  1. It matters to the clubs coffers not the fans.
  2. Must have taken ages to sort that down to a suspect, 'does he own a bell?' No 'Does he own a drum?' No it must be him then
  3. yep, our universe may be just one atom in the leg of a chair, which in turn is an atom in the leg of a chair infinitum
  4. yes i realise that, what i was trying to allude to was that fans think that if we get a player to sign for 5 years he is staying for decent amount of time, but really he is for sale from the minute he signs if the right offer comes along. It is a mutually convenient situation for all
  5. I cant see why people put any credence in a 5 or 6 year contract. You can make them 20 year contracts if you like but it means SFA. All it does is give the player bigger wages, the agents bigger commission and the club millions more if they sell in the meantime.The agents can still go around touting the player and will know if there is and how much the sell on clause is.
  6. yeah but they started doing the transfer negotiations 6 years ago
  7. Salman Rushdie survived.Of course the world was a much different place whe the fatwa was served on him, Saddam was keeping a lid on it.
  8. Very sad to hear. Get well soon
  9. I do believe it is valid to think that the people in those communities are better served to root out the mad men. I saw earlier it was mentioned about the IRA, well they were well known in their communities and were protected, the same would be for the extremists in France. Until their own people turn on them this will never go away.
  10. Im sorry but i dont agree. Perhaps the burka ban has something to do with France being targeted
  11. why don't we on here
  12. you are in adreamworld if you don't believe this is coming our way soon. Their plan seems obvious to me, pick away at one nation at a time. It doesn't matter how long it takes them to do it. When I was in the US a few weeks back there was a documentary on, and it focuses on a family who had joined ISIs from Kurdistan. When they arrived the children of the family were around about 5. Now the eldest is about 12 and has been filmed beheading prisoners. He showed no remorse and did it coldly.All part of the radicalisation of the young who will cause some terrible atrocities in time. They are beyond help and the intelligence services can do little to stop such events in part of the world. It is a long term project, the kids are being taught to become terrorists, if the authorities know where those camps are do they or are they taking them out? A moral delemna
  13. Using quotes from Alastair Campbell Lol
  14. The Guardian the quality newspaper we are often told on here. Using quotes from Cher to back up their story on politics lol. http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/jul/14/maybe-the-brits-are-just-having-us-on-the-world-reacts-to-boris-johnson-as-foreign-minister
  15. I have to give you credit Mero, weeding out a few Saints fans from those hundreds of thousands of fans must be time consuming. Good luck with the new site though
  16. thats all well and good but where are the workforce coming from as they will be all kicked out as far as the brexiters are concerned. We havent the British workers to fill all these new jobs The waiting lists to see a consultantant or a hospital appointment is going to be get worse once the nasty immigrants have been kicked out. I assume you expect to cherry pick which ones goes and which stays lol
  17. I suspect the offer was a derisory 10-15k a week lol. If he has that type of attitude Im not sure that he is suited to us. IMO we want players who a keen to join not just for mad wages
  18. Man u to win league with Liverpool 3rd. Relegated Boro, Burnley, Hull. Bournemouth to finish above Saints 15th These predictions obviously will change if we strengthen the squad measurably. A thin squad will be effected by the Europa league
  19. I feel we have to give time to see if Puel is the right man. I don't follow European football and so did not know of him before he was linked to Saints. I do have concerns that the one player that really was exciting has left as well as a real powerhouse in midfield. We have brought Redmond in who has obvious talent but is he on the same level as players who have left? Puel will bring in a couple of French players I suspect and hopefully they will have more steel than the ones that joined Newcastle
  20. I voted remain and am still sore at the result but we should move on. It is getting sad that we are looking for ways around the result. The way the Italian banks and others connected to them are struggling perhaps we shoud press article 50 now and cut ourselves adrift. I saw an article where the EU have overspent billions and we have to contribute to make the shortfall, if the banks fail and we are not out by thenwe will still have to pick up some of that bill.It will be galling to leave , pay for the bailout and not have the benefits after euroe recovers
  21. Fair point, but Hislop has the worst case of short man syndrome there is,
  22. Jordan Ibe as well, Bournemouth are building a very good young English squad. Eddie Howe is a smart and impressive English manager.
  23. Apparently I have won 10000 dollars lol
  24. OldNick

    Chilcot

    I doubt he will mention the Iraq war lol
