Of course he could. The point tho is that you stated that the one who isn't had choices. I'm saying that is unknown and you are wrong to make such a statement.

That's a long winded way of saying what I said you said but with you not saying what I said you said. Sorry, I but this talking in riddles is catching.

You don't know that. None of us know what was happening when the guy was killed or in the build up to it. This may have been a frenzied defence to an attack, or he may have chased the bloke and killed him whilst in no danger. If the latter applies he made a choice, and the wrong one at that. If it's the former then it's a different matter.

It's not about being positive or negative. It's about commercial reality.

It's how I understood it. So what did you mean.

Problem is all the common sense has been sucked out of you. Initially you sparked an interesting debate. Since then you've just posted ********.

So you now suggest that there could be plans after promotion to division two. Of all the crap you have posted on this thread that's up there.

Ffs, you're like an old beaten boxer who keeps getting up despite having the **** kicked out of him every time he does. Plucky but stupid. I'm not gonna indulge you by making the points that have been made very well above.

Mate, we all love a trier but the more you go on the more stupid you are making yourself look. We don't need a bigger stadium and nobody has said we are getting one. Just give it a rest.

Got them both. Swift key is very impressive. Cheers.

You'll get a bmw for that but it will have done a million miles. If you just want a reliable and efficient car I would look at a skoda Octavia, vw golf or passatt. Peugot 406/7 are a lot of car for the money and go on forever. As a wildcard don't dismiss an alfa 156. Loaded with kit and the 2.4 engine is quick and efficient. I've owned one for years and never had a problem.

Cheers for that Joe, it's very good.

I said that I would stay out of this but saintfancam makes a point which can't be ignored. Commenting on something from an objective and commercial perspective does not make the commentor narrow minded or negative. Myself, and the others who think that this discussion is premature, have consistently said the same thing. I would love to see us playing to 40k crowds. However, for now and the forseable future there appears no realistic prospect of achieving those crowds consistently. In view of that to expand the ground makes no commercial sense. If we get back in the prem, look like staying there, and have a demand for 40k fans then expansion makes sense. Until then it doesn't. Someone mentioned that wolves are expanding this summer so perhaps we should follow suit. They have consolidated their position in the prem so, subject to demand for tickets, it makes sense that they do that. People also have short memories. Lowe built us a stadium. We then had little money for investment in players, and then nearly went bust. Cortese, like lowe, comes from a business background. Unlike lowe I think he is a decent businessman. No businessman with a brain would prejudice their business by building a stadium that isn't needed. People, please take off the blinkers and be a bit more sensible. That really is my last word on the matter.

I'm not so sure. Kids stealing for drug money won't be deterred.

Part of me feels the same. The problem though is that burglars will go in much more heavy handed if they are aware that the home owners are able to lash out without fear of reprisal.

That's a strange response. Murder is a wholly different crime to manslaughter. Murder requires intent, well malice aforethought if you want to be precise, whereas manslaughter doesn't. It is possible to stab someone to death, and avoid a murder conviction. It is the intent to kill that is the difference between the two crimes. That could apply, and often does, even when there is no claim of defence. Self defence is a different issue. You need to show that the act of defence is reasonable and linked to the threat. So if someone is in no obvious physical danger, goes off and gets a weapon and then attacks someone, again when there is no obvious physical danger, they are not using self defence. If they were in danger one then looks at the degree of force, ie if you stab the ****er to death when he's down and out you've gone too far. Juries can be liberal in how they interpret intent and/or the circumstances of self defence. I don't know enough of the facts of this case to give a view. Personally one part of me thinks that we should be able to do what we like to burglars without fear of conviction. Another part of me is worried that is likely to mean burglars being more physical, ie getting in there first.

Can anyone suggest a decent keyboard for android, preferably with t9 input but not essential. I've got swype but find it buggy. I mostly use the chinese keyboard (in english tho) but it has a habit of putting capital letters in random places. Any ideas appreciated.

Just give it a rest please. Turkish and kraken have highlighted the facts. I can't be bothered to repeat them and/or rewrite them so they are easier to comprehend. I too am out of this pointless debate.

Where do people think that the extra ten thousand or so fans will come from? There is not the expanding catchment area that people talk of. Chelsea and man utd have been mentioned in this thread. London is a massive city and manchester has loads of towns and cities go greater manchester. There fanbase is almost limitless. We have sea to the south of us, winchester to the north, pompey to the east and bournemouth to the west. In between we have a few small towns and a load of ponies.
