I'm not especially sentimental but this story really warmed the cockles of my heart and I defy even the most hardened of Olympic cynics not to feel the same.

Sorry for the confusion - it was just the link to the formal announcement that the new Rangers co will not be part of the SPL which, as has been pointed out, is not really unexpected news. I'd not seen the link elsewhere so popped it up without really putting much thought to the thread context.
Fair point. But the same holds true the other way as well except.....
Checking on my lad's young seagulls account away day mascot packages are up for grabs. The text says...
Away Mascot packages work slightly different to home games although are still a complimentary experience, mascots are...
Not in the least bit surprised. The days of giving anything away for free have long gone. I'm not suggesting the club don't value the supporters but getting people to pay for something trumps nice gestures every time in the commercial world we live in.
What about one that shows efficiency against poorer opposition. I suspect that would be the worst one. Coventry away, Donny away, Barnsley away, Forest away, Palace home & away... 4 points from possible 18. We need to be much better against the poorer teams to be pushing for top spots this...
OK - I checked up on that and there is indeed research on this. What is also interesting however is that this is still a generalisation based on averages and not the same as saying that any black person when compared with a white person of the same age and height will always have a higher bone...
This is nothing to do with race. Certain athletic prowess might have a genetic basis and there is no doubt that part of the abilities of any top sports person to perform at the highest level is down to physical attributes (e.g. Bolt's massive stride length, GP bike riders' sight and reactions...
I've still got my 3S - I was in contract when they brought the 4 out and thought I'd skip the 4S and wait for the 5. That was MONTHS ago and I am still waiting but hopefully not for too much longer!
It's not the "fast" lane. It's an overtaking lane. My view is the opposite - I think the sensible thing to do is queue in all available lanes and zip filter in turn. At the very least it stops all the fat heads who fancy themselves as policemen blocking lanes because they think (a) their way...
At least the BBC don't do that with Family Guy, American Dad or pretty much every other programme on BBC3....
Having said that I think the BBC is great value for money even if in my (albeit limited) experience the organisation has more than it's fair share of fatheads and deadwood.
There was a documentary on a few years ago about people who have fantasy relationships with their cars to the point of 'having sex' with it in as much as you can have sex with an inanimate object. Very weird. There was some bloke who crept out in the middle of the night to do a five knuckle...
erm - what about the bits of Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire etc. on the west side of the Severn? I was born in Worcester, spent a good portion of my youth in Malvern and Welsh I certainly am not!
The actual figure is not 100% clear depending on what you include in the definition of the Holocaust but is generally accepted to be approx. 6 million Jews. Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Holocaust#Victims_and_death_toll has a good collection of the info with references. Don't...
