  1. I'm permanently tracked at work within 10m (the size of the pin on the screen), not only does it tell my company where I am but also how much fuel I've used driving, how much I've used with the engine idling at a standstill, harsh brakes, how many times I've stopped, the % of time spent in the green band, over revs, over rev time, speeding (anything above 60mph), we get a bonus each month on overall driving style, it doesn't bother me that we have one fitted and I don't get those that say that we're constantly been watched, like those in the office have nothing better to do with their time other than look where the other 249 drivers are.

  2. Why is there an international friendly played now just as the top divisions all start?

     

    Why have england arranged one for a fixture filled with history that quite a few wont see as a friendly?

     

    The FA bang on about fixtures not suiting the national side - then they arrange this.

     

    I couldn't care less about the national side, but I know a lot do. If the national side want to be successful they need protecting, but whats good for the goose is good for the gander and playing this kind of game next week is stupid.

     

    Imagine if a Rooney / Cole or Gerrard gets injured. Isn't it in extactly this friendly match that Dean Ashton ended his career? As Prozac points out, half will probably withdraw.

     

    Obviously UEFA / FIFA organise these so playing the friendlies is probably an obligation. Playing a team like Scotland isn't. No reason the FA couldn't have picked a side like Hungary.....

     

    oh sorry they are still paying for Wembley. It's all about money, money - the reason why the premier league don't care about the national side.

    Sounds to me like you do care about the national side...

  3. The spewing was the best bit. To be fair to the lad, he did try to carry on when it was clear he'd rather be pretty much anywhere else. Looked like he didn't know what day it was.

    It looked a very bright shade of green in the rag, that's what happens when you squirt a bottle of that :censored: sugary lucozade drink down your throat before taking to the park I guess.

  4. Thanks but no thanks Underdog....It was intended as a starting offer idea to help to raise more funds for ...whatever.

     

    It was there for you to consider along with the rest of your colleagues, quite clearly taken by some as offensive, others as "set in stone" and sadly taken totally out of context by another....

     

    Imho far too many have taken liberties with the OWTB site, do and say whatever they want without any encouragement to at least try and see matters from alternative viewpoints and sort of contain the obscene language.....hence the suggestion of a deduction for negativity.

     

    But there you go, some quite clearly think that to try and be positive at the price of 1p is clearly asking too much.

     

    I have a large number (8) very large Scrapbooks containing masses of pictures, press reports, cuttings, facts and figures etc. etc. from the "Pinch Me" seasons, together with a couple of Boxed and Mint Commerative Glass Tankards from the same periods.

     

    I intended to offer them to the Club as both Jenny and Richard A... are aware, perhaps for display in the new stand (their suggestion) which will go up despite the sarcasm and nonsense spouted about it, I had also decided it may be best to split them between OWTB and the club to raise whatever monies to help.

     

    If you wish me to continue posting along the same lines as I have and take the ":censored:"....not a problem to me personally, but I find it offensive for the other reasons I have already stated and feel very strongly that by not discouraging these activities.... we're all wasting our time and your efforts.

     

    Therefore the idea is there if you wish to modify it, use it if you like....it was intended that it could be expanded so that other genuine fans could do the same, when it is analysed you will find it should produce more than the £10 p.m. Direct Debits system produces.

     

    Thanks for your time.

     

    Regards

    Ooops.

  5. Here's one for you Wardle.....

     

     

    I'll donate 00.01p for every printed post or reply on OWTB for the rest of this month, with option to continue for further months of this season !

     

    BUT and it is a ...BIG BUT.......I will deduct a sum of £10.00 for every Red Card post which openly attacks, Lee Johnson, Simon Corney or any player or member of staff at Boundary Park.... during the same and each period.....

     

    REFERENCE TO ANYONE BEING ":censored:"...ETC OR THE USE OF THE WORD "FU*K" IN ANY DERIVATIVE FORM when commenting about matches when personally aimed or directed at players count as Red Card postings.

     

    I'll now await comments advising me to Fu*K Off or similar....

     

    But leave it to yourself and admin colleagues to work out what this is worth to you and playershare.

    Here's one for you:- how about you stop talking bollocks.

  6. If the person before, who I believe was disjointed, had jumped off a cliff would you follow him too? :wink:

     

    I expected better of you Diego a man with your experience of loopholes and contracts should have seen that massive one. Like I said previously I don't mind what you pay, Diego, I merely wanted to make the point. The same way you want to make the point about county names.

    Get a life.
