diverted then? So far this year I've done: Latvia Estonia New York Val D'Isere Les Deux Alpes Planning to go to: Belgium Italy Missed out on: Milan Ukraine Caribbean Dubai
  21. Ahh Bernie. He's like the old grandpa who sits in the corner telling people he invented rollerskates. Just smile, nod and don't ask him how he's feeling.
  22. So, the Formula 1 circus is back on the road and the curtain raiser is back to it's traditional home at the Albert Park circuit. Personally I hope we never go back to Bahrain, not only because the government murdered it's own civilians, but also because that place is boring as feck. I'm struggling to remember one interesting incident in about 5 years of racing at that place. In Melbourne, Jenson Button faces the very unlikely task of making it a hat trick in Australia, following a rain effected race last year and Brawn GP's fairy tale debut in 2009. Ferrari and Red Bull were the unsurprising pace setters in pre-season, whilst Mclaren had issues with reliability and set-up. Team principle Martin Whitmarsh was on the BBC earlier this week claiming they hoped the MP4-26 would be up to a second quicker come kick off in Oz. One more point of note, we have a new Brit to cheer on. Scotish driver Paul Di Resta comes with a promising CV having beaten reigning F1 champion Vettel in the 2006 formula 3 series. He also beat drivers such as Kobayashi, Nakajima, Buemi and Grosjean and is the current DTM champ. As much as I'd love Button to lead home a British 1-2-3, I can't really see beyond a red victory, be it Bull or just paint. It would be nice to see Webber win his home race as I doubt the 34 year old will have that many more chances.
  23. Ah, now that would distract me too you see. I could spend all day sat in Starbucks and every time a nice bit of crumpet walked past the window, I'd completely lose my chain of thought. What with that and Saints Web, I'd never get anything done.
  24. I had my lucky dump this morning, does that still count? I can't really do it during the game as I'm going to be there and the poor unfortunate souls sat next to me would have been upset/dead.
