  1. i wouldnt worry about owning them but you sure were duped in the price you paid...apparently it was said you get the city in with it as well
  2. i dont know your personal position but when Nye Bevan said all those things all those years ago the furtherest thing from his mind I expect was boob jobs and sex changes. It is a nonsense that people are working their butts off then taxed so people can have these things done.Dont give me the mental anxiety stuff, it is a nonsense. The other illnessses that is fine but the cosmetic stuff should have a line put through it period. i agree with BTF that wealth should not be an issue when it comes to health care but there should be boundaries that this takes in
  3. I would not wish for the NHS to go.What percentage of our wages should be taken to pay for the nations healthcare.I think the Yanks see it as the ones who work hard yet again paying for those who can't/won't do anything to help themselves.I can understand that.I myself am happy to pay towards the people who really are vulnerable but the hangers on I dont want to contribute toward. There has to be a balance IMO

    I think that is fairly put.I have laways hated seeing youngplayers crucified on here and backed them.I do though want to put a brake on the over expectation put on the lad.Yes he has done a few good things and has great feet, but whilst the early days of MLT i saw mercurial talent, with AL i see too much expectation on the lad and that will weigh him down.Let him develop yes, but he is not irreplacable and needs to up his game to be the starin the team.Lambert gave me more hope in the first 45mins than AL has ,due to the fact that he actually came up with the goods. Saying all that AL did a lot better than I have seen him do for a long time, that has to be a plus.it did annoy me when he shot instead of passed when he had done all the hard work and he had set up a chance for a better option.His teammates certainly told him what they thought and to be fair he did apologise.

    The sycophant knows no bounds.AL is going to be an alright player. There are many at his age years ahead of him, you only have to look at Wilshire to see that.I hope he does prove me wrong as we will bear the fruits of it.Still a long way from that IMO.I wish him well ps if you dont understand the laws of the game then you should hold your words
  6. Yes he lived with a woman interior designer. My friend did a lot of work for him as an architect.He still would prefer Freddie Lundberg than a woman IMO though

    Greenridge, i like to support all the young players but AL has been given a tag of some kind of new superstar.He has quick feet, he also has added a new aggression and fight to try and tackle (although he couldnt tackle a bag of chips).He is not any good in the air and physicall y still not strong enough.He is over 20. He has improved since last season and that is a bonus but he has a long way to go to reach the pedastal you have put him on. I am behind him but am not blinkered enough to miss his points he needs improving on. If I had a choice between having him or Northamptons number 8 (sorry dont know his name) i would have no hesitation in getting him.He was powerful athletic quick and had a real will to win

    i was typing when I was queueing. lol As for the cuppa I would have been delighted not to buy you one...Did you see AL out of breath as well when he came to take the corner, he looked like me after running up some steps
  9. I dont think that is quite right, it seems to me that is the reverse to the yanks are saying about our NHS.Scaremongering, although i deo understand the concept of trying to waste time until the patient dies. The NHS is brilliant but terribly wasteful.I would like them to just become a little more efficient with our money. In the US when i have been the people are resentful of paying high fees to subsidise the ones who are illegal or not pay into the system. I suggest if we had never had the NHS and the government wanted us to pay more tax to pay for others to get treatment we ourselves would be up in arms.I myself resent people using loopholes to come in from abroad to give birth opr get treatment for free on us,sorry but that is the way I feel
  10. you are right she is amazing.
  11. Reading that, I thought that they have a decent set of fans on there.As dry as a dog t### in the desert.Except the one who talks a bloke looking over his shoulder while s#agg###, probably one of the ones who escape on here from there.
  12. In my opinion that was not written by a person who has never attended a PL game and not had an interest in football until recently.
  13. He disappears when the going gets tough aqnd then pops up when he has something to cling to. The s/t figures must be out there somewhere , his 'friend at the club' told him that they were at 12k and going to be 16k. I had it that they were only touching 9k a week or so ago. Im sure he'd have been back to tell us if his mate was right,or perhaps he is being humble in his victory. lol

    He [played better and did work hard. He is unbelieveably frustrating though.In the first half especially he did some greatstuff beatring players and making a position to pass a killer ball but took a shot instead of the more sensible option.He seems to have practiced his shooting in respect of a bit more power. Overall an improvement but he is not Zidane. If he has decided not to be a big time Charlie but a team memeber then great.I was sitting in the Kingsland corner and when he came to take a corner he was so out of breath he could hardly move across to take it.That was in the first half! He had just made a coupleof runs but it was surprise that a young lad was like that.
  15. So the papers are stirring the admin story but then oges out with quotes like that.
  16. I dont think that AP would have had the chance to watch Holmes in a proper competitive game.I also was hoping he'd get a runout and looked keen.Rasiak actually running was a revelation, he sprinted at 1 time
  17. I dont need to read that to realise it! The Branfoot saga was more than enough.Arrogant man IMO
  18. I am not complaining i was delighted we had such a good turnout. For me it was not having a beer but travelling 30 odd miles parking up and then walkiing to the ground.I was not expecting a queue that stretched back to the burgar vans...perhaps I got in the wrong line.lol
  19. it makes my skin crawl just thinking of him
  20. that is what happened. As soon as the game kicked off, we were told we could go to turnstiles and pay on the gate if we had the right money. Only to go into the Kingsland though.
  21. Am told that the players only get 2 comps now.About time to, I had friends who could give out 10+ a game.If people will only turn up with a freebie they are no good to us anyway
  22. For all who do not realise Phil was my opposing manager in the forum game that they won by scoring 2 goals in the last 3-4 minute3s.He made a switch of players during play, when the game had not stopped.He says he got permission from the linesman for ther sub to take place. The linesman obviously thought it was the player who had gone off the pitch was just going back on , not a substitution that would need a stop in play and the refs permission.(the same as a player coming back on of course) The sub was instramental in the immediate equaliser.As it was a paid for game as in you bought 45 minutes or 90 minutes as a manager your hands were tied to do any more than watch or do a scam like Phil played and it worked. Always be careful of a smiling assasin, lol. My team were cheated on the night of their much deserved win, for them i make the protestatins....and also my ego og course. lol Phil use your influence to get another game , mate.it was fun.
  23. he reminded me of BT but with a footballing brain.Very pleased although he did fade in the 2nd half
  24. give me a chance Iam illiterate in more was than 1.
  25. Lol trying 2 type on a blackberru while queuing and trying not to be seen ignoring the wife
