Did you hear him before he came into view?

about 3 weeks ago he spoke to a family member who is a friend of his and that time he was going back to Reading as their manager was very impressed with his showing in the JPT (especially the final) I agree the wording of his last interview gives me hope that he may well be persuaded to stay.

for all those who knock Davis, read that and weep. His fellow pros made him the best in the league.Not fans like myself but the people who are up against these players throughout the season.

How did the marathon go and how did your back hold up?

That would do the same to our economy

Dune, that would be catestrophic, 20% would not be very nice but 25% would cripple the nation IMO

Tax is tax,. The point is the duties on fags booze also effect the poor in the same way as Vat. It is a tax that was for luxury goods. Now many have different ideas what luxury is. I think Labour were talking about putting vat on other more essential items, but shelved that recently. Vat is a tax on spending, that should be on non essential items. iam surprised the sanitary items you listed are not exempt but your friends have had 13 years to change that, they have not done so therefore the wealthoier in society should not be blamed for that. Campaign to gt those items changed , id be supportive. The sad fact of life is that if you started everyone with £1000, at the end of the year, some would be in debt others rich.

Isnt it nice that the Tories allow different views to the party leader. Quite refreshing. ps did you like the Elvis impersonator.....Lol

but the same goes for if they buy a packet of fags or a burger. The wealthy have more disposable income as they are wealthier. So they buy a £1m+ house they have to pay more tax (stamp duty)than someone who is buying one sub 500k. That's life, if we have more wealthy people, they are here to spend more and so business prospers, more of the umemployed have the opportunity to get jobs and the whole of society moves upwards. Nobody can avoid paying VAT and so it is a better tax than the normal earnings related tax. I have never resented paying 40% tax, but I remember in the 70's the 98% tax and how that destroyed any people taking risks or working hard. In fact it made the black economy thrive. Get over the fact some people are successful and so in life have a little more, as long as they contribute that is fine by me. it is the Phillip greens of this world who earn billions from our economy and then pay no tax. Sort them out, not the wealth providers who pay into the system.

I think that is what happened initially as we put someone on the post and so we gave that idea up.

i think since the report of their debts this week most football fans are waking upto the nonsense Grant is spouting and getting tired of it. If it was not Pomey we would look at it differently. I have sympathy with the way Luton have been treated but I suspect if you went on a Watford forum they would list a line of their misdemeanors that we didnt realise had happened.

But you can't sacrifice your taller defenders to a post. Frankly sometimes you just have to say @superb effort' and move on. I dont know how many free kicks have been scored against us this season, but i dont see it as a big problem

it still would have gone in

....

Didnt Vantis also have a cloud hanging over them?

I have to hold my habd up and say that NP has done better than I thought he would in the CCC.

I did, but it was the initial injury that did for him, but you are right he did play again , my mistake

Swindon did the double over us so they cant be that bad. Leeds and charlton or Swindon for me

Arsenal have not won a trophy since 2005. I dont say go an try and lose but perhaps play a understrength team. Did we not lose a good player to an injury in the league cup who has yet to play again?

Man u pulled out of the FA cup, Arsenal/Man u/Chelsea have a history of playing weakened teams in the League cup etc etc We are not world beaters and do not have the luxury of not needing to go up. I agree that winning breeds winning but at the same time I believe that the cups became a distraction this season and the FA and League cup (trophies we could not win) it would have been better if we had gone out early. Then we may have gone on our league run a tad sooner and the players would have been a tad fresher.

he mujst be good if he shows you up Mike

I haven't seen the vat reduction for the wealthy. I thought everyone paid 17.5% vat. VAT is a fair tax as if you spend you pay a tax. What it might be is that low earners have a bigger proportion who smoke aqnd drink heavily and so that is where they pay more in vat of their disposable wealth. I dislike vat like anyone else but tax has to be raised. The only policy I like of the libs is the no tax on earnings under 10k a year. I wish we could chose certain ideas and vote on those but is of course impossible.A type of mix and match.

isn't it, the biggest Next in Bournemouth is the crematorium

I tend to feel that is the reason he was chosen

that's not reflected in the 1m transfer fee for Brown, if you read the opening post
