Why start now after all these years? (at Bellamy)

JFK: " 'Ow much further is it, Derek? I'm sweating like a pig 'ere" DL: "Just another 8 flights to go, Joe. Let's run the next one." Another coffee Joe? "BOO YA FUCKER YA!!!!!! Ha, ha, just my little joke, Joe."

Owen and possibly Martins won't be with us next season. I'm convinced Butt will still be getting a run out when the last trumpet sounds.

I think it's scaremongering.

I've given up trying to understand their football decisions. Anything other than an engraved tankard and a whip-round for Kinnear at the end of the season makes no sense to me.
-
And footballers wonder why people think they're thick

62 years old and a triple bypass. It beggars belief they're even giving him the chance to come back. It's not as if it's Sir Alex we're talking about here....it's a man with a record of underachievement. It beggars belief it really does, they're completely and utterly clueless and we're going down.
-
Which is really pointing out the absurdity of the basis of these measures. Never mind
-
Yes. Also sorting out the football side takes longer than sorting out the financial side. Especially when you're responsible for the mess and don't have a clue what you're doing.

Plum duff. Only seen once a year when gifts are handed out.

The good old "let's blame the current mess on the previous owners" defence. I assume the 'associate' is LLambias btw.
-
you could make some serious cash on the photos of them shitting..... tbh....lower taxes as a result......i'm just sayin' You don't work for the council by any chance?

Duff by name and Duff by nature

I find it ironic that "celebrities" self-righteously fight for the right to privacy notwithstanding their lack oif privacy is due to their own demented self promotion and vanity. On the other hand Joe Public, the vast majority of whom peacefully go about their business, are relentlessly filmed, snapped, pried and snooped on because they are not to be trusted and must be treated like naughty children about to commit a crime. In the new Britain privacy is the preserve of the elite. Screw your rights; pavements must be clean.
-
No doubt there'll be some attractive women who need to be carefully photographed by council employees. Just to make sure they don't shit on the pavement. Better safe than sorry.

Yes. If you're going to trample on someone's rights you might as well be upfront about it Snooping, stealth taxes and pointless wars - Labour's legacy to the nation. And nervous dogs

I bet Dave Whelan has his own washroom & toilet. That's obviously his idea of classy ownership - them and us. I couldn't care less what Ashley wears, it's how he's behaved that bothers me. And for someone who's basically named the stadium after himself to accuse someone else of lacking class is staggering. Imagine if Shepherd had named SJP the SO stadium?

From the Beeb: Councils in England and Wales have used controversial spying laws 10,000 times in the past five years, figures obtained by the Liberal Democrats show. The Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (Ripa) was meant to fight terrorism and serious crime. But officials have been using it to spy on suspected dog fouling, littering and other minor offences. The government has promised curbs on its use but the Lib Dems warn it could still become a "snoopers' charter". The figures, obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, reveal for the first time how widespread the use of Ripa is among council officials in England and Wales. A survey of more than 180 local authorities found: • 1,615 council staff have the power to authorise the use of Ripa. • 21% (or 340) of these staff are below senior management grade. • Ripa powers have been used 10,333 times in the last five years. • Just 9% of these authorisations have led to a successful prosecution, caution or fixed-penalty notice The Lib Dems are calling on the government to ensure that Ripa powers are only used where strictly necessary and that their use is sanctioned by magistrates. New guidelines The party's local government spokesman Julia Goldsworthy said: "This government has seen civil liberties as little more than a temporary inconvenience. "Slowly but surely freedoms have been eroded and we're now in a situation where dog fouling is considered sufficient to warrant surveillance by council officials. "When Ripa was passed only nine organisations, including the police and security services, were allowed to use it. Now a total of 795 bodies including all 475 local authorities can use powers that were originally designed to prevent terrorism." The government is planning to issue new guidelines to councils on the use of Ripa. In November, Home Secretary Jacqui Smith said it should not be used to snoop on people suspected of minor offences such as dog fouling or putting out rubbish on the wrong day. But she defended councils' right to use the powers against suspected rogue traders or fly-tippers. Ms Smith wants applications for the use of Ripa to go to the top of organisations, such as the chief executive of a council rather than the head of trading standards or environmental health. The Conservatives say they would restrict the use of Ripa powers by local authorities only to crimes which could lead to a prison sentence. Local councils would also require judicial approval for the use of surveillance powers and council leaders would have to sign off each use of the powers, under Tory proposals. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A perfect illustration, if one were needed, of why you can't trust organisations with sweeping powers. They just can't help abusing them for whatever floats their boat.

He talks a load of crepe these days
-
He has a tiresome agenda, aye
-
Sadly I don't think he'll be missed when he inevitably goes at the end of the season. It's a real shame but he's never earned his money imo. He put England ahead of us (as he had every right to do) and we paid the price for it.

giz the job I tend to load up frozen pizza's with more olive oil, crushed garlic, chilli and spread a copious layer of spag bog sauce on for good measure. One would stop JK's heart in 10 secs. Parky - heart of a lion, gut of a rhinoceros
