nah, save us all and fucj off to a Rangers message board.

And another post aluded to the Irish famine. Pathetic and **** all to do with SFC.

If anyone needed a reminder why the English game don't need the Old Firm to play football south of the border then this thread is useful: billy boys, GSTQ, pro-IRA, famine, poppies, blah blah. FFS get into the 21st century.

Yep, Ken Bates raping the club with high prices has kept a lid on home gates but they've got a big fanbase.

Fans thinking that their clubs are something special make me laugh. The main driver for players these days is money. If we decided that we really wanted to sign Hooper and made sufficient money available Celtic would sell and Hooper would happily sign on the dotted line. If Celtic don't think we're offering enough they won't sell. Simple as. Now Celtic do have a much bigger fanbase and have won plenty but so what, when the money talks the players walk.

Hemingway I believe.

Would be interesting to see an average distance from other teams in your division though it would probably take ages to put together. Saints must have a well above average distance, much higher than clubs in the Midlands and M62 regions.

Totally agree. Walcott is far from a brainless footballer. What is more brainless is the number of people that just parrot something that Chris Waddle said a few years back when Walcott was struggling for form and fitness. Because he burst on the scene with so much hype and because Sven stupidly took him to the World Cup when he was 16/17 there seems to be no shortage of people waiting to latch on to any poor game. Even when he doesn't play at his best he keeps the opposition on their toes with the threat of his pace but no matter what he almost never loses the ball unless attempting an assist. Even today he scores a great goal and still gets criticised. I do think he lacks the confidence and arrogance of better players like Van Persie which is holding him back and is the result of going to Arsenal too soon and Wenger playing him as a right midfielder.

...apparently we're the featured match. On in 5mins.

SaintAndy666, interesting stuff but we don't need to get as much as recent 2nd place teams, we just need to get one more point or better goal difference than recent 3rd place teams.

To be honest I've gone no problem with players pointing out to refs that they think a card is in order. Should the Saints players show any consideration to a fellow professional (Chambers) in not asking for a red? Chambers didn't show any consideration to another fellow professional (Connelly) when he decided to recklessly lead in with his arm towards his head.

Things is you might be able to get it done quick but if you let a vet do it then at least you don't have to see it up close yourself and know that you did it. Plus you've got the risk of not quite doing it right - that would be a bit of a ****ter. So what's you chosen method if you do go for DIY?

No, you're bang on. Led with his arm, caught Connoly right in the chops. Stick on red.

Yep def a red, Clotterball definitely a **** and Jos definitely totally cynical - brilliant last ditch tackle on Harewood though, awesome defending.

It's clear we're in crisis when is Adkins going to change things round. if this keeps up we'll have blown it and I can't see us getting anything until Lambert is back. What's that? We won? Oh

ps unless you want to give us loads of cash

Has got lots of potential but we contained him fairly easily a few weeks ago. What is his actual goals/assists record? £10m is way too high IMO but then they did pay £35m for Carroll.

You're the one that used to be so in the know lol - why don't you tell us?

Exactly, and the NHS also treat people who're ill from getting ****ed or hurt themselves in dangerous sports - is it any different?

Don't know the area but a good place to start is the FA website. There is a find a club function that will give you club names and contact details for all clubs with a selected distance from your chosen post code. You should be alright with any Charter standard club.

No. HTH.

Most of the cost is the weapons/radar system, amazing piece of kit. They claim that if it was moored in London it could detect an enemy missile/jet at Lands End and shoot it down before it reached Dorset. If you drive along the M27 and look at the top of Portsdown Hill you can see the test radar tower that is identical to the ones on these destroyers.

Don't forget that Top Gear is brill advertising for Clarkson for all his spin-off DVDs, books etc. Think he does pretty well for himself. Used to enjoy it until I realisd it was the same episode over and over again. They should change it up a bit starting with getting rid of the goons who stand around in the background like fawning idiots.

Is that percentage & or just total?

Steve Bruce on the short list? Lol
