  1. its amazing that this super striker who scores slightly less than 1 in 2 or 1 in 3.5 games (depending on which distorted stat you want) could not be sold or gien away in a firesale. All those PL CCC La Liga scouts etc must have had the summer off. He is overrated by a percentage of a L1 clubs fanbase, sadly the people who need to rate him dont as he is still here. Saga go and prove us wrong, after all he was going to score fun in L1
  2. Weston Im sorry I dont take that as being correct.There is no way the administrator would not get paid.It is an impossibility as they get access to the funds raised.Clapham will be able to clarify it exactly but IMO there is no way administrators are ever left unpaid.
  3. why dont they do the book signing pre match at Pompey they might then fill the ground
  4. im not a fan of Saga and you have got it right there.I will admit he did chase the odd lost cause but it was interesting how AP gve a criticism of how Lambert was not supported. I do hope we have notmissed the boat in ridding ourselves of him and we can get someone in
  5. he had pace that frightened the oppostion, he had enthusiasm and he showed he had some trickery.Yes he got caught offside, but this is L1 and so we dont need Ronaldo, he may well be another threat to add to the side and perhaps will help free up some space for lambert who is getting little help from his other strike partner.
  6. i dont llike to know there is trouble, but if you go to another city and start giving it the big one, Im sorry you get what you deserve. The majority of Yeovil fans would have gone to the game and not been invovled in this the same with Saints fans. lets keep this in perspective.Im sure similar incidents happen in every town most weekends where lads who big themselves up get a punch.

    the spend on buildings is a bit misleading is it not? I was under the impression the private sector build them and then charge massive fees in repayments.Therefore the cost of the NHS is really a bit shrouded because the liabilites are spread over a longterm.That if added to the actual cost to us would be even greater. As I sya the NHS should never not be there for all entitled people but it should not be out of control.
  8. good luck and have a great day, as you realise it is all downhill from there.I have been married for 26years by the way
  9. can I quickly clear up that a 6x is a beer not some weird tryst

    and so the doubling of the cost of the NHS has gone where? if we are getting all these savings in real terms the cost and increase in spending is more! It gets worse.
  11. Can I ask are muslims allowed to join or is it only for all others? This type of thing is more likely to make them more militant than not.If muslims feel margianalised by the wider populaion they may well move to safety in numbers and join in with their friends. Iam right wing in a lot of things but this seems a odd group. Surely we pay taxes for us to be defended and so it is already sorted surely?
  12. bringing up SCW is all part of our past and causes divisions. Personally I doubt his appointment made a jot of difference to our ability to sign players. It is very interesting that in the year HR was with us, he all of a sudden had a terrible inability tosign anyone.Could it have been he wasnt given a free reign like he was at other clubs abd the incentives he got in buying were not there under a more rigid run system we had. Yes now in hindsight we should have done a Pompey had a team of all stars costing us millions had a cup win and then gone to the wall. It happened anyway.
  13. is it 150 behind their score ie 289?

    yep all those people in jobs that are paid for by new national debt. No wealth creating of course to pay for it. No wonder we have a trade balance that makes me wince. Give them more money so we can import more and get us deeper in the mire. How it would mean less taxes lord knows, the more the nation borrows the more taxes we pay.If only it was so easy.

    They've been doing that for the last 10 years.

    Well that is a stupid practice. There is no incentive to save if you are penalised the following year. The natural instinct is to spend up to budget so you dont have less the next year.I remeber when a schoolkid the staff rushing around to spend any budget left so they didnt have less the following year.Even as a 10 year old that seemed ridiculous.
  17. LM a hero to me until he walked. Since then has not been my favourite.I do agree he spent a good time here and so that should be commended.Istill didnt like him going though.

    The question you put was obvious, of course you need staff, but IMO there are too many. Lots of businesses in the private sector are shedding jobs due to having to.The companies staff take on extra tasks and accept that is what is needed.Only the sucurity of the government increasing the budgets allows for the excess in not only the NHS but the civil service etc. Id love to know that whatever i did Id get an index linked budget and some to play around with and no doubt would end up being overstaffed as well.
  19. that post was following 1 where I said Lambert needed another forward alongside to help.Saga is just too hit and miss.When did he last score?

    Oh yes lets just order another computer system that bleeds more money. BTF is about to start the job and so obviously knows more, but it doesnt get over the fact that there must be overstaffing.

    so without going into your personal details going to be on less than a normal nurse.Are you going to do a job that at present 2 nurses are doing?

    Of course you have to have these people but if we used the same overstaffing in the whole of the economy everything would come to halt as we would go bust. We are back to the usual problem with state run industries, overstaffing and inefficiency. It would be impossible to run the NHS down to the last penny saved, but surely you must see that with so much resource thrown at it we as a nation will not be able to afford it.Im sure if you were honest with yourself you could see that there are many jobs that could be absorbed and cuts made.

    I dont know if you are trying to be patronising but it seems so. I think you are over playing how much having a chain of people is saving. i dont expect a nurse to buy the bandages and have examples in the past where inexperienced negotiators have done and then overpaid. Now I believe the tenders go up on the internet for people to bid on. That is an improvement as it makes competition. It is easy to brush over overstaffing by trying to use the 'nurse out of work, or wasting her valuable time' card. There seems to me to be such a chain of command that we have a lot of maangers who are not needed. Something has to give, we cannot go on funding the NHS to the extent it is at present.Choices have to be made and whether it is frontline services or management go , that difficult decision will be made.I myself would like to see more management go but the NHS has grown to such an animal it is going to be difficult whatever route is taken.The pension liability alone is frightening.
  24. why are they excuses, they are as it is at this moment.I myself can see some real problems in the goalscoring department.He needs to address that quickly.I cant see natural goals scorers there and so he needs to be backed in getting at least 1 in.

    And how many people does thatr process go through to order the bandages? May i ask also the clincians keep their private work, can you give me an example? So they work extra hours , does that mean on overtime?
