"We're doomed, we're all DOOMED !!"

Conspiracy theory 101 - how do you know that the published result of a General Election bears any resemblance to the actual votes cast ?

Where exactly does that figure come from ? Is it a genuine, provable fact, or another of the random, totally discredited, sh!te statistics that both sides excel in.

Not too difficult - did this as part of building my winter bike up on an old Raleigh frame; fully replaced the brakes and gears, including new combined shifters. The most fiddly bit, which you say you have already done, is indexing the rear derailleur.

Now you've wandered into the realms of fantasy.

"The claim that the UK sends £350 million per week to the EU is wrong." http://www.itv.com/news/2016-04-12/finding-the-facts-the-truth-behind-referendum-claims-on-the-eu-membership-fee/ "EU membership does come at a financial cost. The UK pays more into the EU budget than it gets back. But it's not £350 million a week. The UK’s discount, or rebate, reduces what we would otherwise be liable to pay. In 2015, we paid the EU an estimated £13 billion, or £250 million a week." http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/04/28/eu-referendum-fact-checking-the-big-claims/ "....campaigners all too frequently use the higher figure, despite the fact that it is wrong (and some of those making the claim know this full well). For example, the often heard claim that the UK sends “£350 million per week to the EU” is based on this incorrect measure. The amount that the Treasury remits to Brussels, and thus the direct cost to UK taxpayers, always has the rebate deducted before payment is made. Because of this, the correct figure, taking account of the rebate, should be around £280 million per week (based on 2014 data)." http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/how-much-does-membership-of-the-eu-actually-cost-the-uk-a6972976.html

If we hadn't won @ Spurs.

Hopefully they won't beat Bompey.

My wife is a Man City fan, and she wants a Man Utd win. She hates London teams.

You're not a Tory MP or a Judge are you ?

How much have the bookies pocketed from failed bets with none of the 'big 4' winning ?

I think England have a maimum of 7 european places, normally that would be 4 ECL ( top 4 in the Prem ) and 3 EL ( 1 for 5th and 1 each for the cups ). However, if Liverpool win the EL and do not qualify for the ECL by league position, we switch to 5 EL ( 4 league + Liverpool ), and 2 EL ( FA Cup and 5th in Prem, the League Cup place is forfeited - but the FA Cup place swaps to 6th in the Prem if Man U win ).

I think the FA Cup final is key - as long as Utd win it won't matter if City or Utd finish 5th in the Prem, either will have qualified for the Europa by way of a cup win, and the second EL qualification place, released by the 4th placed team gaining an ECL slot, slips to the 6th placed team. This, I think, caters for consequences of Liverpool winning the Europa League, and thereby going into the ECL - leaving England with 5 ECL and 2 EL qualifiers. IMO, the midweek games need to produce a Man Utd win and a Liverpool draw ( or defeat ). In that situation, provided we beat Palace, I reckon the Premier League table & consequent European places would be; 1) Leics - ECL group stage 2) Spuds - ECL group stage 3) Arse - ECL group stage 4) Man ( Utd or City ) - ECL playoff round 5) Man ( Utd or City ) - EL playoff round 6) Saints - EL 3rd qualifying round 7th or 8th ) L'pool - ECL playoff round 7th or 8th ) WHU - nowhere

Up to 6th.

In which case I shall ask that 'generally' be inserted into my post.

Pelle has been too slow to work out what to do when he gets the ball.

Can we have a drinks break every game ?

Landed awkwardly after making a foul challenge. Diddums.

Karma ?

Consistency has been a problem all season.

It's White Hart Lane.

Tadic a tad greedy there.
