Thanx for that P1P.
very informative, I never knew any of this, but you never know when you may need to know!!

Oh dear Lucy.
Looks like things are getting even worse for you .
i do admire Mick McCartht though. Some of his comments are priceless.
I think that after the Portsmouth game he said that he would have left early with the fans if he could.
the poor guy is on a hiding to nothing, but I suppose if Wigan and West Ham were doing badly then the Sunderland fans might expect no more, but the fact that other 2 promoted sides are doing SO WELL probably means that Mick's reign will shortly end. I find it incredible that Wigan and West Ham finished lower than you but are flying high. Some shrewd buys by their boss methinks. Stead, never rated him.
I fear that it is now a foregone conclusion that you are going down, at this point I would fancy Birmingham and Everton to join you, but I think there will be a 10-12 point gap with you firmly rooted at the bottom and relegated by March.
I don't thik that poor Mick will last much longer but knowing how passionate he is he should get out now before his health suffers, you can see the stress on his face every game, and I have never seen another Manager ever endure the pressure that he does. But he always faces the music, never gives excuses and wears his heart on his sleeve.
His players are consistantly letting him down, but there again you only have one good player Arca!
Sometimes being a "yo-yo" team has its benefits. Bolton were classic examples of this, but look at them now ! It will give you a chance to rebuild and overhall your squad.
I am not crowing. I support Reading and the way things are going it looks like we could go up with Sheff Utd, but I wont give us that much chance of staying up there, I look to Wigan as an inspiration, but they have a lot of very hard games coming up in the 11 days after the International break against, Man U, Arsenal and Liverpool so it will be tough for them to keep their amazing run going, but who knows!
As Jimmy G so famously said "Its a funny old game", you may put a run of 15 wins together and be in europe next year, but alas I doubt it.
Keep your pecker up and enjoy the season, you certainly enjoyed last year, so which is better?? Its an interesting conundrum.

Say what you like.
Where are the Ashes now ?
Not in Australia methinks !!!

I would strongly recommend the Grace Dental Clinic for the type of treatment you require
The number is 053 89 4568.
you need to make an appointment as far in advance as possible if you intend to use them

As far as the golf goes the Gymknana (spelt wrong I know, but thats how it should be spelt) Club offers very reasonably priced rounds, I think is probably the cheapest club in town. Only 9 holes but its OK

Looks like you know where you want to go already !!

Personally I have nothing but GOOD THINGS to say about Koh Chang.
I have stayed at KB Bungalows and Koh Chang resort and been impressed on both occassions. Never found the traffic a problem, have eaten some of the best food I have ever tasted at Invito's and really enjoyed myself at nights.
I am a firm Fan of Koh Chang
-
Ive been to both places at least twice.
my vote goes to Ko Chang. Lots more to do, some first class restaurants and good accomodation,just shades it for me. It was the first place I took my Wife when we first met, and I guess thats where we fell in Love. Hows that for Romance??
Have a great time wherver you decide to go

One of the funniest cartoons I ever saw was published when Alan Ball was Manager of City.
There was an ariel shot of Manchester highlighting the Stadium and the Job Centre and the caption read
"Spot The Ball"
Hilarious but I know its a bit
-
Thank God for that.
I thought you meant George Best, now that would have been a tradgedy.
are you on a wind up?
-
You would not have got good odds on Wigan staying up this year let alone challenging for a Champions League spot, everyone had them pinned to go down with Sunderland.
Well I think its brilliant and I hope they push Chelsea all the way, gives me hope that if Reading can get up this year we may have half a chance
-
Looks like you all had a great time Jockstar.
I am really sorry I could not make it.
Best of Luck to the two of you and I hope to see you again when you are next up this way.

Just make sure you open any boxes you buy from them within 14 days or you can kiss a replacement goodbye.
Oh and KEEP THE RECEIPT, even if it has HOMEPRO on it they won't change it if you lost or threw away the bin!!

The last time I looked in The Bangkok Post he was doing their Book Reviews. I dont know if this has changed in the last few weeks, but he was doing em last time I read em

Some very thought provoking posts guys.
Personally I fear for all our safety.
Muslims, Christians, Catholics, Bhuddists, et al.
Armagedon could be a short stroll away, I really hope that someone finds some answers to these issues
AND SOON, before its too late.

You could not get much more working class than Gazza. He was the first hero of Tyneside in the modern era. Not since Jackie milburn had anybody seen such talent.
Wasted in the end because of booze. He just could not cope with the fame and fortune.
He was Englands great hope of the 90's. I still love him to bits, but thats what he is in bits. I saw him play for Middlesborough at Reading about 8 years ago and the home fans would not get off his back, (this was after he had (alledgedly) asaulted his wife.
Best was a bit before my time of watching live footie, but the similarities are striking, both alcohol fuelled.
At least Paul Merson and Tony Adams pulled themselves out of the mire. the other two did not manage it. But for the later its still

Why on earth would you WANT to get Thai TV in the UK.?
Thats the one place I can go to escape it.
Its utter CR@P !!!

I just Love the Google related threads at the top of the topic

He had Matt Busby who was on a par with Ferguson, but with people like him and Gazza is another, they just could not find away to balance the sudden fame and fortune.
Most players today can, but there will always be a few that can't. It is an Alcoholics trait to ruin everything that is good in their life for "Just one more" I feel sorry for him and fearhe will not find real "Peace" until he has shuffled off this mortal coil.
I feel really sorry for him, but even if he gets throgh this there will be another scandal waiting round the corner.
He just can't help himself

I think its great to see teams like Charlton, Bolton & even Spurs occupying the Champions League births at the moment. OK I wont get carried away and think that their runs will continue, but its great to see RIGHT NOW!
I pedicted Everton to go down and I still hold with the notion
-
Good to see we are all United on one matter then.
No Surrender to Terroism!!!
Agreed!
How do you define terrorism? Would it include the abduction and murder of activist lawyers or the heartless treatment of prisoners(mostly innocent one presumes) resulting in hundreds of deaths?I have no doubt there are highly undesirable outsiders seeking to stir up trouble in the South, but the severity of the current problems can be largely be credited to decades of neglect, arrogance and incompetence on the part of a succession of Bangkok based administrations.
Boris old chap, I really think you are missing the point of my post. There is not much I can personally do about kidnappings, individual politically motivated murders etc, The point is what would us Farangs do if our life/families felt threatened?
A great proportion of TV Members live here, its where we call HOME now, have families that we care about. Would you put your Children in harms way if yu had a choice?
On the post about the Bali Bombings yesterday a few have already said that they were planning a trip there but won't be going now because of the fear of terroists.
Nothing wrong with that IMHO, that is excersing caution

well I followed Ajarn's advice and used him. I must say that I was thouroughly impressed. He came the day I called him and had finished everything very satisfactorily the next day and only charged me about 600 Baht labour for him and his apprentice for one and a half days work.
Who says Thai workmanship is poor ? Err well know from my own experience a great deal of it is, but not Prathom, he's the exception
