darn., can't delete post....

Can you tell me exactly WHAT is being sold off? i.e. some examples from the proposals of things being sold off etc.? In an effort to know a little more about he proposals, I'm curious to know.

Certain newspapers, the BBC(!) and politicians like that woman on QT. Of course there is right wing "propaganda" but I don't see that on this issue (actually it could be argued that the lack of it is poor propaganda/PR!). You could see it on QT last week, the coalition pair were (to an extent)...

As I understand it, they can open UP TO 49%, not 49% is straight allocated to the private sector. Are these private sector people doing NHS work in the hospitals or purely private work? Regardless, I didn't say it didn't involve privatisation but it wasn't all about privatisation. It about...

Much of what you say is very true. It IS a complicated issue that is only trivialised by the media (and some politicians) point scoring over it. I don't pretend to understand it and nor should I without some thought put into it. I don't think the politicians should be trying to explain it via...

I fear you have completely misinterpreted the new plans. It's exactly people in your situation where safeguards have been put in place. What exactly is it about the plans that makes you think you'll be adversely affected? That aside, has ANYONE here read ANY of the new plans? Or is everyone...

We'll get 30,750 every week if we calculate the crowd the Arsenal way :D Personally, I think we'll be very lucky if we ever exceed 30k. There will always be some lost to segregation (say 250) and club promo/gift/school tickets that never take all their allocation (say another 250) leaving 250...

If you take this approach, I think you need an outfield player in the squad who can play in goal. Southampton & Leeds may have such a person and we don't? Goalies rarely get injured, yes but they sometimes do get sent off. Besides, you can only use 3 subs so that "5th" man is unlikely to ever...

There are more than 2 :rolleyes: options. Cab - OK not cheap Bus Other Tubes Boris-Bike! Walk - doable in less than an hour and free!

I agree, it's all a bit hit and miss.

Although it APPEARS like they've handled it badly, we've only got what the media tell us to go on. The truth may be close or far away from that. Yes, they've approached many managers, isn't this the sensible thing to do? When a company needs to fill a vacancy they interview a number of...

LOL :D I've got the mental image of him chasing a pigeon around the pitch whilst everyone else is concentrating on the game :D :D

What about gold (as in the beak) and black? I prefer the old days where you wear the blue/white home and away and change only if there's a colour clash. Our colours are blue/white yet we play just as many games in the change strip......

I don't think we can question his commitment to the game though, he's a professional. If anything, he'll want a corker of a game scoring loads of goals in the hope Kenny will go "wow, he's good, let's buy him". It's his boyhood/home club, of course he may not celebrate, completely...

Who are "Southampton Rovers"??

Ooooohs don't tell us anything :D What is happening?

My guess is that, earlier/start of season, TB said we're not going overboard buying players as we may not go up. Now we're in the 2nd half the season and near the top/playoffs, let get some class loans in if we go up we can spend, if not, nothing lost (well, compared to spending millions and...

A government warning said that anyone travelling in icy conditions should take a shovel, blankets, sleeping bag, extra clothing (including hat, scarf and gloves), 24 hour supply of food and drink, de-icer, rock salt, torch, tow rope, petrol can, first aid kit and jump leads. I looked like a...

Even if there is an exchange process in place, don't think that all the no shows will be on offer. Many won't put their ticket up for exchange. Just be quicker on the uptake here. I've managed to get tickets a couple of times here just being alert and a little bit of luck. Put a wanted ad up...

Tried it a few times today to give it the benefit of the doubt. Conclusion, it's horrific. The rot has set in (from the main front page and previous "redesigns") and I'm gradually weaning myself off to better designed websites. A pity, as for a while the BBC website was one of the best as far...
