It's hard to get a bottle of wine here for under 300 baht. A reasonable bottle will set you back about 600+ baht.

A fairly unreasonable bottle for 600 Baht in Samui. Paying double that for anything half decent usually but occasionally finding a cheap and good wine so when I go back to buy a few more bottles they are all gone!...Happens every time too!!

Ok I'm predicting us to lose the next three heavily and get relegated.

Oh hang on that's not us....

She was hit from the side, in her ribs. Did you not read that bit? Even with all the 'knowledge' in your post, you haven't the sense to understand what you read about the incident. Or you didn't read it. If you had you wouldn't have posted what you did.

I'll stand where you want and you fire into the air. If you hit me in the ribs, from the side, with a bullet which has lost almost all of it's kinetic energy, you win! Very best of luck to yer!

And to you posters calling all the tourists 'idiots' etc. Maybe, just maybe, they don't all subscribe to TV (or aren't watching any media)and had no idea of what was going to happen as they are on holiday. These sort of events ARE watched by tourists that naturally have a facination with these 'out of the norm' events. I was in France with some friends, completely unaware of why the streets had filled with people and lots of shouting. 1st natural thought was what was going on? so we went to look. Exited swiftly when it became serious. Were we 'stupid' to go and look at this strange occurence? No, because we didn't know something 'serious' was going on. Any one of us could have been hurt. Not through stupidity, just by enjoying a holiday and watching strange events without any early signs of any danger. Not all protests/gatherings end in violence. Very bad luck if you do get caught in the crossfire of a protest gone bad, particularly if you're enjoying your holiday.

I was caught up in similar situation in London during May Day riots. Walked out of Oxford Circus tube right into the middle of it and was 'detained' by the police for 2 hours while the protesters fought a constant battle with them. A frightening experience to become an unwilling protester in the eyes of the supposed authorities. The police did nothing that day to help any of us (maybe 90%) who had nothing to do with the protest.

a great result for pfc. now the filth will be tired against us on weds night, so we can finish em off quicker

Believe what you will however the real business starts here. You're right to comment on the extra time but it wasn't a tiring game for us more frustrating than anything else and we will want to take it out on you on Wednesday....bring it on!

Well the OP has not repied once to this URGENT request and is clearly a Troll.

Posted on the 11th, give it a chance.

Sure I just hope the next post comes from Australia.

the biggest vehicle pays!

Crap, you try arguing with a cement truck driver.

This is in fact true on Samui. Unless you are a tourist of course...then its time to play the lottery.

What about when you pick the ball out of the net?

Let's wait and see what happens at Old Trafford.

The only time we bend over in the Tottenham thread is to tie our bootlaces.

But please carry on with your unholy pact gentlemen.

To use the words of the Coward that is Kevin Keegan, " I'd love it, i'd love it if ......."

No one will be happier than us if Portsmouth bottle it today Singhy. Not that it will matter either way as we will win no matter how they play.

I wonder how Portsmouth will react to their relegation news. It can't have done much for their team's morale going into this one!

Grant basically conceeded Relegation a few weeks back & has been resting Players in the Prem ever since they won their Quarter Final

I wasn't aware they had enough players to rest anyone!

passports money and credit cards

note to self: continue to keep above on my body not in a "bag"

Unbelievalbly stupid behaviour. I did something similar once on a bus trip to Ranong and had £1k worth of T/C nicked. Luckily I got them replaced. Its a harsh lesson OP I hope your not too much out of pocket in the end.

I agree its a bit odd to request urgent advice and then simply disappear....mind you that's the advice he was given!

Tricky one.

Yep, Lawro's gone for us again

Hardly surprising tho I reckon 9 out of 10 scammers would have bet on us winning this one.

Thank <deleted> for that...

Huge win, massive resuult in the other Game too..

Burnley &/or Hull now have to get 5 Points more than us now for us to get relegated & i can't see it to be honest..

We have Wigan at Home too which if we win that too, it's a done deal that we stay up then we can roll over for City on the last day without any worries at all..

Our players know you lot will roll over. That's why we'll have it sorted already Saying that, i do hope you fail to get the points and go into the last game needing to beat them and thus handing us 4th.

It probably won't happen but........

It's not about us now though Carmine, it's about Hull & Burnley getting 2 more wins more than us which i can't see at all & if we beat Wigan, they have to then get 4 wins out of their last 5 Games, one of them have to anyway..

What do you reckon ??

Hull are the most likely to catch you but the match with Wigan is crucial. I'm hoping you lose that one.

Huge match against City last game will be agony for you all.

You'll probably scrape through overall on goal difference though.

'When is the next flight to Singapore?' would be my first thought...run quick!!

Hmm the chairman of BA....Aside from the strikes this is the same bloke who has turned a well run airline into a second rate overpriced joke. This bloke has no respect for his customers so don't expect the fans will fare any better.

A disastrous appointment from a footballing point of view.

sorry to go off topic, but dont the scottish public recieve far more benefits than the rest of the british isles. i.e free dental and health care, which the rest of the country pays for.

Shhhh.

Well its tme for a poll doncha think?

Meanwhile in the civilised world.....

We can just approach it as we do every year hoping there are few injuries. Life and fun must go on....!

Potatoe's

Is that a phonetic spelling?

No offence mate but just call 'em spuds in future.

we can roll over for City on the last day without any worries at all..

Well done today cheeky scammers but I hope you're still sweating heavily against City at the end. After all its no more than you deserve.

Please don't quote me on this, but the answer appears to be yes. I understand the fine line dividing raising money for charity and working without a permit may have been confused sadly.

We should get a petition together and send it to the mayor. After I mentioned this in the pub this evening people were indifferent.

Especially as none of them had ever heard of the club. What was its purpose koheesti?

I guess it was pretty much a social club that met the first Friday of the month at different resorts or restaurants. There was a membership fee of 500 baht a year and each event cost close to the same (little higher for non members). Around 40-60 people turned up each time I was there. Some events had free food and drinks. Since the events were big PR events for the venue I'm not sure how much if anything they took from the club. Charity events that I witnessed were raffles. Buy tickets for 100 baht each for a chance to win donated prizes (dinners, free stays at resorts, etc). It was a nice change from my usual nights at the pub, playing pool or going to Soi Reggae and I met some really good people there. It's a shame to see it go. Just one less thing to do around the island and one less source of charity money for some needy kids.

If the idea was to help bright kids from poorer backgrounds achieve a better education then the authorities have made a mistake imo.

Still like to hear a more definitive answer on why it has gone though.
