  1. I'm not happy with the mixed fonts, inconsistent formatting and structure of that.
  2. For the worst... I present for your consideration, Mr Simon Tracey... to quote Wikipedia: "A loan spell at Norwich City during the 1994-95 season was a nightmare for Tracey. He made three appearances - in the first he ran out of his area allowing Coventry to score an easy goal, in the second he was stretchered off with an injury and in the third he let in five goals in an FA Cup tie at Everton." For the best.. does Hucks count? as he started on loan before the permanent transfer?
  3. other than Ips**t losing... we should already generally want draws - the less points that other teams share can only help us.
  4. i read quite a lot of tedious nonsense about this subject. The level of science literacy among journalists, politicians and the general public is shocking.. To be clear - the technology exists right now, the question of using it is political and economic (although the economic case is steered by the political will).. For the OP, once the RE generation capacity reaches the level we need, it doesn't matter where the energy comes from - a joule of electrical energy is the same whether it comes from coal, nuclear or solar farms.. that can then be used to create materials, manufacture wind turbines etc. Energy can absolutely be stored (no - it doesn't need magic/expensive batteries) - we already do it via pumped water storage in the UK.. add that to the interconnectors that share base load across Europe.. Whats the plan - keep using fossil fuels until they are all used up.??? in the words of Don Hurberts (of Royal Dutch Shell) in 1999 "the stone age didn't end because they ran out of stones"..
  5. yep - i'm with you on that.. time to see what i've got cooking in my rumour wok..
  6. its complicated.. but no he didn't say it in commentary... it was in a letter from a "Miss Tess Tickle"..
  7. weirdly.. after about a year - this is the first time i've managed to get back on!
  8. the only thing that can kill Barnes is Barnes..
  9. Russell Grant - midfield pairing who knew what the future held in store for Capricorns... You will meet a tall stranger, who will take ball off you...
  10. So...... looks like it was a missed intercept with the interceptor S300 missile coming down in Poland... However..... what and where was the intercept attempted and what course was the target (probably a Russian cruise missile) taking? Looking at the location.. its either coming from the south (ship launched cruise missile) or from the north (air launched, from Belarusian airspace).. seems unlikely to be from the south as the missed intercept would have resulted in the S300 landing south east of Lviv and inside Ukraine.. So the North... that cruise missile must have been extremely close to the Polish border (or even over it) - especially given the Polish border bulges to the East above Lviv... Not sure NATO will be amused to find Russian cruise missiles transiting Polish airspace! Anyway NATO tracked both missiles - so we will find out.
  11. hopefully when he tries to come back to the UK they send him to Rwanda
  12. I've worked with slopey shouldered people like him before.. passive and fails to take ownership... Sack him. Today.
  13. i'm sure his "career" will go the same way as (another corrupt, pointless, fame hungry, treacherous loser) Lembit Opik
  14. when it comes to funny stories... this one from 2004 is hard to beat.. its the details.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/3497480.stm no fooling the police in that town... also, was she expecting $998,328 in change?
  15. I keep getting this message.. But i kinda like that i'm being told i've made a bad request... makes me feel naughty
  16. Stop getting Partridge wrong! Lynn is his PA.. Jill was the secretary at (the now defunct) Peartree Productions
  17. here's one many have probably forgotten.. Simon Haworth.. we left getting a desperately needed striker in that transfer window (summer 1997 i think) to the last minute... and the deal fell through at the last minute (i believe he failed the medical).. Only 500k... he went onto to score 75 goals in 196 games for Wigan and Tranmere..
  18. one specific mistake... selling Scott Howie Others have mentioned not having a replacement for Gunn in 94/95 - but we had already sold his cover... i still think had Howie still been there we would have stayed up (and avoided Simon Tracey).. no relegation, no wilderness years in Div 1 etc. You could also argue not selling either Ekoku or Robins also would have been enough to keep us up..
