Is anyone of the opinion that there are better tablets out there for ipad 3 money?...mrs pl's laptop is fucked and am encouraging her to go down the tablet route but have heard theres stuff the ipad wont do that others will for less money?...

If we had a season or two's finance from the champions league would we increase our chances of winning trophies in general?....my heart says trophy but the head says champions league. Thats if Ashley opens his wallet of course. The Debuchy saga showed how he works, but if it was suggested last season that >5mill was too much for a 27 year old full back then I think many would have agreed.

Sounds a bit strange to me, unless its just a refurb of the exisitng (empty?) ones at th Leazes End. The article only mentions full boxes in the Milburn and South West Corner.

Thats astonishing. Thats the first time theyve gone into print and dared to criticise Eddie Mitchell and his Russian money laundering mate. Thats a banning for the only local paper from the ground, which may be either an inspired piece of attention grabbing from the Echo or suicide for their circualrion figures as their football coverage is about the only reason to buy the fuckin thing Bournemouth have always been somebody's cash cow, haven't they Harry?

She likes Sheldon

Wait till he see's what Mrs PL has got her eye on.....as seen on Big Bang Theory...

The true cost of an iphone 5?.... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/apple/9563637/Apple-iPhone-5-sales-overshadowed-by-riots-at-Chinese-factory.html

Getting to the final would ensure one of the greatest piss ups in the club's history so I think Pardew is right to prioritise this one If we got to the semi's some would change their tune am sure..

The present government are cutting in a way that makes Thatcher look like she had a light touch CT. Google what the benefit bill was last year.

Are there any figures of what was saved in the 80s when publicly funded industry was shut down v the cost of benefits in those communities affected now?...it would make an interesting comparison,. Reap what you sow and all that...

If she knew of the cover up, and did nothing to prevent bullshit evidence going to the inquest, that wouldnt necessarily mean she or any other ministers of the time were culpable in the cover up?...ok, fair enough. Not how I see it but there you go. I don't live in hope of anything, I think theres more to come out, possibly when those still alive from SYP start getting fingered again after a possible new inquest, which some bereaved family members do want. Far be it for me to defend Jack Straw, but are you referring to this?... Mr Straw wrote to the then Attorney-General, John Morris: "I am certain that continuing public concern will not be allayed with a reassurance from the Home Office that there is no new evidence. I therefore propose that there should be an independent examination of the alleged new evidence by a senior legal figure." At the end of June 1997, he met Lord Justice Stuart-Smith, appointed to lead the review. He told him that his officials had already looked at the case and concluded that "there was not sufficient evidence to justify a new inquiry". That was in June 1997, a decade before the Hillsborough panel was even thought of. The only new evidence came as a result of the panel's findings. But I do accept the panel's findings did paint him in an incredibly poor light, he certanly appears to be sweeping the whole thing under the carpet: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/ios-hillsborough-exclusive-revealed--the-critical-role-of-jack-straw-8165990.html But he didnt let the original bent evidence through to the inquest, which may only be morally bankrupt as well, equally perhaps not, plainly am not a lawyer. We'll see.

Thats what I was thinking....whats happened to the Christmas "Dr Goodvibes" Tree we used to know and love tolerate?

When its quiet at night its full beam, until you see lights on the opposite carriageway then dip them iyam. Dont know what the Higway Code ssays about it, and it may well have changed since the last time I looked at it, circa 1987

Bolton at home alst season, just beaten Swansea on Good Friday, 4th well within our grasp, and we played as if it was a pre season kick about...theres nothing new about this, we're just inconsistant performance wise but good at grinding out results due to one or two brilliant indivduals on any given day. Pardews comments are a concern, but Spurs went through all this last season and finsihed 4th.Not saying we will, but no need to go overboard yet.

Well no, look at how the likes of Cabaye and Cisse played this season in general, along with Pardews comments to that affect. 2nd half Monday was a lot better, so am wondering how they looked yesterday?...

Agree with most of that, Merveux is the one for me. Getting a major chance and is either unwilling or incapable of doing what Pardew wants. Loads of folk saying about his lovely first touch based on cameo's at the end of games, but he's rightly getting the " Ben Arfa" treatment from last season. It looks like its been the making of HBA, lets hope it has the same effect on him as he could be key to playing the 3 up front that suits us best.

Apparently hes accused Fergie of grassing him up (to the 4th official I presume?) to get him sent off....thought Halsey got it right after seeing motd2 last night, but did sky show Fergie whispering into the 4th's ear hole or anything?

Was the performance yesterday overall better or worse than the first half Monday night?..I appreciate Everton are a better side than Norwich, but I thought the same as Stevie has just aluded to at half time on Monday... at least 3 senior players put a shift in that had "I want to be elsewhere" stamped all over it. Wasnt there yesterday so cant really judge.

dark horse CT...in many ways...

If this lad is interested in musicals its likely that he's lost interest in women a long time ago anyway...has he got a lot of Judy Garland cd's too? ......

Being weened off the old Prozac by his doctor I've heard...manic depressive in real life apparently....

Well Madini and Beckenbauer were for the vast majority of their careers playing in completely different posistions and with different roles and jobs in the teams they played for so its not a good comparison iyam. Beckenbauer invented the attacking "Libero" position, or sweeper as it was known in this country, on his own virtually. You would never have described Maldini as a sweeper, despite his move to the middle later in his career. As a defender he was a marker, as most Italian defenders are..a brilliant one as you say like, but there were big diffferences between them.

just watching the highlights and he put a lovely ball into the box with his left in the first half so maybe we're both wrong! Horses for courses at the moment, trying to sign Debuchy this summer indicates that as we speak Pardew sees him on the left, I've no real complaints. After this summer, we know we'll have to be patient if we want that situation to change.
