I think we still have a weakness at CH. Good enough at this level but not good enough to beat the bigger teams atm.

Was that with chips?

Just hopes that he shuts up and lets his football do the talking from now on.

Yes, please don't tell me you own a gun. With your anger issues that would worry me big time.

Not sure getting them in by choice helps your argument Sarnia

Best reason of all.

Yep, use it for news, football gossip and football scores. It is still there and still works!

To be honest I don't listen to much of what he has to say so I wouldn't know if he is right or not. I get sidetracked by all the preening and posing for the cameras.

I remember him being very big at that time. Perhaps not a stellar star as Clarkson but he was very well known - even more so after his remark as The Mail and Sun tried to get him banned from TV. As neither of us know what he thinks about the Clarkson situation against his we cant take that any further, but he only lives a couple of miles down the road from me so next time I see him I will ask him and report back.

No. Why?

I am sure I heard that the Real IRA have come out and claimed that is one of theirs Bearsy.

Its on BBCs teletext right now Batman.

Or even more leftfield with Pancras?

Thank you for the correction. The report I read did wrongly say "influential" gut I guess if they chose favourites that implies a kind of influence.

I guess Brand. like Clarkson is marmite. I don't like him because to me he comes across as a narcissistic 6th form student with a Capn Jack Sparrow fixation.

I just made the point because Hatch said there would be collateral damage and others could lose their jobs too.

He may well have done but has talked extensively about how that incident "cleared his diary" and about how he was banned from live TV.

You know as well as I do that not all terrorist organisations fess up to all attacks. It makes things harder for the investigators for a start. I really don't have time to find examples just to satisfy you and if you don't agree we shall just have to agree to differ.

Apparently we are going for Braga's Eder in the summer.

Not necessarily. Plenty of terrorist organisations don't claim responsibility and like to keep us guessing.

Sadly I think you are wrong. Characters like Clarkson fed on notoriety and his market value has just gone up big time. There are plenty of people who love him for doing things like this (plenty on this site ) and you can bet there are producers sitting around right now thinking about how they can use him on TV. He also has plenty of other jobs on the go. Ross and Russell continued to work after their Andrew Sachs "jape" and probably found their earnings going up as a result. Wonder what Julian Clary thinks of this though. All he did was make an off colour joke about being late to an awards ceremony because he was fisting Norman Lamont and his career nosed dived.

Nice to see you being so supportive UJ but we aren't talking about a 16 year old here. He is supposed to be a grown man who understands that certain actions have consequences. As much as you admire him it would be nice if you accepted that he is totally up his own b*m and doesn't give a flying f*ck about anyone other than himself?

I find it hard to take a man seriously who sits with his legs spread. Are we supposed to be listening to his pearls of wisdom or staring at his package?

He didn't have a view on Toby but says that we should leave the EU. He just pointed to the news on the TV and said, very bad, terrorist several times, though he could have been talking about me I suppose. Yes, it does look like suicide sadly. Bad enough that you feel so out of it that you want to end your own life, but what on earth was going on in his head that made him take a plane load of people with him. What would have happened if the other pilot hadn't left the cockpit? Would the flight have landed as normal and would he have got over that emotion, would he have topped himself later.....ifs and buts. It doesn't sound planned though, just seemed to take the opportunity once he was alone in the cockpit. Awful.
