    I cant understand why people get their knickers in a twist when they clearly do not have a clue what is going on. Wait until you know what the situation is and if he goes somewhere else, feel free to wet the bed.
  2. Given that Bertrand was written off before he kicked a ball for us it is good to see that this forum is consistent.
  3. His head's in Barclays.
  4. I think you'll find that they did.
  5. No problem. It looks like this thread will run longer than the Pompey Take Over thread!
  6. Tales was better than some of the critics gave it credit for but probably would have made a better single album. Rick Wakeman wasn't happy with playing the whole thing on tour and left after they toured with it. Subsequently they only played one part of it if any on tour. It was followed by Relayer which is one of their best and there output after that was patchy. They still came up with some classics though. Going For The One as said before plus some good stuff when Trevor Rabin joined on guitar in the 80s. 90125 and Talk were really good. They also did an album with an orchestra called Magnification which is worth a listen. If you can pick up Tales cheaply go for it. The first side is probably as good as Close To The Edge and there are some good Yes moments on the rest of it.
  7. Yep, should of been taught proper at school!
  8. We should not have signed Osvaldo.
  9. Once again a Brit is a plucky loser, just as the football the other night. We still seem to lack the killer instinct. Williams seemed beaten but she managed to find another gear at the right moment to do the business. You can coach all day long but I wonder, if the person isn't hard wired in that way, can you coach a "winner" or is it just something that is inborn?
  10. Good record shops are a scarcity anywhere nowdays! My kids have dragged me into the 21st century and make me use Spotify but I sneak onto Amazon and still buy CDs.
  11. Is this something that SFC does? If not should you have written it somewhere else?
  12. I don't have a leader Hypo, dear or otherwise. You post there to. Would you say he was your leader?
  13. A bit early in the year but at Christmas play Run With The Fox. Chris Squire and Alan White's Christmas single. I played Yessongs to death when I was younger. The best from Close To The Edge, Fragile and The Yes Album with the classic line up of Anderson, Bruford, Howe, Squire and Wakeman. Still cant work out what the hell the lyrics were all about but somehow it didn't matter, it all worked!
  14. I would have celebrated the cup final winner the most but my ticket was in the Manure end and I thought it prudent to keep quite.
  15. Me too!
  16. The goal that Boruc let in against the Stoke keeper followed a close second by his rubbish dribble against Arsenal. Sorry Irene.
  17. If you like those two albums Throbber I can recommend Going For The One if you haven't heard it. Not a duff track on the album and two ass kicking rock tracks in the title track and Parallels. That and one of the best Yes tracks ever in Awaken. They could disappear up their own backsides at times but when they were on their game they were immense. Parallels was also written by Squire and has his distinctive bass grumbling away underneath.
  18. Had a medical there yesterday but deal not done and dusted yet. Watch this space I guess.
  19. Trolls have to troll so they will always seek out places to do their trolling. So Confucius say.
  20. pimp my ride
  21. Looked to be on his way to Villa for £9m but apparently we have offered £10m (along with Marseille) according to The Daily Fail.
  22. It was on BBCs newsfeed online so I assumed there would be something on the TV, but nothing. I don't think Jack Bruce's passing made the TV either. There has been a lot on FB. I guess with the massacre in Tunisia it got pushed out of the schedules.
  23. To be fair Hypo I don't think it was ever intended to be a cuddly alternative and anything to do with politics or religion is always going to lead to a fallout. The other site was accused of having no edge. I don't think that is the case now!
  24. Does Brenda chose the Liverpool transfer targets or is it done by a committee?
