So sorry for your loss Dave. My deepest condolences to you and your family.

Keeping Trent and Mohamed rested for the Spurs game.

Coop - the Pi has a decent video graphics chip in it, that's why you can watch 720P videos on it really smoothly. 1080P video, especially Blu-Ray is a bit jerky from the Youtube video's I've seen.

I'm thinking of buying one myself! Did you buy the licences as well, that they offered?

Any chance of a link or two, so I can catch up with the info re Nagra 3? PM if necessary to keep the site out of trouble!

I used to "have" access to the Spanish and German channels. You could watch the latest PPV films and the footy, Spanish German and 3pm EPL games. To watch in English, all you had to do was change the audio settings, I had a good 3-4 years before Nagra 3. When Nagra 3 came, I've not bothered with the European Satellite system no more. Thank goodness for Internet streaming and the like!

Top journalist, that Matt Taibbi! A journalist who has backbone and will call a spade, a spade. I would recommend you to follow him on Twitter, if you are on it. Very good with the economic stuff/news!!!!

Done.

If your laptop is a Dell, then be careful, and start saving up for a new one. I remember before I got made redundant, that we had a lot of calls from users who were using older Dell PC's, they were pushing 4 years +, some were 7 years +. After opening up the machines, the capacitors on the motherboard had started bulging, so we usually had to replace the machines. I remember some of my senior colleagues stating that Dell had puled a fast one with certain models, using inferior parts, and had some sort of lawsuit in the US against them.

I will agree that ITV probably edged it with regard to the analysis. Carra and Martinez were pretty good with their insights. On the BBC side, Vialli really impressed me, along with Klinsmann (sp). Vialli impressed me the most on the Italy Vs Germany game, where he stated that the German team had made a tactical switch to mirror the Italians, rather than play their own game, which could have led to a different outcome. Keown was a disgrace in that game, he offered absolutely nothing.

I believe LLU means Local Loop Unbundled or words to that effect. I believe it means that BT do not have total control over the local exchange, so their competitors can install their hardware in these local exchanges and offer a competitivly priced product. If there is no LLU at your local exchange, then the broadband competitor has to go through BT World and it ends up costing you a few more pounds every month. I'm sure the guys will correct me if there is any mistake in the above!

I feel stupid for my previous statement!

The problem with bringing Russian players over is 2 fold - They don't always too well abroad (generalising I know!). They get paid very well and have much lower taxation rates at home, so unless we are going make him one of the best paid players, I'd be surprised if he comes over.

I believe he won a European cup with Dortmund in the late 90's?

Cheers Trumo!!!

Dave actually mentioned it on the site, it might be in the Henderson thread. I believe it would come to a total of 16 million, if we win the league and or the European Cup. So not too bad a deal for an England player!

Richster - I believe the owner of this website, Dave U, had a very good source to confirm the deal was 13 million plus add ons. Dave is usually right about these things. So accept 13 million plus add ons has gospel.

Try Linux. That's what I've been using for the last 3 years. Does nearly everything that I require from it. I mainly use the computer for surfing the 'net, docs, Youtube, BBCiplayer, downloading .... I still have Windows Vista, but I rarely use it. Linux Mint is the one I would recommend. The DVD download version, will have all the necessary propreity stuff on (flash, MP3, DVD's) so you should have no issues.

Not specifically at you Stumptown, but some of you have really poor memories! I believe there was an interview with DC, put on the forum, earlier in the year, where he said in effect, that he wouldn't get players that the manager didn't want. I assume Kenny Dalglish will always have a few players in mind for each position, Damien will also have a few ideas too, they come to some sort of short list and chase the targets has best as they can.

I defeated the Genie with Steve Clarke, our 1st team coach!

Not bad at all.... pretty decent moonwalk too!

Thanks for the reply TP. Has the lad got a future here? Decent Left Backs are very hard to find at the moment ... what are his chances if he came back? Or was he bought just so that we could make some money down the line?

Have we sold him, or is he on loan?

I believe the rules are that you balance the books within a 3 year period. So how they manage that is going to be very interesting!

Got the book last night, and have just finished it off. Very good book indeed. After reading it, I felt some sympathy for Moores, I think he genuinely made a mistake by trusting Gillett and taking his word as Gospel with regard to Hicks. I loved the way Brian described the court case, with Purslow keeping count and Broughton has cool has ice, but what I really liked was the way he described SOS and Kop Faithful, using the Republican movement as a analogy. The book has really helped me understand how much some of the guys on this great forum were involved! Thank you gents for saving our club!
