Although I don't presume to occupy the same level as you mental giants on here,It's farly obvious that you know fuck all about drug development from filing an NDA to actual launch of a product through it's lifecycle. A suggestion of a 10 year patent life is absurd as it would markedly reduce innovation. And even the current 20 year is too short given the costs and length of time for devolpment. One of the many aspects of this industry that you that you also fail to understand is the costs associated with R&D which do not pan out. Another is that generic companies are actually similar to parasites in that they take but do not give back. Yes the drugs are cheaper, but if you relied on generic companies to further the cause of drug development aimed at disease areas of unmet need, we'll all be facing alzheimer's, parkinsons, heart disease, strokes etc down the line. All of the money generic companies make goes into their back pockets with no advancement in research. You also fail to understand that the US market has financed the vast majority of drug research over the years. Without it, many of the drugs you accept as commonplace would not be available. Bono would really be whining as the africans would be dying at an even higher clip from AIDS than they are now.

FFS Parky, change that avatar.

No seriously........ .........getting back to Marvin Gaye

Pity his Dad didn't see it that way.

Can't believe anybody would think an injury to Butt is something to celebrate. And on a broader note, nyff, I know what I think but as for " we " ?

We'll see. Nobody is busting down the doors for anybody. Embargo or not, money talks.

Least generous for the elderly. Mother fucking godsend for immigrants.

Can't help but feel confident with that squad.

Maybe you are right. Llambias is probably milking him as well and Seymour Pierce. I said, IMO, he wasn't stupid

Mind you, Parky. It still doesn't stop me trying. You'd think I'd learn after all these years.

None of it makes any sense.

Becoming a self made billionaire is hardly a dubious success. The bloke can't be stupid and has to recognize that he needs to get out as soon as possible. Even hiring this group to ostensibly sell the club can't be cheap.

I've never been able to get really pissed like a lot of people. I throw up first before I get even close and that's the night shot.

That's what it would appear but it can't be his aim unless he has money to burn and he doesn't.

It makes you wonder how long ashley is prepared to throw good money after bad until he finally cuts his losses. Despite comments on here, I'm sure he's not stupid so he surely must have some plan in place other than asset stripping. I hope anyway.

Did the story get front page coverage in the Guardian? Or the Times? Or the Telegraph?

Hard to know what to say really.

Nobody wanted food parcels in N'awlins, Parky. Now plasma TVs and Nikes........

Unless they are fagsmoking beer guzzling fat cunts like the ones on this board. With compromised immune systems. Anybody missing? Course they may just be on their holidays but then again......

Apart from Campbell perhaps, who really cares that they've gone? I doubt if we'll loose any sleep over them.

Isn't this old news?

Depends how far you want to go back. There's been a load of Sunderland players that I've seen over the years that I'd have had at Newcastle although I wouldn't have said it at the time. Colin Todd for one.

FFS, Parky. You have too much time on your hands.

You can't have one law for the likes of coloccini and one for Barton when it comes to contracts. Or at least you shouldn't have. Plus, Barton on 60K will be a hell of a lot better player than coloccini on 60K and I'll take anything to get back to the premier league at this point.

It's fucking sad that our standards have fallen so low that this waste of space is even getting a mention.
