    why is it very wealthy people never have enough-GREED?????

    The more money he earns, the more he can spend in the economy (buying cars, products, hiring people). If they don't spend it, it is saved in bank accounts (or other investments) which in turn earns then banks/investment companies money that helps our pensions etc. If "rich" people DID stop as...

    BMI- is it bollocks?

    Don't think he is, just googled him and he's 94kg and 1.96m tall so bmi=24.7 so OK, not even overweight (25), let alone obese (30)

    BMI- is it bollocks?

    It is, and always has been a bit blunt due to it's simplicity. That said, it's a "reasonable" guide but not to be taken too literally, especially if you are particularly muscular. Many well built chaps are overweight (according to BMI) but if you're in the obese range then you probably need to...

    Re Barnes - the bloke who sits behind me...

    We'll all judge a player over a game and season, however 5 minutes before the start they ALL get a clean sheet in my book. I want them all to play well each game, those who actually want a player they "dislike" to have a bad game to simply reinforce their own prejudice are, quite simply...

    Which of our current squad...

    Dicker a while back a year or two ago, Bridcutt is now on the Gus wavelength as has been reported. So, yes, he said that about Bridcutt too :)

    Which of our current squad...

    Dicker? Gus has said he is one player who fully understands what he is trying to achieve.

    Season Ticket Replacement

    I suggest the OP puts up a couple of pics of the smartcard (both sides). If it looks physically undamaged, I can understand his grievances. If it looks tatty/scratched/etc. then I suspect the club are taking the approach that it has not been looked after. Either that or he went in and...

    Vicente....

    I remember that well, the best Albion non-goal I've ever seen.

    Spanish Dave---Cheat? [Now with added poll]

    Of course, that always the way with football. Ball against hand "accidentally" is NOT a penalty if it's our defender that does it but DEFO a penalty if theirs does. A "light" foul/contact is a penalty if it's our forward and play-acting/diving if it's theirs etc. and so on.

    Man City Fans (some) refuse to pay £62 for this Sundays match at the Emirates v Arsenal

    But it works both ways. Clubs have "effectively" said, 'are you prepared to pay extra to have better players' and the answer is 'yes'. The only way to change things is to vote with your feet. What I don't quite understand is why ticket prices rise so much upon entering the Premier League as...

    You ought to tell the club this, I bet they haven't thought to do so.......

    Parking in Coldean and Moulescoomb

    Some residents will cash in by renting/selling their visitors permit. More pressure on the other existing transport options (esp with more seats due). Are there plans for more/new P&R?

    Leonardo Ulloa

    I think this was answered earlier in the thread. Spain (and I recall, Portugal) have agreements with some South American countries regarding immigration/citizenship). We (and most of the rest of Europe) don't, of course! Once dual citizen of Spain has been granted (i.e. effectively has EU...

    Ipswich Town v BHA - Score Predictor

    You've not see the table then recently! They're 8 points clear of relegation zone and beating us would put them only ONE point behind us.

    6 points off the play-offs that is all

    Well, we're closer to the bottom 6 than the top 6.

    Watford & Newcastle ticket sales?

    Maybe it takes a few hours to go live on site, however in the interim it sold via the phone/club so never made it to the site?

    What Is Wrong With NSC Today ?

    Charlie Austin for £4M

    BBC site mentions the "chase" for Austin and how a few premiership clubs may be trying to get him (and Glenn Murray for that matter) in the January transfer window. I don't think we stand a chance if PL clubs are after him. I suspect they'll both be PL bound (and Palace will drop down as their...

    Mo Farah - Not in top 3 - Are we still fundamentally a racist nation

    I think the only racism here is coming from wallyback. But there will always be those with chips on their shoulders and he/she is definitely one of them.
