I think Shaw is brilliant but he isw injury prone

are we not making a bit much of this? its a friggin lads match.

Happy birthday Mick. As for the goal,how the move kept going with Cassels involved makes it even more amazing
-
It takes all types of temperament in a Team. Osvaldo celebrates one of our goals as much as anybody,if he was such a drama queen he would not care.

I doubt their fans are too fussed about the game, it has little relevance.
-
The directors only want adulation,as soon as the going gets tough they will react and do whatever to appease to keep their hero status. Watch the purse strings being released a bit in Jan. They will point to the 30% ratio to justify it.

Just read the BBC article re Barkers sacking and it seems Crawley have not scored for 7games.

would you know what it feels like being the clever/attractive kid, I was told you and Rebecca Adlington were twins
-
apparently Bradbury was cornered by some Pompey fans and made him take his shirt off to prove he didnt have the tattoo.

that sounds like Pompey story for the last five years

Will the Southend player who was sent off still get his Cup Final winners medal?

If there was no oil revenue coming in I doubt they'd get a vote in favour. If only we couldn't dig a pipeline into it and start pumping it into England. Are they 100%sure that all the oil is Scottish.? Apparently independence will give each Scot £600 a year more. That is if their figures are correct. Of course politicians never gild the lily -
Whilst I agree MP might look to move to a bigger club, I'm not sure he has finished what he has started here and may like to see it through. I suspect whether his family are near and settled will be a major factor. I would expect Spanish clubs could be a bigger draw .

It's got to be Hope Powell,

Wherever you go you are likely to bump into Spurs fans, it is unusual to do the same with Saints fans.in fact you get posts on here saying that someone saw a saints shirt in Ibiza etc, if the same posts were on Spurs sites there would be pages of them. Spurs are a massive club, just below the uTds etc but far bigger than us. We are a provincial club that has potential to be bigger than now, but it will depend on consistent success and a much bigger stadium. We could repopen this debate in 20years time

go to Sky sports and the golf and you will see features on him, he is the one with the leaf picker and carrying the dustbin bag. If you don't have luck there, go to the Forum football match and search for losing football manager and loads of pics of him will come up

No keeper is exempt from mistakes, I have seen all our. Keepers made tragic errors, even Shilton. Boruc is a PL keeper and a good one at that
-
'it is in all interests they do so' I don't think it matters to Sellars if the access is open, in fact I suspect it will cost them money to do so as their insurance would be higher,due to the risk of fans claiming injury on their land

The high nett worth must be starting to get edgy, whilst the crowds are staying admirably high (14k) yesterday, although they are watching cup finals every time, the thought that they may well be staying in this league will send shivers down the spine. The likely hood of the crowds keeping to that level are unlikely next season. Promotion I assume is a must to keep in line for the financial planning. They still could get to the play off places if they go on a decent run, a new manager would be needed for that to happen though

Global warming really is happening... (well, duh!)

Many a true word said in jest ,me thinks -

OldNick replied to 1976_Child's topic in The Lounge
it was not about satisfaction it is about the preaching and if those same people were trying to do their bit. The governments can do some things but if people are not interested then it is impossible to police. We live in a soft society where hardship cannot be tolerated by the masses. If it was a case that we had to use our computers /phones / cars for only a couple of hours a week for pleasure there would be meltdown. I suspect that to turn around the damage we are told is happening that would be the very minimum we need to do. We want our cake and eat it -
that is a nonsense. Our defence and team is far more organised and so the keeper is under less pressure. Boruc is a super keeper but cannot make these massive cock ups and not have the microscope put on him. The last 2away games he has cost us dear. He will make it up as the season goes on

Oh, and OldNick, since no one has replied: I do fly, on occasion, when needed for work and holiday. I also usually drive to work, although I also occasionally walk as well. If that makes me a hypocrite, I won't argue the point. However, I'd say the truth (or lack thereof) of ACC, is not affected by my personal choices. The fact that I don't contribute to Oxfam, does not prove children are not starving in Africa, but merely that I'm a tit. Further, I find litter disgusting, and support fines for littering, rather than just a plea that anyone who objects to litter stop and those that don't keep on. Does that help? Hokie, I appreciate your honest reply. I desperately hope global warming is man made and that we can reverse it, as I cherish my grand-daughters future. I have read the passionate posts by the people who believe it is man made, but then am surprised that those same people have not changed their lives and habits. I assume the lack of replies would suggest that there are many warning us of foreboding but I when the push comes to shove they don't have the real belief and character to follow their convictions. It is easy to sit and preach and then do nothing to change their own lives, but then expect the government to do something instead. I see the generation coming through talking the big game but when push comes to shove they don't do anything. I was at school during the power strikes, the constant threat of 'oil will run out in 20 years' paper and sugar shortages, and still turn the light out when I leave the room. The young now, drive everywhere ,expect cheap air travel and buy throw away furniture clothes etc. it is all mealy mouthed, let others take the pain action. Ps I don't think you are a tit,but very honest and realise your shortcomings
