How many of these visitors actually SEE a royal? They, like the British tourists, stand outside the gates of Buckingham palace or whatever and take pictures of the building. I'd visit the White House if I were to go to Washington - doesn't mean I'd do it because the President lives there. As...

Yeah, as part of the going concern there will be a conversation between auditors and owners as to whether they intend to call in a debt/interest and they'll probably say no, but it's not legally binding. Just a sort of gentleman's agreement (needs a new name in the modern day that really). I...

No it isn't, but it still has to be accounted for and the club has to make allowances to show it can service that debt and interest should it actually be called in, even if everyone expects it to be deferred. So it does hamstring to a small degree. Most businesses working on credit are quite...

Trouble with Davies is that he comes across as a bit hotheaded and can react, so it's almost only a matter of time before he ends up suspended and someone comes in and potentially takes his place if they perform well. He's good at what he does but having a solid player at this level who can just...

Agree entirely but at least with that there is a manifesto to be used to hold them accountable to next time. This is like putting out a manifesto the entirety of which is "why not vote for us. The current lot aren't great are they".

Depends on the pitch you played on - if you were on one of the ones by the front gates they were and were really boggy but others like the one in the middle of the athletic tracks or used by Sparkes and Smith Clarke were above the buildings. Mind you, they weren't much better and were still a...

Difference is in America it's almost all about $$$$. If a franchise will likely make more somewhere else the league will move it quite happily - couldn't give a fuck about links to community. One possible exception is Green Bay, where the town would probably disappear if the Packers left. Also...

Yep. Very rare the average Joe has the faintest idea have invested money with, certainly via their pension pot and even with a financial advisor. At most they'll have a vague idea of what percentage of their money is in bonds, property, stocks and shares, interest etc. as part of some incredibly...

I think their flags should be split into three horizontal sections. Devon - brown on bottom, white in the middle, red on top Cornwall - brown on bottom, red in middle, white on top.

Well oil and gas will be incredibly scarce in a million years and with inflation as a fossil fuel he may well be worth that. Mind you, he was a fossil when he joined us!

Another thing that annoys me is the whole "British people regaining control of British laws" brigade in parliament. Don't think it's right that the EU have such a say in our legislation but when someone suggests letting the British public have a say on the ACTUAL deal to leave the EU rather than...

And what exactly IS that deal then? As I've said above everyone had a different reason for voting leave so therefore any deal is likely to please one leave voter and enrage another. It's therefore hardly surprising that no deal can be made because no-one wants the same thing. If the deal...

It's one of the things that annoys me - when politicians (especially hard line brexiteers) etc go on the news and say "this isn't the Brexit the British public voted for". What Brexit DID the British public vote for exactly? I don't remember it being a pick and mix and there being choices as to...

Really not sure what team to suggest for this. Every one of the strikers can't complain being dropped. MR will probably drop Hiwula for JCH but we've tried Chaplin/JCH before but I can't recall Hiwula/JCH being tried. I'd change one of the left pairing, probably McCallum assuming one of Brown or...

Mixing a couple of threads here but does anyone remember playing on 'seasick' at Woodlands? Fucking thing had run-off channels dug into it to stop it waterlogging!

But surely then the question should be "why is the goalkeeping coach being put in charge of shooting practice? I can understand him being involved in it from the perspective of the 'keepers saving the shots, but someone else entirely should be in charge of the strikers. Having said that if...

The pitch is awful but it's always been awful post Xmas, even before Wasps starting using it. That's just exacerbated the problem and like has been said pitch quality is far less important to them than us. If them playing on it is digging clumps out of it it's going to be hard to get it to...

Sounds like a hell of a game for the U18's today. 5-5 apparently v Brizzle City

Immensely frustrating. Letting in the early goal was bad enough (although arguably could have helped us over the course of the game as we had to attack and they had something to sit back and defend) but the standard of shooting, desire to get onto crosses and following up was just utterly...

Definitely wasn't that bad in the 90's. A lot of my friends lived around those areas and apart from the odd fight not much happened. I happily walked around the areas even in the dark and walked 2-3 miles to and from school everyday without incident. School was pretty multi-cultural too and...
