  1. The last house in rented just outside Maidstone didn't have a strong enough signal to get online regularly. There are plenty of people who live around the village I live in currently who cant get a decent connection. There have been plenty of reports about how poor rural internet connections are. Go check it out if you don't believe me.
  2. Having worked in newspaper circulation for 30 years ( until 2000) I find this very sad news. It sounds like the beginning of the end for printed newspapers. Not everyone can get access to the internet or wants their newspaper online. Sales seem to have dropped away drastically though and I guess it makes sense financially. When I use the train I still see more people reading newspapers or magazines than I do looking at laptops or tablets.
  3. The Tories are doing their best to do away with the sparsely populated bit by building more and more houses on arable land.
  4. Give it another couple of years and people will be flocking here for their holidays. The trouble is that the coastline will be several miles inland.
  5. What do you think guys? Should we throw him to the junior doctors?

    But there is a big difference to playing to Premiership standard and giving away several poor goals. We pay these guys a lot of money to be able to come on and do a job. If they cant we need to find those who can. If you aim to be competitive there is no point in having a quality first team if the back up players aren't up to it.
  8. Is it his fault he earned a ton of money? Perhaps the person who signed him and offered him the contract in the first place should take the blame?
  9. So we are happy with a white collar strike but not with the blue collar strikes? I think any union that calls a strike will think it justified even if some of us don't.
  10. I seem to remember they fell out after a game we lost in which Big Mac said to KK that he had "cheated out there today." We went on to finish runners up after KK left so we didn't do too badly. I also remember KK saying he left so that Big Mac could afford to buy Shilton?

    No one is saying that Yoshi hasn't been a good servant to the club, as was Frannie Benali. The problem is that if we are aspiring to be a "best of the rest" club then we cant afford to have players in the team who give away goals cheaply. Unfortunately Yoshi gets blamed continuously because he makes many unforced errors. It was really good to see him score and have a decent game the other day but he really does need to sharpen up consistently. I really don't think many, if any, other Prem sides would come in for him if he was up for sale right now.
  13. I cant have been 40 years ago because that is when we won the cup. My Dad, who NEVER phoned me at work, called me to tell me the news. Still find it hard to believe it actually happened!
  14. I would like to see our election process overhauled. It is unrepresentative of the electorate and archaic.

    Ron has nailed it. He needs to work on his concentration and awareness. He has got a good attitude but attitude is one thing, application another.

  22. It is appalling Hutch, and as a father of three daughters I worry about my girls. But rape is rape and I have just been reading about what happened to Milly Dowler which is also sickening. No one is pretending it isn't happening, but at the same time we shouldn't be more concerned about rape if it is carried out by Muslims or Asians. We should be concerned about all rape in equal measure shouldn't we?
  23. Not going to apologise for having a pop at him for giving away soft goals just because he had a good game the other day. And players shouldn't be happy about being reserves.
  24. But these are American voters we are talking about.
