The logic of a serial abuser, shifting blame onto his victim. Perhaps the common theme is you. You abusing. I find Alpine and especially Nineteen Canteen interesting and quite often agree with them. But even if I didn't, I wouldn't want them gagged, as I am not a dictator.

I have a terrible habit of falsely admitting to serious crimes. Honestly.

Personally I'm not sure we need anyone new at the moment. We've made loads of signings already and I think the players we have should be adequate for the job providing we get the other stuff right, such as tactics, formation, playing as a team, building confidence. Hopefully all that will come.

People who use shopping trolleys in supermarkets! :mad: FFS what do you think your arms are for?

That is remarkable. He should be in Tron.

Learning should be banned. We all know far too much as it is.

Only 'rugby' whatever that is. I'm hoping some kind soul might stick up one of those links so that I can watch it on my pc again.

I saw that, but in their defence I think they were giggling because they had noticed themselves on the big screen. That must be annoying, the only time you've ever got to see yourself and you can't jump up and down, act like a spaz or or pull a moonie.

And without the Clubcard points.

Cheers mate.

So if we agree that the problem with referendums is that the public are too ill informed and ignorant about the relevant issues to vote sensibly, that no matter how many leaflets you post or debates you air on the tv, people will instead latch on to a single issue, which they've probably gleaned from the front page of the Sun. So what do you do about it? Perhaps we should have some sort of issues-knowledge test before you are allowed to cast your vote, to ensure that only those who are well informed about the facts are allowed to voice their opinion. This would lessen the impact of tabloids manipulating the public and ensure that only those who understand what they're voting for get to have a say. This wouldn't be an intelligence test, most of the facts of the matter are usually pretty straight forward, it's just a case of informing yourself, then proving you're informed so that your opinion is valid. We should do this in general elections too.

Three good suggestions. Also "There's only one Alan Pardew" is factually incorrect as a quick Google search will confirm. I actually do agree with your suggestions though.

Was he fat then? It seems to be the default goalie chant no matter what their size, anybody know the origin?

With hindsight I know, but, in planning, wouldn't you have guessed a platform that slopes towards the track is asking for trouble? What next, spare petrol tanks stored in the buffers?

I once created a Blackberry Curve following a bout of nausea. I'll never gorge on mother's crumble again.

Both went to Cambridge actually. I do agree though, they have a certain straight-talking 'man in the street' style, which I prefer.

Consumers are powerful in these circumstances and can initiate change. Just look at the free range egg market which by most standards you'd describe as booming and now outselling battery eggs. Do you still know anybody who buys battery? Leave it to the government (that you most likely didn't even vote for) if you want, but most sensible people like to make their own decisions where they can about how they live their life morally and I don't see why this stops applying when it comes to the purchase of foods, whether grown nationally or internationally.

I can only see the top of her head.

Mixed views, mostly positive. We got one about six months ago and loved it at first, you tend to sink into them which is a nice feeling and it creates a comfortable hole. A few months down the line and it didn't seem to be doing it as much, so we took it off and stuck it on the daughter's bed. She loves it. Now though, the missus says she missus it and wants to get another, deeper, more expensive one. I think I've been shafted.

It's quite a tragic portrait actually, if you look at it. It makes me feel sad.

'Minded' never tried that one.

This is the start of a goal fest. I predict five this evening.

Let's not bring The Guardian into this.

Now that's one I would sign.

I didn't read that "you could be charged with bringing the profession into disrepute if you were seen out drunk" or anything like that in the document, although I did only scan it, so apologies if I missed it. It is common place for profession that you are a member of the professional body, or you can not practise. A section of their you must abide by their code of conduct. You proclaim you HAVE to sign up to this. Well yes, your professional body sets out the rules within which you must practice, they are mandatory, this is usual. Part of those rules will be a code of conduct. I don't see it written that you can't get rat arsed, just the usual patter about acting responsibly and reasonably and not bringing your profession into disrepute, hardly petition worthy, in my opinion.
