    PROMOTION NO PROMOTION

    Maybe if we weren't paying Wasps they wouldn't have £100K to give their community team and we'd be able to afford to give £100K to ours.

    Have I missed an academy update?

    Not had much time to come on here for the last couple of weeks as I've been busy moving back to Cov. Thought I'd caught up but following the SBT meetings tonight on twitter it sounds as if the issues with the academy are sorted but I can't see any reference to it on the Telegraph or Observer...

    I bet all the kids checked to see where the funding was coming from before they accepted a Wasps flag :facepalm:

    Trident

    Waste of money IMO. The cold war era has gone. The enemy know is the likes of ISIS and having nukes is zero deterrent to them. How can we go to war with Iraq claiming (falsely) its because they have weapons of mass destruction, and go around telling other countries they shouldn't have nuclear...

    Adam Armstrong

    Saw this blow up on twitter, is that the original source? Suspect if he is loaned out he would be quite happy to come back here so hopefully TM is staying in touch with Newcastle.

    Chris McCann Signing Number 3.....

    Looks a good signing. Wonder if he plans to get a replacement in the Jan windows or things one of our younger players will step up.

    Away Kit Launch

    Given all our kits are from templates, as is the case for most teams these days, couldn't they let us know what the options are towards the end of the season and have a competition / vote for which one we want?

    just seen ticket price vs pompey

    You could but everytime mine were delivered there was a note in there saying they wouldn't be the same ones as picked on the website. Then you'd get to the game and be told to sit anywhere!

    Away ticket discrace...

    If they've only been charged £1 service charge they've done well as its supposed to be £6. The club absorbed the cost during early bird so there was no service charge then. As has been explained many times its because the ticketing is now run by ticketmaster who add a service charge as that is...

    People do realise this is the League Cup not the JPT don't they?

    SBITC Kit / Boot Amnesty

    Great idea. Anyone know what the club does with their old kit and training gear?

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Exactly. I suspect you'd also see an end to career politicians who do very little but pocket a huge amount of cash. How many MPs these days aren't even from the area they represent.

    RIP Labour

    But that's democracy. We can't start picking and choosing who is allowed to stand. If their policies are as bad as you say they are then it is up to the other parties to highlight the problems and question them on it so that they don't obtain enough votes to gain power. Its a very dangerous...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Personally I'd like to see wages slashed in politics. Start with our own MPs. Make it so they all receive the average UK wage or something similar. I'd also stop all this second home rubbish. Would be much cheaper in the long run to build accommodation for MPs. Give them the basics they need...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Not really. He was doing both jobs until a change in the law required that to end. This was your original post. The implication is clear. The reality is he trained for 4 years and practiced for 18 only leaving the profession when he couldn't maintain both roles due to a change in the law...

    He was a Lithuanian MP when he left. Their salary is around £20K a year.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Started his internship in 1975 and qualified as a surgeon in 1979 so 4 years. Then practiced until 1993 (18 years). He didn't give it all up to become an MP. He became an MP in 1992 after being Supreme Deputy of Lithuania for 2 years, while still working. He wrote the Lithuanian constitution...

    Alternatives to sky, virgin etc

    Moving into my new place tomorrow. I've gone for BT. Paying £30 a month for Infinity, BT TV and BT Sport. Includes a recorder as well to replace my Sky Plus box. Probably going to add Now TV. If you buy the cards that's £5 a month for the Sky channels.

    RIP Labour

    The key is how it compares to others. More people think Cameron is (was) doing his job badly, 70% don't trust Osbourne financially. When you compare the two doesn't look such a bad result for Corbyn.
