  1. I think he is a scumbag however the wearing of a poppy is a personal show of rememberance and no-one should feel obligated or forced to wear one. Why give him such media attention, he wouldnt get the level of attention for not wearing a pink ribbon or other displays of charity. The poppy represent remberance of the fallen but it is also a charity (The British Legion). To wear one means you are donating to the charity to support veterans and current serving members of the Armed Forces, as well as the upkeep of Gardens Of Rememberance ect. I hope every team that displays it on their kit is dontating something to the Legion or it is a meaningless show of conformity. We discussed the ITV presenters decision not to wear on today in the office. We are all serving members of the Armed Forces and couldnt give a fuck if she wears one or not (she does by the way, just not on TV). It is a personal decsion. This wee cunt it only after the attention and the trouble he can create.
  2. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-34708640 FIFA is pretty much dead at this point. If they look hard enough they wont find a single World Cup that wasnt awarded due to back hand dealings and bribes.
  3. This refs taking the piss now. Surely he's at the wind up with Clarks yellow
  4. Brilliant. Played with class and never became frustrated when we couldn't find the opening goal quickly. QOTS lost the heid second half and only made it easier. Over 4.5 came in at 5/1. Over 5.5 at 10/1. All round good day at the office and some classy teckers thrown in as well!!
  5. The consolation is my over 5.5 just came in a 10/1
  6. This ref is having a shocker. Nothing important but he is missing easy calls
  7. Really growing into this game and it's starting to click. Give it 4 or 5 games and this team will really have gelled and then we could be watching something special. Wes gives me the fear though.
  8. Cant believe that our subs are running drills at half time and not just knocking the ball around for laugh
  9. Considering Waghorn and Travenier only signed less and 48 hours ago and we are playing like this, this team could be special.
  10. Who are these pretenders... wheres the long ball tactics? Loving this patient passing mentality, building from the back, pressing when not in possession... breath of fresh air.
  11. After 14 years regular sevice and no plans to end it anytime soon I find the whole Armed Forces Day irrelevant really. I would rather the government stop cutting all our manpower, units, support infrastructure whilst handing cash hand over fist to defence contractors (who provide a piss poor service for outrageous amounts of cash) whilst increasing our operational tempo to unsustainable levels. The piss poor treatment of our commonwealth brothers and Gurkas over the years is disgraceful. The general public can alsobon occassion hate the presence of us. Whilst I have no objection to the spirit of Armed Forces Day I would rather it was felt everyday than once a year.
  12. Did we lose Robinson? I thought he looked a no bad GK when he came in for Simonsen. Better than Bell and certainly good enough to be the backup
  13. Liked his comments about it being about both parties asking the right questions, it means he has scrutinised the board on their objectives,plans listen to what they are saying and asking listen closely to their answers and not simply accepted the job blindly.
  14. Lewis to come back on loan also go and get Danny Wilson on a free.
  15. Great comments about value on and off he pitch. No more over the hill players on high wages with no sell on value. Building up of youth. Attacking style of play. Lean squad offering value for money. This guy could be a fantastic appointment. Time for fans and importantly the board to back him.
  16. Cashed out my 1-0 bet on the hope of a goal... and it worked!!! Now to cash out my 2-0 one!!
