I saw The Bluetones years ago. It was appalling. I only went to the concert as Mansun were supporting, but they didn't turn up so it was a double washout. -
Brilliant. A genuine laugh out loud moment. Just glad I didn't have a mouthful of coffee when I read it. Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using Tapatalk 2

I met my other half on plenty of fish. We've been together nearly a year now and I couldn't be happier. I was sceptical of the whole internet dating thing at first, but I'm glad I did it. There are some seriously shallow people on there though, and some proper pervs, but that's only to be expected I suppose. Anyway, it worked for me but I can understand it isn't everyones cup of tea.

Just listened to the press conference from Leeds. Something is amiss. GFH have said they have taken over the best available club and have been inspired by the passion of the fans. How can this possibly be? Everyone knows the biggest and bestest available club with the bestest fans in the world is on the south coast. Unbelievable short sightedness from GFH Capital I feel

Oh dear Mr Vettel might not be champion after all.

Looks pretty clear cut to me. I guess we'll see what the FIA are made of in this instance. I really don't envy their position here -
Are we finally in a position to keep our youngsters?

And you know he will. He's very good at it in fairness, although I am too scared to contemplate his techniques -
What!?! No Liverbirds?

As a sufferer, I can say that it isn't something you get into, it is not a state of mind, it is not a cope out or any of the other stigmas attached to it. It is a medical condition caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain. This is caused itself by numerous things in life that require the body to create chemicals to counter low moods, distress, emotional pain etc. Everybody copes differently and there is no standard of how a person reacts to events or occurrences. It is unique to every individual. In my opinion, right or wrong, I'm sure one of you will tell me either way, suicide is not cowardly. For some it is the only way to make the pain stop. You really have to be at your lowest ebb to consider it clearly enough to go through with it. Admittedly, there are a large number who threaten it for attention, which can make sympathy and empathy hard to feel, however, if you can actually go through with ending your life and leave even the good things in it behind, something must have been horrendously upsetting or emotionally painful. Without being that person, it is impossible to know what they are going through or how they are feeling. Mental health issues are real, as I said previously, I can attest to this. I will be taking anti-depressants for the rest of my life to combat my low ebb. Fortunately for me, I haven't been low enough to follow through with considerations, but they have been there. Also, through my own personal experience, I can say that the stigmas that go with being treated for mental illness make it very difficult to ask for help or even admit that there is a problem. I'll climb down off my soap box now as I should be working rather than ranting

************ infraction alert!!!!!!!!!!! ***********

Are infractions a right of passage on here? -
I think I agree with Bearsy's sentiment. A couple of Barton, Viera or Keane types would certainly shake things up on the pitch and make us less easy to beat. Adkins really does need an enforcer type player to lead rather than a flair player like Lallana, as gifted as he is

How many tactical mistakes is Adkins allowed? (Part 2)

"It's obvious that NA needs help with the defence and hiring an experienced strong coach is an absolute must - not sacking the manager who until 10 weeks ago was lauded as one of the best in the game by many on here" Not to mention several members of the media and other managers prior to the start of the season -
A strange hybrid of Essex and Hampshire accents, but with strong Essex dialect. Sounds really odd at times

But a pleasant one imo

Maybe because nobody else can be arsed to deal with the ball ache involved. We've all seen what a tangled mess it is after all

We're Winchester division 2 in 2nd season. We just missed out on promotion last season by a couple of points but are ready to have a huge push this time around. We're a good bunch, mixture of youth and experience. We train on Tuesday's at Eversley Park in Kingsworthy on our home pitch and social club. Kicks off at 6:45 if you're interested in seeing what we're all about. Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using Tapatalk 2

I run a team in the Winchester and District League. We are always on the lookout for new players and are currently looking for a striker primarily. I'm not sure if this would be too far out of your way or not, but if you're interested, let me know.

Ah, the rule of 3.

It may be a little bit too far out for you, but I'm chairman of the Worthies Sports and Social Club Football Club in the Winchester and District League. We are looking for players at the moment. If this is of any interest, let me know

I reckon kasper Schmeical would be worth a punt. Would push Davis for a start and fits our young and hungry philosophy

I don't think TB could, but is expect a much more thorough FPPT by the FL and possibly see them blocking it due to the history of his previous tenures. Especially as he has publicly confessed he'd be "reluctant" to do it in "the interim". If they don't block him, it'll just degenerate into further farce.

It's still there, although it is puzzling why more hasn't been made of it. Maybe Sky are just bored of the whole sorry affair
