The rational part of me thinks it is their right to protest. I don't agree with it at all but if it really floats their boat... The irrational part of my brain wonders where a skinhead with a knife is when you really need one.

Pretty good record against them last season though. Played them home away and neutral and got 2 wins and a draw. There are no Norwich's or Leeds' this season, we should be going all out to win this one. I'd play a team of: Davis FR - Fonte - Seaborne - Harding Puncheon - Chaplow - Hammond - Lallana Rickie - Barnard

Ferrari crossed the line by actually fixing the result. McLaren, Ferrari and BMW Sauber have all in the passed ask drivers to let a team mate past because they're on different strategies or because one driver can't mathematically win the Championship. If Ferrari did it again in Abu Dhabi I wouldn't batter an eyelid. Why? Because now it's just logical, Massa can't win the Championship. Neither can Button, so I'd expect him to move out of Hamilton's way. It's not detracting from the race. You can't go a whole season doing that though, it would just be a farce. Lets say next season Red Bull were clearly the quickest ahead of Ferrari, who had a comfortable gap to McLaren. The Red Bull said we are going to favour Vettel, Ferrari likewise Alonso and McLaren also with Hamilton. Would you turn the TV on at 4am for the Aussie Grand Prix thinking, "OMG I wonder who's going to finish 7th in this one!"?

Wasn't the Beattie and Pahars combination the most succesful strike partnership in the Premier League the season before the cup final? Something like 30 odd goals between them. There is no doubting Brett's work rate was a possitive influence on the team, but he wasn't the sole reason Beattie scored goals. I really couldn't pick between Ormerod and Barnard. Both excellent at this level, but neither has proven themselves higher up.

There's a difference between what Ferrari and Mclaren did. In Hockenheim '08 Hamilton was far ahead of Heikki and would have beaten him easily but for a badly timed safety car which coincided with his pit stop. Kovi was 5th (I think) and was holding up Lewis on a different strategy. If Kovi hadn't let him through Mclaren would have been 5th and 6th instead of 1st and 6th. It's a tactical move, whereas Ferrari just swapped a 1-2 around for 1-2. There have been many instances of team mates letting each other through for a tactical advantage, but few were just the race fixing Ferrari have been guilty of. Montreal '08 Heidfeld lets Kubica through into the lead on a different strategy. Kubica builds a big enough lead, pits and gets a BMW 1-2. If Heidfeld hadn't let him through Kubica would have been about 10th.

If we can keep Michael off the top of the podium, it will be the first full season in his career when he has failed to win a race (although USA was his only win in 2005 and that really doesn't count). Did you know Michael and Villeneurve never shared the podium in 1997?

If a perfectly legal aerodynamic part had been illegal, he wouldn't have won the Championship? I really don't see how that taints his championship. It's not in the same league as race fixing or blatant cheating.

Nothing to get, it's just a naff joke about Windows 98 being a bit crap.

So it's kind of like Windows 98?

Cactus.

Big crunch definitely. Gravity has near infinite range and will eventually drag the whole lot big to where it all started. All human endeavour is, ultimately futile so if you want you might as well post tubgirl, it makes no difference in the end.

Sorry, that should read 1/x

Is x^-1 not just 1/x or have I got that wrong? Haven't done this shizzle in years.

Yeah, I agree it will make us unpopular with some people. It's all a balancing act though I suppose.

Of course they will see it that way, but they will hate us regardless of how we treat terror suspects. Terrorists aren't going to lighten up with we let all our prisoners play hop scotch and eat fairy cakes.

4/x = 7/8 Therefore x = 32/7

Tainted by a perfectly legal aerodynamic inovation?

It's a delicate issue, but I'd say I'm in the 'fight fire with fire' camp on this one. When you dealing with some of the most evil b*stards on the face of the Earth, torture is justified IMO. It's a pretty simple concept which many fail to comprehend, that if you do certain things, you forfeit certain rights. Like prisoners not having the right to vote. If you are involved in the massacre of innocent civilians, you deserve ANYTHING coming your way. If you can't handle that, don't do it. I'm not saying put the thumb screws on anyone with a beard, but if you've got a guy you know knows something...

Hopefully Button gives his team mate the best possible shot at the title by wiping the donkey murdered clean off the track going into turn 1. Either Red Bull for the title (assuming Hamilton doesn't get it). As long as one of them beats Alonso.

Think this was a midweek fixture last year, so I'm guessing a few of you will have stayed there overnight. I've been looking at the Premier Inn for a weekender, which seems to be affordable and pretty much accross the road from the ground. Anyone any experience of it?

They've already played us since the JPT final and we won 3-1. This is like any League 1 game. Not easy, but we should win.

Make them watch every episode ever produced of 'What Katie/Peter did next'. Extreme I know, but I'm an evil b*stard.

Gobern, Jesus I'd forgotten about him.
