Batman

looks better than schalkes kit

I'm aiming for 4:30 at the ground. Have to go home and pick the kids up after work. Might do as you suggest tomorrow for training.

 

Not sure who I should make myself known to this evening, to be honest... I do get some pretty agressive and threatening comments on here from some.

If I was going would buy you a pint. You may be a lunatic in here but a fan all the same lol

The old Bristol City v Coventry classic derby. Can't wait for that one.

 

FFS.

its over 100 miles between the two????

WTF?

I get that a few teams have a deep rivalry and sometimes classed as a derby. that really applies to liverpool/united or say, brighton/palace.

but, WTF???

why would brighton class a game with bournemouth a 'derby'..?

it is 97 miles in distance between the two

it annoys me when people try and say Plymouth v Southampton is some sort of derby. its a 3 hour f-ing drive

Bristol v Plymouth is also NOT a derby. its over 120 miles ffs

as for derbies in the prem..

man city/united

liverpool/everton

cardiff/swansea

spurs/arsenal/chelsea/west ham/fulham/palace in various combinations

sunderland/newcastle

a fair few really

This basically, but unfortunately tha majority of fans just believe that chucking any players in together will work, it wont, they also cant understand the reasoning for having the majority of players, regardless of form, from the big 4, there are reasons here too.

 

Also Adrian you say that we should live in the present a bit... Well... We are, which is why we fail, we have NEVER properly looked to the future as an England set up, we dont value the U20/U21 etc tournaments enough and would rather pick players that are arguably too old, FWIW Id have dropped Lampard by now to give the youngsters a chance.

 

England needs a revolution and we need to go through a transition that the majority of fans wont like, but realistically we arent good enough anyway right now so why not do it ?

 

If you honestly think Lambert is the answer your very deluded and unfortunately with the Saints glasses off would probably not see him as an option.

what is the thinking of rodwell in the last lot of games?

that is what pishes people off. he is always injured, not been that good and when fit, hardly ever plays

if we are going to 'chuck people in' (which is what clearly happened here), then why not someone far more deserving?

players like rodwell, and in the past, shelvey and henderson, could be starters for norwich, play better and never ever get a look in

So if someone said "we've logged you watching horse porn for 32s, and we're going to tell your mum", you'd be okay with that?

Good luck to them. I accept that everything I post online or use on the web remains forever in some form

Saying "you are being monitored when you consciously choose to use sites where you may be monitored, and therefore you should have to tell everyone exactly what you are doing any time you use the internet" is the argument of an imbecile.

its true though. every time you use content of US website, web providers/services, send email. you are being tracked or able to be traced. Which is pretty much every time you use the web.

for that reason, I could not care less if I am monitored on what porn or do (or dont) want to look at. its all monitored anyway.

What it is, is more nanny state politics, which I personally hate. As a responsible private human being, with some experience of living in a world where things weren't micro-managed and where learning how to avoid problems for yourself, rather than wanting someone else to do that for me was an admirable skill. It's also the basis of evolution. If we protect all the weak and stupid we're just diluting the gene pool, and frankly, I quite like having the strong and intelligent around to improve things.

 

As Batman/delldays has, on numerous occasions, argued against nanny state policies, I'm now going to ignore his pointless and endless contrarianism.

if you dont agree, then fine.

if you have such an issue with internet control/monitoring. I suggest you log off and never return as pretty much everything you do is logged, or at best, tracable

Why closer ties with only some and not all?

because some commonwealth nations may not be in our best interests. Take Pakistan, a not very stable state that sponsor terrorism and have been kick out numerous times may not be in our best interests to have free trade/movements with

india, may be a different story. `i dont know the ins and outs but many of the commonwealth nations have strong historical links with us, have very similar cultures and likes. many even have the same head of state etc.

just an opinion, no hidden racist agenda

basically, if you dont think this is such a big deal, considering we are all but monitored anyway. you are 'thick'?

if you are that worried, get off the internet full stop

You mean the white ones?

bit racist?

A list that has no parameters. This will be a specific "opt-in" list that the government will use to point the finger.

If you genuinely can't see why this is wrong then you are much thicker than you come across as.

the minute you login to facebook, skype, anything by microsoft, amazon, twitter, apple. you are being monitored.

so, an in/out for a bit of porn is hardly anything ground breaking is it. I suspect it is recorded when you watch youporn anyway.

Brilliant, lets all put our names on a government watch list, then lets bend over backwards as more and more of the Internet is restricted. Only an utter duckhead would support this.

the moment you log on, you are on the US government watch list. yet, that does not seem to be a problem?

But like I said how will that control stop kids looking at porn?

After all your argument is that by doing this will stop them from looking at it.

As The9 mentioned they did the same with p2p and torrents. But yet they can still get it if they want to.

It does nothing to control what kids can or can't watch.

if people want this, what is your problem. not as if it stops you watching it. just gives though who dont want it, an option

"Affect". And how won't it affect people ? It's a restriction on doing something many people already do perfectly legally and with no problems whatsoever which the law currently states is legal. If they're not changing the laws on non-digital porn as well it's a massive, unjustifiable waste of time and effort, and they're also doing nothing to address the problems they seem to be claiming are caused by porn, because it's still going to be readily available to anyone who wants it in paper form.

its not a restriction. if you want to **** yourself dry to watching porn, nothing is stopping you.

You can do the same thing at the moment by choosing to use parental filters on any browser or by requesting it from your ISP. If it's not illegal to view certain images on a piece of paper, why should it be to look at the same thing on a computer screen ?

so, you can block it at source. if you want to watch porn, you can. so whats your bother?

But they already have a choice now. You have pin on your tv. You have filter on your computer. If you think kids will not find a way around it then you under estimate them. If they want to look at porn they will find a way regardless of what Cameron says.

There is a reason why films/music/everything considerd bad has a warning on it.

This is censorship, nothing more.

what about those who want more control?

if you want to watch porn all day, you can. some want control. it wont effect you at all. cant see why people are bothered

3rd in line to the throne

Or why not just leave it as it is and let people decide themselves?

So what happens to the art websites? What happens if a film has a rape scene will that then get banned? etc etc

It opens a whole can of worms that do not need opening. There are far more important things to be focusing on then this.

why not let people have a choice?

some parents may work different hours and dont want their kids watching porn when they get home from school

why is 'choice' such a bad thing?

Totally different.

Young kids should not be able to watch those things. There is a way to prevent them doing so. It is called parenting?

Your definition would be like saying alcohol is bad therefore you should ban alcohol. Smoking is banned so therefore you should ban smoking. Driving is dangerous therefore we should ban cars.

As I said before it starts as one thing and will spread to something else. How long before it turns into which music you can listen to? Which other websites you can view? Sounds like the making of a regime to me.

why cant people have a choice though. you can opt in or out. you chose? why is that such a bad thing?

Did a little research into all of the adidas Prem teams and their releases of home and away shirts and training kit. We're lagging behind everyone else. We're also the only club with a widely disliked home kit.

jesus christ

Don't we have exactly the same rumour, every, single, year? Yet, every, single, year - he's still here come September?

 

So yeah, he'll still be here in September and probably until he retires.

he wont be sold. that is quite clear

Isn't the being "able to move freely" exactly the sticking point with UKIP and their supporters? "Bloody foreigners taking our jobs" etc...

its not that at all, is it.

Personally, I feel we should have stronger links with many of the commonwealth nations rather than the very strong ties with some of these european nations

and hes already handed in a request to leave i think so they have money

what?
