Spanish is Euro zone so no political gain could be made from that apart from stealing British lawyers jobs Lol...go for it girl

Yep, my clients and business friends can't understand why we are not in freefall. It is a phoney war as present and only after the election will we see where we really are, although like Pompey we know there are massive debts but not sure where they are hidden. House prices have stayed strong (due to lack of supply) and consumers seem to be spending. It is all very complex but I still see massive problems for us around the corner

tHanks Bungle. Interesting how the debate has shifted the scene. My wife agreed that Clegg has come across twice this week as best, but whether he could be trusted when so little is known about him. He is the new kid and fresh, wait until he is on the ropes and then see if his hands are still in his pocket. He was flustered when DC pinned him about the funny money not being paid back , and he was out of his comfort zne. If another moment comes up like that then we will see. I have not seen him work well in PMQ's and so time will tell. Clegg is definately on a roll

No different to people having a go a Sarah Brown or Camerons wife. Do you agree some voters would shy away from Clegg as his wife is foreign, (is she East European she sounded like it)

They are lefties, they like putting up crazy faces and emotions. Modern day graffiti

He hasn't wheeled his wife out, Im not sure whether that is by choice but perhaps as she sounds as though she is not Britsih then he may worry that some would not be so keen on him. Personally it doesnt matter to me, but I do wonder if that may make a difference to a small percentage if they did hear her talking, and so she is given a back seat

Suppressing your real feeling again MB,

Thanks CS, So not 61% to Clegg!!! Must be a different poll.

thats what I thought. Watching David Gold this morning on tv looking so chuffed, it is good for the PL and good for the FL' he said. How can it be good for the FL? I assume if the PL clubs go straight back up the para payments atre then shared with the FL clubs. Still no consolation. Im waiting for Avram to come out and say 'no , it is wrong' as all he wants is a level playing field.

Yep it is Browns only chance of getting the keys to No 10 and so he will cuddle up. Whether the penny will drop with the electorate I dont know. One thing is certain in my mind is that a hung parliament is a disaster, we are going back to the early 1970's all over again and that sent us into freefall. The nation likes to p### about with all its class nonsense, but really we need people who create wealth to be rewarded (not bankers bonusses) not to feel 2nd class citizens. If i have a choice i want the best for my children and want the whole of society to be pulled upwards. Create a successful vibrant economy and you get more tax revenue, keep punishing the richest and they just move quietly away to foreign lands. I know of a few clients who have sold up and are moving elsewhere, their wealth is moving away whch in turn weakens the nation.

What did Brown get?

So self interest rules, that is something people always point at the tories about. Did you not hear Clegg say he was going to cut into the public sector as in wage cap, he didnt say he would stop the NI, and so that is effectively a wage cut for the public sector. All the politicians hide the bad news. Clegg talking about being honest is a nonsense. I wish Cameron had pushed him more about the 2.5m the Liberals took from the criminal and have not paid it back, Clegg was on the run but DC pulled back. Clegg came across well, but standing there with his hand in his pocket was disrespectful to the nation as he was supposed to be trying to convince us he was PM material. He may as well done a high five at the end. Brown tried to be personable but you can see it is not just his way and he grates. That is why he gave Clegg such an easy ride, he knows his only way to power is by coalition and expect a lot more cosying up to Cleggy baby in the next couple of debates. DM's strategy seems to be trying to stay above the dirty politics and looking statesmanlike. Clegg taxing the banks will not help the economy, that is our main income as a nation, without the City where are our earnings comiong from now oil and gas is fast running out?

what a surprise Cameron did well to get 8 with those readers Lol

Apologies to both then

you wish

you wish

Ron does a long throw count as a cross?

Ho seems to not understand the principle of how they got into the position they are in now. Without MM Gaydo etc they would still be in CCC at best. The debts mounted up under MM and he jumped ship. There were reports of 100m debt when MM was selling to Gaydamek. The Pompey fans have lived the dream and after the 2nd cup final appearance I think wahtever happens now they have had a fantastic deal...not for their grandchildren but for fans in the last 10 years.

Yep in the second half that whole end would have been full

As a business owner ,whoever gets in it will cost me more. Brown has at long last admitted his mistake in taking away the regulation of the banks when they came into power. That was one hell of a mistake, and if he thinks owning up to it he will be forgiven, that is another gaff. It's like pressing the nucleur button and then saying , 'oh I got it wrong that time, I'll learn from that mistake' Cameron seems a decent man but I dont like a lot of his people (Hague is the exception) Clegg , well he's a Liberal all open toe sandals, bushy beards and wishy washy Guardian readers. Vince cable is Ok but I saw him make a fundamental error when he was debating finance on Newsnight when talking about the debt crisis. As a nation we need somebody with real conviction and able to grasp the nettle. We have such an underclass of shirkers, chavs and hangers on that in time will get to a tipping point that outnumber the normal decent man in the street.

Clegg as well, what about Mandelson? No doubt he will demand closer relations with Brazil Hung parliament is bad news BTW

They are so ashamed of being Skates they don't want to sit together as a group lol. Spread out make us look more.....or harder to hit. To be fair all of those fans are proper football fans who live and breathe their club.I salute them.

I dont go on rivals sites giving it the big one. Sadly some saints fans do, why I'm not sure. I do hope they dont disappear whe the going gets tough like the Skates do on here.

but he is not a neutral, but a pompey fan reporting on a Man city site. It is amazing how the Skates are appearing on here again. Only Mack Rill was consistant.

i dont know about the contract issue and pre jan, just the little I know about the situation. I hope Antonio understands his future is better served here, but Reading are a division higher and their new manager seems to be getting them moving up.
